kfxI have the devterm.  I never use it because it's such a pain in the neck to get a regular linux distribution running on it, and you have to run their magic kernel etc.  Same problem as most arm machines, really.  The Reform is the only one trying to do better in this regard...01:19
ex-parrotyeah :( I have held off using mine until I can put a CM4 in it01:22
ex-parrotand put standard debian on there01:22
+ nsc (~nicolas@199-97-142-46.pool.kielnet.net)01:22
technomancyI've heard standard debian is supposedly an option on the regular pi now too; how does that work? I haven't done any pi stuff really since I got my pine64 but it used to be all raspbian which was kind of sketchy01:23
* nsc -> Guest919201:23
ex-parrotit's Just Worked for a wihle on the last few pis I tried it on01:25
technomancycool01:25
ex-parrotnot sure what the state of the art is either01:25
kfxit's my understanding the only available CM4 carrier board adapts from the CM3 slot and there's not enough room in the devterm for that01:27
kfxso someone (clockwork themselves?) will have to introduce a new mainboard with CM4 slots01:28
ex-parrotoh01:28
ex-parrotyeah that sounds possible, I'd sort of forgotten the details01:28
kfxit would be a great little device if the arm world weren't so terrible in general01:29
kfxthey offer those rockchip mainboards as well, but I learned my lesson about that crap from pine01:29
ex-parrotat least the motherboard is small and prob not gonna be too spendy01:29
ex-parrotyeah :(01:29
kfxI have the pinephone keyboard too and that is a good device, but the phone is so deeply useless that it also just sits on the shelf with its arm compatriots01:30
ex-parrotI thought mainline support for the pinephone was coming along fairly well?01:30
kfxwell I've had the thing for two years. to paraphrase Long Kiss Goodnight, I should think whatever's holding it up is either gone for good or there to stay01:32
kfxplus Pine pulled an Osborne, and shipped a better, incompatible device to all the interested developers01:32
kfxnothing kills the pinephone like a pinephone pro, eh01:33
ex-parrotmm01:33
ex-parrotI haven't even put the proper release moterboard in mine01:33
ex-parrotI'm still sitting on the 1.0 developer motherboard version with various board problems01:34
ex-parrotthey did at least send me an updated motherboard01:34
ex-parrotI'm not really interested in using it as a phone which prob helps my specific case01:34
ex-parrotI've been fairly underwhelmed by the efforts to make it in to a phone01:34
kfxI also got the new board.  I put it in and I cannot tell a difference, except maybe that firefox loads in twenty seconds instead of thirty01:35
ex-parrotI was mainly interested in the board fix to do with power drain ? USB power ? I have forgotten the details by now01:35
kfxbut it's another failing of the arm world, everything takes a massive lift to get into a useful state, and by the time it gets close there's some new shiny on the horizon and everyone just drops yesterday's tech on the floor and wanders off01:36
ex-parrotwhat do you reckon the solution is?01:36
kfxI don't think it's fixable with ARM's current business model01:37
sigridI got a fairphone 4. iirc support is in mainline and I definitely have a way to clone the kernel, build it and load it on the phone01:37
ex-parrotit seemed like device trees are at least better than the ACPI detection stuff on x86 01:37
ex-parrotwhere the kernel has to work out what it's running on fresh every time01:37
ex-parrotbut they're also a lot of work and very complicated01:38
kfxright now some design shop ships a list of requirements to a hardware shop, and as far as I can tell the hardware shop throws everything they have into a bucket and shakes it until something falls out that meets 80% of the requirements01:38
technomancyrisc-v is gonna change everything01:39
technomancy</obligatory>01:39
ex-parrotty :P01:39
kfxthat's one thing I have to hand to Pine6401:40
kfxno matter what else, they delivered a risc-v product that works as advertised01:40
kfxsure, it's a soldering iron, not a computer, but at least they DID it01:41
ex-parrotthe pinecil is really nice01:41
ex-parrotI got the clear cased version, opened it up and tacked a WS2812 RGB LED in to an unused IO pin on the board01:42
ex-parrotbut I never really got the drivers to work well enough for it01:42

BoostisbetterRegarding the review from Ars yesterday: I think I might be so much more patient when it comes to computer, because of how I cut my teeth with them growing up. My first computer was 8088 based. I tried to run everything on that, and I spent a lot of time waiting for things to load. 13:00

mntmnBoostisbetter: same, mine was z80 based ;)13:01
BoostisbetterThat 8088 was ancient by the time I got it in 93, but even today the XT line is still so capable. The HP 200 LX is a great example of that. 13:01

Boostisbetteryou know one thing I really appreciate with the Reform is that it is basically always on. Even when suspended it starts back up super fast. It reminds me of th HP line of LX and Omnibooks, that had instant on abilities. 21:14
technomancymine is always on because I never bother to suspend because I don't leave the house because omicron >_<21:19
BoostisbetterI like suspend just because it allows the CPU to cool down some. Still stays warm, but goes from 45-50C to around 30C. 21:19
erlehmannwhy do computers take forever to boot anyway21:20
erlehmanni mean a VCR was basically instant on21:21
erlehmannso is a microwave oven21:21
Boostisbetterthe BIOS is doing a systems check for the most part. Trust me, you don't want to really boot without it. 21:21
kfxI do!   That's why I use suspend!21:31
BoostisbetterI think that this reason is why suspend became a thing to begin with .21:31
BoostisbetterI mean occasionally the Reform will mess up on the resume, and I'll have to circle 1 it. 21:32
BoostisbetterBut so far that hasn't seemed to mess up my install or anything else. It fires back up without issue, and I just briefly set it all back up. 21:32
sigridso far I only had one hang and it happened during suspending. resume worked 100% of the time21:32
sigridI was wondering whether it makes sense to put lpc into deep sleep on suspend as well21:34
Boostisbetter> so far I only had one hang and it happened during suspending. resume worked 100% of the time21:42
BoostisbetterI wish someone could check my suspend script, I'm just not sure I have it right. 21:42
BoostisbetterHint hint sigrid: hahaha22:17
kfxyou should pastebin it in case someone is willing to review it22:19
