>dhcpcd segfaults every time i connect to my router. what do?

>>58132808
Donald going in deep as fuck. Why u do dis?

>>58133137
ill tell you if you fix my wifi connection

>>58132808
connect Ethernet, # pacman -Syyu

>>58132808
use networkmanager?

>>58133302
that's what i was using originally and it still wouldn't connect/ping anything. i only dmesg'd it when i enabled netctl instead but i think it's the same issue.

>>58133318
os? wifi or ethernet?

>>58133329
arch. ethernet is fine but wifi is just not working. this is what i get.

>>58133345
did you have netctl and networkmanager both enabled?

also is wifi security WPA2 personal?

>>58133345
no i disabled networkmanager using a systemctl command before enabling netctl.

im not sure.

>>58133375
try connecting using a command called nmtui

do you have to input just a password? or do you have to input username/password?

>>58133387
using wifi-menu i had to put in username and password.

>>58133412
ooh WPA2 Enterprise, wifi security that requires a username and password

I've never gotten wpa2 enterprise to work on arch; had to use Ubuntu/similar instead.

Contact your university/work to see if anyone can help set up. Probably everyone will say use Windows

if you want to read up, here's the relevant wiki page: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wireless_network_configuration#WPA2_Enterprise

>>58133434
that's odd, this is my personal wifi network. it does remember it when i put it in once sorry for not clarifying. same with networkmanager. thing is, with netctl i don't get an indication in i3status that i actually connected, but with networkmanager i do. both still can't connect to the internet though; whether i ping google or even the router/desktop i get nothing.

>>58133449
Standard troubleshooting: have you tried restarting computer? Wifi works on other devices?

Could you take a picture of you in wifi-menu where you input username and password?

here. i think dhcpcd is the real culprit.

>>58132808
Try `busybox udhcpc`, I use it and it always works for me (unlike dhcpcd).

>setting up Arch is easy!
>doesn't even have a working dhcp client in the official repos

>>58136649
what did you expect from a distro that no-one anywhere uses in a professional or enterprise environment? it's an even worse hipster distro than gentoo.

An alternative is that you could just assign a static ip (ie like 192.168.0.2) to the system, and bypass dhcpcd altogether.

>>58133738
Dont use dhcpcd and netctl at the same time.
Disable dhcpcd.service and [email protected].

Use wifi-menu -o to set up your wifi.

Screenshotting this thread for my Arch masterrace folder

>>58135913
but why is dhcpcd not working?

>>58136649
>OP is an idiot
>attempts to use netctl and dhcpcd at the same time
>somehow it's the distro's fault

>>58139081
what, do you just use dhcpcd without netctl or vice versa? how is that less stupid?

>>58139128
I use netctl on my laptop and dhcpcd on my desktop, just don't try to use both at the same time because they will obviously conflict.

>>58139128
You use EITHER, but not BOTH. You all are some goddamn retards

>>58139148
why does arch-anywhere allow you to install both then? in fact it reccomends it.

i thought it adheres to the KISS philosophy; keep it software, sexy.

>>58139190
Because dhcpcd is a requirement of netctl? Is there a single person on this board that has a single fuck what they're doing?

>it's a requirement
>you can't run both

w-what

>>58139190
To clarify (again) if you want to USE netctl, you ONLY use netctl, and let it manage dhcpcd.

>>58139250
what do you mean let it manage dhcpcd? is that not what i have going on here? all i did was netctl up.

>>58139246
As in netctl uses dhcpcd. So if you want netctl to work, YOU need to leave dhcpcd alone, and let netctl use dhcpcd on its own.

>>58139269
ok let me explain to you what i did here.

all i did was disable nm which i had, and enabled/started netctl and signed into wifi-menu. how did i interfere with dhcpcd??????????

>>58139283
Uninstall NM, and reboot. After that, run wifi-menu

>>58139367
uninstalled NM, rebooted, ran wifi-menu and got this. still can't ping google or anything.

>>58139609
Reboot your router, your internet is down

>>58139779
Also, Opie, I reccomend connman instead of netctl

>>58139779
>>58139837
reboot my router? why? im using the same router right now to connect my nets to my phone.

also what's conman like?

What settings do you have in wifi-menu

>>58140192
other than w/e it comes with by default i just selected my ssid and entered my password. it's wpa.

>>58133434
I've got it working perfectly with Networkmanager on Arch. You could be doing something wrong or maybe you're missing optional dependancy's (don't know if there even are any). You could try again.

Just install Antergos, it sets up all that low level shit for you.

>>58140341
can i install i3 with it

>>58140394
Why not?

>>58140415
i mean can i do it without uninstalling XFCEDEPELELE first.

>>58140394
You can install i3 on fucking anything

>>58140341
it's not even low level shit. i just ran wifi-menu. how can this OS be so JUST?

>>58140435
I've never used the "Base Install" option which is what you want but I imagine it configures your network as well.

>>58140485
It designed to have almost nothing preconfigured for you, it's for people who have too much time on their hands to feel like they're doing something productive.

>>58140510
It's designed to be as low maintenance as possible for the distro maintainers. That means users have to know what they're doing, because maintainers aren't going to do shit for them.

>>58140540
The end result is still the same, only people who have too much time on their hands bother with it.

netctl us utter garbage
