  1. AROS: Experimental USB 3 support in Poseidon

    In mid-December 2025, we reported that USB 3.0 support for the Poseidon USB stack was under development by Nick 'Kalamatee' Andrews, and that an initial experimental ISO was already available. Krzysztof 'deadwood' Śmiechowicz has now improved this approach to such an extent that AROS 64-bit can be booted from USB sticks on motherboards with USB 3 support.

  4. Meni DVD-asema rikki ja ostin tilalle Bluray-aseman, ulkoisen.

    Siinä oli tällainen datakaapeli. Tuo sininen USB3 on toinen pää, ja nuo kaksi muuta toinen.

    Ohjeiden mukaan tuo USB 3 Micro-B tulee soittimeen, ja nuo kaksi muuta tietokoneeseen.

    Mukana tuli virtakaapeleita jos koneen virtalähteessä ei tehoa.

    Tämä viritelmä on kyllä että nyt mennään jumalten valosta, ja nopeasti.

    Pistin merkkitarran, jos dementiassa en tiedä mihin kuuluu (protip: kandee jos uniikki johto).

  6. Cool #Troubleshooting
    I use my #smartphone as a router. The connection is not good for heavier traffic than #ping requests and responses. #lynx is okay.
    So, I moved it from #usb2 to #usb3 The connection is by far better and with less disconnections.

  8. AROS: First experimental USB 3 support in Poseidon
    Krzysztof 'deadwood' Śmiechowicz has announced that USB 3 support for the Poseidon USB stack is in development by Nick 'Kalamatee' Andrews and that an initial experimental ISO is already available. Once the work is complete, this should enable the use of modern hardware (post-2015) on AROS systems, representing a significant technological leap forward for the system.

    I remember that command from Linux and I've just checked online since I'm on the phone and found this hit

    I didn't see that specific switch though

    Up to know I have not seen any USB thumb drive which can write as fast as it reads in practicality

    The 64 to 256 GB thumb drives that I work with, write at about 6 to 8 Mbps when they are in sync mode

    In the beginning the drive seems to lie and shows speeds that are close to the absolute speed of the USB 3 Connection. In reality is not really a lie because the Linux Operating System loves to cache it's file systems, especially if they're native, like ext4

    However the file system warns you never to remove the thumb drive until it's actually done writing. If you use something like Midnight Commander it will show you that the writing speed drops all the way down to six to eight megabytes a second!

    That happens on both modern systems and on Old obsolete systems with just USB 2

  18. Mmm… it seems that the newest #kernel on #Fedora, which is the first available in the 6.17 series, has broken the support for #USB3. It recognizes #USB 3 ports only as USB 2 and so doesn’t have all the functionality. For me, this means that my nice set up for multiple #displays no longer works correctly. Therefore, I have reverted to a 6.16 kernel until the problem’s fixed. Ho hum…

  21. Uso #archlinux su disco #nvne da 1T #sabrent (home non separata).
    +
    Un SSD #samsung da 256G dedicato a backup del blog, ISO varie ed eventuali: roba che se perdo poco importa.
    +
    Per #backup ho 1 #maxtor #usb3 che collego al bisogno.

    Tutti con #luks + #ext4.

    Il setup è ok, ma penso di mettere un disco meccanico da 4T in locale dedicato al backup incrementale ( #kup o #timeshift ) e poi questo lo copierò sul Maxtor esterno.

    Pareri? Consigli sul disco da acquistare? Grazie 😊

  22. 🚀 Introducing #BashLab: A Portable Fast Lab for BashCore! 🖥️🔧

    I just set up a lightning-fast portable lab running Debian XFCE on a USB 3.0 drive, fully optimized for BashCore development & testing. This setup lets me:

    ✅ Boot anywhere with persistence 🏃‍♂️
    ✅ Work faster than my old HDD 🚀
    ✅ Keep everything isolated & portable 🔒

    Perfect for testing, experimenting, and refining BashCore without touching my main system!

  24. Its alive!!!
    My 2TB portable #HDD that died earlier this week has now been repaired (by myself 😃 ).
    The internal #SATA to #USB3 interface went ping.
    I got a new, not like for like, replacement and with the help of a hacksaw, some snips and electrical tape it had been brought back to life.
    The new SATA interface is a generic one that should work with any 2.5 internal HDD so I needed to cut a bit off the original portable HHD case.
    Nice fix which only cost me £3.99 GBP and 15 minutes of my time.

  26. Isn't the whole point of USB C that it's reversible? Yet when I plug my ereader into my PC one way, it doesn't charge or show up as attached. If I flip the connector, it does. Weird.

  27. Looking for an USB hub that actually interfaces to the host (PC) with USB3.0 for USB2.0 client devices. All i can find are devices that have an USB3 and USB2 hub in one case. IOW: any usb2.0 client device is routed via USB2.0 pins to the host uplink.
    (such an USB3 to USB2 bridge would be helpful to overcome the bandwidth limit when running multiple USB2.0 devices in parallel.) #usb #usb3

  30. I venture to post an oddity here
    meshtastic.discourse.group/t/s
    concerning the use of #usbc to #usba adapters and the effect that can have. The section in question is "Testing using USB C input via USB A output from solar panel to prevent drain of battery by the panel" in this #meshtastic #solarnode build test. If anyone can predict if my tests will fail, that would save me time and make me learn even more than I think I have. #usbc4 #usb #usb3
