    1. Up to you, but the most popular are that way for a reason. LiveUSB test drive whatever sounds good. I would recommend AGAINST messing with more advanced things like immutable distros, Arch, or Gentoo until you’re more familiar with your surroundings. Fedora or Ubuntu derivative is an easy first choice.
    2. Xournal is pretty popular and works really well with pen input
    3. Not long term. The constant I/O will kill the card pretty swiftly. USB flash or SSD would be better.
    4. Yup.




  • You can use the majority of “AI” things with non-Nvidia hardware, so don’t feel boxed in by that. Some projects just skew towards the Nvidia tool chain, but there are many ways to run it on AMD if you feel the need.

    The “Super” board is just an Orin Nano with the power profiles unlocked. There is literally no difference except the software, and if you bootstrap an Orin Nano with the latest Nvidia packages, they perform the same. At about 67 TOPS.

    For your project, you could run that on pretty much any kind of CPU or GPU. I wouldn’t pay $250 for the Super devkit when you get a cheaper GPU to do this, and CPU would work just a bit slower.





  • Well what you’re probably looking to setup is 802.11r, but I think you’re still going to run into issues because of the proximity of where your routers are.

    The issue you’re seeing is related to band shaping and signal-to-noise ratio. Your wifi client is actually the thing that is supposed to be more smoothly handling the transition between access points with your current setup, but it may not work as expected without the signal for one or the other being drastically worse. 802.11r helps with that. Results are hit or miss though, so don’t go buying new equipment just to try it out.

    If you had two OpenWRT devices though, I would just make a mesh and skip the above.
