minuteof the technical folks here, any good ideas about what to do with a ton of externally accessible GPIOs (via USB) on the mnt reform motherboard 3.0? https://mastodon.social/@mntmn/11335698358744611515:38
[tj]expansion header with a relatively easy to swap buffer chip in the middle15:40
hramrachlid switch :)16:09
hramrachbut also are the GPIOs accessible to the Reform or to the debug host?16:23
hramrachperhaps could be used for resetting sysctl or something if the latter16:26

Twodisbetterminute: would the script that grimmware made for the pocket to give us some power savings in a sudo suspend state work on the big Reform? 19:25
TwodisbetterMy Reform is no longer suspending, but I really like how the script that grimmware made actually kind of locks the device as well and saves some power.19:25
jfredminute: It's possible I'll want to configure my reform2 with the imx8mplus at some point if I put the rcore in the reform next. I have the a311d in there now, but the imx8mp's 8GB of RAM is quite nice despite the slower speeds20:09

grimmwareTwodisbetter: I didn’t implement the power save stuff, just lid closed detection!20:39
grimmwareThat was someone else!20:39
grimmwareminute: i2c on the motherboard would be amazing. Getting readings via uart from the sysctl is fine for certain use cases is fine but it would be good to be able to access directly from the machine itself. Also you get daisy-chaining for just 2 pins (and power and ground rails)20:42
jfredOh, hmm, if a qualcomm (was it qcs6490?) module is ever a thing, that could be a good and fast pocket reform candidate with both wifi and cellular20:47

Twodisbettergrimmware: sorry, I was looking at the wrong thread21:27
Twodisbetteramospalla: was the awesome individual that made that happen. 21:27
Twodisbetterminute: same question though, would that script from the pocket work on the Reform? 21:28
Twodisbetterminute: suspend is not working on the Reform for a while for me, so I'm thinking that downclocking would be good. 21:28
amospallaTwodisbetter: oh thank you.21:29
amospallaThe script could be adapted, but I don't own a classic Reform, only a Pocket.21:29
Twodisbetterone fo the silver linings to the downclock method that you made on the pocket is that it keeps the Pocket warm. So if you have to leave it in a car or another place where it is a little colder it protects it from getting too cold. 21:30
amospallaYeah, that is a feature :)21:32
minuteTwodisbetter: i don't know, i didn't deeply look into it yet21:32
amospallaI could try but would need help and some trial and error from somebody else Reform.21:35
amospallaThe big reform did suspend at some point but it stopped suspending, isn't it?21:35
joschamospalla: depends on the SoM. With kernel 5.12, the imx8mq did suspend successfully for some21:36
joschbut even when suspended, it would only cut power draw by about half21:37
amospallaIf making it suspend is not something to be expected anytime soon, I can try to adapt my script it to the big Reform.21:38
joschto my knowledge nobody is working on suspend/resume support in context of the mnt reform for any of the boards it supports21:41
amospallaIt does not suspend at all, only disables things like network and display, and freezes all user-space applications.21:43
joschi used to have that just for firefox -- after a 10 seconds without focus it would send SIGWAIT and when it got focus again, it would get a SIGCONT21:47
joschthough the problem with that was, that you cannot copypaste from firefox while it is suspended21:47
amospallaoh, didn't think about that21:47
joschit's not a problem for your script because the user will not use their reform while "suspended"21:48
amospallano, but with a script listening for i3/sway events and timers that could be automated.21:48
amospallafocus events.21:49
TwodisbetterI think the script would be excellent on the Reform. Also it reliables unfreezes very well on the pocket. So very reliable. 21:50
amospallaI guess that makes sense with the cpu on the stock pocket, for example.21:50
TwodisbetterSaves some juice which is better than just being on all the time, 21:50
amospallaThe script for the pocket already has some room for other models to be added, I would need some paths and constants specific for the big Reform.21:54
amospallacould please somebody on a classic reform, paste the output of this on their computer?22:02
amospallacat /proc/device-tree/model22:03
amospallagrep -H . /sys/class/hidraw/*/device/uevent22:03
joschamospalla: you can find all possible values of /proc/device-tree/model as the filenames of /usr/share/reform-tools/machines/*.conf22:03
amospallajosch: thank you!22:04
TwodisbetterMNT Reform 222:04
joschamospalla: https://mister-muffin.de/p/ey3U.txt22:04
Twodisbetteryes bingo same thing I saw, thanks josch22:04
amospallaboth you have the same computer? "MNT Reform 2"?22:04
joschamospalla: note though, that the usb hids are likely to change soon now that the mnt devices have some real registrations done22:04
joschamospalla: a311d here22:05
amospallaWhen that happens I'll adapt the script.22:05
Twodisbetteramospalla: I have the OG IMX8 on my Reform, but the output from the second command was the same22:05
Twodisbettersame with the first22:05
amospallaOk, so reading device-tree/model I guet the computer model, not the specific SoM it rides.22:06
amospallaThank you both.22:06
joschamospalla: you do get the som22:06
joschamospalla: "MNT Reform 2" was the first so it didn't have "imx8mq" in the name22:07
amospallaI remember I saw something on your scripts time ago, I'll read them.22:07
joschbut if you read "MNT Reform 2" it's implied that it's imx8mq22:07
amospallaOhh, ok.22:07
joschthese are the model names from the device tree files and they are specific for both the som and the motherboard22:08
grimmwareminute: yeah that’s what I meant, now I reread the question though I feel that I’m maybe misunderstanding where the spare GPIO are situated22:14
amospallajosch: do you know why there are two hidraw devices for the keyboard on your computer? The context of my interest on hidraw devices is that I look for the known hidraw device on the computer to send commands to set keyboard leds.22:15

Twodisbetteramospalla: If I had to guess I would say it is the keyboard and the trackball22:21
minutegrimmware: yeah but the request for a qwiic connector that goes to the SoC is actually quite doable. the original question was more about, there are these GPIOs on the usb-uart, so we could think if we need to access any interesting signals from the outside22:27
amospallaTwodisbetter: it has its own device, there are two devices with HID_NAME="MNT Reform Keyboard", and a third one with "MNT Reform Trackball".22:28
