chwhich fw do you have now?16:04
chjust so its clear what you're looking for16:05
BoostisBetterch: the aug release of this year but it shows in the status page of the lpc that it is 30 Sept16:08
BoostisBetterch: the one that is currently available is the one that took the charge starting delay from 5 seconds to 1 second16:10
BoostisBetterch: but somehow this version gets into a state where the LPC is just not responsible. You have power cycle the pocket to get it work again.16:11
chok, i cant find anything that would claim 30 Sept16:14
chprobably means i don't know enough16:14
BoostisBetterch: the version you get from here is what I have currently. https://source.mnt.re/reform/pocket-reform/-/tree/main/pocket-reform-sysctl-fw?ref_type=heads16:16
chso, sysctl not lpc16:17
BoostisBetteryeah, I think I have the terminolgy wrong. I just interface with the sysctrl via the lpc16:20
joschoh, compiling the pocket-reform-sysctl-fw also requires pico-extras on top of the sdk16:22
chyeah16:22
ch(current head shouldnt iirc)16:23
BoostisBetterpico-extras is not available16:23
chyou want the specific version from git anyway16:23
joschch: nah, still requires pico/sleep.h which is only in extras16:25
chi meant, extras from git, too16:25
joschah okay :)16:25
chah the current version?16:25
chlike, HEAD?16:26
chsorry, talking past each other i guess16:26
joschpocket-reform-sysctl-fw/inc/sysctl.h needs pico/sleep.h16:26
joschi guess, but there is no problem :)16:26
chah yes16:26
chi think the #include is useless16:27
chyeah16:28
joschand i need to package the new pico-sdk -- the old one does not have hardware_sleep16:30
chthats in extras16:30
chhold on16:31
joschit... links fine if i just remove that from CMakeLists.txt...16:31
chthe light here in the hacklight is so bad, i cant read anything16:33
chhttps://source.mnt.re/reform/pocket-reform/-/merge_requests/22 this should so16:33
chdo*16:33
joschthanks, that's what i had locally to make it build without extras now as well16:34
chi'll quickly flash this to check16:35
BoostisBetterif I had to guess the idle power improvements are probably the culprit. That is just a guess. I don't see how anything else would cause the sysctrl to become unreachable16:35
chalso nonworking ipv4, grr16:37
choverlay networking it is16:37
chquick test is ok16:39
chnot really surprising :)16:40
chjosch: do you happen to know if i can force uboot on sdcard to boot using extlinux.conf thats also on sdcard?16:47
chi've tried deleting boot.scr, but it ended up finding boot.scr on the emmc :(16:48
joschif it doesn't boot extlinux.conf on sd-card in preference to boot.scr on emmc, then that's a bug16:49
joschch: can you connect to u-boot via serial?16:49
chno, i dont have a cable/adapter with me16:50
joschyou go out with your reform *without* an UART adapter? :D16:50
chmaybe minute has one, will find out later16:50
chi packed a ton of things, but i forgot the uart adapter16:50
joschshould've reminded you when i saw your message on fedi ;)16:50
chyeah16:50
chalso i need to wire it up somehow so i dont need to unscrew everything to get to the uart16:51
joschmaybe you didn't put extlinux.conf in the right place or maybe it's not having good content?16:51
chits possible16:51
joschdid you craft the extlinux.conf yourself16:51
chi have it in /extlinux/extlinux.conf on /dev/mmcblk1p116:51
chunfortunately yes16:51
joschthe location is correct16:52
chhttps://paste.debian.net/hidden/96657950/ i imagine sth in there is wrong16:52
joschintentionally without initrd?16:52
chyes16:52
joschassuming that /Image and /dtb exist, this looks okay at a glance16:53
joschyou could try flashing debian-installer to your sd-card and see what happens?16:53
chtbh, that Image is at least 30M too small16:53
joschbecause d-i also uses extlinux.conf16:53
joschmaybe you are trying to boot 1994 linux? :)16:54
chdoes it need uboot on the sdcard in the first place?16:54
joschno16:54
joschthe imx8mplus will only read from emmc16:55
chwhats the correct d-i file that i'm looking for?16:55
joschhttps://reform.debian.net/d-i/pocket-reform-system-imx8mp-bpo.img.xz16:55
joschthose work at least with imx8mq16:55
joschi can even flash them on a usb-stick and they boot me into d-i16:56
chthat would be very convenient16:56
joschbut i don't know if imx8mplus u-boot has usb-boot enabled16:56
joschalso, at least imx8mq is *very* picky about which usb-stick it likes16:56
ch;)16:57
joschi had a 25% success rate16:57
chrk3588 ;)16:57
chright16:57
joschsorry, i was talking about imx8mplus for all my answers above16:57
chsorry, should have said so earlier16:57
joschit's hard to keep in mind who has which module in their unit XD16:57
joschugh... i really need to write down the u-boot preferences of each module some day16:58
joschah wait16:59
joschpast me was smart and wrote this commit message:16:59
josch"rk3588 will prefer u-boot from sd-card if present"16:59
chalso wondering if it will find the usbstick behind the ti usb hub16:59

chnow the q is whats the correct root=17:05
joschch: oh what was the problem?17:06
chapparently truncated kernel image17:07
chi find it funny that uboot then just ignores extlinux.conf and boots whatever comes next17:07

BoostisBetterminute: You answered the laptop question in your talk. Very good work once again! I think the progression of the MNT catalogue really shows how far you and the team have come along. Things are really only getting better and better. 19:15
BoostisBetterminute: there was a question about how much the open side of the catalog was a draw versus design and functionality. I can say that I was someone who was drawn in by the design over the open nature of it all. I don't really care about FOSS in general, although I think it is good. I really think you nailed the design. It shows a true passion to computing that is not evident in all of the modern la19:21
BoostisBetterptops that all look the same. I think your design team is absolutely fantastic. 19:21

BoostisBettercurious thing. If you download the artifact for the sysctrl update from releases, it will show a 0730 date for the firmware. 20:12
BoostisBetterHowever it you get it from this artifact: https://source.mnt.re/reform/pocket-reform/-/jobs/6894/artifacts/download?file_type=archive20:12
BoostisBetterThen after updating it will then show 0830 as it should in the status screen of the LPC. I am hopeful this will improve the LPC (Sysctrl) from crashing. 20:13
BoostisBetterdoes anyone have the USBDEV address of the keyboard RP2040? I want to update the firmware there. 20:31
chhttps://source.mnt.re/reform/pocket-reform/-/blob/main/pocket-reform-keyboard-fw/pocket-hid/flash.sh?ref_type=heads20:32
chapparently something on bus 120:32
BoostisBetteryeah, but without the address it is not possible to address it and get it to boot in bootsel mode20:36
chi think you cant anyway20:36
chyou need to press the button20:36
BoostisBetterHow is it possible to do that on the Sysctrl then that is also a 2040? 20:36
chdifferent firmware20:37
BoostisBettergotcha20:37
chsysctl fw exposes a reset API, the keyboard fw does not (currently)20:37
BoostisBetterahh so to update the keyboard we need to open the bottom plate and push the bootsel button20:38
chthe manual has the correct path documented20:39
chi dont know it offhand20:39
BoostisBetterthanks, checking20:41
BoostisBetterdon;t see any mention of it, but I am going to see if the newer sysctrl firmware fixes the issue I was having. 20:44

vagrantccurious if there is a power use comparison with rk3588 16GB vs. 32GB ram ... i would assume more ram leads to some degree of higher idle power draw ... obviously in situations where you *need* more ram it would be important23:03
vagrantce.g. swapping out to even NVMe is probably going to draw more power than actaul ram...23:04
+ aloo_shu (~aloo_shu@90.166.98.198)23:04
sevanvagrantc: would measuring the draw from power outlet be a way of finding out, having disconnected the batteries from the system so that it is running solely from PSU?23:06
sevanI ask as I have a meansuring device + a 32GB RAM module that's not installed yet.23:07
joschvagrantc: as far as i'm aware, there is not yet a measurement or benchmark of rk3588 power consumption in the reform23:17
joscheven less so a comparison of 16 GB vs. 32 GB23:18
joschsevan: you have a rk3588 in classic or pocket reform?23:18
sevanjosch: not installed in the classic 23:19
joschsevan: if it's not installed yet, maybe just measure the battery runtime with a reproducible workload before and after?23:19
sevanjosch: still on the original CPU module, got side tracked with the v4 keyboard firmware.23:19
sevanjosch: yak shaving with dead battery cells. I have new cells but also not installed yet + I think the v4 firmware lacks anything regarding battery so I'll just end up killing the new cells?23:21
joschsevan: how should the keyboard firmware kill the batteries?23:21
joschcharging happens via lpc and you have the protected battery board, no?23:21
sevanthere was handling in the original firmware for when the battery is low which is currently missing in the v4 firmware.23:22

reform26176hey there! my reform's waybar battery status diverges from the percentage value shown in my LCD display. Where should I look for the cause of this?23:27
BoostisBetterreform26176: perhaps the polling rate of the waybar is just different. How big of a difference are we talking about?23:27
joschreform26176: classic reform? everything upgraded? including firmware?23:29
reform26176reform2, maybe I need to update the LPC firmware... it is at MREF2LPC32022062123:30
reform26176the difference is not fixed, it starts at 5% and increases as the battery is drained23:30

joschif you just take the latest version, you will run into this bug: https://community.mnt.re/t/new-batteries-not-charging/269523:38
vagrantcsevan: mostly just a curiosity ... someone convinced me to get less ram on another computer once, but mostly through blind acceptance rather than actually running the numbers :)23:38
vagrantci've got the rk3588 in my mnt/reform now and ... it does eat through battery pretty fast ... does not help that i have not paid attention and let it get down to 0% a few times23:39
BoostisBetteryeah, I would imagine the power draw would double between the imx8 and the rk358823:39
