Marie | as long as you don't look at the boot chain it's a fairly normal system | 18:26:33 |
jasi 🏳️⚧️ | I loved my old Wii U, it's still in my basement. | 18:26:50 |
Marie | and the custom kernel lol | 18:26:53 |
dramforever | and i thought my loongson 2f laptop running nixos was bad enough | 18:27:05 |
Alyssa Ross | Does the GamePad work? | 18:27:17 |
Marie | uh not sure | 18:27:39 |
Marie | I have a few joysticks in /dev/input, so i guess yes? | 18:29:51 |
dramforever | you can hexdump those | 18:31:08 |
dramforever | for a quick test | 18:31:11 |

Tristan Ross | In reply to @marie:marie.cologne I have NixOS on my Wii-U Wtf, can you run a compositor on it tho lol | 18:36:08 |
Marie | yes | 18:36:33 |
Marie | a few other people did with other distros | 18:36:42 |
Marie | but there isn't a driver for the GPU yet sadly | 18:37:03 |
dramforever | try libinput record | 18:38:02 |
dramforever | "just" need to cross compile that | 18:38:10 |
Marie | i mean, i don't have to run around and plug the sd card into my pc anymore now | 18:38:33 |
dramforever | (might be a bad idea) | 18:38:35 |
Marie | i also bought a usb lan adapter since the wifi card doesn't work | 18:39:50 |
Marie | and of course, it's a nintendo console, no lan port | 18:39:56 |
