Comment on What should I do with 2 old machines (Mac Mini and HP Pavilion g7)?
nublug@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 week agoany other linux distro can do vms and containers, too. arguably it’s easier to do that than with proxmox.
but yeah, i wanted to check it out so threw it on the drive i pulled from my old broken laptop to check it out and discovered the wifi omission. i even tried to install base debian and ensure wifi was set up first then convert to a proxmox install. sadly, proxmox’s network stack is in conflict with any other linux network libs and actively uninstalled whichever one i had set up during the proxmox install.
i get their reasoning for not supporting wifi after looking it up but imho completely removing it as a possibility is a bit not cool, bro. i wasn’t trying to do any high availability or multiple nodes or anything lile that so it wouldn’t have been an issue for my use case anyway.

TIL I didn’t realize that Proxmox doesn’t support Wi-Fi. Well, now I can scratch one project off the list.
