Hi Garry,

It's probably a little late (I'm not reading the Yocto mailing lists
very often now) but sometime ago I ran out of space myself and I wrote
this script that I sent out on oe-core mailing list. It did the job for
me. For some reason it didn't make it in master but maybe you find it
useful.

I didn't test it since then though. Maybe things changed, I don't know.
Give it a try if you wish. If you want to play safe, I recommend making
a copy of your downloads directory (if you have space left). :)

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply it was "old" and therefore should be
avoided, I meant to point out that it was something that was released
before the switch to gcc5 by default :-)

I think the next release will be 2.0. Whether or not it is stable enough
is something you will have to evaluate for yourself :-) I'm rather
certain this issue is already fixed in master, therefore it should be
available for the next release.

Did you really mean to reply personally? I've re-CC'ed the list, hope
you don't mind.

Hello all,I am using a Wi-Pi wireless adapter.?
My image has the following packages installed.
wpa-supplicant-2.4-r0.cortexa7hf_vfp_vfpv4_neon
wpa-supplicant-cli-2.4-r0.cortexa7hf_vfp_vfpv4_neon
wpa-supplicant-dev-2.4-r0.cortexa7hf_vfp_vfpv4_neon
wpa-supplicant-doc-2.4-r0.cortexa7hf_vfp_vfpv4_neon
wpa-supplicant-passphrase-2.4-r0.cortexa7hf_vfp_vfpv4_neon
Do I need any additional packages?
My wired eth0 works okay.
Which document has the most current information on setting up wireless networking?From the information at 
 http://trac.gateworks.com/wiki/Yocto/Wireless

I modified my /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf as below without success.
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0
update_config=1

network={
??????? scan_ssid=1
??????? ssid="myssid"
??????? psk="mypsk"
??????? proto=WPA
??????? key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
}Below is the results I get when I run iwconfig.
iwconfig 
wlan0???? IEEE 802.11bgn? ESSID:off/any? 
????????? Mode:Managed? Access Point: Not-Associated?? Tx-Power=0 dBm?? 
????????? Retry short limit:7?? RTS thr:off?? Fragment thr:off
????????? Encryption key:off
????????? Power Management:off
????????? 
lo??????? no wireless extensions.

eth0????? no wireless extensions.
Thanks in advance.? Any help is appreciated.

Try modifying /etc/network/interfaces like this:

https://github.com/EttusResearch/meta-ettus/commit/da86e76d116798e386d073a18453aabb6179a09a#diff-063964fa6e41065c7868b13b1b1644eaR11

it seems wireless extensions are deprecated and you should use the
nl80211 driver now.

What `wpa_cli stat' returns?
