Does anyone here exclusively use X without any other desktop environment or window manager?
Anyone here live in CLI with, at most, tmux?
Why would you even start X in that case?
Just use a tty, like on a server.

I use Windows because you don't get points for difficulty.

I could live with just CLI but it feels like too much of a hassle i'd have to setup alot of pre configurations and i'd be unable to view images properly.

you can view pictures on a framebuffer

Guess I'm going CLI as soon as the school decides to fix Eduroam then.

If only I could read PDF files on the command line...

What would be the point of using X if you just have a single terminal open?

Am I supposed to understand the logical connection between those two? What does wireless networking have to do with X and framebuffers?

They supposedly have some sort of weird network configuration that requires running a graphical proprietary daemon which also monitors students.

That's fucking bullshit. Also, I doubt it's true. I think you and source you got that from are misinformed.
>>55301550
Not quite that autistic, but I have been playing around with screen a bit.

fbi or fim (fbi improved)
>>55302311
It's just enterprise wpa2 probably require some sort of cert thats where that program comes in.
You can read pdf with the "less" command or fimgs/fbgs.
You can view pics with fim/fbi.

Who did this?
>>55302922
Please tell me you've learned to use screen -dRR to reattach
>>55302311
That is not a fundamental feature of Eduroam I can tell you that much, but perhaps they have made some of their own modifications (is that even allowed)?
>>55301912
I've had eduroam working with wpa_supplicant.
There's a bit of configuration and cert hassle you have to do but it's possible, look up some blog posts and other institutions support for it then modify for yours.

Images can't be displayed in tmux when using plain CLI.
