07:57 <Armbian-Discord> <b​ret> Do any of you guys use those small HDMI/USB-C screens for testing/debugging at all? If so, do you have any recommendations? Think I need to pick one up so I'm not constantly swapping between one of my in-use screens 😅

08:01 <Armbian-Discord> <b​ret> The premium for this form factor seems unfortunate but I don't want a massive hunk of old on my desk alongside all of the other crap hah

08:12 <Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> how small you wanna go? 10" or 20" ?

08:13 <Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> i use small 22" for this purpose

08:31 <Armbian-Discord> <b​ret> I was thinking around the 10" mark, yeah, I have 2x27" on my desk and can fit another if I really wanted but I'd rather have a small one I can have on the desk somewhere for this purpose

08:31 <Armbian-Discord> <b​ret> testing when I need it and when I don't, perhaps some dashboard of sorts

08:58 <Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> i have main screen in front of me and this one on my left, like 1.2m away showing dashboard when not in used for testing

09:39 <Armbian-Discord> <b​ret> nice! I spotted one of the NVMe heatsinks that I also tested and have concluded are complete trash 😅

09:40 <Armbian-Discord> <b​ret> They were super cheap and got me up to an AliExpress combined order upgrade, actually ended up being around the same temp as before without them and the bands crumbled and thermal pad flopped off after a couple of months

09:59 <Armbian-Discord> <l​anefu> always wanted something like that myself

10:02 <Armbian-Discord> <b​ret> In my head I’m finding it really hard to justify the price difference when I could pick up a cheap old monitor for it but yeah.. I think a well made little one will be best

10:03 <Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> i purchase that 22 from local ebay, used

10:03 <Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> it was cheap

11:59 <Armbian-Discord> <l​anefu> Could always go pikvm route

12:04 <Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> I have mixed feeling with pikvm. Works well with 1st class hw, else random

12:05 <Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> Could be switch to blame. Not 100% sure

12:09 <nekomancer[m]> <Armbian-Discord> "<l​anefu> Could always go..." <- what do you mean?

12:12 <Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> To have monitor via hdmi grabber

12:28 <nekomancer[m]> aww

13:52 <Armbian-Discord> <b​ret> Ehh I think I'll pass on that one 😄

13:53 <Armbian-Discord> <b​ret> Managed to get this damn MangoPi booted, albeit no HDMI output and though I can now get eth0 and wlan0 to connect to my network, it doesn't seem to want to actually get an IP so that's nice. More debugging to figure out why neither DHCP or manual configurations are working here

13:53 <Armbian-Discord> <b​ret> Though sorry, not on Armbian, just venting here as I had it open 😅

13:58 <Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> hehe

13:58 <Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> i have just added your mirror, btw

14:00 <Armbian-Discord> <b​ret> Thanks! ❤️

14:01 <Armbian-Discord> <b​ret> Didn't take long for things to start flowing into it, nice 😄

14:06 <Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> there will be one small flood those days. have to rebuild images since https://forum.armbian.com/topic/21546-broken-image-in-repo/#comment-141948

19:48 <cheakoirccloud> I have an esspresobin and I'm wondering if it's on-board ethernet switch is giving me trouble. I'm looking to monitor pkts as they travel to the "modems/routers". Any advice on setting up a simple port monitor?

19:50 <cheakoirccloud> Locally on the device I can connect to the internet and tcpdump showes both SYN and SYN/ACK packets. However NATed connections are seemingly going out to the modems, but the responses never come.

19:52 <cheakoirccloud> I may grab an ancient Pi and turn on my managed switche's port monitoring feature.

19:54 <cheakoirccloud> I mean espressobin

23:11 <stipa> cheakoirccloud: https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/networking/bridge

23:12 <stipa> if you put your two ethernet nics into bridge you'll be able to see what's going on through the ethernet cable

23:13 <stipa> by various software

23:13 <cheakoirccloud> That sounds good, but I don't think I've the hardware lying around... I need something with two nics?

23:14 <stipa> you could bridge wifi nic and ethernet nic too

23:14 <stipa> via proxyarp

23:15 <stipa> or via brdiging ethernet nic and wifi nic if wifi nic is an AP

23:15 <cheakoirccloud> That sounds better...

23:15 <stipa> if wifi nic is a client you need to use proxyarp

23:16 <stipa> https://wiki.debian.org/BridgeNetworkConnectionsProxyArp

23:26 <cheakoirccloud> I've got a laptop and it's setup with WiFi to the router. I configure it to l3 bridge with proxyrp and dhcp bouncing, then I can unplug the ethernet to the router and plug it into the side of the laptop?

23:27 <cheakoirccloud> The goal being to look for the SYN pkts coming from the other side of the espressobin?

23:51 <cheakoirccloud> stipa: I'm skeptical of those instructions, they ask to reboot for changes to take effect. However `eth0 inet manual`, each time you reboot it's necessary to reconfigure the interface. Also step 2 has `ip ro add 10.42.0.11/32 dev eth0`. It's contradictory, asking to set proxy_arp then saying it's unnecessary.

23:53 <cheakoirccloud> It's not really explained if the WiFi interface does DHCP or why you also need a static assignment for the ethernet interface.
