Looks nice! But isn't the main problem with such routers that have WiFi included, that wesetting such things up are not that easy?
<srk>
I'm actually wondering about wifi right now
<eyJhb>
Would be cool with small thin clients like Unifi etc.
<srk>
maybe I just need to enable firmwares. I would expect installer image to have some but only wired interfaces are available
<eyJhb>
What would you use for the software?
<srk>
networkmanager xD
<srk>
not sure, I only know about this and hostapd which I've played with few years ago
<eyJhb>
I wonder what openwrt uses?
<srk>
first I need to figure out how to manage it from x86 machine, then figure out firmwares and software is the last step
<srk>
not sure
<srk>
hostapd
<eyJhb>
Hmm... Wonder if there is something NEW BETTER AND STRONGER! in the works
<eyJhb>
Or if it is just standard
<hexa->
eyJhb: everyone uses hostapd, not sure what needs to be "NEW BETTER AND STRONGER"
<eyJhb>
hexa-: I am unsure as well, but the general thing seems to be that "someone" wants something else, and then we end up with a thousand different pieces of software that does somewhat the same, but not completely :)
<srk>
this is linuxPackages_latest ofc .. 5.10.17 :)
<teto>
srk I am damn tempted to buy an omnia now
<srk>
both wifis seem to work \o/
<srk>
teto: I would suggest waiting a couple of days .. :D I've just made it boot
<srk>
hexa-: ez fix with boot.kernelParams = [ "pcie_aspm=off" ]; \o/
<hexa->
hehe
<hexa->
you probably don't have many pcie devices on there anyway
<srk>
teto: I've tried like two years ago but I cannot be bothered to install ubuntu to be able to rebuild old uboot with DISTRO_DEFAULTS. they do have more recent one now - some details https://gitlab.nic.cz/turris/misc/-/issues/18
<srk>
of course their omnia-2019 branch is missing nixos longs paths patch .. :D
<hexa->
podman?
<srk>
did I spill podman somewhere?
<hexa->
no, you probably could get by with building uboot in an ubuntu container
<srk>
oh, because I'm talking about podman on another channel
<hexa->
haha ok
<srk>
non issue currently. they are progressing with uboot mainlining effors which is nice
<srk>
it was stuck on older version for some time as SPL grew too large with more recent ones. that seems to be fixed too
<andi->
srk: looking at the nixos-omnia repo the only custom package is uboot?! Any reason not to include that in nixpkgs?
<srk>
andi-: not mainlined yet
<andi->
yeah but we also have non-mainlined uboots in nixpkgs already
