I'd like to connect a usb ethernet dongle to my nokia #n900 on #PostmarketOS
If I connect the dongle to other computers, it uses the module r8152. So I configured and compiled the kernel for pmos.
Now I can load the module, but the eth device still doesn't show up.
In the wiki https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Nokia_N900_(nokia-n900) , there's a quote:
"With some work, it most likely should work with manual activation."
How do I do this?

I got my (re)pebble 2 duo this week and I'm shocked by how much nostalgia I feel for this device that I never had the original version of. It reminds me of an era when tech was supposed to make your life better instead of monetizing your attention. I miss my Nokia #N900 so much. Viva #calmtechnology !

It's pretty crazy, but you can successfully run Gemini CLI on Nokia #N900 running #postmarketos. Sure, you'd better run it on top of bash, otherwise Gemini is getting very confused with results, but it's working and it can actually do things!

someone shared his #n900 with #postmarketos installed encourages me to buy that phone and do the same as he did. still, one problem i have before i buy is battery lifetime. is it worth it?

Picked up an old #Nokia #N900 for cheap, turned out to the micro USB port was broken.
So I had the opportunity to learn SMD soldering. Both harder and easier than expected, does require proper tools.
The plan was to install #PostmarketOS or #maemoleste and use it as a portable mini-computer.
Might still try but I kind of remembered why I don't play around with Linux on old hardware...
It takes too much time and I have too many other things I want to do, and in the end there is always compromises when working on old undocumented hardware.
But it's type II fun so I always come back to it after :-)
