13:05 <steev> is there really no other way to get the amlogic libmali.so file than a 12 hour download?

13:12 <rtp> steev: did you look at https://github.com/superna9999/ ? iirc, there are some mali blob somewhere

13:14 <steev> Yeah, it’s a link to amlogic’s site (well, I looked at his Mali driver based on... yours? I can’t recall your real name, I’ve always referred to you as rtp

13:14 <steev> I haven’t looked at all his repos

13:14 <rtp> it's narmstrong repo

13:15 <steev> Ah, no you’re not Maxime :)

13:15 <steev> Also hiyo, long time no chat, hows the efikamx support coming? :P

13:16 <steev> Also hiyo, long time no chat, hows the efikamx support coming? :P

13:16 <steev> Mobile connection sorry

13:16 <narmstrong> steev: https://github.com/superna9999/amlogic-meson-mali/tree/buildroot-openlinux-20180502/lib/arm64

13:16 <rtp> steev: still on todo list /o\

13:16 <steev> Ah thank you sir

13:16 <steev> Yours mine and Matt’s :P

13:18 <rtp> :)

13:18 <narmstrong> If you want to use wayland, you should use the Hikey libmali ;-) https://developer.arm.com/-/media/Files/downloads/mali-drivers/user-space/hikey/mali-450_r7p0-01rel0_linux_1arm64.tar.gz?revision=b8764bbe-c4d6-4825-a0d9-bceca4ee4b2d

13:18 <narmstrong> amlogic ones are buggy on desktops

13:20 <zhangn1985> does linux-kernel maillist rejects emails from XXX@outlook.com?

14:42 <steev> narmstrong: interesting, I haven’t played with wayland at all actually. I may give that a shot later. What I have here mostly works, I had to pull in 2 patches from upstream for the xorg abi change

14:42 <steev> Biggest thing is that the background is “black” but launching a console I can see the wallpaper behind it

14:50 <steev> I like it, great job, seriously, only a few minor warts at this point

14:52 <steev> Mainline u-boot sees the sdcard as mmc0 and the emmc as mmc1 but the kernel sees the sdcard as mmckbl1 and emmc as mmcblk0 without using both as once

14:52 <steev> And audio, but lack of audio doesn’t bother me

16:27 <narmstrong> steev: it’s a known bug, you need to disable alpha in the kernel, the armsoc xorg driver is really bad...

16:28 <steev> speaking of which

16:28 <narmstrong> https://github.com/superna9999/linux/commit/90dc377aa5ed708a38a010e6861b468cd9373f4f

16:28 <steev> if you could pull in https://github.com/mripard/xf86-video-armsoc/commit/58a04ad9c750d6d978ad2206e18845a278e4bb28 and https://github.com/mripard/xf86-video-armsoc/commit/36709c64a70a2891f7aa027c689740125ae7dc54

16:29 <steev> cool, i'll grab that

16:30 <narmstrong> You can take audio support from my le branches like https://github.com/superna9999/linux/commits/linux-4.17-le-amlogic-gx

16:32 <steev> actually https://github.com/superna9999/linux/commit/298241f7155bfeed607b68840950c4d193cbaf55 throws errors in 4.18-rc6

16:35 <steev> https://paste.debian.net/1035000/ not sure which patch i might be missing

16:35 <steev> but i haven't really looked into it, just disabled the i2s for now

16:35 <steev> i wanted to test the other bits

16:58 <narmstrong> Take the 4.18 branch https://github.com/superna9999/linux/commits/linux-4.18-le-amlogic-gx

16:58 <steev> ah, alright :)

17:51 <steev> compiling that stuff now, will move the gpu stuff back in place after testing it

20:58 <steev> narmstrong: after letting it run for a while i end up getting https://paste.debian.net/1035040

21:43 <steev> narmstrong: only seems to occur when using the armsoc driver. will let it sit a bit longer just to be sure

22:04 <rtp> steev: fwiw, with wayland, no need to deal with the armsoc driver :)

22:33 <steev> what desktop environment should i run? gnome was... not particularly responsive

22:33 <steev> (as is tradition)
