Wireless Network Status #39

Closed niklas closed 12 years ago

niklas commented 12 years ago

Show ESSID of connected wireless network in network status. Could not detect wired network because my ifconfig output differs. Device name and ESSID are devided by '∿'

iwconfig(1) is at /usr/sbin/iwconfig on my system (Arch Linux). Is it really at /sbin on yours?

niklas commented 12 years ago

sadly, it is (see http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/amd64/wireless-tools/filelist). Do we need to specify the full path?

sunaku commented 12 years ago

Full path isn't necessary if you have those dirs in your $PATH. Mine contains:

/usr/local/bin
/usr/bin
/bin
/usr/local/sbin
/usr/sbin
/sbin

Fixed in 882e0fc1ea5a30b79b4e4d60c19b0b61f65eeee4. Either set your $PATH or specify the i?config_bin parameters in your barlet config.
