Try using
preferred_aps=("smth"), instead of
essid_wlan0="smth"
Please try Markos' suggestion. Reopen this bug if it still doesn't work. (In reply to comment #2) > Please try Markos' suggestion. Reopen this bug if it still doesn't work. I probably should've mentioned that I already tried it, I tried using "ESSID" instead of "essid" too, tried adhoc_essid_wlan0 as well. Please post your "emerge --info".

It says: wlan0 ESSID:"" Is there any hope that this bug will get fixed? I think that this is happening because mode_wlan0="ad-hoc" doesn't do anything. If I set it manually and the restart the interface, everything gets set correctly, so the mode_wlan0 not working must be the obstacle. Any ideas on how to fix this? it probably defaults to wpa supplicant rather than iwconfig, so you can try forcing modules Please upgrade your system to openrc/baselayout-2. If this issue still exists after you upgrade, please re-open this bug and let us know so we can address it in openrc. (In reply to comment #9) > it probably defaults to wpa supplicant rather than iwconfig, so you can try > forcing modules The line ``modules=("iwconfig")`` didn't help. you didnt say whether you're using openrc (In reply to comment #12) > you didnt say whether you're using openrc Well I'm reporting a bug in sys-apps/baselayout-1 so no, I'm not. the response in comment #10 hasnt changed (In reply to comment #14) > the response in comment #10 hasnt changed Well if noone is going to fix it, why bother supporting or using it at all? as comment #10 already said, this should work in openrc. we're focusing on stabilizing openrc instead of backporting code that is effectively dead. Well if somebody else is reluctant to upgrading to an ~arch package, here is a script I wrote that just works(tm): ifconfig wlan0 up iwconfig wlan0 mode ad-hoc iwconfig wlan0 essid myessid ifconfig wlan0 192.168.2.254 netmask 255.255.255.0 |
