<Armbian-Discord> <k​ikoroo> ok noted thanks
<Armbian-Discord> <s​tvhay> Hey the rock 5B image is missing intel WiFi firmware. Just wanted to leave a note. Kernel is there but no firmware

<Armbian-Discord> <T​enkawa> Why would it have it>
<Armbian-Discord> <T​enkawa> And..
<Armbian-Discord> <T​enkawa> its still non-free
<Armbian-Discord> <T​enkawa> Filename: pool/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-iwlwifi_
<Armbian-Discord> <T​enkawa> So why include unless someone needs to go get it for their own uses
<Armbian-Discord> <a​mazingfate> non-free firmwares should be in armbian-firmware-full
<Armbian-Discord> <T​enkawa> yes I agree but should it be installed on the "base" image?
<Armbian-Discord> <T​enkawa> I know its in the repo
<Armbian-Discord> <a​mazingfate> I have it installed on my image to support my wifi out of box.
<Armbian-Discord> <T​enkawa> That wasn't the "question" at hand
<Armbian-Discord> <T​enkawa> non-free firmware has implications for distribution in pre-built images
<Armbian-Discord> <T​enkawa> Just ask people like the Debian group
<Armbian-Discord> <T​enkawa> Gotta run... heading across state.... be back online in a few hours
<Armbian-Discord> <E​feCTN> @amazingfate are hdmi and dp sound working on rock5b with new kernel?
<Armbian-Discord> <E​feCTN> hdmi0-sound and dp0-sound are exists on dmesg output as alsa devices but not exists on pactl list
<Armbian-Discord> <a​mazingfate> I will check that.
<Armbian-Discord> <a​mazingfate> I have to find a monitor with sound output.
<Armbian-Discord> <H​abitualTinkerer> lanefu thanks. That vendor is no longer on AliExpress
<Armbian-Discord> <H​abitualTinkerer> Glad I didn't buy the board before asking here
<Armbian-Discord> <H​abitualTinkerer> Rather they no longer show up in search results but are still listed. Strange
<Armbian-Discord> <H​abitualTinkerer> Most rk3588 SBC prices are absurd. I can buy a fanless 19V Intel board with soldered on Celeron for these prices. Am I missing something?
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> if its orangepi 5 then download and run https://www.armbian.com/orangepi-5/
<Armbian-Discord> <H​abitualTinkerer> Can't find anything with rk3588 and soldered EMMC for a reasonable price
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> then stop searching
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> as "software support" tag is the most important feature
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> unless you are a person that is capable to hack things in low level to adjust your exotic board on your own
<Armbian-Discord> <E​feCTN> Opi5 is pretty cheap
<Armbian-Discord> <E​feCTN> But it's S
<Armbian-Discord> <H​abitualTinkerer> Not sure that I'm capable but I do enjoy a good challenge. Any excuse to learn
<Armbian-Discord> <H​abitualTinkerer> incentive to learn architecture and systems programing. sounds fun
<Armbian-Discord> <I​gorPec> plenty of learning opportunities https://forum.armbian.com/staffapplications/
<Armbian-Discord> <a​mazingfate> @EfeCTN What's your output of ls -l /sys/class/sound/card*?

<Armbian-Discord> <E​feCTN> it's interested not to see them in ALSA
<Armbian-Discord> <a​mazingfate> I will test it tomorrow, have to go sleep now.
<Armbian-Discord> <E​feCTN> good night
<Armbian-Discord> <L​ukasPalm> Thank you. I tried the Debian Beta and I was able to connect it and use it. I will certainly save this.
<Armbian-Discord> <s​tvhay> it can make it a challenge to get connectivity if you don't have an ethernet port laying around, but it sounds like you have reasons
<Armbian-Discord> <s​tvhay> i probably need to do something at my desk to get ethernet there. I have a silly way to do it.. which is probably what ill do

<lanefu> I just put some 16GB Rock 5B boards on ebay..... I'm not the person asking $400 for them lol
<Armbian-Discord> <T​enkawa> @lanefu tired of the Rock5 mess eh?
<lanefu> Not worth fighting for. I had ordered a large quantity with hosting aspirations in a colo before I hit peak SBC burnout
<lanefu> And Im aborting that plan entirely
Tenkawa has quit [Quit: Leaving.]
<lanefu> Performance ROI isn't really there especially after all the suffering required to get there
<Armbian-Discord> <T​enkawa> I hear ya
<lanefu> Things were way more fun when a $50 board got you a lot
<lanefu> I wanna liquidate everything and figure out a way to get a real ARM server for my colo space and be done with it
