You may remember me from such threads as Meraki MS220-series FOSS firmware and Meraki MS210/MS225 custom firmware testers wanted. The Meraki MS420 series comprised 24 and 48 port SFP+ switches launched in the early 2010s. The MS420 reached its official EoL in 2023, and is no longer supported by...

If they do not provide the complete or correct source code, they're in violation of the software license. If they don't want to voluntarily provide it, they can be legally compelled to (see: SFC vs Vizio). License compliance is not rocket science (despite numerous peoples' attempts in this...

No, they are not. Linking to vendor marketing fluff and telling me to go ask AMI are not relevant or helpful. My OP stands, Gigabyte are using GPL licensed software in their BMC and are refusing to provide it upon request: This is a violation of the GPL and if Gigabyte do not change their...

LMGTFY is not a valid response to a GPL request. You've linked to the AMI product page of MegaRAC, which contains no source code corresponding to what Gigabyte is using in their BMC. I'm afraid I, and the GPL license, have to disagree with you here. Whether Gigabyte got their GPL licensed BMC...

Have a link to that? If Gigabyte are modifying GPL code for their motherboards, then yes they need to provide that. Their feelings on the proprietary nature of said modifications are moot. Proprietary kernel modules or libraries are of course outside the scope of this request.

FWIW I requested the GPL source code for the BMC running on this motherboard and Gigabyte are refusing to provide it: https://forums.servethehome.com/index.php?threads/gigabyte-is-refusing-to-provide-gpl-source-code-for-bmc-firmware.44232/

Hi, like many of you I have purchased some Gigabyte motherboards that were featured here (MJ11-EC1, MC12-LE0). The BMC on these motherboards runs Linux: $ binwalk 126121.bin DECIMAL HEXADECIMAL DESCRIPTION...

Looks like a product brief for another member of the Jaguar-1 family. The MS220-48 and MS320 series use the VSC7434.

Thank you for the offer, I will post here what I sent you in a DM. The MS220 firmware has been "stable" for several years, so there is no longer a need for volunteers to test it. Although sadly work on adding DSA support (lead by Bootlin) doesn't appear to have amounted to anything, so it is a...

FWIW if you're US based, you can find 24/48GbE + 4 SFP+ switches used for around the same price. Power consumption and noise are obviously higher.

I am not sure they're the same seller. They do have the same logo, and background for their photos, but the seller in the other thread claims to be in Georgia, and this one is in Florida. Although these are $50/5, so double the price of the other seller's offer.

There's a US based seller with QSFP28 100G DAC cables (PDF datasheet) selling a lot of 5 for $50 (best offer available) with free shipping: From what I can tell from the datasheet, they're 1m cables, but the Molex part number (1002973003) also seems to refer to 3m cables? $10/each seems like a...

At this expense and bother, just buy an HBA.

They are located in the same business park as Scaleway/Online.net DC5. Draw your own conclusions ;)

Just so you're aware, the PCIe riser doesn't come with a power cable, and uses Micro-Fit 3.0 for power. PM me your details and I can mail you a power cable for it. Some sellers also send the wrong SlimSAS cable. The cable I received had a different head style with a plastic hood that I had to...

PCIe x8 versus x4, but for the GPU you plan to install and your use case it won't make any practical difference.

M.2 to PCIe x4 is by far the cheapest, you can get the adapters for under $5 Be advised that the PCIe on the board is not oculink, but SlimSAS 4i and 8i. For the 4i you can expect to pay around $25-30 for cable and breakout board. 8i closer to $40. They have been linked to earlier in the thread.

You should also be able to dump from the BMC, since it has mux access to the BIOS flash. However, I haven't been able to get it working yet. Note that you need root access on the BMC (but this is easy given the stock firmware has hard-coded credentials). To dump BIOS, first run...
