rapha: Qualcomm ar9271 could be what You are looking for
<Werner>
IRC logging fixed (Whitequark thx!)
<archetech>
sunshavi: thats a good idea
<sunshavi>
archetech: Yes. I have several years working with SBC. I have tested that device even with kernel 4.3. on x86 on compaq n600c laptop
<archetech>
but i think he wants a print server running linux idk why
<sunshavi>
archetech: your only issue would be booting FREEBSD on ur SBC
<sunshavi>
one of my SBC's is with hostapd proving wifi to my home. And It is using that dongle
<sunshavi>
the dongle is being stressed every day
<sunshavi>
s/proving/providing/
<ArmbianHelper>
sunshavi meant to say: one of my SBC's is with hostapd providing wifi to my home. And It is using that dongle
<archetech>
my nas runs the print server done
<sunshavi>
That's cool. 'Having a NAS'
<archetech>
but I prefer wires
<sunshavi>
BTW. I have an epson printer at home. It seems to have an SBC inside. any idea which kind of SBC epson uses?
<archetech>
idk bout having an sbc it prolly has a just a wireless nic
<buZz>
sunshavi: a custom one, obviously ;)
<buZz>
usually 2d printers with networking have 'all the network stuff' on a seperate board from the actual printer 'cnc' stuff
<buZz>
incl the soc that runs the webinterface etc
<buZz>
its not often you can repurpose them, but some ppl did
<buZz>
it can be a quadcore armv7 for all you know
<archetech>
yeah right
<buZz>
many of these printers run something alike ghostscript
<buZz>
to turn vector stuff into bitmaps for the cnc'ing
<buZz>

<buZz>
ARM CPU (speed unknown)
<buZz>
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
<buZz>
ah, its a ARM926EJ
<buZz>
armv7 something
<buZz>
and on that specific printer, with 16MB ram :)
<archetech>
like I said weak
<archetech>
even a cough used rock64 1GB v3 is ~$15 on ebay
<archetech>
so why these peeps wanna fight old boards is beyond me
<Armbian-Discord>
<IgorPec> are you not afraid for your data? 🙂
<archetech>
lol a little
<archetech>
data is on a spnner with ext4 can move it to any board
<buZz>
archetech: imho upcycling ewaste is pretty noble
<archetech>
yeah 2x4" ewaste w/e
<archetech>
have ya looked at the ocean waste problem then tell me about sbc ewaste
<archetech>
tackle that then we deal with little sbc's in dump
<sunshavi>
buZz: thanks
<nekomancer[m]>
incomparable with wolume of mobile phones, tvboves, powrebanks, tablets etc
<buZz>
archetech: i dont see ridiculing small attempts as beneficial to solving bigger issues
<buZz>
archetech: thats like 'i throw my paper in normal garbage because not even 50% of people recycle' :D
<buZz>
i mean, awesome that you feel thats ok, i dont
<nekomancer[m]>
...because I know my city have no recyclung infrastructure, and all "sorted" waste dumps into one dump.
<archetech>
yeah I saw a documentary on the sorting they lie
<sunshavi>
when i connect my SBC to a power bank. I would like to have the lcd of my old casio fx-800p calculator

recycling paper is the most profitable of all recyclings
<buZz>
they literally earn money doing it, it would be foolish of any gov to ignore that
<buZz>
producing paper fresh costs a ton more than recycling old paper
<archetech>
talking plastic not paper
<buZz>
yes, paper, i'm talking paper
<buZz>
hence that i mentioned paper
<archetech>
which armbian dev is gonna fork out $300+ for the upcoming QuartzPro64 ? ;p

I nominate... lanefu.
<p0g0>
as a guy that has worked in the garbage biz, unless you have substandard cheap landfills, pulling recyclables out of the waste stream pays just by avoiding the tipping fees alone.
<p0g0>
and stuff like the USA's Florida is doing right now, making waste incinerators not just legal but subsidized, that nixes any future chance to remine the landfills for recycleables and instead adds unhealthy particulates to the air..
<buZz>
they dont really believe in ecology there , it seems
<buZz>
they oversubsidize inefficient farmers and then blame ppl watering their gardens
<p0g0>
The bag houses that "collect" the particulates are maybe 95-99% effective, and that remainder is actually a big number
<buZz>
while -gardens- lead to less drought
<p0g0>
and you need a hazardous waste landfill for the baghouse waste.
<buZz>
yet, each year so much drought that forestfires are normal and destroy whole suburbs often
<buZz>
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
<p0g0>
yeah, Big Sugar has Florida by the balls
<buZz>
RIP

not a lot of people get how leaf area evaporates 3x more water than dry ground- keep your lawns mowed to the max...
<p0g0>
or don't plant them in deserts

The first newspaper article I could find that discussed CO2 in the air was from about 1915, iirc NZ. You'd think the optical mechanics of 3+atom molecules would be better appreciated.

(Why CO is not a greenhouse gas, but CO2 is)
<p0g0>
And... fwiw, armbian runs a lot of things a lot faster on the rk3399 than debian does. So, hats off and all that.

p0g0: even cpubench?
<p0g0>
I did not try that. After getting Debian testing cleaned up (wifi, keyboard, X11 stuff) I got going on the one 32 bit windows app I need for my Ublox GPS gear- that was painful, qemu runs _very_ slowly and doesn't love i686 emulation at all, and i386 wine32 is about 1/3 the speed of Armbian.
<p0g0>
So, I need that one tool, it's the only game in town for managing clear text settings (vs Hex) for the Zed-F9P unless I want to explore some of the embedded gear that supports it, and I don't.
<buZz>
p0g0: oh, you ment x11 ?
<p0g0>
well, yes, tho some components want the upper case x.
<buZz>
:P
<buZz>
but maybe it was just a mismatched gpu driver then?
<p0g0>
hm, I cleared up the keyboard by simple substituting the armbian kernel 5.15 /etc/X11 dir for the Debian kernel 5.16 /etc/X11 dir, and I don't know what bit of that was critical, but It Worked (tm).

'the config' probably ;)
<p0g0>
The GPU, I think that was OK, most aspect of screen management seemed to run about the same.

I looked at config but nothing lept out at me.

The motive to try Debian testing is the QGIS package in testing, it's got a lot of improvements. Given the ordeal, I should likely just have built QGIS, and may yet try that. Tho I am a bit flogged at the moment.

what are you using qgis for?

Hey, I'm trying to boot Armbian 27 Feb bullseye for Odroid C4 from microSD card and I get dropped to initramfs console because root UUID is not found. I fsck'd the card and it seems okay. Read that I should say to the kernel to wait for root to be found with rootdelay, added a line to armbianEnv.txt to no avail (didn't run any update command,
<Ovroiv9>
though). What are your thoughts? Any other ideas? Thanks!

I am puzzled. I have random HW lockups on helios64. I found a part of a kobol.io patch that was not forward ported : lowering regulator-ramp-delay for vdd_cpu_b to 1000 as most rk3399 board do (instead of 40000)
<prahal>
issue is boot hang midway when I do so ... but this makes no sense to me. Lowering regulator-ramp-delay ought to be more stable voltage wise not the opposite, isn't it ?
alekksander has quit [Quit: Konversation terminated!]
<prahal>
I am lucky. Another stabilisation trick I had removed to avoid mixing different fixes ended up fixing the hang on helios64 with vdd_cpu_b regulator-ramp-delay at value 1000
<prahal>
namely setting vdd_log to 950000 instead of previous 930000 voltage value in /boot/boot.scr (ie ought to be in u-boot)
<prahal>
no, it booted successfuly only once ... now back to random oops or plan freeze
<buZz>
getting there ;)
<buZz>
helios is such a fancy mcu, how is mainline support?
<prahal>
kobol is out of business . It mostly stays in armbian . I doubt much happens about upstreaming
<prahal>
sad :-/
<prahal>
at least regresssion are handled by armbian
<prahal>
though I want to learn I have a hard time handling helios64 issues (moslty voltage and dvs related in my view)
<prahal>
for helios4 I managed to work out a patch for the fan pwm controller
<prahal>
while for helios64 previous emmc regression I even found the commit that broke emmc but it still makes no sense to me : the regulators are now deferred and ends up succeeding. Still emmc ends up broken
<prahal>
are there materials about debugging voltage issues (be it timing or level) ?
