A new driver exposes the four GameCube controller sockets as HID devices that work with SDL / SDL2 as joystick devices.<br/> <img src="https://mastodon.sdf.org/system/media_attachments/files/115/686/439/014/509/982/original/3d4ceb87ed6e6693.png"> <br/> 2025-12-08T23:04:08Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs93s7xln4vhpunnl32m3uj0zhs608xlzlsx7w3rrq848vhsd62cyszyptvjch2f9rhh69dhuc9het0j6v6u2c26en6jw6j2y0kr5l6ms4fgv39kau Kind of silly but I added support for the Wii&#39;s AES engine to #NetBSD today. The Wi-Fi stack can use it along with the cryptographic disk driver cgd(4).<br/><br/>A quick test of cgd(4) on a USB flash drive in AES-128-CBC mode shows 4.4 MB/s with the software implementation and 15 MB/s with hardware acceleration.<br/><br/><a href="https://mail-index.netbsd.org/source-changes/2025/11/11/msg158907.html">https://mail-index.netbsd.org/source-changes/2025/11/11/msg158907.html</a> 2025-11-11T21:43:26Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsgpcl676ar9p37yhcx27krw4rnzlvnv3f3wk4ppm5uljlcedn77zqzyptvjch2f9rhh69dhuc9het0j6v6u2c26en6jw6j2y0kr5l6ms4fgtwuyvp Made some good progress with the Wii drive interface today.
