Hi!
Im new in Linux and now i have instaled Slackware. Unfortully, i cant log in in my wifi to update mine VGA and start the graphic mode - at least, was my probem with Debian.
I have tried some guides, but all of then apoint to the same thing - like to use wicd or wpa_supplicant- and i cant understand my problem.

Sorry for my english.

My Laptop is an Acer Aspire 5 A515-51G - 58VH. I will post soon the lspci output here, I totally forgot to write. My PC is in dual boot with Win10, and win10 knows the Qualcoom Atheros QCA9377 and the Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller - network adapter

I cant put the photo of the problem, but he says he "could not set interface 'p2p-dev-win0' Up". He can connect with my WIFI, but he, in the next line, says: 'CTRL-EVENT-DISCONECTED bssid: (number he associeted in the last line) reason = 3 locally_generated=1 '


Thx for the help !

Post output of ifconfig -a. It looks like you don't have p2p-dev-win0 interface that wpa_supplicant is trying to use. You might have luck with wlan0.

The easiest thing to do would be to switch to Network Manager. To do that, you'd first want to reset your networking by running netconfig and picking loopback. Then run netconfig again and select Network Manager. For the first time, you'll either need to reboot or start Network Manager manually (/etc/rc.d/rc.networkmanager start).

Once that is done, you should be able to open up the wireless icon in your tray or run nmcli from the command line to be able to connect to your wireless network.

wicd is not included in a full install of Slackware and if you want it (it's an alternative to Network Manager) you'd need to install it out of the extra/ directory on your install media or favorite mirror. wpa_supplicant can be used if you want to connect to a network without using wicd or Network Manager. It does take some more effort to do it that way.

Thx! Solve my problem

What exactly did you do to solve your problem? Once you post back, please mark the thread as solved as well.

I had followed that: run netconfig and select Network Manager

After, i followed that site: https://nullr0ute.com/2016/09/connec...nd-line-nmcli/
or: # nmcli radio ( show if ur wifi is enable or not)
# nmcli device wifi rescan
# nmcli device wifi list
# nmcli -ask device wifi connect SSID-Name //(In C, after // is for comments, in terminal code i dont know yet what to use... but.. i think
'nmcli -ask wifi connect WIFI_Name' works too)
In the next line will ask your password
U are online :)

You can also accomplish the same thing with "nmtui" if you are using network manager. I personally find nmtui to be more functional for people and nmcli better in a shell script. Maybe it is just me, but nmcli has some cryptic command options that I cannot ever remember.
