[opensuse-arm] Support for Wi-Fi and bluetooth on Raspberry Pi 3
After installation of the openSUSE Tumbleweed image for the Raspberry Pi 3 I do not see the Wi-Fi and the Bluetooth devices with the command lsusb. I found the firmware needs to be updated. Is anybody working on that? I am also trying to find out what psi-update is doing, but mentioned was it is for kernel 5.0. -- fr.gr. member openSUSE Freek de Kruijf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner@opensuse.org

Finally I have a wlan0 device listed on the command "ip a". I got the command rpi-update running and it shows an up-to-date firmware for the RPi3, at least for the boot process. I have doubts about the necessity of running this command. Further searching I found that two files are missing in /lib/firmware/brcm/ namely brcmfmac43430-sdio.txt and brcmfmac43430-sdio.bin After getting these files in place I now have a wlan0 visible. Using "yast network" I add a wireless device and specified nl80211 as the driver module. Further configuring the device now gives me a working Wi-Fi interface. However getting the bluetooth interface working fails. -- fr.gr. member openSUSE Freek de Kruijf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner@opensuse.org

Awesome, thanks for finding that out! Do you think you could update the rpi firmware package to include them?

Hm, I read about some bug fixes (also with mmc) with newer firmware. Alex -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner@opensuse.org
Hi *,

This has nothing to do with the rpi firmware package, it was blacklisted in the JeOS image. Fixed now. Greetings, Dirk -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner@opensuse.org
