Hello All:
I have a Samsung NP-N140 with a RTL8192E card and I am having difficulty
with it. I am running -current because if I read the man pages correctly,
only 12-Current has the driver in rtwn (from the rtwn(4) man page). So, I
built a custom kernel per the man pages:
#
# MYKERNEL -- Custom Kernel for FreeBSD/i386
#
# Originally created for 12.0 Current 20180605 r334665
#
include GENERIC
ident MYKERNEL
# Custom Lines for the Samsung NP-N140
device rtwn # Required for Wireless
device rtwnfw # Required for Wireless
device rtwn_pci # Required for Wireless
and I have a statement in /boot/loader.conf
legal.realtek.license_ack=1
There are no error messages in dmesg pertaining to it that I see, however,
pciconf -lv shows there is no driver bound to it
...
none1@pci0:2:0:0: class=0x028000 card=0x7160144f chip=0x819210ec
rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.'
device = 'RTL8192E/RTL8192SE Wireless LAN Controller'
class = network
I realize this is probably a lack of google capabilities so I do apologize
in advance, but any thoughts or suggestions to point me in the right
direction?
Stephen
