Reply To: Startx no longer works?

Without StartX I am stuck with setting up wifi.

Dongle plugged in:

pi@retropie ~ $ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0424:9514 Standard Microsystems Corp.
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0424:ec00 Standard Microsystems Corp.
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 7392:7811 Edimax Technology Co., Ltd EW-7811Un 802.11n Wireless Adapter [Realtek RTL8188CUS]
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 1997:2433
Bus 001 Device 006: ID 045e:028e Microsoft Corp. Xbox360 Controller

And then, Interfaces screen:

auto wlan0

iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet dhcp

allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet manual
wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
iface default inet dhcp

Next Config file:

ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=1

network={
ssid=”SKYC****”
psk=”********”
proto=RSN
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
pairwise=CCMP
auth_alg=OPEN
}

It seems from the instructions I have done it all right but its still not working:

wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 80:1f:02:b3:2a:4e
UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:2 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:1758 (1.7 KiB) TX bytes:940 (940.0 B)

Any suggestions of where I have gone wrong?
