Re: cubieboard sxie no broadcast packets visible

perhaps not surprising since I reported the problem in mid Sept and 7.0 came out in Oct. No worries, I'll apply it again, but is the fix planned to be added to the official sources at some point? I'd like to avoid patching my cubieboard each release if I can avoid it. Thanks, John -- John DiMarco

openbsd 7.0 packages

a while to build packages. I'm just trying to get an idea of when it might appear. Thanks, John -- John DiMarco http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~jdd IT Director, Computer Science Department, University of Toronto Office: BA4252Phone:1-416-978-5300Fax:1-416-946-5464

Re: cubieboard sxie no broadcast packets visible

the problem entirely: arp now works, and tcpdump broadcast works too. Thank you! BTW, sxie did perform not too badly, much better than when I last tried it a few years ago; large scps in the order of 4-6MB/s so it is getting better. Regards John -- John DiMarco http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~jdd

Re: cubieboard sxie no broadcast packets visible

e problem is specific to the sxie driver. The realtek works (broadcasts are visible, arp works) so I suspect it is an sxie driver issue.

cubieboard sxie no broadcast packets visible

first talks to it. "tcpdump -i sxie0 broadcast" shows nothing despite plenty of broadcast packets on the network. Is this a known issue? Regards, John -- John DiMarco http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~jdd IT Director, Computer Science Department, University of Toronto Office: BA4252P

Re: arm64 sbc stable

for which the default miniroot works without pre-hackery? Or do they all require the addition of customized dtb's? The install instructions suggest that there is some preexisting support in the miniroot for Allwinner and Rockchip 33xx SBCs - if so, which ones? Pine A64+? Rock64? Thanks, John -- John

Re: X windows FAIL

X server and X clients don't need to run on the same machine. There's no intrinsic reason an armv7 box running openbsd can't run X clients displaying over the network to another system. If you really want X on OpenBSD on an inexpensive box, consider some of the lower-cost lower-power x86 hardware
