What's the exact name of the Lubuntu image you have installed?
Have you connected a monitor and keyboard to your Cubietruck, or have
you logged in remotely via ssh? (Use Putty in Windows for remote login)
Has the Cubietruck booted OK, and have you logged in OK to the Lubuntu
desktop?
If you've got that far, open the LXTerminal with a double left mouse
click. A quick check to see if your WIFI hardware is recognised is to
use this command:
Code:
--------------------
sudo ifconfig wlan0
--------------------
If the output is "wlan0: error fetching interface information: Device
not found" then there's work to do. Otherwise you should be able to
proceed to configure your WIFI.
Navigate to Menu option perferences, and then Network Connections.
Clcik on the "Wireless Tab" and then on "Add". You will need to go
through the Wireless, Wireless Security and Ipv4 Settings tabs to enter
you SSID, security & password, and finally your IP settings (DHCP or
static). Once done you should have a working WIFI connection.
Back to the LXTerminal and type "aplay -L" at the prompt to see if your
in-built audio is recognized. Post command output here. I would expect
to see an entry that starts with iec958 in the command output.
