O2 Joggler Forum

I have an OP branded v2 device (pair of speakers on the front of extended frame).
It has been my trusty bathroom “Joggler” for many years - booting Avaya and then into SQPOS303 and then running as LMS player.

For a while it has been occasionally (3 to 6 times a year) generating loud white noise with the only way to stop it being to turn off the power.

I would like to try latest BirdsLikeWires Debian on it just to see if it behaves better but I want to use it via WiFi … which is a documented problem for this device.

I have found “broadcom-sta” stuff on GitHub
https://github.com/lll-project/broadcom ... README.rst
which also says that some distributions - including Ubuntu - include the prebuilt driver.

Is this driver usable with OF2 devices?
If it is still the case that it cannot be shipped with birdslikewires Debian … could a script be put on the device that downloads, builds and installs it?

Hey Paul,
The white noise issue on your Joggler V2 is pretty common, usually caused by a hardware glitch or an audio driver bug.
As for the Wi-Fi, it’s a bit tricky on that model. The Broadcom driver (broadcom-sta) might fix it, but you’ll need to compile it yourself since it’s not included by default in BirdsLikeWires’ Debian build.
A good approach would be to create a script that automatically downloads, compiles, and installs the driver at boot, so you don’t have to manually modify the Debian image every time.
By the way, I came across some useful resources on tech projects and tips on sites like this one: https://www.feast-magazine.co.uk/, it could be a helpful reference for these kinds of tweaks.
