mntmnwe’re working on reform200:38
mntmnbut also have been a bit busy finishing that amiga project (zz9000) which is stealing a bit of time from reform00:39
swivelany roadmap or high-level specs of the reform2 yet?00:39
mntmnwe’re working mostly on ergonomic/case improvements and less on raw technical things00:40
swivelno change on the display resolution?00:40
mntmnthe plan is to have several soc/motherboard options in the future00:40
mntmndisplay is ergonomic :D00:40
mntmnso, it is 1920x1080 and a bit bigger, less bezel00:40
mntmneDP00:40
Jookiamntmn: booting from SPI could be cool00:41
swivelnice, that sounds like something I'm likely to acquire00:41
mntmnnew keyboard layout, new switches, new caps, new trackball00:41
mntmnalmost full aluminum body00:41
mntmneasier assembly, more modular00:42
mntmnmore battery cells, better charging00:42
mntmnfirst new motherboard probably imx8m00:43
mntmnalso looking at imx8qm but there are not many good som options right now00:43

mntmnwe’ll dump a lot of new design soon.00:47
swivellooking forward to it00:51

mntmnthe imx (framebuffer) driver was removed from mesa and replaced by "kmsro" it seems https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/kusma/mesa/commit/41a0acd6a149ec9f47ea527ad08a2b29bf1ee6b221:41
mntmnstill have to figure out what that means for us21:41
swiveli'm no mesa expert but judging from what's removed in that commit, the imx gallium driver wasn't doing anything imx-specific, just a drm dumb buffer create22:00

mntmnyeah. i hope everything will just work TM22:06
swivelso is mesa unaccelerated on imx?22:14
adjtmswivel, no, etnaviv works for vivante gpus on imx22:15
adjtmmntmn, I suppose that the kmsro is a drm driver that only implements the modesetting interface...22:16
adjtmam I wrong?22:17
adjtmswivel, ah, if you mean 2d hardware acceleration I think that the answer is yes except if glamor works well with etnaviv22:19
swiveli meant 3d, mesa22:20
mntmnimx + etnaviv used to work together, because the framebuffer mgmt/display and the 3d gpu are distinct22:21
mntmnso imx would set up the display and etnaviv just renders to a memory location afaik22:22
swivelah ok22:22
mntmnmaybe "ro" in kmsro is readout or readonly or so?22:23
swiveli think it's "render only"22:23
mntmnah!22:23
adjtmmntmn, are you going to use LiFePO4 battery in reform 2?22:32

mntmnadjtm: yeah22:53
swivelhas anyone documented retrofitting classic thinkpad keyboards like the X40's to the reform?23:01
adjtmswivel, https://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-Make-a-USB-Laptop-Keyboard-Controller/23:07
adjtmnot specifically for reform...23:07
