mundane-1emantici'm trying to debug installing a new EDP cable and adapter on a LS1028A module w/ a 23-03-16 motherboard -- the display isn't lighting up or coming up, but i can login via serial.  i'm interested in clues for how to diagnose/debug going through the system logs or maybe checking the other serial port03:11
mundane-1emantici just reflashed the sdcard with a system image and theres no solid state storage or wifi card in.03:12

kensanataGot my Pocket Reform yesterday. I have a question regarding the battery OLED menu: it says some percentage for the top battery and "Off" for the second battery. What does that mean?11:31
TwodisbetterNo single received. It could be the voltage got too low in shipping, maybe. Or it is not plugged in. I'll let minute chime in though as they would know for sure. 11:39
[tj]minute: that usb recovery is really cool. The olimex module I got first booted from sd with an invalid switch position, we think it went into the manufacture mode that is hidden in the datasheet. Do you know if something excludes that from working as a recovery option?11:40
kensanataTwodisbetter: I guess was just the power state; after charging it for a while and starting it up again, the "Off" changed to "On".11:50
TwodisbetterYeah sometimes it takes the battery some time getting hit with charging voltage to "wake" it up. This is why it is dangerous to over deplete lithium batteries. Glad it is working now. Just remember it will take a couple of charge and usage cycles for the battery meter to be correct. 11:52
kensanataYeah. I also ran into the problem that it wasn't charging when I thought it was so when it dropped from 1% to zero, it shut down; when I restarted it after some charging I was faced with the initramfs prompt because of an error in the cleanup; only a second restart came up correctly. Gave me a scare! :D11:54
joschi've written about this already in the forum but let me write this here as well: i'd be happy if people could help testing linux 6.10.3 from this MR: https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-debian-packages/-/merge_requests/5011:59
joschthe easiest way to test is to add this to your /etc/apt/sources.list:12:00

joschafter an "apt update" this should let you upgrade your kernel12:00
minutekensanata: Off/On just says if the pocket reform (it's system-on-chip) is on or off ^^12:04
minutejosch: oh, i'll need to test that12:04
minutekensanata: the percentage is the total battery percentage12:04

joschi got those quite a few times today while working on MR 50 and it seems quite random15:17
joschafter disabling building the rt kernel, the build_linux job now is done in 27 minutes15:20
joschi should work on making build_custom (building handbooks) faster next i guess...15:21
joschminute: i have to run now but this job should give you some .deb to install in its artifacts in about 18 minutes: https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform-debian-packages/-/jobs/521715:34
minutevery nice @ 27 mins15:57
mundane-1emanticits a few hours before i have more debugging time i can spend on it, but i notice the ls1028a heatsink looks like its pressing against the back of the case.  maybe my own mis-assembly, and maybe the source of the missing graphics16:24
mundane-1emanticother than the display everything seems fine.  wifi card works, can get it on the network and get updates etc16:24

joschphew exciting!!17:11
joschminute: do you remember why you initially added policykit-1 to the list of package in reform-system-image? The package now got removed from unstable and I'm wondering whether to replace it with pkexec or polkitd or both.17:58
minutejosch: hmm maybe it's not necessary. i think we're using lxpolkit for sway, no?18:04
joschminute: ah i may have found the culprit: /usr/bin/reform-synaptic uses pkexec18:06
minutejosch: ah. i haven't gotten any feedback if anyone ever used that18:17
minutejosch: so i say we remove reform-synaptic, synaptic, pkexec and the function from reform-tray18:17
joschminute: are you not worried about any potential users with reform-synaptic somewhere in their sway or waybar config?18:19
joschusually, once you put something in PATH, you are stuck with it forever XD18:19
minutejosch: i am not worried18:19
joschthen it will get removed :)18:20

^alexmidfavila, "rockprobablynotbuyinganotherone" made us laugh aloud thanks21:11
Twodisbetteralso I am noticing that when the battery is full that the charging circuit continues to let the battery charge some (2 seconds or so) and then resumes charging shortly (for 2 seconds). This process keeps repeating. Is this normal behavior and is this not good for the battery?21:12

minutemundane-1emantic: the driver for the display is called malidp22:43
joschvagrantc: i now ended up sourcing /usr/share/flash-kernel/functions in my shell script and call mkimage_script() from there manually22:43
aloo_shucan you help me out with a link and save me [further] searching? I remember I once read a timeline of either the mnt-reform or mnt as a whole, documenting decisions from defining goals over sourcing parts, incorporating changes after prototype feedback, to employment and team, with their respective rationales, and I found this part, 'opensourcing' the management aspect in a manner of speaking,22:45
joschvagrantc: do you know if there is a reason why the flash-kernel package installs bootscripts like bootscr.uboot-generic into /etc instead of into /usr/share/flash-kernel?22:45
aloo_shuthe most impressive and would like to be able to link others to it 22:45
vagrantcjosch: historically they needed to be customizable in most cases, although the "generic" distro_boot functionality made that less and less a requirement22:45
vagrantcjosch: u-boot may (already?) have dropped support for boot scripts22:46
joschvagrantc: oh! do you have a link?22:47
grimmwareminute, josch: what are your feels on a wiki (albeit one that requires approval for updates to save on misinformation or moderation)? Discourse is not the best for living documentation because the information ends up fragmented across multiple threads and it would be great to succinctly communicate the state of various things in an up-to-date way.22:47
vagrantcjosch: not off the top of my head ... it's been talked about in irc and on the mailing lists now and again ... i have not been following closely ... but a recent build seemed to not support it22:48

minutegrimmware: sure! multiple people volunteered to do this in the past but didn't pull it off22:48
vagrantcjosch: i might also be misremembering :)22:49
joschvagrantc: i would certainly not shed a tear for boot.scr support :)22:49
vagrantcjosch: but there is a push to drop deprecated features with the switch to bootstd22:49
grimmwareminute: ace, well I won’t promise anything so I don’t have to join the ranks of people who didn’t pull it off and then whatever happens happens.22:51
grimmwareK, I’m off to bed. Laters.22:51
joschvagrantc: the reason why we are still using flash-kernel (generating boot.scr) instead of u-boot-menu (generating extlinux/extlinux.conf) is the ancient u-boot versions of boundary u-boot on user's machines without distro_boot support... :(22:52

josch:D23:02
aloo_shujosch: close, that type of info and insights, but for an entire product or enterprise timeline rather than a specific release. Can't be sure if my memory is playing tricks and I was going through a blog post by post at the time. could even have been external but referred from mntre or crowdsupply, e.g. feature/interview, but I don't think so23:04
aloo_shuhttps://mntre.com/news-archive.html is containing a lot of the history to piece together, but my non-infallible memory at least speaks of a more timeline organized single document with more focus on decisions and some, but less exhaustive detail on tech specs23:13
