So you mean it would have no effect, yes? On restart it will have the same settings and firmware it did prior to pressing the reset button?

I looked at the QMK docs to see about using it from the terminal. But I am not clear about how to get around the issue of the firmware not being up to date.

I don’t quite trust various bits and pieces I’ve found about how to use it around the web. Like the configurator page for this device says

Reset Key: Hold down the key located at K00, commonly programmed as Esc while plugging in the keyboard.

compared to the keychron docs I linked to in the OP which says

reset the keyboard by pressing fn + J + Z (for 4 seconds)

And also describes an actual reset button located under the space bar.

Why are they different…? It seems like keychron probab knows how to reset their own device. So I wonder if it is a good idea to load anything from this qmk page using methods I don’t understand well because I’d never be able to get myself out of a mess.

I have had the chance to use it on a few different devices and ROMs. Been with it since before name change.

Performance, especially bugginess is highly variable. I don’t know if it’s the phone, the ROM, other apps, settings or what. Sometimes it is smooth and you forget its there. other times it is crashing every 5 mins, sometimes without being fully recoverable. Like on a certain set up my widgets would disappear when it crashed and widgets aren’t in the backup so you have to redo them from scratch.

If it doesn’t work on you current device just don’t give up on it and whenever you get a new one give it a spin again.

Do an image search for screenshots, the repo doesnt really do it justice.

On f droid.

That is my previous experience. I guess i missed it somehow.

If LVM isn’t somehow mitigating the issue I will do a reinstall.

I have run out of space on / before and it is a huge pain in the ass. I do not need much room for /home on this system so I would prefer to be cautious and avoid problems down the road.

Hopefully I will be able to figure out how to specify this… maybe a different installer image.

just to check my understanding: a 4 port card provides different capability than a 1 or 2 port card with a switch attached, yes?

thanks for all the info!

i am definitely a person who will always change the defaults for no particular reason. so I appreciate the warning. except I don’t quite know what you mean by “assignments”. do you mean like the names? eth0? or their functions? I do like the idea of having a physical jack that’s always guaranteed to allow access no matter what I foul up otherwise.

all these years I have been running my home network with a collection of routers just kind of attached together in a way that shouldn’t work due to “double nat” according to everything I ever read, but it is pretty much functional if not at all optimized. maybe if you don’t believe in double nat it won’t happen to you.

thanks! so for example: Intel Gigabit Dual PORT GIGABIT ETHERNET PCIe NIC Card EXPI9402PT NC360T which is CA$30. Does that sound right?

What’s a server card?

I’d prefer to avoid VMs if possible I never had much luck with them.

that sounds useful.

i like to keep things separate when plausible.

I was hoping to make use of one of the various computers I have cluttering this place up so I could justify continuing the collection. ;)

Do you know how to determine suitability of an existing card, or how to correctly purchase a replacement?

Does “interface” mean you need separate cards? Or you have a single card with multiple interfaces?

Is DMZ like a guest network?

I looked up “IDS/IPS” and it wounds like something I would prefer to avoid doing if I can.

The best internet I could subscribe to where I’m at is 1024 Mbps down, 50 Mbps up. I’ll add that to the post I guess it is relevant since so many people have fibre. (sigh)

Yes this was the winner!

I have settled into kasts. Thanks for the rec. :) It is simple but does the job. If my phone issues persist I will try the flatpack of cpod.

it looks like a low-bs rss reader. nice!

• vocal: crash on opml import
• kasts: seems to work for downloading and playing. thanks!
• cpod: not working in aur: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/cpod
