Wireless networking problem with Slackware 14.2 on a 2012 MacBook Pro
by tjallen from LinuxQuestions.org on (#55TCC)
I started with Slackware 1.1 in 1994 on my 486DX2 desktop and have run it ever since on my desktops and servers. I remember that it took me several days to get X to work and I was afraid that I'd destroy my expensive CRT monitor the whole time.
Now, many years later, since Apple will be leaving me stranded for an OS on my MacBook Pro, and since I've become less happy with the quality of macOS over the last several years, I've decided to jump to Slackware on my MacBook Pro (macbookpro9,2). I completely removed macOS. Slackware64 14.2 is installed and nearly all the hardware works, with the sole exception of the SD card reader, which is nearly the least important piece of hardware to me. I managed to get full disk encryption and sleep (suspend) working, as well as the Broadcom 4331 wifi card using the b43 driver.
I can connect at home to my wifi with WPA2-PSK, but I can't for the life of me connect to my employer's wifi. I've tried their public wifi with no encryption, their private wifi with WPA2-Enterprise (PEAP-MSCHAPV2), and the eduroam wifi, also with WPA2-PEAP-MSCHAPV2. None works. Yet I have two other laptops that came with Linux (a Librem 13, and a Pinebook Pro with Debian) and they both connect just fine to all wifi I've tried. So I know that I have the correct script for wpa_supplicant (though to be fair, these machines do have somewhat newer versions of all installed software). I'm running the 4.4.230 kernel that I've configured and compiled just for the MacBook Pro. (It doesn't work with the stock 4.4.14 kernel either.) I've tried many things, from making sure that crda knows I'm in the US, trying both wicd and NetworkManager, trying options on the b43 driver, to trying the broadcom-sta proprietary driver, all to no avail. The wl driver doesn't even see the access points, whereas the b43 driver does. It seems to be a big hint that I can't even connect to the unprotected wifi. There are no certificates needed for any of the access points. Networking is still a weak point of mine; I've spent tens of hours on this specific wifi problem and it's starting to frustrate me. Does anyone have any suggestions for something that I might have overlooked? I give a little bit of information below.
When I start wpa_supplicant:
Code:wpa_supplicant -d -i wlan0 -c /var/lib/wicd/configurations/c8b5ad5dc522 -Dnl80211,wextI get the following output (edited a bit for privacy):

Now, many years later, since Apple will be leaving me stranded for an OS on my MacBook Pro, and since I've become less happy with the quality of macOS over the last several years, I've decided to jump to Slackware on my MacBook Pro (macbookpro9,2). I completely removed macOS. Slackware64 14.2 is installed and nearly all the hardware works, with the sole exception of the SD card reader, which is nearly the least important piece of hardware to me. I managed to get full disk encryption and sleep (suspend) working, as well as the Broadcom 4331 wifi card using the b43 driver.
I can connect at home to my wifi with WPA2-PSK, but I can't for the life of me connect to my employer's wifi. I've tried their public wifi with no encryption, their private wifi with WPA2-Enterprise (PEAP-MSCHAPV2), and the eduroam wifi, also with WPA2-PEAP-MSCHAPV2. None works. Yet I have two other laptops that came with Linux (a Librem 13, and a Pinebook Pro with Debian) and they both connect just fine to all wifi I've tried. So I know that I have the correct script for wpa_supplicant (though to be fair, these machines do have somewhat newer versions of all installed software). I'm running the 4.4.230 kernel that I've configured and compiled just for the MacBook Pro. (It doesn't work with the stock 4.4.14 kernel either.) I've tried many things, from making sure that crda knows I'm in the US, trying both wicd and NetworkManager, trying options on the b43 driver, to trying the broadcom-sta proprietary driver, all to no avail. The wl driver doesn't even see the access points, whereas the b43 driver does. It seems to be a big hint that I can't even connect to the unprotected wifi. There are no certificates needed for any of the access points. Networking is still a weak point of mine; I've spent tens of hours on this specific wifi problem and it's starting to frustrate me. Does anyone have any suggestions for something that I might have overlooked? I give a little bit of information below.
When I start wpa_supplicant:
Code:wpa_supplicant -d -i wlan0 -c /var/lib/wicd/configurations/c8b5ad5dc522 -Dnl80211,wextI get the following output (edited a bit for privacy):
