minutei now have RCORE D-2 in my mnt reform which has working integration with LPC (battery status) and correctly detects HDMI hotplug (yay). but i just noticed there's no more pwm backlight :000:54
minuteah and i'm now on 6.8.12-mnt-reform-arm6400:54
minuteoh woops the dtb in the repo doesn't have backlight, that explains it00:55
minutewell :D https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-debian-packages/-/merge_requests/37/diffs00:56
joschminute: try out 6.9 -- the rk3588 patch stack from collabora changed again :)01:00
minutejosch: harrr... will try it on monday, or maybe tomorrow morning after validating that i can fix stuff on the sd card via my pocket01:12

vagrantcwait, it's down? it looks more updated than the last time i looked at reform.debian.net04:19
ex-parrotI think there is some issue with the CI pipelines? but I am only very vaguely across it04:20
vagrantcand there are bookworm-backports now? ...04:20

ex-parrotif you mean "the repo exists"04:28

vagrantcthe landing page for reform.debian.net was just a plain text page in my memory ... it sure got fancier since then :)04:29

joschex-parrot: the main issue is, that new versions of src:linux have been uploaded to bookworm-backports and the reform-debian-packages repo in https://salsa.debian.org/reform-team/reform-debian-packages/ is unable to handle that07:25

joschpandora, ex-parrot: something else i am pondering about for reform.d.n is to throw out bookworm and only keep bookworm+backports08:18
joschreasons: faster build times, easier presentation in the HTML (less confusing), smaller test matrix (less code to support and fix) and lastly: possibly not enough disk space (we only have 21G for everything)08:19
joschand those 21G might get real tight when we also add pocket reform (with a311d and imx8mp) and rk3588 support08:19
joschalternatively, we could implement something which stores the largest things (the disk images) elsewhere and not on reform.d.n08:20
ex-parrotsounds reasonable to me08:21
ex-parrotthe only downside I guess is the slightly slower security update schedule for backports08:21
+ mtm (~mtm@c-71-228-84-213.hsd1.fl.comcast.net)08:21
ex-parrotbut I think in practice it's not that bad right?08:21
joschyes, you'd not have kernel security updates, that is a big downside08:23
joschor maybe we still build the kernel08:23
joschand just drop the images08:23
joschkernel itself is just 200M or so08:24
ex-parrothmm yeah having the image the same somehow with a choice of kernel makes sense I guess08:24
ex-parrotwho decides that you get 21G? could we just ask for more space? :P08:25
ex-parrotit'd be nice to support both somehow08:27
ex-parrotcould just focus on the normal kernel for installer / images and give people the option to upgrade to backports themselves after install if they want it?08:27
joschex-parrot: yes, we could also do it that way round of course08:38
joschbut then we'd not be able to offer pocket reform, a311d or rk3588 :)08:38
- akira (QUIT: Ping timeout: 252 seconds) (~akira@ip2504e6e1.dynamic.kabel-deutschland.de)08:39
ex-parrotah yes of course08:40
joschex-parrot: asking for more space is an interesting option08:41
+ akira (~akira@2a01:599:a2d:174a:af47:27d3:31:b1cf)08:42
joschex-parrot: the "problem" is, that the debian.net team currently uses hetzner as a hosting provider and if you want more disk space, you also get more ram and cpu but we do not need these at all08:42
joschso things become needlessly expensive08:42
joschbut08:43
ex-parrotahhh yeah08:43
joschthe interesting thing is that when i applied for that machine a bit more than a year ago, 20G SSD was their smallest option08:43
ex-parrotok I was wondering, I'm only very very loosely across how that stuff works08:43
joschnow it seems that their smallest option comes with 40G08:44
joschso maybe it is easy to upgrade without paying more \o/08:44
ex-parrotoh yeah, it would be nice if we could just upgrade... 08:44
ex-parrotcool08:44
joschi'll ask the debian.net team08:44
joschaha! indeed my issues with my trackball happen when i pick up my reform on one corner09:35
joschso maybe it's indeed due to some unfortunate pcb flexing09:35
joschif it's that, then it might be connected with me recently making the screws fixing the trackball module to the case extra-tight09:39
joschbecause one of them fell out and was rolling around on the bottom acrylic...09:40

joschpandora: do you maybe have a tmpfs mounted in /tmp?16:59
joschpandora: by default, sbuild builds in a scratch space in /tmp and not in the current directory16:59
joschsince i only have 3.6 GB ram on my a311d, a tmpfs in /tmp makes no sense17:00
joschso i have this in my ~/.sbuildrc:17:00
josch$unshare_tmpdir_template = '/home/josch/tmp/tmp.sbuild.XXXXXXXXXX';17:00
joschanother way to change this, is to build with the environment variable $TMPDIR set to something you like17:01
joschthis variable will affect where the mktemp utility puts its temporary files and directories17:01
joschpandora: 120GB is way too much -- remember that reform.d.n only has 20G available :)17:03

pandorathere is also this weird bug in the waybar. when i click shutdown it actually reboots17:53
joschpandora: on the pocket, yes?17:54
pandoraYes17:54
joschpandora: maybe either open an issue on source.mnt.re our write to the forum about this. I think that way is the best approach to not have this forgotten.17:54
joschOf course unless Lukas happens to read this and put it on their TODO list. :)17:55
joschpandora: and yes, you cannot build the kernel because that requires more than the 4 GB you have available in /tmp17:55
joschthis is not a problem on reform.d.n because it does not mount /tmp as tmpfs :)17:55
pandorayeah i thought about just not doing this17:58
pandorai don't even know the benefit of doing this tbh17:58
joschpandora: benefit is that with your usual ram sizes, a lot of things that work with temporary files become much faster18:14
joschdebian recently switched to making /tmp a tmpfs by default18:14

joschin case you are interested, this was the change: https://salsa.debian.org/systemd-team/systemd/-/commit/663eceb5f6bc080e3cf16cfaf88733598ee6a63a20:47
josch/tmp being tmpfs was a systemd default for many years but this default was adjusted by debian20:48

violetwill i be able to take my ssd out of my full size reform and drop it into my pocket and just boot up22:52
violetlike do the same kernel/devicetree work if i stick to the same compute module22:53
joschviolet: the device tree is slightly different even with the same module22:53
violetmakes sense22:53
joschbut your ssd does not contain /boot or does it?22:53
violetit does not22:54
violeti was thinking whether i can transfer my boot image as-is or not mostly22:54
violetwhich i have on the emmc22:54
violetbut yeah sounds like i will need to tweak it a little bit22:55
joschi'd re-generate your /boot from scratch22:56
joschyou can do that by running apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-...22:56
joschi wrote up this migration guide from imx8mq to a311d: https://community.mnt.re/t/migrating-encrypted-nvme-to-different-som-imx8mq-to-a311d/178322:56
joschin your case, you stay with the same SoM, so your entries in /etc/fstab should stay the same22:57
violetso i guess, boot up with an sd card, chroot in & set up /boot mount, and then run that22:57
joschyes22:57
joschessenitally the same thing you'd do once your system became unbootable and you need to restore /boot22:58
violetyeah22:58
violetthis is basically what i did when i first got it, migrating from the really old setup the previous owner had22:58
violetdoes the imx8m+ have emmc also?22:58
joschyes22:59
violetnice. i will try to switch to that then22:59
violeti think mine comes with that22:59
violeti am on imx8mq right now23:00
joschif you are having too much free time (haha) there are a couple of things for which i am looking for users who have an imx8mq to test them :)23:02
