they're a lot alike although the C2 is quite a bit newer than the C1
<rapha>
ah, it seems my belief that something more than just flashing the image needs to be done came from the memory of what you have to do with archlinuxarm ... who don't provide an image, but a .tar.gz
<rapha>
which makes this very strange tho

<Armbian-Discord>
<RichN> you extract the iimg from gz
<Armbian-Discord>
<RichN> then flash .img with dd or etcher or rufus
<Armbian-Discord>
<RichN> to the sd card
<rapha>
onoez
<rapha>
y'all the joke is on me
<rapha>
these are not C2
<rapha>
these are C1+
<rapha>
ouch
<rapha>
so how do i find the last working image for the c1 from before support was dropped?
<chewitt>
there's no upstream u-boot support for meson8 hardware though, so you're stuck with the prehistoric vendor u-boot

chewitt: i don't even know what that is (u-boot, meson8, etc), and I'm mostly interested in newer USB WiFi dongle drivers. worth the effort to learn how to build an image myself to get from 5.10 to 5.17?

<IgorPec>
rapha: generally included wifi drivers in any armbian kernel are better then those that comes in 5.17

@Werner the clubs's readme says "Amlogic (S9xx) based TV Boxes" is not supported and last build is from 2020 with no devs. very helpful link, thanks
<lanefu>
If you don't need tons of power I also like the opi 3 / allwinner h6 chip
<lanefu>
But yeah same thing don't know that we've tested the LTS with new network chips
<Werner>
lts boards have not arrived in lab yet I think

IgorPec: thanks, i guess I'll stay on the pre-built image then. the Netgear USB WiFi dongle is working out of the box already. the D-Link one does nothing. the TP-Link one works but once you start putting some stress on it, the whole kernel crashes. but 1 is good enough for now.
<IgorPec>
well, this is "wireless networking on linux". what i want to say is that elsewhere is just worse. we do patch and some additional drivers
<rapha>
which is appreciated a lot!
<rapha>
maybe eventually i will get around to looking into the other two sticks. for now i'm happy to have my 3d printer back. with archlinuxarm i was stuck on kernel 3.something.
<buZz>
rapha: octoprint? )
<buZz>
are you also slicing on the sbc? :D i am
<buZz>
its so nice to have a 3dprinter with ethernet and no other external software requirements beside a webbrowser

buZz: octo & klipper, yup. but not slicing on the sbc for lack of a good headless slicer.

i'm using the 2015 cura, works for me ;)
<rapha>
interesting
<rapha>
i'm sometimes playing with things that are quite far out there ... trying to get into lightweight PLA for example, or other aircraft parts. got used to non-free Cura a lot now.
<buZz>
i havent gotten it to work with slic3r yet, but supposedly that works too
<buZz>
there's a non-free cura?
<buZz>
and isnt all PLA ~1.25 g/cm³

<montjoie>
IgorPec: I asked for your power switch/ci because I wanted to speak about LAVA... but i just see that on lwn some people already speaked about it. If you need help, I can do it.
