I really appreciate the help but everything I try is not working. Wifi isn't recognized at all. I tried a couple of different images in addition to lubuntu all with the same result. Something isn't working and I don't have the experience/knowledge to even know where to start. This has become a very frustrating effort and a huge waste of time. I think for now I will set the Cubietruck aside and wait to see if the CSOS project comes back in some form or another. Anybody want to buy a slightly used Cubietruck? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ rulof72's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4272 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101543 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
