Yes, working fine here.
Re: Can the Pi with enonbase work with a wifi dongle?
Could you share how to make it work?

You are probably best off reading one of the many guides out there like this one:
http://www.raspberryshake.com/raspberry-pi-wireless-network-setup/
Or just try a google search for "raspberry pi wifi" or similar.
The Edimax dongle that I have is supported out of the box, so I had no setup problems with the driver etc, and as I am using it in ad-hoc mode, I didn't need to set any encryption keys.

Re: Can the Pi with enonbase work with a wifi dongle?
what do you do if your have Raspberry Model A (without ethernet)? update mode is not available and you have the last SD ready-to-use with "not using locking for read only lock file"??
I am quite noob, sorry if it is very easy.
Thanks
Re: Can the Pi with enonbase work with a wifi dongle?
Do you have a htmi monitor and keyboard and mouse connected to your pi? and can you load up a linux terminal on your pi?
what do you get when you type $ lsusb? as in the guide PhilThy linked?

Guys, with the new software there isn`t any problem: You must install Raspbian in a usb image from here
I recommend you install hdd image in a 4gb usb or higher in order to store all data received.
I think this problem could be "solved" now.
