Wifi dongle support? #19

Open SuperBadger77 opened 3 years ago

SuperBadger77 commented 3 years ago

Describe the bug I believe the S30 doesn't have wifi built in but would it be possible to support wifi dongles? There are several features in the main menu that require network support such as screen scaping, but currently there is no way to use there.

Custom Firmware version: ruka-s30-cfw-20211007

Console (please complete the following information): PocketGo S30

To Reproduce No wifi option on main menu. Adding various dongles doesn't do anything.

Expected behavior Wifi dongle support.

Screenshots NA.

Additional context NA.

While the kernel of the S30 is supposed to be open source, the source code specific extension and drivers are not available (even if that's a breach of the kernel GPL license). Technically, it should be possible to extend the kernel drivers to add network support, but that really depends on how the internal kernel has been configured.

There are many other things we need to figure out about this board before we can tackle this, but we will revisit this request at some point.

Added to the enhancements list.
