| rick_ | is there currently a way to tell the firmware to cap the battery charging at a specific cab? like 80%? i heard its better for batteries when they pluged in for a longer period of time. i use the pocket as my daily driver and when i'm at home, so its mostly plugged in. Or doesn't make e difference with these kind of batteries? | 09:33 |
|---|---|---|
| minute | rick_: not yet. but sounds like a good idea to implement | 11:20 |
| minute | rick_: there isn't a mechanism yet to configure charging settings/behavior from linux, but that could be useful to think about (cc ch) | 11:21 |
| [tj] | is there an updated timeline on rk3588 module orders? | 11:30 |
| minute | [tj]: yes i think the updated table will be deployed very soon on support.mnt.re | 11:38 |
| [tj] | thanks | 11:38 |
| rick_ | minute thanks for the info ^^ btw i hope everything goes well with your surgery. pls let yourself fully recover before head again into workmode :3 | 11:59 |
| gordon1 | minute: so i pulled the heatsink from my reform classic, covered bottom in polyimide tape almost completely, sans square for the CPU and it looks like it helped with DMA dmesg issue, i didn't observe those in dmesg for quite some days now, which really puzzles me because i don't think i can spot any component that is tall enough to cause interference with heatsink... | 12:08 |

| rwa_ | hm, seems like something (i.e. my own actions or changes related to reform-tools 1.83) "killed" my system, it now drops to an initramfs shell | 13:15 |
| rwa_ | ok, he can't find the nvme anymore...gonna flash an sd card and see if that boots | 13:29 |
| josch | oh crap sorry | 13:42 |
| josch | rwa_: did you also flash a new u-boot? | 13:43 |
| rwa_ | yes, i did - the first reboot after updating reform-tools and reform2-lpc-dkms worked, then i updated uboot on emmc | 13:46 |
| josch | rwa_: what's your platform? | 13:48 |
| + chomwitt (~chomwitt@2a02:85f:9a0a:f200:1ac0:4dff:fedb:a3f1) | 13:48 | |
| rwa_ | it told me to check that nvme has no /boot/boot.scr - maybe i missed something and there has been one, /boot has been on emmc until now | 13:48 |
| josch | classic reform with rk3588 dsi, right? | 13:48 |
| rwa_ | correct | 13:48 |
| josch | rwa_: when you flashed u-boot there should've been a warning message -- did that appear? | 13:48 |
| rwa_ | kernel log looks fine to the point its looking for / on nvme, so obviously it knows that / is on nvme but nvme does not show up in /dev when it drops to busybox | 13:53 |
| rwa_ | a warning about checking that no boot.scr is there on nvme? yes that did show up | 13:54 |
| josch | okay, good | 13:54 |
| josch | damn i'm sorry this happened | 13:54 |
| josch | i'll do the upgrade test again | 13:54 |
| josch | you had the standard reform-setup-encrypted-disk setup? | 13:54 |
| josch | /boot on emmc and luks on nvme? | 13:55 |
| - paperManu (QUIT: Ping timeout: 244 seconds) (~paperManu@146.71.9.156) | 14:02 | |
| rwa_ | no luks, /boot on emmc and a plain / on nvme | 14:07 |
| josch | rwa_: and your / on nvme, does the /boot direltory in it contain anything? | 14:08 |
| rwa_ | i'll check that later | 14:11 |
| rwa_ | sd card with trixie image won't boot successfully, the display turns on and after a while turns off again | 14:12 |
| rwa_ | gonna try a sid image from mnt | 14:12 |
| josch | rwa_: just trixie or trixie+backports? | 14:14 |
| rwa_ | ah, my bad - wrong image | 14:26 |

| rwa_ | ok, Trixie Backports image on sd card boots fine, /boot on nvme is emtpy | 15:15 |
| josch | rwa_: but does it see the nvme? You said that it does not show up in /dev in busybox rescue shell | 15:31 |
| rwa_ | yes, the system booted from sd card can see both the emmc and the nvme | 15:32 |
| rwa_ | i only updated u-boot on emmc iirc, not on nvme | 15:32 |
| josch | rk3588 will not read u-boot from nvme | 15:33 |
| josch | since you can boot from sd-card at least u-boot itself on your emmc is not borked | 15:33 |
| gordon1 | btw can i force the boot from sd somehow, for example if emmc has right magic but broken u-boot? Will rk3588 boot from sd card first and then fall back to emmc? | 15:35 |
| rwa_ | i'll update reform-tools to 1.83 on this image and check again what reform-check says | 15:35 |
| josch | gordon1: yes, the order with new u-boot is: sd, nvme, emmc, usb | 15:37 |
| rwa_ | ah, let me try something | 15:37 |
| gordon1 | josch: yeah, but that assumes u-boot on emmc works, doesn't it? | 15:37 |
| josch | gordon1: yes, if u-boot on emmc is borked, you soft-bricked your device. rk3588 is not imx8mq | 15:38 |
| josch | with imx8mq there was a dip switch which allowed you to select where the som is supposed to read u-boot from | 15:38 |
| gordon1 | yeah, so i need to unleash my rkdeveltool then i guess | 15:38 |
| josch | gordon1: this is also why reform-flash-uboot prints a warning if you attempt to write u-boot to emmc on rk3588 | 15:39 |
| gordon1 | i wonder which usb then i need to use | 15:39 |
| gordon1 | for rkdeveltool | 15:39 |
| rwa_ | omg, fixed it | 15:40 |
| josch | wow what was it? | 15:41 |
| rwa_ | completely unrelated to reform-tools update | 15:41 |
| cwebber | hey everyone! | 15:41 |
| josch | _o/ | 15:41 |
| cwebber | minute: can I just say the Quasar updates have me HYPED | 15:41 |
| gordon1 | oh ffs https://wiki.t-firefly.com/en/iCore-3588Q/_images/upgrade_maskrom_test_points_core.jpg | 15:41 |
| cwebber | keep it up keep it upppppp | 15:41 |
| gordon1 | i think i'll postpone u-boot experiments | 15:42 |
| josch | gordon1: oups :) | 15:42 |
| cwebber | josch: from a week ago https://mastodon.social/@mntmn/115845437014197190 | 15:42 |
| josch | gordon1: no, you can experiment: the trick is to zero out emmc and then rk3588 will fall back to trying sd-card | 15:42 |
| gordon1 | also still have no idea where is the usb i need to use | 15:42 |
| cwebber | blender running etc | 15:43 |
| cwebber | and also https://mastodon.social/@mntmn/115854048170080042 | 15:43 |
| josch | cwebber: and it supposedly stays very cool as well (so maybe extra little power draw) | 15:43 |
| ch | gordon1: yeah the maskrom stuff is annoying there :( | 15:44 |
| gordon1 | ch: oh, so do you know which use then if you tried it? | 15:44 |
| gordon1 | or how to get to usb i guess more correct question | 15:45 |
| rwa_ | josch: reform-tools told me that there the uboot is using extlinux.conf but boot.scr is available as well - and i moved extlinux.conf away cause i thought i don't need it anyway :D | 15:45 |
| josch | cwebber: though it has less connectivity options compared to rk3588 (pci-e etc) and it cannot do kvm was the last thing that lucie told me | 15:45 |
| rwa_ | so it was PEBKAC all the way | 15:45 |
| josch | rwa_: you had a boot.scr somewhere? where? | 15:46 |
| ch | gordon1: i tried it but failed. zeroed uboot on emmc then to avoid fiddling around | 15:46 |
| cwebber | josch: ah well that's a little bit too bad but wasn't that similar with the banana pi? | 15:47 |
| josch | gordon1, ch: these days, reform-flash-uboot has a --zero option which allows you to zero out u-boot without wiping your partition table :) | 15:47 |
| rwa_ | josch: I: probably booting via /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf (/boot/boot.scr also exists) | 15:47 |
| cwebber | lost one input but used an adapter to put in my ssd | 15:47 |
| gordon1 | i guess i can always order carrier board from firefly | 15:47 |
| rwa_ | is the output of reform-tools | 15:47 |
| josch | cwebber: a311d can do kvm just fine | 15:47 |
| cwebber | oh I meant the inputs | 15:47 |
| josch | rwa_: hrm... i still don't understand -- how did that mess up your boot? | 15:47 |
| josch | cwebber: ah yes, a311d also doesn't have many pci-e options | 15:48 |
| rwa_ | i messed it up myself by removing extlinux.conf i guess | 15:48 |
| - RandyK (QUIT: Ping timeout: 252 seconds) (~RandyK@user/randyk) | 15:48 | |
| cwebber | I think that's ok becausee like the bpi it also provides its own wifi chip | 15:48 |
| rwa_ | now extlinux.conf is back in place and it works again like it did before | 15:48 |
| josch | rwa_: do you think there is something reform-check can do to warn you? | 15:48 |
| + RandyK (~RandyK@user/randyk) | 15:48 | |
| cwebber | that's really great that it stays cool | 15:48 |
| rwa_ | not sure, maybe it's just me still not fully understanding the boot process :) | 15:49 |
| cwebber | btw when I opened my pocket i noticed there was a surprise extra usb-c port on the motherboard, curious whether that's hooked up to anything on the rk3588, I imagine not?? | 15:49 |
| josch | cwebber: i haven't heard of the wifi yet -- i'm cautious about that because qualcomm wifi is a complete mess in other places (out of tree driver) | 15:49 |
| josch | rwa_: can you elaborate? | 15:49 |
| [tj] | josch: it is connected to the sysctl | 15:50 |
| [tj] | errr rwa_ | 15:50 |
| josch | cwebber: you mean the usb port to flash sysctl? | 15:50 |
| cwebber | oh is that what it is | 15:50 |
| josch | cwebber: but you have to move the jumpers to use it | 15:50 |
| [tj] | yeah it is the get out of jail card | 15:51 |
| cwebber | josch: oh really re: wifi? that's too bad | 15:51 |
| cwebber | tj: cool thx | 15:51 |
| josch | cwebber: i'm not saying it's bad with quasar, i'm saying it's bad elsewhere | 15:51 |
| josch | so it's at least not something to take for granted without checking first | 15:51 |
| josch | cwebber: for example imx8m+ has the Qualcomm QCA9377 wifi chip which requires really bad stunts to get working :/ | 15:52 |
| josch | the out-of tree driver is 767781 lines of code and take 20 minutes to compile on imx8m+ | 15:53 |
| josch | this makes it a bad fit to ship as a dkms module | 15:53 |
| josch | it is the one big thing where MNT repo and reform.d.n differ | 15:54 |
| cwebber | hm hm yeah | 15:54 |
| josch | lucie decided to build these 0.8 mill lines of code on MNT gitlab CI, put that into a deb and "apt install" that deb as part of the kernel post installation hook | 15:54 |
| josch | and we cannot have wifi in debian installer because it doesn't allow for dkms drivers | 15:55 |
| josch | and even if it would, who wants to wait 20 minutes for the driver to compile before debian installar starts? | 15:55 |
| josch | but maybe everything is okay | 15:55 |
| josch | but this mess makes me cautious about qualcomm | 15:55 |
| cwebber | I see yeah | 15:56 |
| rwa_ | afaiu u-boot either uses extlinux.conf OR boot.scr for booting the full kernel after initramfs, as both extlinux.conf and boot.scr are there i assumed that extlinux.conf can be removed as u-boot will pick up boot.scr | 15:56 |
| cwebber | btw have I mentioned I have been daily driver'ing my pocket for about a month now? | 15:57 |
| josch | rwa_: u-boot prefers extlinux.conf to boot.scr and uses whichever it finds first to load both kernel and initramfs | 15:57 |
| josch | rwa_: you can remove extlinux.conf but only once you made sure that your boot.scr is fine (needs flash-kernel to have it generate one) | 15:57 |
| josch | cwebber: nice! \*/ | 15:57 |
| rwa_ | thanks for the clarification | 15:58 |
| josch | i haven't had brownouts due to the old charger board for the pocket for a while | 15:58 |

| rwa_ | josch: recreated /boot/boot.scr with flash-kernel (seems to have been already updated though, file timestamp was from today), moved extlinux.conf away but again it does not see the nvme anymore on reboot | 16:05 |
| josch | rwa_: then what was the problem you had solved earlier? | 16:06 |
| gordon1 | okay, so one of the USB OTGs from icore is routed to external usb port (one closest to HDMI), so theoretically if you enter maskrom and use usb a2a cable you can potentially connect it to rkdeveloptool | 16:09 |
| gordon1 | not sure if that can work on any OTG port or only on specific one | 16:10 |
| rwa_ | josch: not sure i get your question - moving away extlinux.conf broke my boot process, moving it back in place made it work again with the boot.scr that has been created at 12:52 during the update of reform-tools to 1.83 | 16:20 |
| rwa_ | when the system successfully booted i ran "sudo flash-kernel" to update boot.scr, this was successfull, but the system wont see the nvme anymore during boot | 16:21 |
| rwa_ | even if extlinux.conf is there | 16:21 |
| rwa_ | turns out that the newly "boot.scr" is different than the "boot.scr.bak" from 12:52 - after restoring the later file to boot.scr boot works again | 16:23 |
| rwa_ | not sure if it's me creating a mess cause of limited understanding of boot process | 16:25 |
| josch | rwa_: theory: you have differing kernel cmdline parameters depending on whether you use boot.scr or extlinux.conf | 16:46 |
| josch | rwa_: can you share both so that we can have a look? | 16:46 |
| josch | rwa_: can you share your /proc/cmdline in the non-working case from initramfs busybox rescue shell? | 16:47 |

| minute | josch: cwebber: we'll continue to use intel wifi | 17:22 |
| josch | minute: i remember you listing some reasons why to stick with rk3588 and pci among them -- did you mean something else? | 17:22 |
| minute | as it is the best one so far | 17:22 |
| minute | josch: max 16gb ram i think but that doesn't matter much now in this new ramless world | 17:22 |
| josch | haha yes | 17:22 |
| minute | josch: it just doesn't have that much native pcie lanes as the rk. so we have to split up pcie 2.0 with an external pcie packet switch. | 17:23 |
| minute | but it should still be enough bandwidth for most use cases i think | 17:24 |
| siviq | 0/ | 17:24 |
| minute | i think the only real downside is no kvm because of gunyah hypervisor | 17:24 |
| minute | but who knows maybe one day they'll allow to turn it off... | 17:25 |
| minute | or someone cooks up an exploit | 17:25 |

| spew | has anyone built a stand-alone thing for the reform trackball? | 20:08 |
| spew | I would definitely buy a single combined standalone keyboard/trackball case | 20:10 |
| minute | a longer time ago we had some prototypes but they weren't very ergonomic yet :D | 20:11 |
| josch | spew: i've built a standalone bluetooth reform keyboard/trackball thing in the past | 20:11 |
| josch | (and yes, not ergonomic at all) | 20:11 |
| josch | minute: but i hear that there is now the option to do the same with the pocket keyboard :) | 20:11 |

| vagrantc | "hidden" as a Recommends on dnsmasq-base in network-manager? :) | 21:12 |
| minute | ah recommends... | 21:12 |
| minute | there's no user facing error message afaik if that's missing though | 21:12 |
| minute | (you have to know to check NetworkManager journal) | 21:13 |
| vagrantc | not installing recommends presumes that you know what you are doing and know how to check for weird problems | 21:13 |
| vagrantc | and to ... expect weird problems | 21:14 |
| minute | yeah i don't think i'd install networkmanager manually, so it could be that it's an issue with how our system image is built | 21:14 |
| minute | or maybe i did strange things with this reform next | 21:14 |
| minute | anyway, could be nothing, just wanted to confirm | 21:15 |
| josch | i still think it's an anti-pattern of "user friendly" interfaces to hide error messages... In this case it's a missing recommends, okay but this design pattern is not limited to those and it feels like on other operating systems: without a good error message you cannot even ask somebody who potentially could help you :( | 21:15 |
| josch | minute: yes, system images are built without recommends -- otherwise the size would be blown out of proportion because of what gnome pulls in with recommends enabled | 21:16 |
| vagrantc | uh-oh. | 21:16 |
| - spew (QUIT: Quit: nyaa~) (~spew@user/spew) | 21:17 | |
| josch | vagrantc: even without recommends we have 20 GiB per gitlab CI run | 21:17 |
| minute | josch: ok, then we should add dnsmasq-base | 21:20 |
| rwa_ | josch: non working case has an additional "plymouth.ignore-serial-consoles" that is not there when booting from sd card | 21:23 |
| josch | rwa_: if you don't have plymouth installed that should make a difference | 21:24 |
| - vagrantc (QUIT: Quit: leaving) (~vagrant@2600:3c01:e000:21:7:77:0:50) | 21:25 | |
| rwa_ | josch: removed this arg, now its booting again | 21:29 |
| josch | o0 | 21:29 |
| rwa_ | i wonder if this is not related to anything in boot.scr or extlinux.conf but some sort of race condition | 21:29 |
| rwa_ | or my head is just nuts today | 21:30 |
| rwa_ | lol, rebooted again and nvme is gone again | 21:31 |
| josch | rwa_: without you changing anything? | 21:31 |
| josch | maybe something changed in kernel 6.18 which makes your nvme flaky? | 21:31 |
| rwa_ | jep, only said "shutdown" in gnome and started with circle+1 | 21:32 |
| rwa_ | iCm running 6.17.13nfrom trixie backports | 21:32 |
| josch | oh wait, so not related to 6.18 | 21:32 |
| josch | rwa_: and not related to plymouth.ignore-serial-consoles either, this was just a fluke, yes? | 21:33 |
| josch | minute: dnsmasq-base will be added as part of this commit https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-debian-packages/-/merge_requests/155/diffs?commit_id=d0f85f6964604dfac6ec3ebdd7f8900834e9695a | 21:34 |
| rwa_ | yes, plymouth param seems unrelated | 21:34 |
| josch | minute: i also had to manually install it on my pocket reform where i need dnsmasq for tethering with classic reform | 21:34 |
| minute | josch: thanks! | 21:39 |
| josch | rwa_: another question: how do you get the new reform-tools if you are on trixie+backports? | 21:39 |
| minute | rwa_: try reseating the ssd | 21:39 |
| rwa_ | donwnloaded the packages for reform-tools and reform2-lpc-dkms from debian mirror and installed manually | 21:40 |
| rwa_ | will do so | 21:40 |
| josch | rwa_: should work maybe but be careful as the packages you are using were built on unstable and not on a trixie system | 21:41 |
| rwa_ | yes, i'm aware - worked without issues until now (if it is related to reform-tools at all) | 21:42 |
