sevanhenesy: re steam, usig a combination of box86 + the 32bit ARM binary support (armhf) in Debian, you can run Steam14:51
sevanhenesy: except when things go out of sync package wise & you update. I have up to date arm64 components installed, but their corresponding armhf counterparts are lagging behind, but that's more about packaging issues (it works when everything lines up)14:53

sevannice, I installed a community android build on a 2012 nexus 7, when idle UI was really responsive but I guess it needs a new battery since playing video would cause it to go out of sync. didn't try SSH. The bluetooth keyboard I have for it stopped responding to keypresses.15:28

dozenshow can i find my local ip address? pocket doesn't seem to have ifconfig installed..17:08
xhaip a17:08
dozensthanks!17:08
xhanp :)17:09
dozensand how do i enable the ssh server? i keep getting ssh.service does not exist, and sshd.service not found. do i need to install openssh or something?17:15
amospalladozens: apt-get install openssh-server17:16
amospallayou probably have not it installed17:16
dozenscool thank you17:16
amospallaWhat is the logic of uboot from a user standpoint in a Pocket? Specially related to changing the installed O.S. in emmc.17:17
amospallaI'm just guessing here, but is it correct that uboot needs those boot.scr, and some other files (except for the linux kernel) in the first partition (ext4 /boot) ?17:18
sevanamospalla: do you mean in terms of what is its boot sequence?17:18
amospallasevan: yes, too, but say I want to play with debian stable on my pocket, what should I copy where?17:19
amospallaProbably I should rsync as-is / volume, but what about /boot? Should I rsync it as-is, or should I leave things for uboot in there?17:20
amospallaProbably uboot just boot things as any other loader, so the provided /boot in the image is expected to be copied as-is to my local /boot partition.17:21
amospallaSaid otherwise, dd'ing the raw image to my emmc should work?17:22
sevanamospalla: I guess that would work but it's a bit of a steam-roller.17:28
sevanI believe the stable images are prepared so you just dd to an sd card and boot.17:29
amospallaThere is a reform-migrate tool, I'm reading it. I'm asking to mostly to understand how things work, so I can easily backup, and go back and forth with the current debian/sid and debian/stable any time.17:29
amospallaThank you :)17:30
sevanthe reform-flash-uboot will take care of dd'ing the u-boot image for you but basically, hardware expects to read from a specific offset and then the boot.scr is the "boot script" which contains the environment config for what do on start17:32
amospallaGood, then, at any time, /boot could be wiped, and I could recover from that with a new image or a backup.17:35
sevanthe rest of the contents of /boot are for loading linux & booting (kernel + initrd.img + device tree)17:37
amospallaI see, thank you again.17:39
dozensnice, i have set up my ssh keys and played a little minetest17:41
dozensthis keyboard is going to take a little getting used to17:42

chjosch: after copying fw files into the right place, qcacld_wlan aborts with 'VOS ASSERT in vos_preStart Line 1008'; maybe the files i copied are the wrong firmware. not sure where the fw should come from19:14
amospallach, I'm talking from memory, I tried stable time ago, and something happened with the wlan firmware, something that josch resolved, maybe you are pasting this from a stock image without updating packages?19:16
chgiven i have no wifi... yes19:17
chwell, image downloaded today19:17
chso i was hoping it contains the newest bits19:17

amospallaI don't really know if the current image has been updated since what I describe.19:21
chjosch: the d-i image doesnt seem to boot at all ; cant tell right now if it gets ignored by uboot or sth else19:25
amospallach: does /usr/lib/firmware/otp30.bin exist on your debian stable?19:29
chno19:29
amospallalocate it: find  /usr/lib/firmware -name otp30.bin19:30
chyeah its not there19:30
chi copied it over from the mnt image, but i think then its probably the wrong version19:31
amospallayou have no otp30.bin anywhere?19:31
amospallaoh well, maybe I copied it manually also, I don't remember what I did.19:31
amospallach: found it, josch sent me this: http://file.amospalla.es/ezurio-qcacld-2.0-dkms_0.0~git20230623.2cd31b6-4_all.deb, and IIRC it made it work.19:34
amospallaAnyway, you should not trust installing a kernel module from me, I'm sure the download link should be somewhere in the irc logs.19:35
chamospalla: right thats the driver .deb - this is included in the image now19:35
amospallayou have that exactly package installed?19:35
amospallaIf so, at this point, I don't now how to help. On my debian stable, I see right now that apt wants to upgrade kernel, from 6.7.12-reform2 to 6.10.6-reform. The thing is, there is no qcacld2 package in the apt packages to install, and I would say that package is needed for wlan.19:40
chok something is off. will explore a bit more19:41
chon the unstable image i think the package is called differently19:41
amospallaStill, the qcacld version is not a kernel like version, so it just builds the kernel. Do you have an ethernet cable or usb-ethernet adapter?19:41
amospallaI'll upgrade my kernel and check if qcacld package/dkms does its magic and wifi works with an upgraded kernel, something that you should be able to replicate.19:42
chezurio-qcacld-2.0-dkms 0.0~git20240408.aa96a9f+dfsg-1~bpo12+1  is installed19:43
chi think the ethernet is also unhappy, but cant check atm19:43
amospallaI have this one installed: ezurio-qcacld-2.0-dkms_0.0~git20230623.2cd31b6-4_all.deb, not the same as yours.19:43
chyeah. i can try downgrading it later19:44
chjosch: how/where do you want to keep track of the issues for stable?19:45
amospallach: ok, found it, look for "HXT" string in https://mntre.com/reform-irc-logs/2024-07-04.log.html .19:45
amospallaThat's the link for the deb I gave you, but the josch link, not mine. dpkg -i that one, should work.19:47
chamospalla: can you paste me an md5sum of your otp30.bin, qwlan30.bin, bdwlan30.bin, qcom_cfg.ini?19:47
sevanwondered about mlvwm as a light weight classic macos like WM, but it looks like it's not packaged in Debian (license?) and it uses imake to build (not packaged because ancient?).19:47
chi think we have imake19:48
chpart of xutils-dev19:48
sevanahh, thanks, I was trying 'imake'19:48
sevanError: Unable to locate package imake19:48
chi'll let you in on this trick: http://packages.debian.org/file:imake19:49
minutesevan: does xorg work on your machine?19:49
minutehaven't tried xorg in a long time...19:49
amospallach: I think you still need that specific version of qcacld installed.19:49
amospallach: https://paste.debian.net/1328068/19:51
sevanminute: I tried originally to build the entire bundle using another packaging manager and I could spawn the xorg gui (the default pattern wallpaper showed) however xorg on linux required libinput support and the packaging system didn't A) support xorg on linux B) wasn't aware of libinput. I'd sidestepped the issue19:52
sevanthis was when I first got my reform, almost 2 years ago now :)19:52
chamospalla: thanks19:53
sevanch: thanks for the pointer, very useful :)19:53
sevanminute: also, good point, wasn't even thinking about wayland.19:55
amospallach: these files exist on reform-qcacld2 package. But the files must be moved for them to work (to the paths I pasted before).19:58
sevanminute: turns out I kept that build of xorg around and just tried to run startx whilst on my gnome desktop in wayland. loaded X11, I could see the default 3 terminals, then the screen went blank & I couldn't switch terminals :D20:10
sevanso I guess the lesson there is one windowing system at a time.20:11

jfredI've just gotten a brainworm in my head about slapping the Pocket keyboard onto the back of a Steam Deck with some sort of clever sliding hinge design to turn it into a stand while it's open. My mechanical engineering knowledge is definitely not at that level though haha22:38
jfredThe bottom half of the Pocket fits nicely in between the controller grips though22:38
joschch: good spotting of the wrong sizes -- this is fixed now and the sizes should be correct after the next run tomorrow22:51
joschch: qcacld_wlan doesnt load because its firmware is still in NEW22:52
joschch: regarding the dtb, note that the linux patches on reform.d.n are at the state of commit 03874481919cf12061d3385e7fde21e810a0e762 from August 7 which misses quite a few reform fixes that lukas recently pushed22:58
joschch: "i was hoping it contains the newest bits" no, reform.d.n does not automatically use the latest commit in the reform-system-image and reform-debian-package repos -- i have to manually update them22:59
joschch: the next build on reform.d.n will build with the current reform-debian-packages main branch and also build pocket-reform-system-rk3588 and reform-next-system-rk3588 images23:24
