01:58 <steev> is pcie known to not work properly on the 5.4 kernel? 5.4.20 nanopc t4, the nvme drive doesn't always show up but i don't really know what causes it to... not

02:25 <Kamilion> steev: i have flakey nvme on desktops too.

02:26 <Kamilion> Any idea how to enable SPI on the Orangepi Lite2 (H6) ? I've turned the overlays on in armbian-config, but I don't see /dev/spi*

02:28 <Kamilion> 20.02.1 / 5.4.20 / ubuntu bionic image.

02:28 <Kamilion> trying to get 'flashrom' to see SPI

08:48 <keesj> Hi

08:53 <keesj> I have some some stupid stuff but also had some nice findings. First of all I continued paying with my olimex a10 board : I was able to just download prebuilt maline kernel from kernelci and boot my device, userland was a "normal" debian debootstrap

08:53 <keesj> is this much different from armbian?

08:55 <keesj> secondly (because that kernel did not have enough features enabled) I started modifyig the kernel config but it turns out it is a lot of work(I would, if possible like lxc and docker support) but also for some other trivial stuff things required and options (from adding IPV6 because a python package I used used that opion to adding usb serial drivers).

08:57 <keesj> Now I am back here.. I know maline kernel boots and wonder .... how armbian managed the kernel configs/builds . would it be hard to add the olimex-a10 board if I can point to at .. 5.6 kernel version?

08:58 <Werner> Everything is open soure, just check github.com/armbian and you will get an idea how everything is done ;)

08:59 <keesj> I did already play with the system (and also ended up in the menuconfig of armbian) the think is that the board is makred deprecated and to me it sounds like I will have to spend time .. undeprecating

08:59 <keesj> that might be harder , compared to adding a new targer I am guessing

09:00 <Werner> Not necessarily. Deprecated would mean that somebody else did some stuff for the board in the past

09:04 <keesj> this is the board https://www.armbian.com/olimex-lime-a10/ it is marked "EOS"

09:05 <Werner> You might be able to still build it when running with EXPERT="yes". If you run into issues you are on your own though

09:06 <keesj> Sometimes I do feel alone

10:02 <IgorPec> keesj: olimex with a10 must just work

13:23 <phipli_lurk> keesj : probably isn't massively different to the micro : https://www.armbian.com/olimex-micro/

15:38 <lanefu> Hey IgorPec how are ya

16:13 <steev> question about the kernel config... - if i install linux-source-5.4.20-rockchip64 there's a .config in there (also the .git directory has stuck around) but it also throws in a config.xz file - but the .config and config.xz differ - which one is actually used?

16:32 <anenigma> steev: should have a /proc/config.gz for the running kernel, which might help

16:32 <steev> it would, if i was running it :)

16:32 <steev> i grabbed it out of /boot - and it looks like it matches the config file that is installed as the .xz

16:37 <anenigma> aah :)
