**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Dec 08 03:00:19 2015 Dec 08 16:29:59 hi everyone Dec 08 16:30:25 how can I connect to a wifi with wpa without installing lubuntu, xubuntu etc? Dec 08 16:30:59 regum: install wpasupplicant Dec 08 16:31:21 or use nmcli Dec 08 16:31:24 rbasak, is that the only way? I tried that Dec 08 16:31:26 it doens't work Dec 08 16:31:27 regum: then read /usr/share/doc/wpasupplicant/README.Debian.gz Dec 08 16:31:48 Ultimately everything else uses wpasupplicant anyway Dec 08 16:32:07 Raspbian as shipped by the Pi Foundation uses ifplugd and wpasupplicant together Dec 08 16:32:27 the question is: is it not working because you cant setup it up/use it, or is the hardware not working? Dec 08 16:32:33 Or you can just use wpa-* lines in e/tc/network/interfaces which is managed by the ifupdown plugin supplied by the wpasupplicant package. Dec 08 16:32:34 Or you can use Network Manager as k1l says. Dec 08 16:33:22 I think there's a fancy curses-style interface that doesn't need Network Manager as well, but I forget what that's called. Dec 08 16:33:37 The thing is that ubuntu arm finds a wifi dongle with lsusb Dec 08 16:33:46 rbasak: wicd? Dec 08 16:33:51 but when I install a gui to configure it, it stops detecting it Dec 08 16:34:14 regum: ah usb wifi dongle. so make sure you got the right modul loaded for the specific chip on it Dec 08 16:34:16 * ogra_ always just uses /etc/network/interfaces ... Dec 08 16:34:31 k1l: that might be it, thanksk. Dec 08 16:35:25 yes, it's not like lubuntu uninstalls the driver does nit? Dec 08 18:01:03 hello **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Dec 09 03:00:25 2015
