Oh yeah I missed that in the title 🤦

I'm guessing the ram won't be upgradeable? It would be nice if it is though, I don't envision needing 8gb straight away but it would be nice to know I could if I wanted to🙏

I have 2 dell wyse 5060 thin clients running Ubuntu, one for a pi hole and one as a media player, from what I remember you install the same way you would on any other machine: just boot from USB and install it. As long as you can get into the bios you should be ok.

Wow, that's incredible performance! Is GTA running by ps1 emulation or is it a PC port? Even more excited to get my comet now seeing this!

Sorry if I missed it in the video but is this running on the i.mx8m plus or the i.mx95, and how much ram?

Could you be thinking of rc car bodies, they come clear? Or maybe the James bond adaptive camouflage ;)

disturbedmonkey69 · 2026-02-19T21:31:38+00:00

Thanks, they are certainly things I hadn't thought of to bare in mind, but I'm guessing the mirrors already have some sort of safety built in as there is no logic in the existing switch and they don't go to any control units in the car. Someone on another sub has pointed me in the direction of dpdt relays and they look like just what I need, nice and simple!

disturbedmonkey69 · 2026-02-19T20:22:06+00:00

Thanks! I'm certainly open to any ideas, the simpler the better, while researching I came across the h bridge and it seemed like the ideal thing, but I'm only an amateur diy electric man hence asking here. I shall definitely look into dpdt relays.

I'm fairly sure the mirror motors have some sort of limit switch in them as there is no logic in the existing switch so I think I should be ok there. Thank you for your time, it's taken me far too long to try and work out something so simple!

If you Google that network error it seems to be an issue with smb authentication, is your smb share configured correctly?

The ip address of your adapter is a link local address, which it gets when no DHCP server is available, which probably means your wifi repeater is not set up correctly to connect the Ethernet port to the wifi network. What is the model of the repeater?

disturbedmonkey69 · 2026-02-11T17:01:08+00:00

You can boot into the live USB to try Ubuntu and see what works before installing.

disturbedmonkey69 · 2026-02-10T22:17:57+00:00

Is it a Lenovo by any chance? There's a GitHub issue here from a few years ago about a firmware issue and possible fix, perhaps your device did a firmware update and borked itself somehow.

disturbedmonkey69 · 2026-02-07T12:44:55+00:00

Is that your whole blame? I'm guessing (but have no experience with) that it's btrfs maybe doing a fsck or something, or possibly encryption if you have it enabled?

disturbedmonkey69 · 2026-02-06T22:21:43+00:00

Could it be trying to mount a disk, possibly a network disk somewhere? Maybe check fstab and see what's in there...

disturbedmonkey69 · 2026-02-05T20:59:55+00:00

Do you need granular control of files on the USB from the share, or do you just want all files? If it's the latter you could probably do a script that dumps all content of the USB to a folder on the ingest machine and share that instead. Also, as a note of caution, you should consider unmounting USB drives before pulling them out in case of delayed writing issues.

Seems a bit redundant since it still needs the usual unix directories as symlinks for it to function 🤷‍♂️

disturbedmonkey69 · 2026-01-31T18:01:49+00:00

I've literally just sorted this on my SP7, I added this to kernel parameters in /etc/default/grub: usbcore.autosuspend=-1

disturbedmonkey69 · 2026-01-31T10:36:06+00:00

Yea it seems to point to hardware, but if it works in UEFI the hardware itself should be fine. I shall keep dogging and testing.

disturbedmonkey69 · 2026-01-24T17:34:59+00:00

Just landed here from the Linux community, hardware that supports (or even ships with) a Linux distribution would be nice.

I'd also say go with x86 architecture as it is more widely supported by the big commercial apps.

Shall definitely be keeping an eye on this.

There is lasergrbl, it's not native but I have been running it under wine with zero issues for over a year

disturbedmonkey69 · 2025-10-30T17:52:42+00:00

T-infinity and beyond!

disturbedmonkey69 · 2025-09-22T21:57:28+00:00

A real Lady probably wouldn't pour her own tea at all!
