Hello again, Something very strange happened. As I was logged in through SSH trying to understand this issue, suddenly my user was not recognized any more and I received a message close to something like: user 1000 unknown, who are you?
Then I logged out from ssh, tried to login again but was unable. The web interface disappeared as well. That lasted for long enough that I gave up trying. After an hour or two I tried again and was greeted again by the web interface. The weird thing is that it had changed. I had noticed that I did not have the 'Disks' module in the menu and now it is there. So I tried immediately to create a new network interface and now the web interface accepts the channel and BSSID settings. I am really curious as to what happened. It is great that things get solved by itself but at the same time I fear automation is out of control. Now I have followed the guide again and successfully created the first interface for ad-hoc wireless and I can see on my router that this interface is connected. But the bat0 interface did not get created in the process and the second step is thus not possible. I have done a lsmod and realized that no batman module was loaded. So I first checked with modprobe that it can be loaded. Then I added batman-adv in my /etc/modules-load.d/modules.conf and rebooted. I now have batman_adv loaded along with its dependencies. But trying again from scratch does not bring up bat0. If no suggestion is made I will try to bring it up manually. But I guess this will conflict with network manager. I need to understand how it is managed.
