#Ubuntu diskutiert über #Firmware-Split :

#Firmware in #Debian ist in viele einzelne #Pakete aufgeteilt, die typischerweise auf bestimmte Hardware oder Gerätefamilien ausgerichtet sind. Dieser modulare Ansatz bedeutet, dass Benutzer im Allgemeinen nur die #Firmware-Pakete installieren, die für ihre Hardware relevant sind, und nicht ein einziges, allumfassendes #Paket, wie bei #Ubuntu.

@aurynn the problem is that #vendors have neither interest nor incentive to work with 3rd party #ROMs like @LineageOS nor @GrapheneOS.

@soatok Hi, I'm uvok. Member of the furry fandom since I don't know when.

I'm #firmware developer to earn my living. As a consequence, I "kinda lost my passion" for programming in my free time, or I just lack the energy? Not sure which it is. ("I studied electrical engineering, I have to have electronic projects!!!" is a weird pressure I put onto myself for a while).

Took interest in computer networking a while ago and decided to run an Autonomous System. Now it just runs itself. Still not sure what to do with it. Maybe I'm gonna put it on my CV?

I occasionally blog. Mostly about technical/computer subjects.

I started to play #guitar in 2019, took private lessons until my teacher moved one or two years ago. Haven't looked for another one yet, putting it off constantly. I noodle around occasionally and look for sheet music. I play in a group/"an ensemble" with flutists, though!

I love being outside, walking or bicycling, a few days ago I bought a pedelec which I already tested. It's fun. I like to read, technical subjects, or fantasy.

I occasionally pick up a not-exactly-hobby / learning subject, do it for some time, and then lose interest again.

Looking for "meaning" in my life, I help counting votes at elections, am member of a employee organization at my employer, and (occasionally) help at furry conventions (so far in the kitchen and at the front desk).

Usually too shy to approach other people, as a consequence probably missing out a lot of fruitful connections.

We had a very nice talk on Ariel #OS at #RustWeek - and this slide made me realize I could use another approach to explain this one thing I always try to explain:

Right between constrained #microcontrollers and application processors that offer gigabytes of memory and an MMU, platform initialization #firmware such as @oreboot is #software that transitions from what feels like an MCU over into the full system by bringing up DRAM.

In that sense, it is #embedded software programming.

It appears that I have a spare #Linksys E2500 v1 #router with #firmware source code available that can build a full firmware distribution. I'm going to be experimenting with this.

The router in question runs #FreshTomato currently, but I want to experiment with modifying the stock firmware cause why not :P

I'm actually looking into the same thing with a Linksys EA7500 v3, which is more challenging and appropriate given that its source doesn't seem like it'll produce a full binary, so maybe I think I'd have to patch any changes into the available binary rather than just build my own.

To start, we'll upgrade #libid3tag on these routers in their stock firmware. Then we'll upgrade more things. I'd like to start with userland binaries and libraries and then move gradually deeper into the system stuff. I don't think I'd get to the kernel though.
