mntmnbluerise: promising00:01
blueriseYup. That's why I'm interested in it.00:04
blueriseWell, no, actually because we have good Rockchip support in OpenBSD00:04
blueriseand rockchip offer higher performance SoCs than those i.MX8M ones....00:06

kfxbluerise: is there an explicit list of which SoCs OpenBSD supports?  I've been able to boot it on approximately none of my rockchip devices00:31
blueriseRK3399 works well, RK3288 should work as well00:34
blueriseYou need to supply U-Boot+DTB yourself00:34
bluerisethere's too many devices for us to supply U-Boot+DTB for each, that's the issue with all those cheap things00:34
kfxthanks00:36
blueriseThough for some we also build u-boot00:37
bluerisehttps://github.com/openbsd/ports/blob/master/sysutils/u-boot/Makefile#L7700:37
blueriseThose are then of the u-boot package http://cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/packages/aarch64/u-boot-aarch64-2021.10p3.tgz00:38
blueriseand we also have a package with all current Linux dtbs http://cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/packages/aarch64/dtb-5.14p1.tgz00:38

joschmntmn: your hourly cronjob for refreshing reform-debian-repo works! I also see that the pipeline for reform-system-image finally succeeded within 38 minutes. Can you re-trigger the reform-system-image pipeline for sysimage-v3 so that it picks up the latest changes from reform-debian-repo? Thanks!07:11

Guest4905josch: can you also trigger building linux-kbuild-* package?  I'd like to continue running the 5.17+ kernel but need some dkms modules to build08:35

joschnsc_: hi, I'm not sure what you are talking about -- can you rephrase?08:55
nsc_When attempting to build dkms modules (e.g. via 'apt install zfs-dkms'), linux-headers need to be installed.  But with the package from reform-debian-repo, the required linux-kbuild-5.17 package is missing:09:06
nsc_ linux-headers-5.17.0-rc3-arm64 : Depends: linux-headers-5.17.0-rc3-common (= 5.17~rc3-1~exp1+reform1) but it is not installable09:06
nsc_                                  Depends: linux-kbuild-5.17 (>= 5.17~rc3-1~exp1+reform1) but it is not installable09:06
joschah indeed, yes we can build linux-kbuild-5.17 as well09:08
nsc_great, thanks!  And thanks a lot for all your pending work!!09:09

joschGuest4164: thanks for prompting! This is yet another reason why it's useful to build the kernel as a Debian package instead of just building straight from kernel.org git and I didn't think of that use-case before.09:22
joschGuest4164: linux-kbuild-* is built now: https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-debian-packages/-/jobs/640/artifacts/browse/repo/pool/main/l/linux/ Within an hour that package should also land on the mirror.09:57
Boostisbettermntmn: can you use the Reform with the batteries disconnected from the mainboard but the power adapter plugged in via the barrel connector? 10:29

Boostisbettermntmn: I think this is something you just brag about a bit more on the product features page. The ability to check battery status whether the computer is on, suspended, or off is something no other laptop, I'm aware of, can do. On top of that very few will actually work without a battery. (I'm only aware of Thinkpads and the Framework)13:16
Boostisbettermntmn: and while it isn't practical, the Reform is an excellent lipofe charger. 13:16
mntmnBoostisbetter: hmm true. old ibooks/macbooks had this feature, where they had a button on the battery and a bunch of LEDs that showed the charge13:16
mntmnbut they removed that later13:16
Boostisbettermntmn: just = should13:17
Boostisbetteryeah, it is truly disheartening how many good features were removed to encourage the ridiculous product refresh cycles and ravenous purchasing. 13:18
BoostisbetterI mean I wouldn't have a problem with that if all the products today still supported repair, longevity, etc. 13:18
mntmni discussed the new battery board with 3 different engineers now (mitch altman yesterday) and i think i'm ready to order the first pcbs13:18
mntmn(the one that is supposed to disconnect all battery lines if total voltage is <20V)13:19
Boostisbettermntmn: as with most things MNT has on the drawing board count me in on ordering them when ready13:19
mntmnBoostisbetter: hehe for sure!!13:19
Boostisbettermntmn: Although the Pocket Reform and that mini trackball has me drooling. 13:19
Boostisbettermntmn, pocket reform keyboard as well. 13:20
mjwmntmn, when do you think that new battery board will be available?13:35
mntmnmjw: after i've built, tested and confirmed it's good!13:36
mntmnbtw a bunch of our packages have arrived at mouser13:36
mntmnthe bulk is still waiting for air traffic space though13:36
mjwI still want to sent in my mnt reform for a "refresh" since I still haven't been able find someone to do the soldering and I would love to get the newer trackball and have someone look at why some batteries always drain till empty (might be the soldering, but maybe I did fry the battery board?)13:38
mjwcurrently I am simply running without batteries, which is fine, I don't much move on this couch anyway :)13:38
mjwBut I also don't want to part from it because I love working on it so much.13:39
mntmnmjw: i see... btw we found some crazy 2000mAh batteries now14:02
mntmnbut in germany14:02
flowymntmn: pray tell14:28
flowypray link thee14:28
mntmnhehehe i fear that people here will grab all stock but ok14:28
mntmnhttps://www.eremit.de/p/18650-3-2v-2-000mah-lifepo414:28
flowystock fomo is real14:29
mntmnwe put some of these in fully assembled reforms now14:29
mntmnbecause we couldn't get others14:29
mntmnbefore april or so14:29
mntmnshortages here and there14:29
flowythanks though, i ordered some. cute batts.14:40
Boostisbettergood lipo from panasonic or samsung are usually around 2500, does the chemical make up of lifepo really differ that much?14:42
sknebelyes14:43
sknebel(precise numbers you find vary all over the place by how much worse in density they are, but they are)14:44
Boostisbetterstill the safety properties of lifepo are worth it. 14:46
BoostisbetterI have no complaints with the batteries at all. I love them actualy. 14:46
mntmnalso, lifepo has more cycles14:46
mntmnand higher current capability14:46
BoostisbetterI have no complaints with the batteries at all. I love them actually. 14:46
mntmnusually14:46
Boostisbetterwhich is more important to me anyway. 14:46
