violetminute: i have some thoughts/questions about the CM4 compat module and whether it can actually be made to also work with the Pine SOQUARTZ, is the discourse page a good place for that kinda thing03:10

chartreuseRelated to the headphone script stuff there, I forgot to post here that I had that same issue and fixed it by changing to pactl and having to modify the script a bit. Forgot to post the fix on the forums04:34
chartreuseThis is my new .local/bin/toggle-speakers script https://gist.github.com/ChartreuseK/6102cec2b92b6d2ae3e876bff78d038804:36
chartreuseBasically changed the ACTIVE line to get the active port from pactl instead of pacmd04:36
chartreuseIt's kinda a lazy AWK command I used, but works fine on that output so far at least04:37
chartreusevkoskiv, seems like you got it working, but this is how I did it too04:37
chartreuseviolet, you can use "ntpdate" to do a clean ntp refresh when the clock is really far off, or you're on a system with no RTC04:38
joschi just realized that in contrast to pacmd, pactl can be told to output json -- then no grep or awk is needed anymore05:22
chartreuseStill would need some way to parse the JSON in a bash script, and AWK would still be the easiest way to do that05:40
joschjq05:41
joschor i just convert that shell script to python to make it even more legible05:41
chartreusejq isn't part of a standard *nix install, but is an option there yeah. I just like quickly doing an awk like that because it's always going to be on a *nix system05:42
joschwhat i dislike about the awk/grep solution is, that it can break at any point. it's just a heuristic05:43
joschbest fix would of course be if there was a --format for pactl that was easily parsable in shell only :)05:46
joschbut --format=text just seems unstructured output intended for human consumption05:46
violetchartreuse: you can't run ntpdate if you don't have network :)05:49
violetand you can't connect to wifi if your time is too incorrect05:50
violethence my script i'd have to run before i could connect to wifi and get ntp to work05:50

pandora[m]Is there a reform 2? Did I. It’s something? :D12:47
joschc-keen[m]: this reminds me that i wanted to write a script that automates updating u-boot to the latest version -- would you like to be my guinea pig? :)12:59

joschc-keen[m]: the reform-check utility (if run as root) should already give you a few commands to run manually13:02
joschbut i wanted to add a tool with some extra checks, for example to make sure that no partitions are overwritten13:02
c-keen[m]ok, will try that tonight13:02

minutepandora[m]: reform 2 is the one that everyone has. reform 1 was more like a prototype13:25
minutejosch: i will also gladly test an u-boot updater ^^13:26
joschminute: cool! have you already thought about a good interface? i thought to just add a script called reform-flash-uboot which would then check the currently installed uboot, download the new version if necessary and copies it over, making sure to not overwrite partitions on the sd-card for example13:29
joschthe first argument to the script could be either sd or emmc or a direct /dev/... path similar to the interface of reform-boot-config13:31
rahis this the datasheet for the supplied batteries? https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0481/9678/0183/files/HTCFR18650-1800-3.2V_Specification.pdf13:34

vkoskivJC[m]: I want to do some 3D models to try and make a keyboard brace bracket for the Reform20:04
joschvkoskiv: you mean this one? https://community.mnt.re/t/reform-mod-idea-internal-keyboard-brace/137320:19
vkoskivjosch: I saw that one, my idea would grab onto the slot where the trackpad goes and support from the main box itself20:22
vkoskivThen I wouldn't need to worry about stressing the acrylic back.20:22
vkoskivWith the downside that the brace would possibly only work with the trackball, which I mostly use anyway20:23
vkoskivI observed a latency with the trackpad that bothered me, but I haven't tracked down what causes it yet.20:23
joschvkoskiv: i do not see where it would grab onto the trackpad but i would use openscad to design this20:26

joschah i misread -- you said trackpad in your first message not trackball :)20:30
vkoskivMy idea isn't fully fleshed out yet of course. I'll give openscad a try to see if I could come up with a rough model to work with.20:37
vkoskivI've been meaning to learn more CAD for ages now. I just find it hard to start, especially if I don't have a good excuse to do so :D20:38
vkoskivI have a 3D printer, so I can try out prototypes on the real thing20:38
joschi found openscad really easy to get into. This is nearly all one needs: https://openscad.org/cheatsheet/20:39
joschthe rest is just doing unions and intersections of basic geometrical objects20:39
