What we want to do for the next linaro release 11.09 is have working
USB wifi support out of the box on beagle/beagle xm with the developer

Tho you won't have to twist my arm hard at all to include BT in that
goal as well Tony :-)

We like to keep the developer image as small as possible so the fun
part is keeping this to the minimal number of packages to make it
work.

For wifi I BELIEVE we just need to add wireless-tools.

I have tested this with BBC4/USB wireless adapter with nano 11.08 - which does not have wireless-tools installed. I installed it but was not able to get the wlan to work.  Also tested with BBC4 and Ubuntu desktop 11.08, all the tools were there but it does not work "out of the box". The usb wlan is a Linksys/Cisco WUSB54GS.

I'll try to get it working tomorrow afternoon - or feel free to tell me exactly what to test and I'll make it happen.



WIFI without wpasupplicant is really incomplete in my terms. I don't think you get around including that if you want to claim wifi support.
