# Memory - 2026-04-14
## psb-gemma Bootstrap Trim
- Compared psb-gemma bootstrap (32KB) to 2890-bot (15.8KB) — 2× larger
- Moved to on-demand (memory/): BREWERY_LAYOUT, SESSION-STATE, HEARTBEAT, price_list
- Trimmed MEMORY.md from 9KB → 1.8KB
- Result: ~28KB → ~15.8KB bootstrap
- contextInjection "continuation-skip" is agents.defaults only (not per-agent)
- Session awareness gap: sessions_send reaches agent brain but doesn't post back to originating Telegram chat — pinned for future investigation
## GLM-5.1 Model Upgrade
- Added glm-5.1:cloud to Ollama provider models in openclaw.json
- psb-thinking primary: ollama/glm-5.1:cloud, fallback: ollama/minimax-m2.7
- Gateway restarted, model switched mid-session via /model default
- Context window: 128K → 200K
## GPU / Power
- P102-100 GPU not detected after reboot (only Quadro K600 visible)
- nvidia-smi fails — driver issue, needs investigation
- CasaOS server shutting down for **power supply upgrade** (Topher initiated 20:39 UTC)
## NeoPixel Flame Project
- 8×32 WS2812B matrix on Arduino Leonardo, pin 3
- Fire2012WithPalette based (FastLED library)
- Direction variable: flameHorizontal toggles fire orientation
- Custom ReducedWhiteFire_gp palette (reduced white levels)
- Handed off to drama teacher for testing
- Zigzag row wiring assumed (MATRIX_TYPE 1)
## Git Cleanup
- Removed .git directories from all 4 workspaces (not used)
- OpenClaw file saves are the actual persistence mechanism
## GPU / Network Conflict Investigation
- **Symptom:** P102-100 installed in slot 2 → NIC lights on during POST, go DARK after OS loads nvidia driver
- **NIC:** onboard Realtek RTL8111/8168 (bus 03:00.0, root port 00:1c.1, IRQ 17)
- **GPU:** currently Quadro K600 (bus 01:00.0, root port 00:01.0, also IRQ 17)
- **Shared IRQ 17** between NIC and GPU — nvidia driver likely steals/starves the interrupt
- **Motherboard:** Dell Alienware Aurora R3, BIOS A06 (2011), i7-2600K, 32GB DDR3
- **Not lane sharing** — different root ports, but shared IRQ
- **Slot 2 problem:** anything in slot 2 (00:01.1 → bus [02]) kills the NIC — confirmed with P102 and other cards
- **P102 in slot 2:** not even detected on PCIe bus (lspci shows bus [02] empty) — slot may be x4 electrical, P102 needs x16
- **Next step:** Move P102 to slot 1 (x16), remove K600 entirely (headless server doesn't need display)
- BIOS A06 is old — check for Dell Aurora R3 BIOS update
- USB ethernet adapter is additional fallback
## P102 in Slot 2 Test (23:10 UTC)
- P102 installed in slot 2 (lower slot)
- Onboard NIC: dead (enp3s0 gone) — confirms slot 2 kills NIC
- P102: NOT detected on PCIe bus at all (lspci -t shows bus [02] empty)
- WiFi: working on wlx90de80b811d7 at 192.168.0.18
- K600 still in slot 1, detected normally
- Conclusion: slot 2 can't initialize the P102 (likely x4 electrical, insufficient for P102 x16 requirement)
## P102 in Slot 1 Test (23:17 UTC)
- P102 moved to slot 1 (top, x16), K600 moved to slot 2
- P102: NOT detected on PCIe bus — lspci shows bus [01] empty
- Both 8-pin power connectors plugged in
- Passive cooling card (no fan) — heatsink not confirmed warm
- BIOS paused during PCIe training (Topher saw it) then continued
- No PCIe errors in dmesg — card simply not responding to link training
## P102-100 Verdict: DEAD
- Card powers on (heatsink warm) but PCIe link never trains
- Tried both slots, reseated, both 8-pin power connected
- No Above 4G Decoding option in Aurora R3 BIOS
- **Card has blown PCIe lane driver** — common on used mining GPUs
- Pulled from machine, K600 back in slot 1
## GPU Replacement Research
- Need: CUDA 5.0+, 6-8GB+ VRAM, fits Aurora R3 slot 1 (x16), 600W PSU
- Options ranked:
1. **Tesla P40 (24GB)** — ~$60-80, CUDA 6.1, best VRAM/$, passive (needs fan mod), 8-pin EPS
2. **Tesla M40 (24GB)** — ~$40-60, CUDA 5.2, even cheaper, passive
3. **GTX 1070 (8GB)** — ~$60-80, CUDA 6.1, consumer card, zero hassle
4. **GTX 1060 6GB** — ~$40-60, CUDA 6.1, cheapest "just works"
- Mining cards (P102, P104, etc.) — AVOID, high DOA rate
- Topher looking into options
## Missing Data Drives (23:47 UTC)
- sdc and sdd (large data drives) not detected after reboot
- Boot logs showed `DID_BAD_TARGET` on sdc and sdd during shutdown
- No /dev/sdc or /dev/sdd at all — not even as block devices
- Possible causes: SATA cable knocked loose during GPU swap, or SATA controller issue
- Topher checking physical cables now
- Current healthy drives: sda (Patriot Burst 447GB, OS), sdb+sde (SSD RAID1, /mnt/openclaw)
- RAID1 md127 is healthy [UU]
## Crash-bot Discord Agent (00:15-03:30 UTC)
- Created new Discord agent: **crash-bot** (bot name: Crash Override)
- Discord server: **HHS-Hackers** (ID: 1493763179338137641)
- Bot user ID: 1493764010494136512
- Workspace: /home/topher/.openclaw/workspace-crash-bot
- Model: GLM-5.1 cloud primary, MiniMax 2.7 fallback
- Tools denied: sessions_spawn, sessions_send, subagents, session_status, agents_list, gateway, cron, browser, nodes, tts, image, canvas
- Informationally isolated from PSB and 2890-bot
- Config: multi-account Discord (default=2890-bot, crash=Crash Override)
- Binding: crash account routes to crash-bot agent
- Guild config: requireMention=false (all channels)
- **PENDING:** Enable Message Content Intent + Server Members Intent in Discord Dev Portal
- **PENDING:** Add 2 trusted friends to Discord server
- **PENDING:** DM Crash Override bot to pair, then approve pairing code
- Error 4014 (missing privileged intents) blocking bot connection until enabled
- Bot token and server ID stored in openclaw.json
## New Discord Agent Project (00:15 UTC)
- Creating isolated Discord agent for 2 trusted friends
- Informationally isolated from 2890-bot and PSB
- Bot token received, setting up agent workspace and config
## WiFi Driver Setup (RTL8851BU)
- USB WiFi adapter: Realtek 802.11ax (0bda:b851) = RTL8851BU chipset
- morrownr/8852bu driver does NOT support b851 — wrong chip
- Working driver: fofajardo/rtl8851bu (compiled from source at /tmp/rtl8851bu)
- Module: 8851bu.ko installed to /lib/modules/6.11.0-29-generic/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/
- Auto-load: /etc/modules-load.d/8851bu.conf
- Netplan config: /etc/netplan/50-wifi.yaml (SSID: 0ubliette)
- Interface: wlx90de80b811d7, IP: 192.168.0.18
- chmod 600 on netplan yaml to fix permissions warning
- apt sources fixed: old-releases.ubuntu.com (Ubuntu Oracular EOL)
- Build deps installed: build-essential, dkms, git, iw, wpasupplicant
## Session Awareness Issue (pinned)
- sessions_send delivers to agent session but doesn't echo back to the originating Telegram group
- psb-gemma confirmed the update via sessions_send but didn't post in the group chat where Topher asked
- Future deep-dive needed on session bridging mechanics
## 22:34 UTC - Dreaming fired at 21:11 UTC
- Dreaming fired! New events.jsonl entry at Apr 14 21:11:12 UTC
- Query: "GPU P102-100 install network issue" — 4 results found
- short-term-recall.json updated: 15626 bytes
- DREAMS.md still NOT at root — same bug (writes to .dreams/ only)
- Dreaming time shifted: 21:11 instead of 03:00 — cron may have changed
