sevanjosch: re pcie cards, are they detected a different devices between that system & another where they are working?00:12
sevanon x86 with ati, I was missing firmware for my cheapo ancient ati card. Once I put that into place, the tux's appeared on boot & resolution switch up.00:14

sevanI know of one monitor still manufactured by Eizo, and available only in Japan :)01:33
sknebelsome seem to exist, at least various chinese digital signage companies say they sell them, but they seem to be a niche item. e.g. I'm not sure how good of an indication that truly is, but I've never found one I could just order without "call us", like I could many other displays01:34
sknebelonly the 27"/28" that Eizo and Samsung (afaik) sell01:34
+ S0rin (~S0rin@user/s0rin)01:34
sknebeland small ones, 5" 720x720px01:34
sknebel(the latter adafruit etc have, you can get on aliexpress, ... so those are available)01:35
sknebelbut nothing inbetween01:35
sevantoo small, 27" Reform? ten up the 17" MBP01:35
sevanwait, the 27" monitor, not the panels, right?01:36
sknebelyou can find the panels used in that occasionally01:38
sknebelas "dont want to pay full price? buy panel + electronics and make your own case" project even sometimes :D01:38
sevannice :)01:38
sknebelI wish I understood what drives "this is what companies claim exists" and "this is what someone just sells on aliexpress" for displays. sooo many fun sizes/shapes you cant easily get01:40
sevanit would be nice to have matte square panels readily available.01:41
sevanJust realised the panel and backlight on my 12" powerbook are going to give up at some point.01:42

hramrachwho would use a square display, for what?10:50
hramrachwhen dealing with movies widescreen is useful, when dealing with simulators or movie editing extrawide is useful, when dealing with text or code portrait is usefu, when folding on top of a keyboard widescreen is usefull. Square when?10:52
hramrachI understand that in some notebooks (almost) square is a compromise between folding on top of a keyboard and portrait, and those 4:3 or 4:5 laptop screens while rare can still be found10:53

hramrachThat's why these displays are not popular. The market is small, and the set-up costs for any type of display are non-trivial16:16
vkoskivI love the idea of Gentoo, but I just looked up how to upgrade a system I set up in 2021, and the *official* guide says it might be easier to just re-install the whole thing :D16:25
vkoskivI think it is the only distribution that can reasonably be installed on 1993 hardware though, which is pretty dang neat IMO16:26
hramrachsevan: Apparently thre is still stock of the displays used for Thinkpad x61 upgrades which are something like 4:3 12": https://www.panelook.com/HV121P01-101_HYDIS_12.1_LCM_overview_3604.html Not sure how much the stock information of panelook can be trusted but it's standard notebook part, it's likely to be available, or an equivalent16:32
sevanhramrach: nice. I remember the upgrades (x62?), they also did one for the x220.16:34
vkoskiv2-3 years ago I purchased a replacement LCD for a 2005 Fujitsu LifeBook S2110. I even emailed the supplier in china to verify some very specific details about the panel, and they responded and helped ensure I got the right part!16:34
vkoskiv(That particular laptop has sentimental value to me, and I wanted to replace the broken LCD because of that)16:34
sevanI had the opposite experience with a uk based company who advertised x61 panels (I needed one for an x61s), blew some fuses on the motherboard. Had to find the documents for the panels to prove it was incompatible since they denied an issue.16:37
hramrachit very much depends on the reseller what kind of service they provide16:38
hramrachit helps if they are also a service center using the panels themselves but some pure resellers are also capable, and some service centers want to push you into also paying for the replacement16:40
sevanit's also an absolute pain replacing the panels on some of those things. I think for x62 upgrade panel that was linked here, it's an extremely tight fit.16:40
sevanthese were the horrors of the past I was thinking of when I was putting my Reform together.16:41
hramrachit's not the original panel and does not fit without modifications16:41
sevancorrect, but there's on modification to the top case where the panel is installed, right?16:42
