joschminute: remember when i said yesterday how jetbrains was surprisingly pleasant and familiar? Just now i woke up and opened my reform and my brain, staring at the terminal thought "WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY LAPTOP??" :D07:18
joschminute: slightly related: did you decide for a font? :)07:18

josch(jetbrains is fine for me, i was not trying to be serious)08:11
minutejosch: jetbrains it is10:56
joschyes, captain! :D10:59
Zabaoh yeah changing fonts after using some particular one for a long time can mess with the brain quite a bit 11:01
joschminute: if you like, you can make these changes to your dotfiles and confirm that it looks like and that the sizes should indeed remain the same: https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-tools/-/merge_requests/75/diffs?commit_id=915026c90dee9ba7461dc3ea4e3b55601306184911:13
joschdue to family visits i will be mostly afk during the next four days, so I finished up this:13:29
joschhttps://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-tools/-/merge_requests/7513:29
joschit's now ready for review and waiting for some things that only minute can do :)13:29
Zabafwiw I’m pretty sure the change of the power supply name to BAT0 is wrong - all the drivers in Linux have some driver-specific name in that field 13:43
Zabaperhaps that alias is supposed to come about in some other way13:43
grimmwareI'll be honest I informed the name by searching for instructions on how to read the battery level so I could see what it's typically called under the /sys filesystem and that's what the answer typically is. Not married to my solution at all, just want something that doesn't imply the pocket has a different battery chemistry.13:56
joschmaybe there is a way for the lpc dkms module to know what lpc it is talking to and then do the right thing?14:06
joschah here14:09
joschgrimmware: can you have a look at my commit 0ff5d229598dc46999f8e834d10808524b7fa3b5 in the reform repo?14:09
joschthat commit adds the lpc commands for f, f0, 1f, 2f and 3f which print firmware details14:10

Zabaat least judging by other drivers the right power supply name would be just “reform” or something like that unless there’s a way to get a more specific name in there 14:43
grimmwarejosch: so you're thinking it could interrogate the lpc when the module is loaded and report the appropriate driver name14:48
grimmwarelooks like we'd need to add f to pocket-reform-sysctl-fw too14:53
mhoyeadd f to pay respects15:06
grimmwarehahah15:10

joschminute: i tried out https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-a311d-uboot/-/merge_requests/3 and left some comments. Would be nice to have this ready and merged for the next reform-tools release. :)19:08
joschminute: also, what do you think about copying the build script from .gitlab-ci.yml into a build.sh script and letting .gitlab-ci.yml call that? That would make it easier to rebuild u-boot at home.19:11
minutejosch: yep, thanks. i pushed a change that disables CONFIG_MMC_TRACE. how should we go about reverting the boot order thing?19:52
joschminute: i'm wondering how much delay it adds to keep the boot order the default19:55
joschor in other words: how high is the benefit of a non-default boot order (the time saved) versus the cost (non-default config, different behaviour compared to other SoMs, carrying a patch, not being able to boot rescue image from usb)19:57
joschi also just added a bit more structure to the remaining things for you to have a look at: https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-tools/-/merge_requests/7520:02
josch <= again afk for a bit20:02
minutejosch: about the boot order, i can't say at the moment because i'm too deep in other things... lets just keep it the default at first20:03
minutei forgot how big the effect was20:03

^alexso yeah re: keyboard firmware power saving, it looks like the RP2040 will let us get wake events on GPIO pin transitions, we are very likely to start tinkering with this at some point soon and send up more merge requests21:47
minute^alex: great21:48
^alexif we can get the keyboard to fall asleep while the computer is off and wake up when the row that the hyper key is on, that would be neat21:51
^alexalso, tangentially, we used to work at companies that produced their own hardware and this is the third time we've seen the "reflashing the system controller clobber the mainboard power" but this is the first time it was software fixable21:53
^alexseen this exact type of bug, rather21:53
minute^alex: nice! it was designed to not clobber the power but yeah, it's an fw bug that i shipped there.21:56
^alexit was a very satisfying fix, thanks for the opportunity :321:58
^alexthe firmware is very nice, easy to build and easy to hack on22:10
