Wi-Fi does not work #28

Open dodedov opened 1 year ago

dodedov commented 1 year ago

Unfortunately, after installing version 12th Release - M114.0.5735.205, my Wi-Fi does not work.

I tried FydeOS 16.1 and OpenFyde r108 and there were no problems with Wi-Fi.

How can I help find the problem?

The latest version of Chrome OS Flex doesn't support my Wi-Fi

@dodedov I have been investigating the linux firmware and kernel configuration that fydeos uses. Currently, thoriumOS is using the kernel configuration of the reven overlay, which is the publicly available open source counterpart of the source code of chromeos flex. So this makes sense that chromeos flex and thoriumos both have the same wifi problem. However, ThoriumOS DOES use upstream linux firmware, to try to provide support for as many devices as possible.

Thanks for your feedback! Can something change in the future with the support of the device? Or will it depend on when chromeos expands support for other devices?
