    Seconding this. The last time I use raspberry pi it was the first version and it could barely do x windows; trying to push everything to remote x and through ssh might make it unusable, but it will still technically work.

    In your shoes: I would use something like cockpit and it comes with most distos by default. It uses your local browser to administer your rpi and can also give you a shell or virtual terminal.

    If you insist on forwarding x over ssh, then be sure to enable compression. (I didn’t see it in the article that you linked).




  • it’s funny that you’re using gentoo and want to avoid recompiling since the last time i used gentoo was on a single core, first generation imac and it literally took me 3 days to compile the kernel along with the drivers that i needed to get the apple/ppc architecture to work correctly

    it got so hot that i couldn’t even touch it for another day. lol

    does your router have logs and are you able to see the authentication requests or connection attempts? (you could also try setting up another ap with the same bssid and settings to see if it also ignores that too).

    without that and in your shoes; i would exactly duplicate the configuration and versions of your networking stack in your gentoo configuration; everything from the exact kernel version, to the module & firmware version; and onto the nmcli version and configuration. i would even compile the module along with the kernel if that’s what the live fedora was using.





  • it seemed like the innocent(ish) holy wars of the past like emacs vs vi; but it’s taken on a whole new destructive trajectory of its own and the old guard would rather see Linux ossify into irrelevancy rather than letting the next generation take over.

    it reminds me of an old quote from a general to the effect of: if 5 americans survive a nuclear war and 4 russian survive; then we’ve won and it was worth it.

    either that or it’s like the technological equivalent of the the democratic leadership w disaffected democratic voters leading to defeat in this last election or an elderly driver whose grown children are trying to take away their keys before things get worse; all are refusing to acknowledge the writing on the wall because they think they still got it, but they don’t.
