 emily | K900: I am deeply unhappy to report that that patch does, in fact, fix PPPoE negotiation | 15:46:54 |
| emily | and v6 | 15:47:15 |
| emily | Q: why is it sending all the same things as OpenWrt and getting different results?
A: IT'S NOT SENDING THEM | 15:47:35 |
 K900 | Uhh | 15:48:16 |
| K900 | OK that's interesting | 15:48:19 |
| K900 | OK I wonder if | 15:49:04 |
| K900 | Just that last header change | 15:49:09 |
| K900 | Is what does it | 15:49:12 |
| emily | by that patch | 15:49:34 |
| emily | I mean the frank-w tree one | 15:49:36 |
| emily | not the lkml one | 15:49:38 |
| emily | I just pulled down https://github.com/frank-w/BPI-Router-Linux/commit/1a6d1e12425127e5f9fe3012581d756500342856 | 15:49:44 |
| K900 | Wack | 15:50:00 |
| emily | presumably the reason the ISP was ignoring my requests and continually asking me to ack the thing I acked is because the ack was getting dropped | 15:50:29 |
| emily | anyway, it's possible there's some nicer version of this patch on lkml or whatever? but it definitely fixes it for me | 15:50:50 |
| emily | I cannot believe that I spent like 2–3 days debugging this when PPP wasn't the problem at all | 15:52:05 |
| K900 | Uhhhh | 15:53:06 |
| K900 | Fuck | 15:53:11 |
| emily | I'm sorry for this cursed knowledge | 15:57:11 |
| emily | I guess the reason it never affects you is because PPP is the only thing ever really resulting in packets that small? | 15:57:37 |
| K900 | Seems so | 15:57:45 |
 @magic_rb:numtide.com | emily: youre welcome | 16:00:06 |

| K900 | This is so sus | 16:00:56 |
| @magic_rb:numtide.com | what the fuck does that mean? not being able to load the firmware? not being able to find it? | 16:00:58 |
| @magic_rb:numtide.com | it worked a few days ago | 16:01:13 |
| K900 | Hmm I wonder if you're trying to early load it in initrd or something | 16:01:19 |
| @magic_rb:numtide.com | rmmod and modprobe dont do it either | 16:01:32 |
| K900 | Missing zstd support in the kernel somehow? | 16:01:47 |
