Hm... I had no problems with webkit-gtk? Please download this archive. It contains MLO, u-boot.img, systemd-GNOME-image, modules. The archive contains fresh files without any of my configurations, but includes the mac address patch.

Ok, I'm back. And after a few days of battling bitbake recipes I'm more than happy to accept your very gracious offer of a pre-built image. I can't seem to get around this webkit-gtk error I get during the build.

At your convenience, of course.

Nope. You've been more than helpful. I'll follow your posts and see where I end up. Thanks again.

I built my own image from scratch as described here. I'll try to share my image tomorrow if you want?

Thanks for the response. Are you using a prebuilt image (if so, can you point me to the one you used)?

My kernel version is 3.2.28. Did you try to connect via gnome? There is a small network icon beside the clock.

My router is secured with WPA and authentication works for me. I hope we'll find the problem

Greetings! I've been battling this same wifi issue (with the same dongle) for a while on my XM. If I may ask, which kernel are you on? I've basically followed the same strings you have and keep running into issues. Most notably being on 3.2.28 seems to have an issue with WEP and WPA authentication (ie, if I turn off encryption on my router everything works fine). I followed your instructions perfectly and met with the same result. I can connect to the router, but authentication fails. Just trying to see what IS different about our setups.
