matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | Doubt to find any Macintosh people around, but might be pleasantly surprised | 17:36:47 |
hexa | offtopic | 17:40:24 |
hexa | networking on nixos would be on-topic | 17:41:07 |
adamcstephens | not just Macintosh people, but those who know about 40 year old Macintosh. seems doubtful indeed, and definitely off topic | 17:45:58 |
magic_rb | @matthewcroughan:defenestrate.it @emilazy:matrix.org remember the weird switch that can supposedly run owrt, someone was just asking on the irc channel how to change the modes on the sfp. So yes it can indeed run owrt | 21:49:26 |
magic_rb | I mean this one https://aliexpress.com/item/1005005777395543.html | 21:49:36 |
magic_rb | So ig thats what im buying and then shoving owrt into it and also seeing if i can port liminix | 21:50:47 |
emily | I want more than 8 ports :'( | 21:51:05 |
magic_rb | Buy 2 and daisy chain :P | 21:51:16 |
K900 | I'm pretty sure they're asking about the vendor firmware FWIW | 21:51:24 |
emily | I want AArch64 :'( | 21:51:24 |
magic_rb | @k900:0upti.me oh, nevermind then | 21:51:52 |
emily | the impression I got was that anything with that one Realtek chip shouldn't be hard to port for at least basic functionality. | 21:51:56 |
emily | * the impression I got was that anything with that one Realtek chip shouldn't be hard to port for at least basic functionality. | 21:51:58 |
magic_rb | In reply to @emilazy:matrix.org I want AArch64 :'( I was so many things and yet here we are :) | 21:52:18 |
emily | I spent so long looking at switch stuff Linux supports and the intersection of (mainline Linux support, chip is actually in normal switches you can buy, >1 Gbit/s, <$5k) seems so empty | 21:53:40 |
emily | it's basically that Realtek thing (and the upstream support is incomplete there anyway) | 21:53:56 |
magic_rb | What is not implemented? | 21:54:15 |
emily | hmm? | 21:56:14 |
emily | for the Realtek? it looked like lots of stuff was still in-flight | 21:56:26 |
magic_rb | In reply to @emilazy:matrix.org it's basically that Realtek thing (and the upstream support is incomplete there anyway) ^ | 21:56:26 |
emily | OpenWrt has a forked OpenWrt kernel for it etc. | 21:56:33 |
emily | there's one guy upstreaming stuff | 21:56:38 |
magic_rb | Welp, better than a web ui | 21:57:37 |
magic_rb | Im off, i need to sleep, im extremely tired, like, everything hurts, barely able to move the last few days, so bye, gn | 21:58:07 |
matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | Lemme know how it goes | 22:54:27 |
matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | I want this too, but the SFPs are too costly for something that might not actually work | 22:54:42 |
