Anyone know how to make Linux enumerate USB devices in a consistent way? Having to alter my #USBIP scripts every time I reboot is very annoying.

Ich habe neulich über #USBIP gelesen, welches Teil des #Linux Kernels ist und vergleichbar mit #VirtualHere ist.

Leider gibt es kein offizielles GUI, weil Linuxer in ihrer unendlichen Weisheit nichts von Benutzerfreundlichkeit wissen wollen.

Auf Github hat aber scheinbar doch jemand ein einfaches, in Python geschriebenes GUI veröffentlicht, vor zwei Jahren, das noch immer funktioniert!

Can anyone think of a way to limit the devices that can be connected via #usbip?

It would be nice to know that I am connecting the device type I expected. It would make the protocol feel a little less dangerous.

Someone told me to put what I've found out about #usbip into a blog post.

So now I have a #blog.

Got #usbIP to work between openSUSE Tumbleweed and Ubuntu 20.04. No more plugging DAC and webcam USB cables between them.

Will try to remember enough of what I needed to do and write it up. Ubuntu was definitely the easier side, but I think I struggled so much with openSUSE because I didn't realise I should skip some steps...

Danke für deine Antwort @frankenmichl...

aber verräts du mir noch wie das Stückchen Software und wo ich es finde? 🤔

Bei meiner Anwendung handelt es sich um #OneWire und #USBaufRS232, nix Massenspeicher 😉

#USBIP

@frankenmichl

Würd mich interessieren wie das #USBIP funktioniert?

Brauchts da extra Hardware oder ist das softwareseitig? 🤔

there's now a #wayland #synergy/#barrier client. no server yet. there's a experimental wlroots protocol for virtual keyboard & pointers. weird watching a brand new desktop rpc layer, of which this is one possible piece, coalesce into place. wayland is this weird act of re-extensing out a world.

tbh i'm more in favor #uinput forwarding systems. they are natural & simple, if only for good platforms. someone will probably have gotten something together for synergy before i get around to dabbling here. in a cooler world there are direct synergy/uinput converters, but i'm generally of the opinion that longer term, synergy probably, like the deskops before, meet the great fire & be reborn as something new.

behind door number three is shipping around usb devices wholesale, with #usbip.

it's all #rpc, all messages, all streams of data, flowing. software define aka liberate these worlds, including the input worlds.
