sbatesjosch: As we discussed, I wanted to leave a comment on https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-handbook/-/issues/2 with notes on the steps that I took to move to booting from eMMC. I've made an account but it hasn't been approved yet. Do I need an account to leave a comment? Should I contact Lukas to ask to get approved?20:29
joschsbates: minute is the one who can approve your account20:36
joschsbates: failing that you can also just pastebin it and I attach it and attribute you20:36

sbatesjosch: let me do that for now: I'll make a paste and share the URL here20:38
sbatesjosch: https://paste.sr.ht/~sjb/37006a1cc4fc5829aca3f3c94a35d791f1a4f8f221:01
joschsbates: note, that the dip-switch on the SoM only governs where u-boot comes from. It does *not* govern which system u-boot then chooses toboot21:03
joschsbates: so even if u-boot from emmc is used, it will prioritize and boot the system from sd-card and not emmc21:04
sbatesjosch: thanks, I'm aware21:04
joschokay, cool :)21:04
sbatesjosch: so maybe the notes should be changed to "U-Boot from..." rather than "boot from..." on the lines regarding the switch21:05
sbatesthat might be clearer21:05
joschokay, will do21:05
sbatesunfortunately I don't think I can edit this paste21:06
sbatesI'd need to make a new one21:06
sbatesalso I was thinking a better title would be Notes on switching from SD Card and NVME to eMMC and NVME21:06
sbatesas that's the starting point, rather than pure SD Card21:07
joschsbates: tell me if you'd like any other edits: https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-handbook/-/issues/2#note_556521:08
sbatesjosch: and line 10 should be Steps to switch to eMMC21:08
joschfixed21:09
sbatesjosch: thanks, looks good21:10
sbatesjosch: just noticed one minor thing, the "auto" is missing on the last line of the fstab afterwards21:15
joschoh it's missing everywhere21:15
sbatesjosch: I see it for other entries, just missing for /dev/mmcblk0p1 in the 2nd fstab at the end21:16
joschah sorry, yes21:20
joschfixed21:20
sbatesawesome, thanks, sorry about that21:20
joschno worries :)21:25

sbatesI spent a very pleasant afternoon programming on my Reform. It's taken me a bit of time to get it set up and to get used to the keyboard, but it's feeling more and more comfortable to work on.22:50
sbatesIt's a great little computer22:58

minutesbates: coincidentally i also spent the evening programming on my reform 23:19
sbates:)23:20
sbatesminute: One of the things that I need to do to set up the Reform for myself is to increase the text size in the console and in Wayland. The default font size is too small for me to use comfortably. I was wondering if that might be something that might be useful to add to the handbook? It doesn't make sense to document everything about using Linux, as there are lots of other sources of information for Linux related stuff. But for something like text size, 23:24
sbatesit might be nice to include instructions.23:24
joschsbates: you mean the font size in waybar and/or the one set by "gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface font-name"?23:29
sbatesjosch: for me, the waybar is fine, but for applications, I need to use "gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface text-scaling-factor" (I also adjust font-name, but text-scaling-factor is the big one for me)23:34
sbatesAnd for the Linux console I set FONTFACE and FONTSIZE in /etc/default/console-setup23:35
+ vagrantc (~vagrant@2600:3c01:e000:21:7:77:0:50)23:36
sbatesOn a fresh system image, editing /etc/default/console-setup is the first thing I need to do23:37
minutesbates: good points23:37
joschfunny :)23:39
joschthe original sway config reads:23:39
joschexec gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface font-name 'Inter 14'23:39
joschand one of the first things i did on mine was to change that to:23:39
joschexec gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface font-name 'Inter 11'23:39
- mjw (QUIT: Ping timeout: 255 seconds) (~mjw@gnu.wildebeest.org)23:43
sbatesjosch: text-scaling-factor affects things that font-name don't, such as content in Firefox. I use text-scaling-factor to increase the UI in general, and then set font-name to a smaller size, to account for the increase due to text-scaling-factor23:50
sbatess/dont/doesn't/23:51
sbateswe all have different needs with regards to comfortable text size, but I was thinking that it might be something that we could include a note on, as for some people (like me) it's something that needs to be adjusted right away to make the computer usable23:53
joschsbates: oh i was totally trying to make your point! my own adjustments were the other way round (smaller font not larger) but the fact that i did those shows that it makes sense to document them23:57
