We have to draw the line somewhere, e.g. we don't design nor produce hardware ourselves, although hardware is needed to make Tails function as intended. sajolida then explained where we currently draw it: >> We rely on whatever is available in the Linux kernel and >> Debian firmware packages, so the work should be done >> there and it will work in Tails. >> > Okay. > I agree that it is to be expected that drivers and whatnot are included > upstream. ... so it looks like we're on the same page in the end :) Cheers, -- intrigeri ___ Tails-dev mailing list Tails-dev@boum.org https://mailman.boum.org/listinfo/tails-dev To unsubscribe from this list, send an empty email to tails-dev-unsubscr...@boum.org.

Hi, sajolida: That's pretty much out-of-scope for our project. I am not sure what you mean. It seems that ensuring the 'Incognito' experience functions as intended is within scope. We rely on whatever is available in the Linux kernel and Debian firmware packages, so the work should be done there and it will work in Tails. Okay. I agree that it is to be expected that drivers and whatnot are included upstream. No worries.

[Tails-dev] Physical Ethernet Adapter
Hi, Spencer: Does Tails natively support external internet adapters? intrigeri: Yes, most of them (USB ones). Is this limited to either ethernet or wifi? Some more questions: How is Tails planning on addressing the lack of built-in ethernet ports, now and in the near future? I ask because I am working on the internet experience, as it relates to the startup flow. Given the ever increasing lack of ethernet ports on devices, and the increasing use of Tails as a security distribution, it seems valuable to investigate support for ethernet adapters and external wireless cards, PCI, USB, Thunderbolt, and so on. What do you think?

I'm sorry but there's nothing we can do with this little info. Please send a complete bug report, that should include all the info our frontdesk people will need to help you debug the problem: https://tails.boum.org/doc/first_steps/bug_reporting/ Note that this mailing-list is not suitable for usage questions.

[Tails-dev] Physical Ethernet Adapter
Hi, Trying to use ethernet adapter on device with no ethernet port. Ethernet is supported on 2.0, it seems, with a device that has an ethernet port. Ethernet adapter is for linux kernel. Tried, what I understood, from #10522 and #9012 but didn't get very far. Any thoughts? Does Tails detect and load the respective driver only when ethernet is detected during boot?
