minuteso i think the diy shipping date on their page is not accurate, but the rest should be00:01
ec0oh that's great info, thanks for taking the time to answer, very much appreciate it00:05
minuteoh, another toy we can test https://www.cnx-software.com/2023/01/05/banana-pi-bpi-cm4-amlogic-a311d-system-on-module/00:28
c-keen[m]Is the connector layout of these som standardized somehow?00:59

ec0there's a few different standards as I understand it, each vendor does this - https://xkcd.com/927/01:18
ec0like how the CM4 needed an adaptor for the reform SO-DIMM style connector - https://www.mntmn.com/media/reform_md/2022-03-03-reform-march-update.html01:21
ec0I bet more SoM vendors will start using the CM4 connector 01:21

sknebelsome do, yeah. although the mapping is always an issue, as soon as feature sets differ01:36
sknebelso there are a lot of different ones, even the same vendor might have multiple variants01:36

ec0I wonder if any of the connector standards will get to a stage where a common minimum feature set is agreed, like pcie + usb + 5v power + DSI or something along those lines03:31
ec0with connectors I'm always reminded of the pin 20 problems with mini pcie and how thinkpads were using that pin03:33
ec0pin 20 being "vendor reserved", could see something similar like that for SoM standards03:34

minutejosch: oh!17:45
minutejosch: not yet cleaned at all, but https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-system-image/-/commit/8887c2af87d881a284d95d924f3bcf557a13071118:38
minutejosch: also some of the 8mp patches are redundant, will sift through them18:38
minutepocket-reform-imx8mq is a bit of an exotic thing though... i guess there won't be many of that18:43
Boostisbetterminute, could you maybe give me a rough quote on what the highest specced and most accessory pocket order would cost, and what all that would include? 19:01
Boostisbettermore about the spec and less about the money19:02
BoostisbetterIf you feel comfortable throwing a money esitmate out there great, but I'm really interested in what the highest specced variant is going to be for the Pocket. 19:02
minutethis i don't know yet... i mean i guess 8mp, 8gb ram, 128gb emmc, 2tb ssd, wifi/bt, cell modem19:08
minutebut later other processors like rk3588, and i will test out amlogic a311d19:09
minutebut these won't be in the campaign. the campaign has to focus on imx8mp19:10
Boostisbettersounds good to me. That is what I'm plan on. Upgrading to a possible future CPU is always an option. 19:41
joschminute: oh wow those are a lot of patches! I'll sort through them. Since you seem to also be using 6.1, there should be no problem applying them. Some patches are named .txt. I'll rename them to .patch, okay?19:58
minutejosch: there's hdmi and hdmi-new, so you can disregard hdmi... and maybe also mmc is not necessary at first20:00
joschminute: did you try running a kernel with those patches on imx8mq?20:02
minutejosch: not yet! 20:13
minutejosch: that's the interesting pat20:13

minutei'm currently trying to make imx8mp-mnt-pocket-reform.dts20:13
joschminute: now that salsa CI uses docker, would it be easy to allow others to run the pipeline for their merge requests?21:14
joschs/salsa/gitlab/21:14
minutejosch: we can try!21:15
minutetrying to remember where to toggle that21:16
joschminute: i opened https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-system-image/-/merge_requests/68 and we could test whether before merging, the pipeline succeeds :)21:17
joschminute: what is reform2-and-pocket-imx8mp-imx8mq/patches-pocket/panel-jdi-lt070me05000.c ?21:17
minutejosch: this is something i need to clean up and turn into a patch21:18
minutejosch: ah i think i need to add your repo to the builder21:18
joschminute: a pipeline seems to have been created but is "stuck": https://source.mnt.re/josch/reform-system-image/-/pipelines/82221:18
minutenot anymore!21:19

joschit works! nice :D21:20

joschyup, now the pipeline is running for my updated merge request: https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-system-image/-/merge_requests/6821:23
minutenice!21:26
joschthis is awesome21:26
joschnow there is way less chance that anything that doesn't work gets merged by accident :)21:26

minuteok i'm too tired to continue working... have transplanted imx8mplus into pocket reform and will continue with bringup of that combination on monday22:11
Boostisbetterminute, and sending me a pocket reform. 😉22:30
eery[m]Anyone with more analogue encoding knowledge than me have a guess why my monitor at 4k/60Hz is showing weird color corruption where blacks are green and most other colors are pink, but is totally fine at 30Hz?22:35

+ mjw (~wielaard@gnu.wildebeest.org)23:38
mjwWhat is the best starting point for upgrading to a new system-image?23:40
eery[m]I guess I'm wondering where I'd look for the source of the problem, could it be a problem with the HDMI negotiation? Or is the panel just hopelessly incompatible23:41
mjwI am still using the original one that came with the reform. And my ssd just failed, so this seems a good time to start fresh (already have a new ssd)23:42
