Boostisbetterjosch: the pi zero 2 w is 64 bit as well but only has 512 meg RAM and so a 64 bit OS just uses up more memory by default. It doesn't make sense to run 64 bit OS there. 06:48
joschBoostisbetter: did you compare the ram usage quantitatively?06:49
joschBoostisbetter: we tried the same thing with the x32 architecture which uses 32-bit pointers on x86_64 to save memory06:50
joschin the end the savings were tiny and not worth maintaining the arch06:50
BoostisbetterNo no comparisson, just assumption. 64 bit OSes have larger ram addressing, and will just use more inheriently. 06:50
joschthe biggest saving were for haskell binaries which makes extensive use of pointers06:50
Boostisbetterreally??06:50
joschBoostisbetter: i suggest you compare the memory usage of a armhf userland versus amd64 userland and see if it makes a different for your use-case06:51
BoostisbetterMaybe I should switch to it anywayy. One other reason for not doing that, was because at the time the 64-bit RP OS was kind of immature and not as heavily supported. 06:51
joscharm64 might use a bit more memory (but most of memory usage is not pointers) but it also enables more instructions making stuff run faster06:52
BoostisbetterI think it will be worth it. Certianly worth trying it out. 06:52

Boostisbetterjosch: so while it worked, there was a noticable slowdown with the 64 bit version. I just switched back to the 32 bit version. 09:57
Boostisbetterminute: I have just passed 100 succesful wake from standby using the v3 image with the 5.12 kernel. 09:57
BoostisbetterI would say that this is standby with 100% functionality. 09:57
BoostisbetterAn excellent baseline. Now what is puzzling to me is why josch can't suspend with his NVME drives. If it wasn't his only computer at the moment, I would really like to see him return it to you to trace his board to see if something is wrong there. 09:58
BoostisbetterOf course since it looks like he is aiming to get the 2.5 board maybe this will work itself out organically. 09:58
Boostisbetterjosch: do you use zRAM with your Reform?10:07
Boostisbetteralso I just want to say this to everyone here: This community fostered by MNT is really excellent. There is a big contrast between the crowd here and over at other FOSS related things. (Purism for example) I just really appreciate all of the help and support I get here.10:09

Boostisbetterjosch: so you have starcraft running on the Reform, but have you played a game yet? Does it run well?18:52
BoostisbetterThat is a game I would love to loose some time on again. 18:52
joschBoostisbetter: yes i have played it and yes it runs well18:56
joschBoostisbetter: it only becomes difficult on maps with several hundred units on it18:56
joschsome campaign maps have multiple factions with hundreds of units each18:57
Boostisbetterok, I still need to dig out my box, but I'm going to. 19:05
Boostisbettercurrently I've been gaming on my Reform like it is a 386 running dos. 19:06

sevanhmm https://github.com/AsahiLinux/u-boot/commit/507d07bcc438d9cd91c1441e4db46ecaf998891d19:24
BoostisbetterI cut my teeth on dos. 8088 style. 19:48
BoostisbetterI have some really awesome memories from it, and dos will always have a special place in my heart as a result. 19:48
sevanjoke: and a permanent feeling of neven having sufficient base memory ;)19:50
Boostisbetterahh yes, constantly trying to get more of that 640k available. 19:50

sevanI love the sound blaster sticker on the Reform https://chaos.social/@jacqueline/11037548152751564419:51
bkeysI wish I could make the Reform switch between headphones and speakers automatically depending on whether my headphones were plugged in or not19:53
sevanseems like a software issue, I noticed I have to do that manually in the gnome tray19:54
bkeysYeah I figured it was a software issue. Does anyone know how to make it automatic?19:55
sevanI think I'm still thinking about sound blaster cards and hardware :)19:55
bkeysI know it can be done cause that is how my desktop is19:55
sevanare you running gnome too?19:56

bkeysI run KDE19:58
sigridbkeys: i know it's of no help but i did make it automatic in 9front by setting a specific configuration on wm8960 driver i wrote19:58
sigridi tried the same with linux but had no way to test it19:58
bkeysI believe it's a pulseaudio/pipewire config19:59
sigridi don't think so19:59
sigridbut i also am not versed in linux19:59
sigridwm8960 config in the device tree has different pins set up for jack detection, i thought maybe that was related20:00
bkeyshttps://askubuntu.com/questions/1061414/how-to-disable-pulseaudio-automatic-device-switch20:00
bkeysAccording to this and looking at my config, it should already be automatic20:00
bkeysIMO it not being automatic makes little sense for a laptop; on a desktop I'm not plugging in/out my headphones very often but on a laptop I do it all the time20:01

sigridjosch bkeys ^23:35
sigridso it seems like all the driver does with that information from device tree is set the registers through i2c so that the device itself knows when a switch happens23:36
sigridfor the OS to tell those apart it needs to get that through an interrupt on gpio23:37
+ Gooberpatrol66 (~Gooberpat@user/gooberpatrol66)23:37
