I have not done any Fedora-arm testing for many weeks and am behind on
developments. Correct me if I missed something in past threads.
I am trying to make sense of this thread, though.
I am running the lastest F23 build
(Fedora-Xfce-armhfp-23-20150818-sda) and
no Wifi (or Bluetooth) flashing LEDs. On the serial console on
firstboot I
do see:

So one might THINK that the WiFi was seen.
But nothing shows for WiFi in NetworkManager.
Did you add a firmware? At the moment you need to get the firmware
from elsewhere as we don't have the ability to legally redistribute it
directly.
??? For some time, it seemed that Cubietruck working WiFi was based
on Hans getting things connected, not also a vendor's firmware. Plus
Clive's and Han's messages seem to say that they have gotten the WiFi
working with an nvram patch.
Right the actual firmware is part of linux-firmware, but you do need
a board specific nvram file and drop that under /lib/firmware, see
the dmesg output when the module loads.
Ouch. So all Cubietrucks, to run Fedora with WiFi support will have to
go through this step.
OK. I will look into what is involved and give it a go today. There was
your earlier message on this.
