09:22 <lissyx> steev, we met at kernel recipes, discussed about if it was doable to help get v4l acceleration for firefox on some arm64 platforms

09:22 <steev> Ah that way

09:24 <lissyx> yes

14:07 <yangxuan> hi, chewitt

14:07 <chewitt> hi

14:08 <yangxuan> I tried your forked libreelec, and add my device, but after compile it not boot

14:08 <chewitt> remind me again, what's the device?

14:09 <chewitt> and do you have a dts file in a repo somewhere?

14:09 <chewitt> or the LE modifications

14:09 <yangxuan> a s905d box

14:09 <yangxuan> yes, I have add it

14:10 <yangxuan> wait some minutes, will upload my changes to github

14:18 <yangxuan> chewitt: here is the commit, https://github.com/yangxuan8282/LibreELEC.tv/commit/0ba1cac8b5f81d90f4a6033b3ee7ca8a29206ef3

14:20 <yangxuan> I guess it should similar to SML5442TW, it's also a s905d devices

14:20 <chewitt> the commit looks ok

14:21 <chewitt> can you attach a uart console cable to the box and see uboot output?

14:22 <chewitt> and .. what methods have you tried for booting

14:22 <chewitt> the box will need to be tricked into "recovery" mode first

14:23 <yangxuan> I boot it with flash the img into usb disk

14:24 <yangxuan> I didn't connect uart yet, need soldering, I remember it just stuck at the logo

14:26 <yangxuan> if the vendor uboot detect linux on usb, it able to boot for other os, so it should not related to bootloader, I guess it's kernel

14:29 <chewitt> is there an SD card slot?

14:29 <yangxuan> no, this box only have two usb 2.0 port

14:30 <chewitt> narmstrong: ^^ what's the older uboot like with booting USB devices?

14:31 <chewitt> ISTR that's something supported on quite recent uboot versions

14:32 <chewitt> yangxuan: which logo do you see - box vendor splash or LE splash?

14:32 <yangxuan> the vendor uboot on my box emmc support boot from usb

14:32 <yangxuan> the vendor splash

14:33 <chewitt> is there a reset button on the box?

14:33 <chewitt> pin hole button

14:33 <chewitt> most boxes need you to hold the button in with a tootpick or paperclip, then power on and release the pin after 6-7 seconds

14:34 <chewitt> or they don't check for external boot media

14:34 <chewitt> 99% of boxes have the same (ancient) 2015 era uboot

14:35 <chewitt> btw, i'm using the same kernel on all devices; GXBB thru to GXL, the only difference is the device tree(s)

14:42 <chewitt> are you 100% sure it's an S905D device?

14:43 <chewitt> because https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/linux-phicomm-n1/ this repo looks like something for an RK chip

14:45 <yangxuan> sure, I build alpine kernel package myself

14:47 <yangxuan> chewitt, there is working old build LE from other user, the boot scripts seems kind of different

14:48 <yangxuan> his uEnv.ini: bootargs=rootfs=ramfs init=/init boot=LABEL=LIBREELEC disk=LABEL=STORAGE BOOT_IMAGE=kernel.img hdmitx=cecf console=ttyS0,115200n8 console=tty0 no_console_suspend consoleblank=0 systemd.show_status=auto logo=osd1,loaded,0x3d800000,576cvbs maxcpus=4 vout=576cvbs,enable hdmimode=720p60hz

14:48 <yangxuan> if the init=/init is necessary?

14:51 <chewitt> which user and where?

14:51 <chewitt> /proc/cmdline will show all kinds of junk

14:52 <chewitt> it's not uncommon to see boot= and disk= defined 2-3 times

14:53 <yangxuan> a user on local chinese forum

14:55 <yangxuan> and his s905_autoscript use booti command, I guess need patch kernel OFFSET first to use booti for old vendor uboot?

14:56 <chewitt> see if http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/bngNqXgS24/ helps

14:57 <chewitt> I'm not that clued up on uboot stuff

14:59 <yangxuan> 150balbes armbian apply this patch, I'm not sure if this equal to your LE options: ANDROID_BOOTIMG_OPTIONS="--base 0x0 --kernel_offset 0x1080000"

15:04 <chewitt> no idea .. I not joking about not being clued up on boot stuff

15:05 <chewitt> as long as it works I don't touch it :)

15:41 <yangxuan> well, just tried 150balbes 4.x build, it work for my device, he use booti, and kernel is Image instead of kernel.img, guess it's the offset and vendor uboot cauesd my build not work

16:18 <yangxuan> chewitt, how to use s905_autoscript pxeboot(tftp + nfs)?

16:19 <yangxuan> I tried this one, but not work: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/sMpB3T3nGp/

17:27 <narmstrong> I Don’t know if the amlogic uboot looks on the usb for the autoscript

21:40 <ldevulder> hi! it seems that my u-boot on emmc is broken on my kvim board, but even if I put a sdcard it tries to boot on emmc... As I can't remove the emmc, is there a way to force boot on sdcard?

21:48 <ccaione> ldevulder: what I used to do is to ground the data / CS line of the eMMC when powering on to force fallback onto the SD

21:52 <ldevulder> ccaione, ok thx, I will try this

21:53 <ldevulder> if I can do it easily, as I dont see the pin of the emmc :)

21:53 <ccaione> BGA ?

21:54 <ldevulder> yes

21:54 <ccaione> check if you still have access to some pin point

21:57 <ldevulder> ccaione, I'm looking at the kvim docs, because as I remember there is a way to short a pin to boot, so maybe it's what you're saying

21:58 <ccaione> maybe, I'm not familiar with the kvim, sorry

21:59 <ldevulder> I have a maskrom than I can short
