I couldn't find the Gargoyle settings in the 'make gui' but I guess this gui is only for the OpenWRT part.
All Gargoyle options were inactive so I set these three directly in the file:
CONFIG_PACKAGE_gargoyle=y
CONFIG_PACKAGE_gargoyle-i18n=y
CONFIG_PACKAGE_plugin-gargoyle-i18n-English-EN=y
Building gave me this error:
Code: Select all
Package gargoyle is missing dependencies for the following libraries:
libericstools.so.1
Makefile:111: recipe for target '/home/john/gargoyle/custom-src/bin/x86/packages/base/gargoyle_1.9.0-6_x86.ipk' failed
make[4]: *** [/home/john/gargoyle/custom-src/bin/x86/packages/base/gargoyle_1.9.0-6_x86.ipk] Error 1
make[4]: Leaving directory '/home/john/gargoyle/custom-src/package/gargoyle'
package/Makefile:193: recipe for target 'package/gargoyle/compile' failed
make[3]: *** [package/gargoyle/compile] Error 2
Not sure if I need more Gargoyle options.

if you type
"make custom" from a clean repo, and then go to Administration-->Gargoyle Web Interface-->, the gargoyle gui options are all there.
I expect you are now missing dependencies for gargoyle.
I think you might need to start again with your config.

Thanks for your patience
Building went fine and the router is working perfect.
It's much more powerfull than the TL-WDR4300 I used before and now the router is no longer limiting my fibre connection.
Thanks again.

No problem

What speed are you pushing through it?

I had 60/60 for several years but my ISP changed plans so now I have 300/300 for nearly the same price. Might seem a bit excessive but I couldn't resist.
TL-WDR4300 couldn't deliver more than 80/80.
The x86 router deliver 100% and when doing speedtest 'top' shows 76% idle.

For those interested:
It's a HP Pavilion Slimline s7721.sc
Removed harddisk, DVD-drive and pcie graphics.
Added pcie dual 1000 mbit NIC.
In BIOS disable build-in NIC (only 100 mbit) and enable start at power-on.
USB keyboard didn't work but a PS/2 keyboard did.
(Keyboard and VGA only needed when testing the images I build.)
On Windows I used 'USB Image Tool' to write the image from archive gargoyle_1.9.x-x86-generic-combined-ext4.img.gz to a sd card.

@Lantis
Is it possible to add thus to our default builds?
For those who want extreme performance?

The NIC was the cheapest dual pcie I could find.

It's pcie x4 and works in the pc's x16 slot.
And it even has a low profile bracket

n8b,
I desperately need to mirror your build but I need instruction on some of the finer things you've done.
I have a PC here with a dual NIC i've installed, but how do I go about setting up a gargoyle boot USB?
I work for a small IT services company and we desperately need a router that can push 100mb/s with quotas, we're currently running off some TPlink routers that have been flashed but these max out at about 40mb/s. x86 seems like the way to go but I have no idea how to do it
I don't suppose there's any way you can upload your gargoyle image with instruction on how to write it to a USB that I can play with?
Regards,
Jayson
