|

Hi everyone!
I decided last week, after a year of no updtes, to upgrade to gnome 3.10 and use systemd.
I don't have an internet connection anymore.
The driver wl (broadcom-43327) works fine and wpa_supplicant starts, but no luck.
I use predictables interface names (wlp3s0).
i noticed, when i try
Code: | systemctl enable wpa_supplicant@wlp3s0.service |
i get something of creating a symlink with wpa_supplicant@wlan0.service.
I think that's the problem. How do i switch to predictable interface names in systemd? |

the easy way would be to emerge networkmanager and enable it as a service
the gnome3/systemd combo defaults that way _________________ Defund the FCC. |

There are lots of posts on this about networkmanager - be aware that it must be the only application managing the network interfaces and nothing else should interrupt it.
It works with dhclient or dhcpcd. I had loads of problems getting this to work properly with Wifi and WPA_Supplicant, so I fell back to uninstalling network manager and using wpa_supplicant on its own. _________________ It said "Requires Windows XP or better"
So I installed gentoo. |
