joschflowy: once the motherboard upgrade arrives, i can use the old motherboard and som as a HTPC -- that is of course given that KODI can work with it, which i yet have to try out00:02
flowyoh right, i forgot about the motherboard upgrade. hmmm then i'm very tempted to design a custom case, for something headless00:08

joschlinux 6.1.4 is now finally in Debian unstable. I rebased our imx8mq patches onto it and i'm now building.10:13
vkoskiv\o/10:14
joschminute: once i've tested the result, should i just push it to reform-debian-packages so that it ends up in the mirror or do you want to temporarily pause the updating cron job again?10:14
joschsince gstreamer 1.22 still didn't release, we will not see it in the next Debian stable because the freeze period already started10:15
joschminute: do we want to build gstreamer 1.22 as part of reform-debian-packages?10:16
minutejosch: you can push it, and gstreamer sounds good to have, too!10:17

joschminute: the shop.mntre.com checkout process does not have a textbox for additional comments as far as i can see? How would I order the homing keycaps with custom engraving?11:05

c-keen[m]does freecad currently work on the reform?11:43
+ GNUmoon (~GNUmoon@gateway/tor-sasl/gnumoon)11:55
minutec-keen[m]: should, maybe you need to do `export QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb` to avoid a crash12:06
c-keen[m]thanks!12:06
minutei recently designed a piece of furniture using reform and freecad12:07
c-keen[m]I need to design a terrace entry12:08
minutenice12:09
joschQT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb was also needed for openscad -- i wonder whether it would be a good idea to publish this somewhere more public? I guess unconditionally setting QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb in ~/.profile is a bad idea for some reason?12:09
joschoh no wait12:10
joschi am re-reading the irc log now... 12:11
joschc-keen[m]: do you have the qtwayland5 package installed?12:11
minutejosch: yeah, it is not perfect because that will disable wayland for qt apps12:11
minutemy guess is that openscad and freecad both use a library that has problems with wayland12:12
c-keen[m]I have to check later12:39
minutei tested it on my intel desktop and i can't use freecad without QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb12:50
minutethis is a bug that just doesn't get fixed in debian i guess12:50

cinap_lenreklinux needs python now to compile?18:17
sigridjosch: would it be possible to not depend on /dev/mmc* paths in system image? ie use UUID=... in fstab by default?18:17
cinap_lenreksigrid: why?18:19
cinap_lenrekisnt this the boot parameter?18:19
sigridbecause if you write the same image to a usb flash drive it drops into initramfs rescue mode18:19
cinap_lenreklike you tell the kenrel what your root fs is?18:19
sigridit expects root fs to be at a specific path18:19
cinap_lenrekah!18:19
joschsigrid: yes, absolutely18:21
sigridI also don't understand where does rootfs parameter gets passed18:22
sigridI updated fstab and ran update-initramfs via chroot, but it still tries to boot off mmcblahblah18:22
cinap_lenreksigrid: somewhere from the boot.scr18:23
sigridthat's the thing, it's not there18:23
cinap_lenrekD:18:24
cinap_lenrekmaybe they hacked the kernel!18:24
joschsigrid: please ping me in a few hours -- baby time right now :)18:24
joschsigrid: if you do not have a boot.scr then the contents of your initrd do not matter because u-boot will not consider a partition without a boot.scr18:58
sigridI have it18:58

joschyes18:59
joschthe rootfs parameter com18:59
joschthe rootfs is decided by the initrmfs which in turn gets its information from /etc/fstab18:59
joschso running "update-initramfs -u" afterwards is correct and should've work18:59
josch*ed19:00
sigridit did not :(19:00
joschyou can look into reform-boot-config for the necessary steps19:00
sigridie it ended successfully, but that's about it19:00
joschsigrid: and you ran it with -u?19:00
sigridyes19:00
joschhrm...19:00
sigridwhat's reform-boot-config?19:00
joschit's a small script to make it easier to let the initramfs choose whether to 19:00
sigridah, it's in /sbin19:01
joschboot from sd, nvme, usb or emmc19:01
sigridthis let's-not-show-all-executables thing debian comes with, I keep forgetting19:01
joschyou mean for tab-completion?19:01
sigridyeah19:02
joschthat default is annoying, yes19:02
sigridanyway, I booted it with "setenv bootargs root=/dev/sda2" for now19:02
joschpersonally i have /sbin in my PATH and done19:02
sigridwhat I *actually* want is to rebuild a device tree19:02
sigridis there any way to do it fast in debian?19:02
joschwhat do you mean by "device tree"? a linux dtb?19:02
sigridyep19:03
sigridI have a small patch for it, want to try it out19:03
joschhrm... i don't know how to do it reliably without a full rebuild i'm afraid :/19:03
sigridthat's fine, I can just do a make dtbs I guess19:04
sigridis there a known deb-src to use?19:04
sigridor should I clone reform-debian-packages?19:04
joschbuilding from reform-debian-packages would be one way, yes19:04
joschyou could edit the dtb there and then just run the script to build a kernel but that will take a long time19:05
joschwe currently do not publish the Debian source to the binary package in the reform re19:05
josch*repo19:05
joschso the source is the git repo19:05
sigrid... build.sh complains about deb-src too19:10
joschsigrid: do you have a log?19:11

sigridhmmm. patching failed19:15
sigridguess that was a bad idea19:15
joschah i know how you got the deb-src error19:15
joschusually, the top-level build.sh script is the entry point and that one adds a deb-src line19:15
joschso you add this line to chdist/base/etc/apt/sources.list:19:16

sigridthis is too much of a hassle19:22
sigridsorry19:22
joschsure, nothing to be sorry about :)19:22
joschsigrid: but i still would like to find out about your boot problem -- could you paste your /etc/fstab?19:23
joschfor example i have my swap mointed with UUID= which works fine:19:24
