PC v18.04.20 Wifi/Bluetooth issue

[NeeeeB]

lol you beat me to it !!

[halathos]

@substring Still no luck on this. Wifi is not populating and Bluetooth cant find anything I have updated my dmesg in the dropbox link but just in case. It seems to have taken the files and used them properly. I feel like I'm missing something. https://www.dropbox.com/s/j10kdm6thvdjgll/dmesg.txt?dl=0

[halathos]

Well update on this, WiFi disable and delete stored values from my manual attempt and reboot and re enable got it working. Bluetooth although disabled and re enabled through recalbox.conf with reboot and removal of ../system/bluetooth/.. to make sure no settings were left over.

@halathos so ? Success or not ?

[halathos]

@substring no after a few reboots the wifi takes a while to initialize and bluetooth will not find anything. even external has stopped finding anything. updated the demsg just above. i'm going to continue to plug away at it. if you have any ideas it would be great

[Substring]

@halathos it dies say the wifi is ok
For bt, can you type hciconfig and give me the output ?

[halathos]

@substring no output without the dongle. with the dongle I get
hci0: Type: BR/EDR Bus: USB
BD Address: 5C:F3:70:85:88:98 ACL MTU: 1021:8 SCO MTU: 64:1
DOWN
RX bytes:6760 acl:0 sco:0 events:820 errors:0
TX bytes:72686 acl:0 sco:0 commands:818 errors:0

Still no pairing. (No controllers found)
FYI these are known working controllers even with this dongle.
My apologies for the late response. Work life catches up once in a while

[Substring]

@halathos not pairing because it's down. Weird, there is a udev rule that should bring hci0 up

[halathos]

@substring if you think of anything I'll make sure to test. I thank you for the assistance.

[halathos]

@substring tried to bring it up manually and a vague error
""#hciconfig hci0 up
Can't init device hci0: Invalid request code (56)

lsmod gives me the following

@halathos no idea really, except finding other drivers
