i worked out how to handle the requirement Buildroot has to identify yourself in IRC every time
<peterm6881>
I just added /msg NickServ IDENTIFY password to "Connect Commands"
<Xogium>
hmm, fancy
<peterm6881>
lol
peterm6881 has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
peterm6881 has joined #Speedsaver
<peterm6881>
what was the patch we submitted for the Lichee Zero?
<peterm6881>
I forget
<Xogium>
the u-boot version bump
<peterm6881>
ahh yeah
<peterm6881>
could you share me your current image?
<Xogium>
yes, just a sec
<peterm6881>
I asked the question in the Buildroot channel. Hopefully i worded it sanely
<Xogium>
I'll just build it again for you, I had forgotten to add the map in there lol
<peterm6881>
:)
<peterm6881>
does it have usb otg?
<peterm6881>
just wondering if I need to rig up serial gps too
<Xogium>
hmm you might need to set up serial gps. I've not checked the otg, must admit
<peterm6881>
as you wih
<peterm6881>
wish
<Xogium>
sent you the link
<peterm6881>
thanks Xogium
<Xogium>
no problem
<Xogium>
does speedsaver at least has a visual indicator that you're going over the speed limit, since audio is broken right now ?
<peterm6881>
hm....Google isnt letting me into my email, can you dm me the link here?
<Xogium>
huh ?
<Xogium>
I sent the link over facebook, why would you need email ?
<peterm6881>
FB is on my phone, to get it onto the NEC I email it to myself
<Xogium>
ah
<Xogium>
can do that then, sec
<peterm6881>
its ok, im in now
<peterm6881>
sry
<peterm6881>
Firefox update , just needed to restart Firefox
<Xogium>
I hate how firefox is forcing the update on you
<peterm6881>
ksorry im getting a kernel panic with that image
<peterm6881>
[ 1.331238] Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(179,3)
<peterm6881>
few more messages, then it reboots
<peterm6881>
burning again using a different reader
<Xogium>
sounds like a failing card or reader again
<peterm6881>
yeah something wasnt right, it worked that time, sorry for the false alarm
<Xogium>
sigh. Unbranded cards do suck
<peterm6881>
actually that one is Kingston. But yeah, sooner we get away from cards the better
<Xogium>
hah, kingston. Yeah I'm not surprised
<Xogium>
if they swap things in their eMMC, presumably they do the same with their micro sd. And not only that, the firmware running on those is crap
<peterm6881>
are you watching the Eurovision Song Contest tonight?
<Xogium>
nah, we don't have tv for one and also I wasn't even aware there was such a thing, let alone that it was tonight lol

UART1?
<peterm6881>
bridge is currently connected to uart0
<Xogium>
yeah hmm
<Xogium>
uart1 should be gps
<Xogium>
is the gps that square thing on my board ?
<peterm6881>
yes, thats the patch antenna
<peterm6881>
the chip is underneath
<Xogium>
cool
<Xogium>
I took a picture of it to show to John, he was impressed
<Xogium>
said you had very good prototyping skills, all hand soldered on a perfboard
<peterm6881>
:)
<Xogium>
he asked me too, what the hell is that dangling wire
<peterm6881>
I was too hard on John yesterday. I feel bad about that. He made a very significant contribution
<Xogium>
reset line lol
<peterm6881>
:)
<peterm6881>
crude but effective
<Xogium>
definitely
<peterm6881>
do you have an app on your phone that tells you exactly where you are?
<Xogium>
when I touched it for the first time I was like, oh great that came off... It really felt like that, had a bit of naked wiring showing through and everything
<Xogium>
how do you mean ?
<peterm6881>
hehe, im glad it works for you, I wasnt sure about that
<Speedsaver`>
Title: [PATCH 9/9] ARM: dts: sun8i: enable audio on Lichee Pi Zero Dock (at lists.infradead.org)
<peterm6881>
i seem to remember we talked about this, you reckoned that patch got missed in the kernel
<Xogium>
yes, except that I added it myself
<peterm6881>
ah ok
<peterm6881>
i guess the only thing i can do is wait for an answer from BR irc
<peterm6881>
yeah i do remember you implement something based on that patch
<Xogium>
I don't think they could help us in buildroot given that mainline linux as used in the defconfig of the lichee is so old that there is no audio up there anyway
<peterm6881>
any suggestions what I might try to move things along? Who do I need to talk to
<peterm6881>
or is it fatal
<Xogium>
I don't know
<peterm6881>
Looks like Martin Ayotte may have found the fix, to the problem identified by someone else as "It looks like in the DTBs I was reviewing that the analog codec seems to want to use similar pins as the ethernet adapter"
