uConsole CM5 Configuration

Adds the uConsole CM5 portable terminal to the infra flake with full hardware support and mesh networking capabilities.

Module Chain (Fixed)

The uconsole-cm5 module requires nixos-raspberrypi for hardware.raspberry-pi options:

nixos-raspberrypi.nixosModules.raspberry-pi-5.base  # Provides hardware.raspberry-pi
nixos-uconsole.nixosModules.uconsole-cm5            # uConsole hardware support

New: Reticulum Network Stack

Built from PyPI for off-grid mesh networking:

  • reticulum: The RNS stack (rnsd, rnsh)
  • nomadnet: Reticulum browser/messaging client
  • lxmf: Lightweight Mesh Exchange Protocol
  • sidechannel: Visual UI for Reticulum

Full Package List

Base: emacs-pgtk, git, ripgrep, fd, htop, tmux, neovim

HAM Radio: js8call, wsjtx, fldigi, pat, direwolf, chirp, hamlib, trustedqsl

SDR/RF: sdrpp, gqrx, rtl-sdr, inspectrum, soapysdr-with-plugins

Mesh/LoRa: meshtastic, reticulum, nomadnet, lxmf, sidechannel

Security: nmap, metasploit, aircrack-ng, kismet, bettercap, wireshark, burpsuite, hashcat, john, sqlmap

GPS/Maps: foxtrotgps, viking, gpsbabel

Verified

nix eval .#nixosConfigurations.uConsole.config.system.build.toplevel ✓

Deployment

After flashing uConsole eMMC and first boot:

nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#uConsole

Closes: #6 (replaced with correct module chain)

feat(uconsole): add Reticulum network stack packages 0efc7dec5d 
- reticulum: Reticulum Network Stack (from PyPI)
- nomadnet: Reticulum browser/messaging client
- lxmf: Lightweight Mesh Exchange Protocol
- sidechannel: Visual UI for Reticulum

Packages are built from PyPI using buildPythonPackage.
fix: correct sha256 hashes for Reticulum packages 60be45eb48 
- reticulum-0.7.0: sha256-Yku40tRpQh22m4HX142cU/VevHAEfgHZicKFOyp1U/o=
- nomadnet-0.5.2: sha256-WP4IrlKLzFP0U8/00mOo8D9Jp2ubr6Q0peKbw401Nhw=
- lxmf-0.5.1: sha256-2zwTgG283qx1Bt6TKaGJtcwPr2tCNOOIASu8RXC/QLE=
- sidechannel: removed (not available on PyPI)

Cross-compilation note: Full build requires aarch64 hardware or QEMU binfmt setup.
