<DC-IRC> [Discord] <amazingfate> panfrost is enabled from device tree. if you want to use mali blob, devicetree has to be changed
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <microlinux> Ahh okay! Maybe opi 3b images have such kind of dtb?
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <microlinux> I mean, orange pi ones
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <microlinux> Not armbian
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <microlinux> You edited those, so, you probably know
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <microlinux> Kernel wise, nothing to do over there I guess
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <microlinux> Just the dtb and those debs @ioncube7221 mentioned
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <djhardrich> Speaking of dtb’s……. Running into the “can’t see emmc when running armbian-install” issue with the orangepi 5b (dtb is properly set in env, wifi+bt works etc) using the images w/ vendor kernel… also built images, same result
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <djhardrich> Speaking of dtb’s……. Running into the “can’t see emmc when running armbian-install” issue with the orangepi 5b (dtb is properly set in env, wifi+bt works etc) using the images w/ vendor kernel… also built images, same result; can I help sponsor this/the 3b’s support?
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> Is emmc visible during regular usage? Commands like `lsblk` or `fdisk -l` to say
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <djhardrich> Sorry for the delay, writing a new sd image now and editing armbianenv txt
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <djhardrich> Just wrote a new Sid image, they showed up and are in the installer 😵‍💫 installing now, this happened one other time with the current image on the armbian site (6.1 noble gnome) but the install failed and emmc didn’t come up in reboot
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <djhardrich> Just wrote a new Sid image, emmc showed up and is in the installer 😵‍💫 installing now, this happened one other time with the current image on the armbian site (6.1 noble gnome) but the install failed and emmc didn’t come up in reboot
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <djhardrich> Looks like the same behavior, after calculating files (which takes the appropriate amount of time), file copy stage finishes instantly and it doesn’t seem like anything is copied (device can’t boot from emmc after)
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <djhardrich> And upon rebooting from the same sd, emmc not seen on reboot (but dtb is loaded, wifi+bt+gpu work)
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <djhardrich> And upon rebooting from the same sd, emmc not seen on reboot
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <djhardrich> EDIT: some strange behavior, gpu isn’t loaded, makes me wonder if dtb isn’t loading
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <djhardrich> Glmark2-es2-wayland just returned llvmpipe
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> Don't just about the copying speed. This is weird to look at but it actually copies stuff. I noticed a similar behaviour with my tests on the rock3a and nvme/spi boot a few days ago
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <djhardrich> Glmark2-es2-wayland just returned llvmpipe; yet wifi and bt are working
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> Also after armbian-install finishes, do NOT reboot. Just exit and then mount the freshly written emmc and check if the /boot directory is populated
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <djhardrich> Ok, will continue to rewrite (and edit env) to sd, boot, and try to get emmc to pop up… this is the second time I’ve gotten it to show up out of about 15 tries
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <djhardrich> but I have a known “working” image here now
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> Feel free to read from here and below for few more insights about that boot-after-armbian-install-issue: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/46622-boot-fails-after-nvmespi-install/?do=findComment&comment=204955
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <djhardrich> Thanks for the insight, will keep at it and report back!
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <djhardrich> Thanks for the insight, will keep at it and report back…. Fyi, just created the SD again and edited env, emmc didn’t show up (same image, same dtb), just as a data point
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <menu> i *think* that's the same issue i was running into with the installer, manual install worked fine though
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <powerfull_17234> hello again everyone,
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <powerfull_17234> is there any hdmi output module for panther x2 because i has a gpu and vpu on its board but lack the hdmi
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <powerfull_17234> currently im looking for a way to get directly display output from the device
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <menu> i can't even find a schematic for the board to see if the pins are routed anywhere, but it's unlikely they are routed out from under the SoC, so you'd at minimum need to hand-solder to the pin array under the SoC
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <menu> pins are 0.15mm dia., spacing is 0.4mm center-to-center
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> lol good luck with that
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <microlinux> That panther x2 is obnoxiously expensive
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <runaway97> sell it and get a proper sbc if you need one..
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <runaway97> you can vnc/xrdp into it but getting hdmi output is too much hassle for what this device is..
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <amazingfate> for rk356x there should be an overlay like the one for rk3588 to toggle panthor and mali
