Gemini PDA - Linux / KDE is usable after all

I can report that the cheap bluetooth mouse (5 keys + scroll wheel) https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32975453340.html works great under KDE on Debian 9.0 on my Gemini PDA.

Gemini PDA - Linux / Connman not saving passphrases
« on: July 25, 2019, 02:39:21 am »
Since Android is generating a new mac address for your wifi interface at every reboot and Connman is storing the mac address in its services you would need to enter your wifi passwords every time you reboot.

Fortunately there is a way to lock the mac address.

1) install hexedit:
Code: [Select]
sudo apt install hexedit
2)
Code: [Select]
sudo hexedit /nvdata/APCFG/APRDEB/WIFI and set a mac address in bytes 04-09 (mind that the base is 0, so it starts at the 5th byte) of the first row (0)

3) set the i attr on the file:
Code: [Select]
sudo chattr +i /nvdata/APCFG/APRDEB/WIFI
This will lock down the mac address.

I've updated DebianTP3 Wiki and other wiki entries.
