How to install wifi driver in Mer

SmartQ7 Mer操作系统上 安装wifi 驱动 

 

To get wireless networking to work (from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Marvell8686Firmware):

1. Grab the firmware package from Marvell here: http://www.marvell.com/drivers/driverDisplay.do?driverId=203 and copy it to your computer.

2. Extract the downloaded zip file, then extract SD-8686-FEDORA26FC6-SYSKT-GPL-9.70.3.p24-26409.P45.tar within it. Extract the FwImage folder.

3. Inside there are two files, helper_sd.bin and sd8686.bin. Rename helper_sd.bin to sd8686_helper.bin and copy to your SD card

4. In Mer on SmartQ, open X-Terminal and:

$ sudo mount -t vfat /dev/mmcblk1p1 /media
(password is the one you used when installing)
$ sudo cp /media/sd8686.bin /lib/firmware/sd8686.bin
$ sudo cp /media/sd8686_helper.bin /lib/firmware/sd8686_helper.bin
$ sudo umount /media

5. Reboot.

If people want to be able to connect to WPA/WPA2 networks, they can use this fix:

patch for Q7

copy to a SD card

Mount SD like you did with the WiFi firmware (sd8686.bin and so on)

sudo mount -t vfat /dev/mmcblk1p1 /media

sudo dpkg -i kernel-smartq5-modules_2.6.24.7-smartq5-050509_all.deb

Reboot
