ok. thanks

Chewitt,

how do enter the command to copy a zip file to the /firmware/brcm/ directory? and the command to extract after.

i found a set of instructions that matched the files in ubuntu device. i want to try it out.

thank you for putting with my requests.

i was looking at the ECS LIVA drivers site, and i see that there are 2 uart drivers, one of them appears to be bundled with wireless driver.

here is lshw run elevated. it contains wireless information

look what i found. Im going to put it right here. this is a file called efi-nvram.dat

in case you didnt know, the wireless card is connected to NGFF/M2. but you probably know that.

dSYh <<<<<<<<<<<<libreelec

gBWY <<====libreelec

i sent lsmod from both devices

liva_ubuntu_lsmod - Pastebin.com Ubuntu lsmod

aBcV libreElec lsmod

now i will install the driver below on my orignal device with mint linux or ubuntu to see if this driver functions

bcmwl-kernel-source_6.30.223.248+bdcom-0ubuntu0.2_amd64.deb

i never looked at the dmesg log on ubuntu before, as i said , i am new to linux. it has errors but it works. the log posted below is from an identical unit running 16.04 LTS

I am working on getting a ECS LIVA-MINI to work on LibreElec.

It works for the most part very well. Except for the wireless card which is an AzureWave AW-NB136NF - Broadcom BCM43231.

The device works in windows, it also has a linux driver and works in Ubuntu. I am asking how do I add a driver to LibreElec to make this device function. I neveeyed some help here.

I am very new to linux, and I need any instruction you can provide.

It looks like you have had this issue on some android devices and figured it out.

Thanks, your assistance is greatly appreciated.

since you guys are on the subject, how do you feel about Broadcom? specifically brcmfmac? i have a linux driver that works ubuntu. what can i do to make it work?

the device is an ECS LIVA-MINI mostly works with libreelec nicely, except for the broadcom driver.

is it possible to get this to work? without a lot of trouble?

THanks. and sorry
