Regarding the coreelec-ng21.2 version, there is an error message

A log error was found. Please see below.

[ 9.242975@1]- proc: unrecognized mount option "hidepid=invisible" or missing value

When mounting the proc filesystem (used for process information interaction), the invalid parameter hidepid=invisible was used.
hidepid is a parameter that controls the visibility of process information in the /proc directory. Its valid values are 0, 1, and 2, with the following meanings:
0: Process information is visible to all users;
1: Regular users cannot see processes belonging to other users;
2: More strict hiding (regular users can only see their own processes, and even process IDs of other users are hidden).
Since “invisible” is not a valid value for hidepid, the system fails to recognize this parameter.

It comes from systemd and old kernel interaction. It could be fixed but does it worth?

Why do you need /proc fs?

I checked the proc file system and found that it’s not needed. As long as it doesn’t cause any issues, it can be left unused.

Could you please advise whether the RTL8211F network card has been updated to the latest driver? Currently, I am using the stable version of CoreELEC-NG 21.2 instead of the nightly build, and I am not sure if the nightly build has been updated to the latest driver. Please reply when you have time.

Recently, when using the stable version to play movies, I encounter a slow loading issue. I mount a local network drive via CloudDrive2 for movie playback.

I think that device uses the RTL driver included with AML linux kernel 4.9. The ‘newest’ drivers are for newer kernels, and won’t be compatible with older kernels. If you need something newer try CE-NO to determine whether a newer driver helps.

Hello, based on the version I’m checking, it seems that this is not a driver natively included in the kernel, but rather a separately compiled one.
