Query 1 of 2 :-)
Hi guys, I’ve installed Haiku A4 to a partition on my system, shared with Puppy Linux. In Puppy I connect via Broadcom driver as per:
10:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01
2.6.33.2 SMP mod_unload modversions 486
But I can’t get Haiku to see my wireless SSID or use the broadcom driver.
Using a network cable, I got online and installed the wifi drivers, but unfortunately Haiku doesn’t give any indication it can see my WPA2 encrypted network.
The network status is showing a path I don’t recognise and gives no SSID list. I tried a bit of command line work and when I enter the path as shown in network status the message says it is “Not a wlan device!”.
I then played around with some navigation and found a folder with the broadcom drivers and I get a message saying something like:
“Could not open [path] as kernal.so is missing”
Sorry I can’t be precise but I’m using Puppy to connect and it can’t open the Haiku partition. (Haiku can read but not write to the Puppy partition)
So what is my issue? Am I unfortubate enough to be using a broadcomm driver that is not supported or is there something else I need to do?
So many thanks.
