bkeysminute: I don't "need" it in the strictest sense. The biggest win I have with the cm4 is 8GB of RAM. I like running KDE and 4GB seems to get used up really quick04:12
jfred4GB RAM is my biggest issue with the a311d module too. It's pretty tight these days04:26
joschi have trouble finding workload that exhausts my ram06:18
joschit only imploded twice so far when i was compiling c++ projects without restricting parallelism06:19

Twodisbetterminute: would you be able to answer this? https://community.mnt.re/t/did-the-steel-port-cover-ever-get-trimmed/1839 10:01
TwodisbetterIf you answer here I can share it to the forum if you want. 10:01
minutejfred: bkeys: do you use swap?10:56
minuteTwodisbetter: it has not been fixed yet unfortunately, but now that i am firmly aware of it, will fix it the next time i order these10:57
Twodisbetterminute: copy, I'll let the forum know. 10:58
hramrachminute: does it have to be SDIO? If the SoC has more PCIe lanes than can be used in the Reform anyway there should be no problem with adding a PCIe WiFi module on the SoM.12:57
hramrachAlso about the WiFi+BT it seems there is alwaays a different interface for the BT - SDIO+UART, PCIe+USB, ...12:58
hramrachThat complicates things quite a bit13:00
hramrachThere is also the pattern that while tiny WiFi modules do exist decent ones are huge, and need cooling13:05

minutehramrach: pcie for wifi and usb for bt would be fine actually yeah13:37
minutelaird is offering me IF57313:37
minutehmm chipset is infineon CYW5557313:39
minuteuh oh > brcmfmac13:48
hramrachyes, randomly picked a module and landed on the same model - PCIe/SDIO for WiFi, UART for BT, 18x13mm13:50
hramrachdid not manage to find what the chipset is from the datasheet, availability of modules with sane chipsets is generally a problem13:51
hramrach18x13x2mm13:52
minutei meant, laird sales offered this to me in an email when i asked for a fitting module. i did a bit of digging and it looks like it's the infineon stuff is really (or previously?!) broadcom13:53
hramrachno idea about current day WiFi chisets 13:54
hramrachbroadcom has a business model of buying out IP so many thins are really broadcom13:55
bkeysminute: Yeah but as soon as you start swapping there goes any performance13:55
minutebkeys: really, on SSD?14:03
minutebkeys: in any case, thanks for explaining the situation. i'm not sure i can put more pressure on my colleagues here atm to make the display adapter available + shipping... we are backlogged with orders14:05
jfredminute: I do, though I think only another 4GB. Perhaps I should add more14:11
jfredjosch: I'm running Guix which will sometimes try to compile software if there's no binary available, and if I'm not careful to close other applications when doing so I can exhaust my RAM that way. (It can offload builds to another machine though, I still have that Honeycomb board I've been meaning to set up as a build server...)14:14
joschjfred: that is very understandable. As I already mentioned above, the only times when i ran out of ram was when compiling stuff.14:17
joschwe have similar problems in debian with 32 bit architectures14:17
joschcompiling "modern" browsers requires more ram than some 32 bit arches have available14:17

jfredNow I'm imagining a Reform Cube14:38
[tj]minute: has there been "enough" interest in the reform rack?14:39
minute[tj]: i think so... but some other things have priority before we can finish the design14:41
[tj]cool, I'm glad to hear there was. I'd like it to exist, but I'm not sure I'd ever have the need to buy one14:41
minutehmmm why do you want it to exist then? :D14:42
[tj]the m1 mac mini I have is an amazing device with such low idle power draw you can forget it exists. Open hardware in that space would be amazing, I just own too many computers already14:46
[tj]but I don't think I'm the only person that wants this sort of device to exist, especially because if you make it, it will be well supported in upstream and documented14:47
[tj]unlike *other vendors*14:47
joschminute: well, i'm excited about the rack reform because i have an extra mainboard for which i need a case so that i can put it into my living room :)14:53
[tj]that is a good point I hadn't thought of15:04

jfredI don't actually need a Rack Reform but the picture of the front panel design you posted a while back looks so pretty... it's tempting 😆15:37
jfredwith what I think were red LEDs?15:37
minutejfred: so far yes15:38
jfredit somehow has both a modern and retro feel, I really like it15:38
bkeysminute: Alright, thank you none the less. Is it possible that I could place an order for another cm4 adapter, I put a note on it and they just partially refund me and only send the display adapter?15:57
bkeysAnd for some reason the a311d doesn't recognize my SSD but the cm4 does15:57

joschminute: i now tried the four cards i tried with the old pcie adapter with the new one (which looks just like yours, see https://floss.social/@josch/111806240132102967 ) but the most i get is a framebuffer tty but starting sway or kmscube fails miserably... :( i'm not expecting any support, just wanted to give you some feedback for ls1028a+pcie-gpu17:36
