I was excited to try out the new graphical installer, but ran into a bug while setting up WiFi. I've uploaded photos of the stacktrace for you to take a look at. This is running on a Dell Inspiron 11 3000 series. https://imgur.com/a/qcwgNXr Also, upon clicking "OK" I'm taken back to the original menu of the installer. Going through the choices again, the installer cannot detect a hard drive as it could before. Let me know if I can help in any way or if you need more information. -- *Hugo Saavedra* Listen Systems <http://listen.systems> c: 818-356-6664 <http://listen.systems> [-- Attachment #2: Type: text/html, Size: 1978 bytes --] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

I’ve tried “connmanctl services xyz” on the bare metal with an actual WiFi device. For me there’s always a “Name = something” property, and the “something” appears to be the SSID of the access point. Could it be that the access point does not advertise an SSID, and thus its “Name” property is the empty string or is missing altogether? It could be that changing the ‘parse-keys’ regexp as shown below would solve the problem for cases where “connmanctl services xyz” writes literally: Name = WDYT, Mathieu? Hugo, would it be an option for you to (1) boot the installation image, and (2) to grab the output of this command: for s in $(connmanctl services | cut -c 25- | grep wifi) ; do connmanctl service $s ; done Note that it will provide information about the WiFi networks around you, which you may or may not want to share publicly.

I tried to reproduce that in a VM by running hostapd and using the neat ‘mac80211_hwsim’ kernel module. However, hostapd’s config file doesn’t allow empty SSIDs. So I set the SSID to “ ” (a single space), but that’s correctly handled by the installer. Ludo’. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
