This file is created automatically by the system. IT does not have a MAC address. Is it correct?

what is chance your still using wpa_supplicant and it was updated in the last few days? It is sad to read that you have problems with the software. The situation seems to be a bit more complicate and requires some analysis. We can not help you efficiently via bug tracker. The bug tracker aims rather on specific problems in .ebuilds and less on individual systems. I have had very good experience on the gentoo IRC [1] with questions like this. Of course there are also forums and mailing lists [2,3]. I hope you understand, that I will close the bug here therefore and wish you good luck on one of the mentioned channels [4]. Please reopen the ticket in order to provide an indication for an specific error in an ebuild or any gentoo related product. [1] https://www.gentoo.org/get-involved/irc-channels/ [2] https://forums.gentoo.org/ [3] https://www.gentoo.org/get-involved/mailing-lists/all-lists.html [4] https://www.gentoo.org/support/ FYI: The wifi-working laptop (Macbook air) runs kernel 4.14.83 The two wifi-failing laptops (Lenovo, Dell) were running with kernel 4.19.27-r1 After downgrading them to 4.14.83, Wifi works fine on both of them. So, this looks like a bug involving wpa_supplicant, NetworkManager and the kernel. As was pointed out earlier, this is not a support forum. When you do find an actual bug and want to report it, then bugs.gentoo.org is the correct place to do that. Until you find a bug, reporting a vague problem here rarely results in a particular, local solution, but reporting specific bugs usually does. |
