sevanhmm, some time ago, I managed to break steam due to package updates, there was a dependency conflict. Since then, thing have piled up so now I'm lagg behind on things because they're not being upgraded.12:44

sevanamospalla: yes, it did (see the forum for how to get setup)12:50
amospallathank you sevan, I might try that some day for fun :)12:54
amospallaIf I get a rk3588 some day I'll be able to play some 2d games I like.12:55

minutejosch: before doing the whole deb packaging, here is the next step with firmware binary + script delivered by CI. i will test them now on my pocket https://source.mnt.re/reform/pocket-reform/-/releases/2024-08-26B#update-procedure14:38
- mjw (QUIT: Ping timeout: 252 seconds) (~mjw@gnu.wildebeest.org)14:45
joschright, looks sensible14:45
joschfor packaging this all up as a .deb there are a few more things to bolt down like the firmware paths, script paths, script interfaces and so on14:45
joschfor now, doing it like this makes sense so that people have an easier time charging their pocket reforms quickly :)14:46
minuteok cool!14:47
joschin the instruction, you can make this one command less to execute by replacing the last two lines by:14:47
joschenv --chdir=scripts ./update-sysctl-firmware.sh14:48
minutei think that's more complicated to type in though if you're not super experienced14:48
joschi'd hope that everybody copypastes instead of types XD14:49
joschanyways, nothing of importance14:49
minuteyeah :D14:52
minuteok, i've tested this twice on my personal pocket reform now14:52
minutethe second time, it didn't reboot!14:52
minute(that's good)14:52
minute(i mean, it didn't hard shutdown)14:52
joschthat's great, then any further updates will be much smoother :)14:53
* Guest8127 -> mjw15:00
sevanEverything boils down to not being able to install libglapi-mesa:armhf because of conflicts with qt5 deps.15:03
sevanrambling on about my steam breakage ^^15:03
joschsevan: multiarch is really tricky when you run unstable15:04
joschyou constantly have some m-a:same version skews because something was just uploaded and didn't build on all arches yet15:05
sevanjosch: yeah, I think it was self inflicted (broke when I installed vlc & some other things)15:05
sevanjosch: or was it the developers fault?! (fooling around)15:06
joschincidentally i was about to write that i kinda enjoy not sitting on a big pile of bugs that need to be fixed in the refoorm tooling right now :)15:08
sevan:)15:11
amospallaI applied the pocket firmware, went ok.15:13
sevanACTION wonders what happens if you remove libqt5gui5t64 libqt5gui5-gles15:18
sevanACTION looks at long list of things no longer required & to be removed15:18
sevanACTION presses y to continue15:19
minuteamospalla: nice15:19
amospallaminute: not only remaining battery shows on waybar, it shows everywere now that the battery reports its remaining charge.15:20
amospallalike: "upower -d", "acpi", for example15:20
minutecool15:21
amospallaI wrote a script that this this weekend, based on the remaining percentage, now I don't need it anymore, but that that's ok I do these things for fun.15:21
sevanapt helpfully offers to uninstall most of xorg, gnome (arm64) and a bunch of other stuff if I try to install libglapi-mesa:armhf15:32
sevanI think that's enough gaming today15:33
sevantime to go and sit on a bench for a bit15:33
joschsevan: the reason you are experiencing is this: https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=mesa15:36
joschsevan: as i said, there is a multi-arch version skew right now in unstable15:37
joschit built everywhere except on arm67415:37
josch*arm6415:37
joschif you want to have multiple architectures installed via multiarch you will have a much better experience with stable or testing15:37
joschbecause all versions of all packages you are upgrading to have to be equal across all architectures15:38
sevanjosch: thanks for the link & explanation. Based on the info in that table, I've been unlucky with timing, my system has been holding back on upgrades for some time, and in that table it states arm64 builds have been broken for 11 days.15:40
sevanno worries, will revisit again soon. Still going to hit the bench as today is sunny. It keeps on alternating between summer and autumn day by day here.15:41

joschminute: i know about fwupd but i'm not familiar enough with it -- somebody who is would have to contribute a way to use fwupd for the reform firmwares15:50
joschfor starters: how would fwupd even know what firmware is installed?15:50
joschi cannot read my keyboard firmware version from userspace, right?15:51
minutegood Q16:13
minutewe could introduce that feature16:14

joschminute: another question is how to reliably differentiate the lufa devices which just register as general keyboard and trackball to the os, no?17:40
minutejosch: this can be done the same way in the usb descriptor17:40
joschmaybe you can find somebody familiar with fwupd who can give you a list of requirements17:44
joschbut i'm not that person :)17:44
joschthough it would be cool to re-use fwupd for this task instead of cooking up our own scripts again...17:44

andypiperfwiw I posted about the Pocket again today. https://andypiper.co.uk/2024/08/26/mnt-pocket-reform-a-literal-field-test/20:16
minuteandypiper: awesome!20:36
minuteandypiper: about brightness slider, i have something cooking https://git.sr.ht/~minute/reform-waypanel/tree20:36
andypipernice. I have something else cooking (hw / macropad).20:37
minuteandypiper: not sure if you're aware you can hold hyper+super+1/2 to change brightness?20:37
andypiperI am *forever* cat'ing .config/sway/config to remind myself of keybinds! Thanks! That one is listed as XF86Brightness controls in there I think (for me right now). Appreciate the tip there though.20:38
andypiperI just need to spend more time with it to get the shortcuts deeper into my head.20:38
minuteyeah, this one is a bit unintuitive also20:39
andypiperbtw the cpufetch dev merged the support for the NXP chip. I'm going to help him with the A311D as well - he thinks it already covers the RK3588. https://github.com/Dr-Noob/cpufetch/issues/26120:39
andypiperbasically I have a little-used Adafruit Macropad that has a spare qwiic port, and also a qwiic slider, and I plan to print a case for this to match the Hyper Purple (sort of) and have a little companion for my machine. More to come on this.20:41
andypipernice work on the system controller update, thank you all!20:41
minuteohh that sounds really nifty20:45

andypiperok so openrgb... 21:33
andypiper@minute do I need to do anything to the keyboard firmware for those artifacts to work, or just grab and run them and they talk to the controller already?21:37
minuteandypiper: the keeb fw doesn't need changing21:37
andypipernice!21:37
minuteandypiper: but you need to install that udev rules file and reboot (or reload udev somehow)21:37
minuteit gives non root openrgb the permission to talk to the kb21:38
minuteand the effects plugin is a .so file that can be installed in the openrgb gui under plugins21:39
andypiperyou do however need to install libhidapi-hidraw0 which is not present by default21:45
andypiper:-)21:45
andypiperand qtwayland5 will avoid a warning when running openrgb UI21:49
andypiperhmm my qt app is not in dark mode, that's something to figure out.21:50
andypiperoh this is so cool with the RGB effects. Nice work. Ship it! :-)21:52
minuteahh nice, thanks for testing!!21:53
andypiperI think the only thing I'm not loving is the light UI, will look into that. But yeah it works nicely (running iMX8MP for today)21:54
andypiperInstalled udev rules and restarted udev; installed libhidapi-hidraw0 and qtwayland5 for good measure; started openrgb; loaded the effects plugin; off to the races.21:55
andypiperfor dark mode: apt install qt5-style-plugins; QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE=gtk2 openrgb22:04
andypiperwell, it's dark but not finding adwaita so not completely matching.22:05
andypiperoh wait, theme is a setting. OK.22:11
andypiperignore everything I said about dark mode, it's in the OpenRGB settings. Now I have a thematically pleasing version.22:12
