LuK1337: Some dude is porting capricorn to kernel 4.4
<
sullivan781>
Testers say even FP is working
<
LuK1337>
i knew about 4.4 kernel since idk over last year?
<
LuK1337>
talked with the person responsible on August 2019
<
LuK1337>
so there's that
<
LuK1337>
it's using same fp driver
<
LuK1337>
and blobs as 3.18
<
LuK1337>
like exactly same
<
LuK1337>
he couldn't get 4.4 driver working since it communicates over different protocol and so on
<
LuK1337>
so he copy pasted 3.18 driver
<
LuK1337>
so i doubt that kernel upver fixed fp
<
LuK1337>
also self reminder: rebuild capricorn

really wish blobs weren't an issue in android. could be so much better lol
<
LuK1337>
if android wasn't android
<
LuK1337>
android would be much better if every oem out there didn't fork it
<
LuK1337>
it'd be nice if android was open source but oems weren't allowed to change the ui and features
<
LuK1337>
and thus all devices were pretty much unified
<
LuK1337>
and obviously if oems wanted some feature they'd have to have code for it upstream
<
hanetzer>
yep. its a fucked situation all around.
<
LuK1337>
windows phone was better
<
LuK1337>
just not open source
<
LuK1337>
but at least it provided unified experience across all devices
