That could be the reason why Wifi not working on lasts Batocera bêta builds for Rpi4.
dont think so, rpi is using broadcomm chipsets, this is about realtek chipsets. And this issue was always there not something new.
but easy to verify with.
ip link set dev wlan0 up
dmesg
and see if any firmware not found error is raised in dmesg
thanks for the clear issue @hbiyik fixed - https://github.com/batocera-linux/batocera.linux/pull/5796
please close
Hello,
Thanks for such a nice project. I was using
Nexbox a95x b7n
device which uses rtl8723bs wifi chipset. Wifi was not working with Batocera and i noticed that the firmware binary was actually in/lib/firmware/rtlwifi
directory but was missing a symbolic link fromrtl8723bs_nic.bin
tortl8723bu_nic.bin
I tested and verified that device now works correctly with wifi + bt after manually creating smylinks
The structure of symbolic links can also be verified with debian firmware-realtek package:
I tested this v32, but as far as i can see from the master branch it is the same in master as well.
Below is the obvious dmesg output when symlinks are missing
