The state of automated testing at Armbian: 65 boards. 22 vendors. 20 SoC families. Real hardware, booted and tested every night. Cold boots. Warm reboots. Kernel switching. Networking. Performance. Power measurements. Serial console logs.
The longer-term goal?
Taking hardware validation directly into pull requests.

Lasers. Microscopes. $250K. One secured chip.
Ledger Donjon just showed how they cracked debug access on RP2350-A4, a break worthy of Raspberry Pi's own Hacking Challenge.

Firmware to turn the Raspberry Pi Pico W into a USB Wi-Fi adapter
cnx-software.com/2026/07/16/…
The pico-usb-wifi project uses the USB port in gadget mode to expose Ethernet and act as a bridge for the data going over the WiFi module.
This driverless design enables it to work on Windows, Linux, macOS, and most other operating systems. Performance is rather limited due to the USB 1.1 (12 Mbps) interface of the Pi Pico W.

Macintosh emulator for ESP32-P4 boards.
cnx-software.com/2026/07/05/…
This is a port of the BasiliskII Macintosh 68k emulator, bringing classic Mac OS (System 7.x through Mac OS 8.1) to portable ESP32-P4 embedded devices with touchscreen, USB peripherals, and WiFi support through an ESP32-C6 on the boards.
It currently works on @M5Stack Tab5 (5-inch) and @Waveshare00 ESP32-P4-WIFI6-Touch-LCD-10.1 (10.1-inch) devkits.
