when I hacked on chroembooks, I tended to install a tftp-enabled depthcharge to make testing of new kernels faster, but in our case I guess we won't be needing that until we start writing our own kernel driver
<tomeu>
alyssa: btw, if at some point testing on a chromebook feels inconvenient, I think there's a good chance we could send you a SBC
<tomeu>
sometimes the lack of serial console and an inconventional bootloader cant get in the way

tomeu: did you get kmscube running ? (it was not clear in the chat log !!)
<tomeu>
narmstrong: yes, but part of the screen is black and after a while it blocks in the job submit ioctl
<narmstrong>
tomeu: it's still a good start !
<tomeu>
one more step :)
<tomeu>
weston also works, with the similar rendering problems, but it hasn't blocked for me
<narmstrong>
Lima was in a similar state a few month ago, now Kodi runs fine :-)
<narmstrong>
I'll try to have it running on an Amlogic S912 board today
<tomeu>
hopefully this start of a winsys will make it easier for people to work on the rest
<narmstrong>
I need to port the meson renderonly from lima, at the end both project with conflict on the renderonly drivers !
<narmstrong>
alyssa: do you think we could upstream all the renderonly drivers (rockchip, meson ....) _before_ upstreaming Lima and panfrost since they are common ?
<narmstrong>
mmind00: yeah seems quite dependant on lima & panfrost
<tomeu>
can't we upstream the rockchip winsys with the etnaviv renderonly? :)

tomeu: I also have a rockpro64 which might be more convenient to mess with. It's currently running some vendor kernel that the blob is happy with, but I suppose I could just, you know, get a second SD card :)

alyssa: if you need access to any systems feel free to poke me

I've just been busy with another $MYSTERYPROJECT which has been eating up my coding time. Should have more for Panfrost soonish
<Lyude>
i've currently got a bifrost soc, the vim2 with the t820, and a odroid xu3 with a T6xx
<Lyude>
and soon a rockchip board
<alyssa>
..but with time constraints, that makes you a bored board boarder-hoarder?
<alyssa>
:P
<Lyude>
hehe
<Lyude>
alyssa: I don't know if you saw but I am actually making progress convincing RH to let me work on panfrost
<alyssa>
!!!
<Lyude>
you'll probably see me spending some time on the weekend getting some of these boards running fedora by default
<Lyude>
as that seems to help the conversation quite a bit
