mntmntechnomancy: you want more like 60W00:49
mntmntechnomancy: the original supply is 24V, 2.5A00:49
mntmnyou can use a smol supply but then it will charge more slowly, if that's ok for you00:50
vagrantccharging the reform for mee seems to usually spike around 60W or so, and fairly quickly down to more like 45W00:50
mntmnsounds about right00:51
vagrantcusing a 19V input ... not sure if there's a lot of difference with different voltages (used almost as high as 28V occasionally)00:52
vagrantcACTION hasn't had any luck with the patches to upstream u-boot :/00:53
mntmnvagrantc: sorry to hear00:56
mntmnalternatively there's barebox00:56
mntmnit has support for reform upstreamed00:56
vagrantcoh!01:04
vagrantci maintain u-boot in debian, but maybe i should add barebox for good measure :)01:04
vagrantcor maybe not :)01:05

bkeysHas anyone gotten an OS other than debian/ubuntu working on the Reform?16:41
mntmnbkeys: yeah, i've seen gentoo, arch, nix, lfs i think16:51
bkeysAny redhat based stuff?16:51
bkeysI have a pinebook pro I am not that happy with, if I knew the Reform had a path where I could run Fedora on it with good hardware support I'd gladly save up to get one16:55
mntmnhaven't heard, but it also shouldn't be a problem16:55
mntmntheoretically you can run any userland on it if you use the supplied kernel + dtb16:55
eerySince the graphics are just etnaviv/mesa I'd guess it'd run okay17:07

mntmnmesa has all the patches we need now afaik17:10
mntmnnext week i'll look into if we can migrate to unpatched mesa in debian too17:11

mntmnkfx: how's the suspend situation on the pbp?19:17
swivelif it's not good that doesn't bode well for the pinephone pro :/19:22
mntmnmaybe suspend is not necessary if it can freqscale really low?19:23
vagrantcnot that low19:24
slmy keyboard was delivered :)19:26
swiveljudging from the reviews of both librem5 and pinephone the battery life is lacking in both, but i haven't used either yet19:27
vagrantcthe reglar pinephone doesn't have amazing battery life, and i even only use it with the modem disabled19:28
kfxabout half the time the pbp doesn't suspend at all, and the other half it doesn't wake up19:29
kfxthere is some disagreement about why19:29
kfxpinephone suspends fine, but then doesn't wake up fast enough to handle incoming calls19:30
mntmnsl: nice @ keyboard19:33
mntmnkfx: ok, hmm19:34

bibliocarokay, so I posted a topic on the form, and follow the advice, but I still seem to be having trouble.19:51
bibliocarI have an ext4 file system on an sd card with a full linux install, write "sd" in reform-boot-media, which on the emmc, with the switch I set to boot from emmc.20:01
bibliocarI"m probably doing something simple wrong.20:02
bibliocarokay, nevermind, I see it.20:05
bibliocaryou have to run the boot config script20:05

mntmnbibliocar: i think you currently can't boot from emmc -> sd20:57
mntmnbibliocar: that's what you're trying to do? your bootloader (and switch) is on emmc, but your linux on SD?20:58
bibliocaryes, exactly.20:58
mntmnbibliocar: ok to make that work you would need to flash the u-boot file for the sd card onto the emmc20:58
mntmnor hang on, i think there's a better solution20:59
mntmnbibliocar: forget what i wrote21:00
bibliocarokay.21:00
mntmnbibliocar: the better solution would be to customize /sbin/reform-init on the emmc so that it would mount the sd card https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-system-image/-/blob/main/reform2-imx8mq/reform-tools_1.0-7/sbin/reform-init#L2921:00
bibliocaroh, that sounds pretty simple.21:01
bibliocarI'll write it up on the forum if I get it to work.21:01
vagrantcis that a limitation of the boundary-u-boot ? upstream u-boot should be able to boot arbitrary devices ...21:01
mntmnbibliocar: before line 28 you can insert:21:02
mntmnelif [ "$BOOTPREF" == "sd" ]; then21:02
mntmnecho "Booting from SD."21:02
mntmn(before the else)21:02
mntmnyou can do that because BOOTPART is already "/dev/mmcblk1p1" by default21:02
mntmnbut it is not used21:02
bibliocarokay.21:03
bibliocarI'll be doing that manually in nano so it might take me a moment.21:04
* mark__ -> mjw21:18
bibliocarokay, nothings changed, but that may be to problems on my end. I should probably try to install the default debian image to my sd card.21:24
mntmnbibliocar: you changed /sbin/reform-init on the emmc yes?21:25
mntmnbibliocar: and you wrote sd in /reform-boot-medium on the emmc yes?21:26
- bkeys (QUIT: Quit: bkeys) (~Thunderbi@66.115.189.236)21:26
bibliocaroh, it should prompt me to hit enter if something wrong with my install, shouldn't it? I haven't been getting that. Yes, I added the elif clause. Maybe there's a typo, let me look.21:29
mntmnbibliocar: what happens instead?21:33
bibliocarit just boots to the emmc debian install. It has grey text, then colored text. I don't think I can easily grab the output?21:34
bibliocaroh, I know what I did wrong.21:35
bibliocarI left out the dollar sign.21:35
bibliocaromg, it works!21:37
mntmnah21:37
mntmncool! what did you boot?21:38
mntmnit is a very interesting setup btw that you are trying, good for testing different distros i guess21:38
bibliocarKISS linux. I now have a working kiss linux install.21:38
bibliocarit's a source built distro that was very hard to get to this point, I'm surprised it worked first try.21:38
mntmncool, i hadn't heard about it21:39
mntmnthis one? https://kisslinux.org/21:39
bibliocaryeah, that's the one.21:39
mntmninteresting also because it says x86_6421:39
mntmnfeel free to post about it in community!21:39
bibliocarYes, I'm using the glasnost fork.21:39
bibliocarThis was exciting and rewarding, thank you. I"m glad I came to IRC.21:40
mntmnare all packages built from source?21:40
mntmnincl firefox etc?21:40
bibliocarooof, well, it's bootstrapped on reform. I'm scared to try compling firefox.21:41
mntmnok, got it. firefox will probably not link on reform. IIRC it needs more than 4GB ram to link.21:41
bibliocarI had to make a swap partition in order to get clang to compile.21:41
mntmnheh21:42
bibliocarokaay, thank you. I need to go eat, and maybe lay down. I'll do a write up later.21:42
mntmncool, enjoy21:42
