<DC-IRC> <lanefu> So what's panthor?
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> Someone on raxda discord said they got HDMI on rock5b from this mainline fork
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> Panthor is He-Man's cat companion? (_hides_)
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> `- Rename the driver (pancsf -> panthor)`
<DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> Actually that was Skeletor's cat
<DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> He-Man's was Cringer
<DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> heheh
<DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> (I would like to see all the ChronoTrigger/Cross names used for something but I'm sure trademarks would be very hard/costly to accomplish that)
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> Ya know I've never played that game and I probably should
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> All the conversation is that silo instead of this silo
<DC-IRC> <bret> I think I'm missing something here buuut, should I be able to see eMMC when I'm booting from NVMe on the ROCK 5B? Or are there modules/something I need to add to the supported Armbian image for this? Currently investigating but thought I'd ask whilst I look just in case someone saves me some time πŸ˜…
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> Yeah you "should" What kernel?
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> What's lsblk show
<DC-IRC> <bret> Using `5.10.160-rockchip-rk3588` from the latest headless image from the download page grabbed a few days ago, dmesg shows a few `Looking up vmmc-supply property in node` failed messages, lsblk shows:
<DC-IRC> <bret> ```

<DC-IRC> <bret> ```
<DC-IRC> <bret> what I've done so far is boot from sd, use armbian-config to update the bootloader and install to the nvme
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> When I'm doubt I blame uboot
<DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> usually there is some disagreement between u-boot and the kernel agreed
<DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> finding it is the "fun" part
<DC-IRC> <bret> blep, I had this damn thing booted from emmc when I first got it and I'm sure I did benchmarks but I've come back to do my write up and the results aren't in any of my sheets πŸ₯² I'm truly a dumbass
<DC-IRC> <bret> will see what I can find, I didn't really fancy wiping everything again just to get these results but such is life
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> Well try a nightly image there's a new rk3588 legacy kernel
<DC-IRC> <bret> it's times like these I'm glad I picked up a couple of cheap crucial nvme drives in the amazon prime day sales so I can swap them in and out
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> Yeah I have a pile 256g nvmes now
<DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> Sound like me... I have a few 512s now too
<DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> Wanted to try them out... got a good deal on them... they work ok
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> Yeah shockingly fine. Perfect for testing,. Non-critical stuff, lil k8s cluster etc
<DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> Ah
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> I had some that were faster than my wd black. Tony said it well tho "star that burns brighter burns faster". But I'll definitely get my $25 out of them
<DC-IRC> <bret> Hah πŸ˜„ Yeah I need to pick up a decent one so I can actually push things properly. These Crucial P3 Plus ones are _OK_, pcie4 but they're dram cache-less and top out around 1400MB/s for uncached stuff
<DC-IRC> <bret> Got even more annoyed that the mini PC I bought with an Intel N100 only takes the half size nvme drives and I could only source crap ones here. Kinda hurts needing to spend like 150usd+ to get a decent enough one to max out the connections they're in on these boards
<DC-IRC> <bret> someone get me a sabrent hook up 😦
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> I like the skhynix nvmes for actual deployments. Performance value longevity.
<DC-IRC> <bret> ooh, yeah I do like the skhynix ones buuut it's really hard to get them here in Sweden. There's 1 seller listing the P31 and P41 on Amazon here but the customer service address is in the US but business adress in Turkey, with 1* seller rating heh. Would have to grab them from somewhere else and yeah, for SBC testing purposes it's hard to justify this shit at times
<DC-IRC> <bret> especially given I have next to no revenue from it.. sometimes I do wonder why I bother putting myself through this πŸ˜…
<DC-IRC> <bret> ah well, nightly didn't seem to help so I've just put the radxa bootloader back in and we'll go with that, fafftastic
<DC-IRC> <bret> complete side note, the 14 inch "orange pi" monitor is actually pretty damn useful
<DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> 14"? wow
<DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> what type of connector?
_whitelogger has joined #armbian-rockchip
<DC-IRC> <bret> You can connect via HDMI or USB-C DP, it has a 3.5mm headphone jack and takes USB-C power
<DC-IRC> <bret> It's been very handy to sit on the desk for quick SBC testing rather than having to sacrifice one of my usual screens, or have to get a 3rd for the desk
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> anyone know what happened to `CONFIG_MFD_RK808` in 6.5 ?
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> have major breakage on bumping a 3568 from 6.4 to 6.5-rc6
<DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> it has been removed from mainline.. I can tell you that
<DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> found in Linux kernels: 5.3–5.19, 6.0–6.4
<DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> modules built: rk808
<DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> now why... no idea yet... I would start searching but about to lose power (electrician about to shutoff power)
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> what replaces it... a combined module maybe?
<DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> Thats what I'm thinking
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> i kept reading 808 is the same-ish as uhhhh some other number
<DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> good find
<DC-IRC> <tenkawa42> Ok... bbialw once I get power back
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> MFD stands for motherfuckingdeviec?
<DC-IRC> <efectn> i wonder why they didn't make it module
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> yeah that's it. they split into i2c and SPI, and changed defconfig
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> about some 20 other configs depended on it though
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> so when we bump, defconfig is not re-applied.... and all is lost
<DC-IRC> <Tonymac32> The RK8xx family are all very similar, so the 808 driver was covering I think the 805 and 817, and then the rk3588 setup showed up with a SPI one
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> thinking if we should somehow auto-apply defconfig when doing `kernel-config`
<DC-IRC> <Tonymac32> Maybe, these don't happen that often though and are usually pretty easy to adapt
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> @efectn how did you handle this when you bumped the rockchip-rk3588-edge from 6.4 to 6.5-rc1?
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> actually... it was before that
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> was from `6.2.0-rc7` to `6.4.1` + a lot of patches
<DC-IRC> <efectn> just added it manually because of i saw that they changed it
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> ok. it was probably right there in a patch you had just handled.
<DC-IRC> <rpardini> ok I'll stop fretting about upstream defconfig changes πŸ˜‰ thanks yall
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> Anybody in North American have a nanopi R5s they'd like to trade for something?
<DC-IRC> <infinity_q> is there any specific commit in rkr4 that breaks ethernet? I'm punching the air trying to get my hacked-together arch install running
<DC-IRC> <infinity_q> first attempt the USB was broken, second: USB works, eternity doesn't
<DC-IRC> <infinity_q> first attempt the USB was broken, second: USB works, ethernet doesn't
<DC-IRC> <lanefu> How's rkr5 since that got pushed out yesterday
