2.2: Wifi NetworkManager dead #11

Closed zerowriter closed 4 months ago

zerowriter commented 4 months ago

Wifi list does not load on fresh installs. This is because the linux NetworkManager is not being loaded "inactive (dead)". I think maybe the pi imager bypasses the network manager entirely, kind of a strange issue.

You can check this with:

sudo systemctl status NetworkManager solved with:

sudo systemctl enable NetworkManager

maybe I will just add this to the setup steps... or I could have the applicaiton automatically run that command line if network manager is not loaded. Might be solve by going into raspi-config and doing the wireless setup there (not sure)

should be resolved in new 2.2 branch update.

the program looks to see if network manager is running. if not, it attempts to start it.
