Saved the previous SD card image, switched to LibreElec. Boots straight into Kodi, had to add lcd_rotate=2 to config.txt on the SD card itself (not inside Linux) to get it to be the right way up for the stupid Pi Official LCD Stand, which has the LCD the wrong way up. Bah.
Is this better? It's exactly the same... but let's check out the networking!
It appears to use connman, whatever that is... No sign of /etc/network/interfaces!
Checked connman man entry etc. Interesting. It appears to be possible to remove an interface from connman management, which presumably means one could then do something else with it.
Update: Wow!! There's a wireless AP option on the System/Networks page. Enabled it, can see AP on my iPhone and MBP, but it won't accept the passphrase!! Grrr...
Update: lots of looking for this and that - turned on logging, looked in journalctl, found a suspicious error, which I Googled... no joy. Then I switched on connman logging (touch /storage/.config/debug_connman) and rebooted. Now it works!! Coolio.
