<ikmaak>
they use the same img, just a dtb switch in armbian-config
<rneese>
ok all you do is dl the img and like a normal img burn it to ssd and do the setup
<ikmaak>
the change pw and user stuff setup?
<rneese>
but we have 1 issue known you have to login to the desktop the first time . then after reboot it autologs in
<rneese>
yes
<rneese>
its just like a normal setup
<rneese>
so give me a bit to sync up whats there now and I will do the othe 4 ings
<ikmaak>
ok, what is different?
<rneese>
and they will but up there tonight
<rneese>
deepin desktop
<rneese>
new desktop
<ikmaak>
ah, also interesting, the hc1 and the sopines are headless...
<rneese>
okk
<ikmaak>
so that leaves the xu4 and the m4
<rneese>
ok
<rneese>
then I will get a xu4 up
<ikmaak>
cool
<ikmaak>
i will make a list of my sbc, so ppl know what i am able to test on
<rneese>
ok I am syncing up now and then I will wipe the build dir and do the xu4
<rneese>
so give it abotu 40 min
<ikmaak>
at that time i will likely be asleep, so take your time
<ikmaak>
it is past 2am here
<rneese>
ok
<rneese>
well there are some imgs going up now
<rneese>
so you can pull the m4
<rneese>
thats the nanopi m4 or wich one
<rneese>
only m4 I know is the nanopi
<ikmaak>
yes, that is the one. download started
<rneese>
ok just know this is the desktop and its apps only
<rneese>
for testing
<rneese>
I did not install a bunch of desktop apps
<rneese>
that will be in final builds
<ikmaak>
ok, i will test what i can, if you tell me the tests.
<rneese>
ok
<rneese>
you do have to login and goto the system config and tun off the windows effects
<ikmaak>
i will be asleep, but i will stay here to listen :)
<rneese>
I am working on a fix for this
<rneese>
ok
<rneese>
but this is a alpha just testing
<ikmaak>
i like testing, dont worry, i do not expect stable
<rneese>
ok
<rneese>
well once this one is done then we move to budgie
<ikmaak>
years of using pc/sbc has hardened me :)
<rneese>
and then cinnamon
<rneese>
those are the first 3 I want done
<rneese>
then lxde/mate/xfce
<rneese>
so once this is all tested and in place its going to be alot easier to have options
<rneese>

good morning
<Heisath>
Did you hear/see anything from Hijax?
<IgorPec>
heisath: nope, not recently
<Heisath>
He wanted to send me the new testing boards at the start of october. But the tracking id he gave me is invalid. And he has not responded to my messages.
<Heisath>
Hope he's fine.
<IgorPec>
he was here last week
<IgorPec>
i hope so
<IgorPec>
btw. merging 5.8.y for mvebu - what else do we need?
<Heisath>
Do not merge yet :D Aprayoga is still investigating the fan issue
<IgorPec>
i see. he is busy with h64 so this might take some timew
<IgorPec>
but apparently he knows where to look
<Heisath>
jep. If he does not get it until 20.11 we should just delay it to the next version. No reason to split mvebu.
<IgorPec>
spliting is not on the table, ofx
<Heisath>
I was also able to reproduce the issue but have no idea where to look for fixing it/tracking it down.
<Heisath>
The adjustment I did to the patch should not have produced it. Also the other PWM channel still works.
<IgorPec>
perhaps names changed?
<IgorPec>
of pwm channels
<Heisath>
I will try to find something. Maybe closely compare Lk5.4 and 5.8. Or test with 5.7
<IgorPec>
did we have 5.7. for mvebu?
<Heisath>
only on dev
<Heisath>
but I normally test only one fan, and it might always have been the wrong one xD
c0rnelius has joined #armbian
<IgorPec>
i have 2 fan setup and it was fine before
<Heisath>
yeah on 5.4 everything works.
<IgorPec>
its full time fan since start, then scripts took over once its uop
<IgorPec>
both
<IgorPec>
now, only one goes down
<Heisath>
I will load my build env and try with 5.7
c0rnelius has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds]
<IgorPec>
no suspicious changes in dt since 5.4
<IgorPec>
we better wait for him if you don't find anythin in a quick look

Hey, can I change boot to show custom image/picture instead of boot texts? Or at least just blank screen
<wooster>
i'm on tinkerboard S w/ legacy kernel, raspi SPI touchscreen display
<rneese>
put that in /etc/X11 and reboot once you have it up and running
<rneese>
ok I have not done spi
<rneese>
edp and dvi and hdmi
<rneese>
I want o know if this fixes issue son all devices
<rneese>
I think dri is better the fbdev
<rneese>
preformance wise as it adds 3d
<rneese>
iif it does wrk well I will push it for all boards
<rneese>
there is still a kwin issue but this atleast to a point fixes the desktop
<Fleck>
[15:34:00] <wooster> i would be happy with anything other than text when booting at the moment <<< similar, anything would be OK except text :D custom logo would be perfect, reading...
<rneese>
then you want the uboot logo screen
<rneese>
armbian has a screen on the builds we are doing now
<rneese>
the txt goes by so fast I dont get the issue
<rneese>
it allows you to see errors if something breaks
<Fleck>
OK, looking at "uboot splash screen instead of text" link :)
<Fleck>
rneese: thanks and I agree with you, boot info text helps you, it's just that in this case a will install my OrangePI at local school, will show tables with info on TV :)
<rneese>
then you need the uboot logo and armbians desktop builds have a lboot screen on the builds we are workign on
<rneese>
so this should fix the issue
<wooster>
basically my client has requested that their logo appear instead of normal linux text boot sequence. trying to do that with BOOT_LOGO / BUILD_DESKTOP and failing
<IgorPec>
it costs us 5000 EUR per day to maintain the project. Your client probably wont this feature not to break at next update? And have someone to fix it?
<wooster>
i donated yesterday, i will be happy to contribute more. i doubt ongoing maintainence will be required.
<IgorPec>
if you will not update system, then you are usually safe ... but once you will and it might be broken
<IgorPec>
i already wasted afternoon to fix this feature back
<rneese>
wooster your wrong it can break at any time they change uboot
<IgorPec>
because we like it
<rneese>
as the uboot logo is based on uboot code per board
<rneese>
and has to be repatched when it breaks
<IgorPec>
rneese: this particular boot splash is kernel based
<IgorPec>
but in any case it can break
<rneese>
yes
<IgorPec>
it broke once not long time ago
<wooster>
i just need it working once and then i can freeze things
<rneese>
so we are looking at 2 diff things ok
<rneese>
I was looking at the first part the uboot logo
<IgorPec>
wooster: i think in your case you only need to use master branch
<wooster>
i am on master using the config i dpaste'd
<IgorPec>
LIB="v20.08" i am not sure this was fixed
<wooster>
i see only text when booting
<IgorPec>
yes, but if you set LIB=xxx it will switch branch
<wooster>
ah
<IgorPec>
brb, i will build one stock image for tinkerboard to see if we have some issue
<wooster>
i read the config variables page of the documentation about five or six times but i'm not sure i understand the implications of the various settings
kolla has quit [Quit: %fog relay%]

<IgorPec>
which one in particular you find confusing?
<IgorPec>
you have to choose "current" 5.8.y kernel and then this will works
<wooster>
okay i can try. when i tried last, nothing came up on SPI display. i'll set KERNEL_TARGET=current and see how it goes
<IgorPec>
SPI display and logo? :)
<IgorPec>
that's even more complicated
<wooster>
i mean it was blank, no video at all
<wooster>
on current
<wooster>
is BUILD_DESKTOP neeed if i set BOOT_LOGO=yes?
<IgorPec>
no, not needed. bootlogo is build in any case
<IgorPec>
just enabled is if you build desktop
<IgorPec>
but on HDMI, modern kernel only
<IgorPec>
i am sure it doesnot work with stock kernel, for SPI i have absolutely no idea
<IgorPec>
if your SPI display can show FBDEV its probably possible ... but this requures investigation
<wooster>
everything works pretty nicely with legacy kernel except no boot splash. last i checked current didn't show anything on SPI but i am rebuilding now with current and latest master to see what happens.
<IgorPec>
then try to port bootsplash there
<IgorPec>
probably the easiest way
<wooster>
also i'm going to do a talk about this and shout out armbian at an AWS community day conference
<IgorPec>
great!!
<wooster>
i'm running AWS Greengrass on it
<IgorPec>
you know how to add custom patches to kernel?=
<wooster>
pretty nice stuff
<wooster>
i don't really but i can look into it if you wanna point me in the right direction
<IgorPec>
you know how to adjust them in case of missalignment?
<IgorPec>
you need to use exact this version, more recent will not work
<IgorPec>
will certainly not work
<IgorPec>
thiw might work with minimal changes
<IgorPec>
add thos patches to userpatch/kernel/rockchip-legacy directory and trey if kernel rebuild with KERNEL_CONFIGURE="yes" enabled
<wooster>
okay
<Werner>
Good day
<IgorPec>
hey werner, any cake left ?:)
<Werner>
No. They ate it all :(
<Werner>
There is an update for "New topic rules" available which should fix the split topic issue. However I cannot install the update ("no permission"). I assume it is bound to your account. Can you give it a try? It is now an application and no longer a plugin.
<IgorPec>
i have absolutely no clue how they are build ... since this its developing
<IgorPec>
there - anything is possible, its undetermined how and why
<HerculeP>
I didnt bother too much
<IgorPec>
those new desktops are probably for 2021
<HerculeP>
worked pretty well so far
<IgorPec>
yeah, but our build system is not there yet
<IgorPec>
making a static image is one thing
<IgorPec>
it has many bugs, believe me :)
<HerculeP>
rneese did a good job :)
<rneese>
thanks
<IgorPec>
yeah, sure, but this is neverending story, uptream will change, things will break, needs fixing ...
<rneese>
once I get all the mini bugs worked out we will release alpha 2
<IgorPec>
so we have to prepare whole system that it will not fall aparat in such cases
<rneese>
but I have to work on a few things
<IgorPec>
we have to move build engine along, otherwise we hjaven't done anything
<IgorPec>
to adding new desktops we had to tear down the whole desktop part and setup from scratc
<IgorPec>
which is why things are difficult atm
