Hi, I'm looking for advise to ensure a good and long life to this kind of hardware. http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/compute-stick/intel-compute-stick.htm... I've took the stck1a32wfc (windows preloaded) due to better hardware. The only thing that doesn't work out of the box is the Realtek wifi/bluetooth chipset. a rtl8723bs Fortunately there's one person that have good sources. https://github.com/hadess/rtl8723bs So after installing Leap from usb key, and prepare the environment I've tested first the build install of the drivers without any kernel-patches. Connect but fail to handle network load etc... hadess has some patches for kernel < 4.3 So good so far, I've patched the kernel and rebuild the whole (On the stick just for a try and science 320 minutes) Once this patched 4.1.12 + the driver everything work now. I've a perfect kodi (new xmbc name) connected on the tv. I'm looking for your input on several points : - Will the driver code end up in kernel one day? - What would be best way to maintain a derivative kernel on which I can add the needed patches ? - I'm okay to build a kmp- on obs, do you see any kind of problem? (mostly license) At the end, I would like to get a easy as (zypper/kiwi) build to create a dedicated susestudio/kiwi build for this model so we could have something easy to install for grand-aunty ;-) Thanks for your remarks, ideas, flame whatever. -- Bruno Friedmann Ioda-Net Sàrl www.ioda-net.ch openSUSE Member & Board, fsfe fellowship GPG KEY : D5C9B751C4653227 irc: tigerfoot -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner@opensuse.org
