Hi ,
I just reinstalled a 1.9 alpine linux on a alix board . Works perfectly . But only the wifi config stuff is missing
Where are all the wonderful packages for making a wifi access point with emebbeded hardware (soekris , alix and more ? )
Or maybe I didn't find it in the docs .
Can someone make me see the light ?
Thanks in advance

I think you are the first to ask for them. (well i think there was
someone else asking for hostapd but we didnt have his wifi drivers at
that point)

You could file a package request on http://bugs.alpinelinux.org with a
package description and url to source package. Or at least tell what
specific packages you are interested in. .. and help us test it after.

I have looked over the wpa_supplicant and wireless-tools in testing and
created a hostapd package.
Please tell us if its working, what needs to be fixed or error messages.
You need to add edge/packages/testing and possibly edge/packages/x11
repositories.
Thanks!
