**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Fri May 20 03:00:00 2011 May 20 15:16:58 <`antonio`> Hi, I followed the instruction on the wiki to enable wifi using WPA and /etc/network/interfaces May 20 15:17:37 <`antonio`> but when I run ifdown eth0 or ifup eth0 I get this May 20 15:17:47 <`antonio`> ifdown: unknown address type "inet" May 20 15:17:56 <`antonio`> what could possibly be ? May 20 15:23:02 how look your /etc/network/interfaces May 20 15:23:14 öööhm can you (no)paste it in here? May 20 15:28:13 <`antonio`> http://pastebin.com/baa6BEGt May 20 15:28:24 <`antonio`> ShenLong, is the same of the wiki May 20 15:29:32 <`antonio`> am I missing some drivers or application? May 20 15:32:42 is that everything? May 20 15:33:28 <`antonio`> yep May 20 15:34:23 hmmm May 20 15:34:40 <`antonio`> basically I am building my own image trying to keep it as much lighter as possible May 20 15:35:23 `antonio`: okay. May 20 15:35:40 But you have to add this to your interfaces May 20 15:35:43 auto lo May 20 15:35:43 iface lo inet loopback May 20 15:36:02 (before eth0) May 20 15:36:12 <`antonio`> ok May 20 15:37:22 and this if you would to work over usb0 (it works as an wired network interface) ( http://paste.pocoo.org/show/392298/ ) May 20 15:38:09 Off course you can use any other configuration for usb0 you want, (e.g. dhcp configuration or something) May 20 15:39:03 <`antonio`> ShenLong, thanks May 20 15:39:10 <`antonio`> yes I got that working fine May 20 15:39:21 <`antonio`> I mean the wired network interface May 20 15:41:15 <`antonio`> nothing has changes, still the same error May 20 15:43:24 okay, know i should have a look at your wpa_supplicant.conf May 20 15:44:23 <`antonio`> another strange thing is that sometimes I cannot do ifconfig eth0 up May 20 15:44:34 <`antonio`> I got this: ifconfig: SIOCGIFFLAGS: No such device May 20 15:44:40 <`antonio`> so i have to reboot it May 20 15:46:10 <`antonio`> this is the wpa_supplicant.conf May 20 15:46:11 <`antonio`> http://pastebin.com/P5mkACqa May 20 15:54:57 you maybe missing some kernel module? May 20 15:55:23 hmmm... i cant detect any errors... it might be possible that you have to remove the proto, pairwise and the group Parameter. May 20 15:55:42 And add them before the network={}: May 20 15:55:47 ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant ctrl_interface_group=0 eapol_version=1 fast_reauth=1 May 20 15:55:51 ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant May 20 15:55:51 ctrl_interface_group=0 May 20 15:55:51 eapol_version=1 May 20 15:55:51 fast_reauth=1 May 20 15:55:52 <`antonio`> DocScrutinizer, you know exactly what kernel modules i eed? May 20 15:56:01 soo May 20 15:56:05 sorry, no May 20 15:56:33 <`antonio`> ShenLong, ok May 20 16:00:19 <`antonio`> ShenLong, nothing yet. May 20 16:00:40 <`antonio`> I will try to add more kernel modules and see how that goes. May 20 16:00:53 <`antonio`> thanks for your help guys May 20 16:05:19 sorry... i dont know whats wrong. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat May 21 02:59:58 2011
