lekernel | anyone ever managed to flash a RTL8111/8168 ethernet card to change the MAC address? | 21:15 |
---|---|---|
lekernel | I'm trying to get systemd to run macchanger at boot, but it's a hell of a mess to get it to run at the proper time, or to run it at all... wondering if it may be simpler to just flash the card | 21:16 |
whitequark | the gigabit one? | 21:17 |
whitequark | one of my friends accidentally bricked one... without ever attempting to reflash it | 21:17 |
lekernel | yes | 21:18 |
whitequark | was a broken driver iirc | 21:18 |
lekernel | passing the mac address as kernel boot param before the poettering starts would also work, I guess | 21:18 |
whitequark | poettering? | 21:19 |
lekernel | systemd, pulseaudio, bugs, etc. | 21:19 |
larsc | the poettering! | 21:19 |
whitequark | hehe | 21:27 |
larsc | not so well known fact, he studied at the same university as I did | 21:35 |
whitequark | larsc: should I stay wary of your code too? | 21:36 |
whitequark | - or, another thing which came into my mind - | 21:36 |
whitequark | could you punch him in the face? | 21:36 |
Action: whitequark has determined not a long time ago that no, galaxy s 2 couldn't survive a decent impact with a wall | 21:38 | |
larsc | why would you do that? | 21:43 |
whitequark | larsc: a bit more stress than i could handle gracefully. | 21:43 |
larsc | ok | 21:44 |
Fallenou | :x | 21:44 |
wpwrak | interesting concept: expensive yet fragile personal electronics as a peace-keeping accessory | 22:05 |
whitequark | heh | 22:10 |
whitequark | the value, for me at least, is not in the cost but in function | 22:11 |
whitequark | decoupling all of it from each single device to any might have been a bad idea, in hindsight | 22:11 |
