| waheedi | any advice on getting the wifi up on ubuntu 18.04 arm 64 for pi 3? | 13:29 |
| waheedi | when i do ifconfig wlan0 up i get nothing | 13:30 |
| waheedi | ifconfig > has no wlan0 device | 13:30 |
| waheedi | thanks lotuspsychje :) | 13:30 |
| waheedi | brcmfmac: brcmf_fw_map_chip_to_name: using brcm/brcmfmac43455-sdio.bin for chip 0x004345(17221) rev 0x000006 from dmesg | 13:31 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: im not used to arm devices, but does your wifi device has driver loaded? | 13:31 |
| waheedi | usbcore: registered new interface driver brcmfmac | 13:31 |
| waheedi | lotuspsychje: how to check on that? | 13:32 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: sudo lshw -C network | 13:32 |
| lotuspsychje | at bottom should show driver= | 13:32 |
| waheedi | let me check | 13:32 |
| waheedi | lotuspsychje: anything other than lshw -C network | 13:33 |
| waheedi | as I'm blindly using my keyboard on that pi :) | 13:33 |
| waheedi | no screen no serial connection nor usb to ethernet | 13:34 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: can you ssh in there? | 13:35 |
| waheedi | no, i just login through the keyboard | 13:35 |
| waheedi | then I mount the sd card to my machine | 13:35 |
| waheedi | lotuspsychje: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/G3CrwC2syc/ | 13:36 |
| waheedi | DISABLED | 13:36 |
| lotuspsychje | yeah disabled seems not good heh | 13:37 |
| lotuspsychje | does the Pi have a wifi switch or something? | 13:37 |
| lotuspsychje | or uefi? | 13:38 |
| waheedi | no | 13:38 |
| waheedi | nothing that i'm aware of | 13:38 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: how about a bios? | 13:39 |
| waheedi | no | 13:40 |
| lotuspsychje | im a pi noob sorry :p | 13:40 |
| lotuspsychje | something blocks the card heh | 13:40 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: can you reach your dmesg in a pastebin? | 13:40 |
| waheedi | yeah i have it | 13:40 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: i can take a look | 13:41 |
| waheedi | lotuspsychje: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/vdbcMdHPsx/ | 13:41 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: thats a linaro image you are using | 13:42 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: they have their own channel on freenode, #linaro | 13:43 |
| waheedi | i got it from here http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases/bionic/release/ubuntu-18.04.2-preinstalled-server-arm64+raspi3.img.xz | 13:43 |
| lotuspsychje | hmm | 13:43 |
| waheedi | honestly this is the first time i hear of linaro | 13:44 |
| waheedi | :) | 13:44 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: same here lol, but thats what your kernel says in dmesg | 13:45 |
| lotuspsychje | and the channel exists.. | 13:45 |
| waheedi | yeah true | 13:45 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: did you try another broadcom driver yet from repos? | 13:46 |
| lotuspsychje | apt-cache search broadcom | 13:46 |
| waheedi | no internet on that machine | 13:47 |
| lotuspsychje | not handy that, as updates could fix your issue | 13:47 |
| waheedi | true | 13:47 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: maybe try the offline broadcom method, are you familliar? | 13:48 |
| waheedi | i tried to use the latest firmware for it | 13:48 |
| waheedi | but not the drivers | 13:48 |
| waheedi | lotuspsychje: any recommendations? | 13:48 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: check your install media source for the /pool directory there's the broadcom drivers you can install offline | 13:48 |
| waheedi | well, thats a preinstalled image | 13:49 |
| lotuspsychje | on an sd or so? | 13:49 |
| waheedi | yes | 13:49 |
| lotuspsychje | right.. | 13:49 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: check your software & sources perhaps, see if you can enable the install medium | 13:50 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: first tab, you see a dvd 18.04 bionic? | 13:53 |
| waheedi | lotuspsychje: no i don't see it | 13:53 |
| lotuspsychje | https://i.stack.imgur.com/DiL3n.png | 13:54 |
| lotuspsychje | looks like this, but with 18.04 at bottom | 13:54 |
| waheedi | no screen, no ssh, no vnc :) | 13:55 |
| waheedi | nothing | 13:55 |
| lotuspsychje | handy :p | 13:55 |
| waheedi | yaa | 13:55 |
| waheedi | maybe its worth it to buy a usb to ethernet plug | 13:56 |
| waheedi | :) | 13:56 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: i see in your dmesg there's a broadcom kernel line added | 13:57 |
| lotuspsychje | maybe thats where it goes wrong? | 13:57 |
| waheedi | lotuspsychje: which one? | 13:58 |
| waheedi | one more thing, why each time the machine reboots the date is gone | 14:01 |
| waheedi | i tried to set both date and hwdate for current time | 14:02 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: hmm, im reading things in forums like that firmware doesnt work by default, and some compile driver from source oO | 14:02 |
| waheedi | hmm | 14:02 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: this looks interesting: http://geekinlinux.blogspot.com/2018/06/raspberry-pi-3-b-no-wireless-interfaces.html | 14:03 |
| waheedi | on it | 14:03 |
| lotuspsychje | i think we can conclude your driver doesnt load/work right | 14:03 |
| waheedi | dmesg does not complain though? | 14:04 |
| waheedi | it says driver registered | 14:04 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: yes, i was browsing on: brcmfmac: brcmf_fw_map_chip_to_name: using brcm/brcmfmac43455-sdio.bin for chip 0x004345(17221) rev 0x000006 | 14:05 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: and as your card says disabled.. | 14:05 |
| lotuspsychje | a woring card should show chipset and driver= at bottom | 14:05 |
| waheedi | brcmfmac: brcmf_c_preinit_dcmds: Firmware version = wl0: Feb 27 2018 03:15:32 version 7.45.154 (r684107 CY) FWID 01-4fbe0b04 | 14:06 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: think you need to find a newer firmware, and do that dpkg trick | 14:07 |
| waheedi | this one from the GitHub repo | 14:07 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: you grabbed the firmware yourself? | 14:07 |
| waheedi | https://github.com/RPi-Distro/firmware-nonfree/tree/master/brcm | 14:07 |
| waheedi | yeah | 14:07 |
| waheedi | brcmfmac43455-sdio.bin brcmfmac43455-sdio.clm_blob and brcmfmac43455-sdio.txt | 14:08 |
| lotuspsychje | maybe thats why it doesnt work? | 14:08 |
| waheedi | it was the same before | 14:09 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: check the ubuntu archives, just like that forum does with debian | 14:10 |
| lotuspsychje | maybe there are useful firmwares in /pool too | 14:10 |
| waheedi | lotuspsychje: i followed this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/RaspberryPi#Wifi | 14:11 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: did you execute the wifi steps? | 14:13 |
| waheedi | yes | 14:13 |
| lotuspsychje | and reboot too? | 14:13 |
| waheedi | yeah hard shutdown :D | 14:16 |
| waheedi | looking at this: https://github.com/tomeshnet/mesh-orange/issues/47 | 14:16 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: try this perhaps http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian/pool/main/f/firmware-nonfree/ | 14:24 |
| lotuspsychje | thats the same archive as that forum, and try that dpkg trick | 14:24 |
| waheedi | what are the wireless-tools version for arm 64? | 15:54 |
| waheedi | iw and ifconfig are not found by networks-dispatcher | 15:54 |
| waheedi | networkd* | 15:54 |
| waheedi | i can't find arm here http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/w/wireless-tools/ | 15:55 |
| waheedi | i think this should work http://archive.raspbian.org/raspbian/pool/main/w/wireless-tools/ | 15:56 |
| lotuspsychje | waheedi: here some broadcoms: http://archive.raspbian.org/raspbian/pool/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/ | 16:06 |
| waheedi | thanks lotuspsychje | 16:06 |
| waheedi | well, I can see the wlan0 in ifconfig now | 16:21 |
| waheedi | :) | 16:21 |
| waheedi | i changed the default.target system to multi-user | 16:21 |
| waheedi | it seems I was booting in emergency before, and graphical target does not seem to make it, as the getty screen gets reset every 5/6 seconds | 16:22 |
| waheedi | still i'm not connected to the network, but the wlan0 device in ifconfig is bit relifeing | 16:23 |
| waheedi | finally I'm in :) | 19:18 |
