Linux/WL1837MODCOM8I: Couldn't see or enable WLAN0 via command on TMDXEVM3358

Part Number: WL1837MODCOM8I
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMDXEVM3358,

Tool/software: Linux

Hi,

I recently loaded the TMDXEVM3358 SDK thru the provided SD card with latest SW from this link: http://software-dl.ti.com/processor-sdk-linux/esd/AM335X/latest/index_FDS.html

The OS booted well in the provided evaluation board and so does UART communication from my windows PC to the target device.

I managed to get into the Linux root but couldn't get to see the WLAN0 option when I keyed "ifconfig". Keying in "ifconfig wlan0 up" returned "ifconfig: SIOCGIFFLAGS: No such device". I inserted the WL1837MODCOM8I into the indicated slot below the development board. Am I missing something?

Thanks!

Best regards,
