ogra_ | rtg, i rememebr we used to have a discussion about crda in the ubuntu-core snap/rootfs ... which resulted in me removing it there ... do you remember the reason ? | 13:16 |
---|---|---|
ogra_ | (i'm just doing a seed cleanup and the package came back ... ) | 13:17 |
ogra_ | apparently wlan workks without it on the pi3 and dragonboard ... | 13:17 |
apw | ogra_, is that safe ? given that gives you information about what is legal in your juristiction ? | 13:18 |
rtg | ogra_, well, crda is only required if the device has non-firmware based wifi. sforshee is probably a lot fresher on the topic these days. | 13:18 |
ogra_ | apw, i dont know ... happy to keep it ... but irc there was a reason why we dropped it | 13:18 |
ogra_ | seemingly my two boards that have onboard wlan worked before it came back | 13:19 |
ogra_ | it doesnt seem to make a difference in functionallity | 13:20 |
apw | ogra_, you are in a location with quite a wide set of frequencies ... dunno ... i don't recall the original discussion so ... | 13:20 |
ogra_ | if it makes sense to have it i'll happily keep it ... if it is just unused ballast it doesnt mmake sense though | 13:21 |
rtg | ogra_, it is certainly in use for those wifi adapters where the protocol stack runs on the host CPU | 13:23 |
rtg | wireless-regdb is still getting patches and being maintained by sforshee | 13:23 |
ogra_ | like intel ? | 13:23 |
rtg | oglike intel | 13:23 |
rtg | ogra_, ^^ | 13:23 |
ogra_ | ok | 13:23 |
ogra_ | that makes snese then | 13:23 |
ogra_ | enough for me to keep it | 13:23 |
ogra_ | (i guess the NUC guys will actually like to have it available then :)) | 13:24 |
trippeh_ | the firmware-based ones I've seen also uses crda and wireless-regdb by intersecting the OS provided tables and the firmware ones. | 13:37 |
trippeh_ | I guess so it is possible to introduce new restrictions without a fw update. | 13:37 |
trippeh_ | at least ath9k does this | 13:38 |
