00:46 <xobs> _florent_: Probably something like `/wishbone-tool --ethernet-host 192.168.100.50 --server terminal --csr-csv ~/github/timvideos/litex-buildenv/build/ice40_hx8k_b_evn_base_vexriscv.minimal+debug/test/csr.csv`. The command from mithro connects over serial and not Ethernet.

01:46 <mithro> xobs: Could you take a look at https://github.com/litex-hub/litex-conda-packages/pull/101/files and see what you think?

01:51 <xobs> Bit patch

01:51 <xobs> *big patch

01:58 <mithro> xobs: Adding windows + mac builds for most of the conda packages

02:07 <xobs> Noticed they're missing nextpnr-ecp5, which is understandable as that one is hard to get right.

02:07 <xobs> I'm also curious how they got around the bug that yosys first does a "make clean", and the path is ~55,000 characters long (which exceeds the NT path max length of 32768)

02:09 <xobs> Also, do you bind python to a specific version? They use vcpkg, and vcpkg 2019.11 requires Python 3.7.4. I know that different Python standard libraries are incompatible. How does that affect the install?

02:44 <mithro> we are currently using a specific python version 3.7.x I think

02:44 <mithro> Conda /should/ be managing the python compatibility for us, but we will see...

07:04 <xobs> For windows, then, you'll need to make sure you install python-3.7.4. Since static Python builds still require a standard library, and they're not bundling one.

14:31 <_florent_> xobs: thanks for the wishbone tool command, it works perfectly :) and it's very useful for this board!

14:42 <xobs> _florent_: happy to help! I take it the next feature to add will be file upload. I tend not to work on boards that have that, so I'm not sure how I'd test it.

14:47 <_florent_> xobs: for the file upload, we could also use the serialboot: if wishbone-tool creates a virtual tty on the computer, we could just used flterm/lxterm on it directly and upload files as we are already doing over regular serial

14:49 <xobs> Similar to how flterm creates a virtual pty for gdbserver.

14:50 <_florent_> yes probably

15:12 <xobs> I wonder what I should do on systems that don't have a ptmx equivalent. I.e. mostly Windows.

16:45 <keesj> I think modern windows has a new terminal sub system (designed when they did the wsl) it is pretty cool

16:47 <keesj> (WSL is also pretty cool .. as good a lxc containers I would say
