Vallrrq:  thanks again, will check those too00:06
c0rneliussteev: When you get a chance I wanna see if turbe-mode works -> https://github.com/pyavitz/binary/releases/download/060420/g12a-radxa-zero-debian-bullseye-5.15.6-2021-12-04.img.xz16:10
steevsure, can  do18:00
c0rneliusalso if you could, see if this has any effect on the audio.18:12
c0rneliushttps://github.com/pyavitz/binary/releases/download/060420/meson64-linux-headers_5.15.6-5_arm64.deb18:12
c0rneliushttps://github.com/pyavitz/binary/releases/download/060420/meson64-linux-image_5.15.6-5_arm64.deb18:12
c0rneliusCould make it worse, but I added some extra audio bits and changed the way they set the codec under the hdmi.18:16
steevc0rnelius: no luck on the audio.  https://bpa.st/5YZQ oc seems to be working :D18:33
c0rneliuswell at least I got that right18:34
c0rneliuswhat happens when you run alsamixer? no mixer found?18:34
steevlet me swap back to other sdcard18:35
steevmixer finds, just the usual spam of no backend dais found18:43
c0rneliusoh ok. Thanx.18:44
c0rneliusaplay -l still showing?18:44
c0rneliushave you tried installing pulseaudio and seeing if it shows up there or functions on a basic level? Even on just a vendor normal kernel?18:46
c0rneliusfor example: amixer -D pulse sset Master 5%+18:47
c0rneliuscould also try python3-pip and sudo pip3 install pulsemixer18:48
c0rneliuseven when alsamixer doesn't show anything pulse can still sometimes work.18:48
c0rneliusI remember back in the early days of rk3328 that was the only way to set the volume on the renegade.18:50
steevvendor kernel lets me change the volume but, nothing18:54
c0rneliusAlright.18:54
steevlet me check18:55
c0rneliuscould be set to mute by default?18:57
c0rneliusamixer -D pulse sset Master unmute18:58
steevso19:01
steevon vendor19:01
steevpulsemixer shows nothing19:01
steevon yours, it does19:02
steevbut still no actual output19:03
c0rneliuswell thats a start19:05
steevindeed19:05
c0rneliusI'll keep playing with it. thanx for trying.19:05
steevno problem19:10
steevc0rnelius: fwiw, there's also #linux-amlogic which has people like narmstrong and chewitt in it19:46
c0rneliusYeah I know.19:50
gnarfacei got chimaera booting on a pine64+ board (1GB) but had some trouble with debootstrap not completing... anyone debootstrap chimaera arm64 lately and run into a pre-dependency loop of some sort?22:06
c0rneliusno but I can... one sec.22:07
c0rneliusI've had it fail on me before but its usually a mirror thing or something22:09
c0rneliusgnarface: at one point is it failing?22:12
c0rneliusone/what*22:12

steevc0rnelius: i've been letting it build a kernel with 2GHz enabled, and no cooling at all (silly but i was curious) - so far it gets up to 72C and no locking up or powering off22:19
steevdoesn't appear to throttle at 72C either22:19
c0rneliusWell it is an amlogic soc they tend to run cold, but I would at least put a heatsink on that.22:22
c0rneliusif that was an RK3328 the board would have locked up :)22:22
steevtrue that22:24
c0rneliusWhat does that board idle at, in the 30s?22:24
steev40-45 give or take22:24
steevat least in my apartment which is ambiant 2122:25
c0rneliusmakes sense. small form factor and no cooling whatsoever.22:26
steevwell, plus the default of running at 1.8GHz22:33
steevi also switch to schedutil (ondemand would also work), to let it drop to 100MHz when it's idle22:34
c0rneliusI've been using schedutil's a lot too.22:35
c0rneliusI found the microvolt for the 2GHz by reading through the forum, but they posted it all in hexadecimals. So I needed to do a translate on that. Who the hell uses hexadecimals?22:37
c0rneliusMy guess was pretty close. I was off by like a digit.22:38
c0rneliusgnarface: The debootstrap and test img built fine. I got one fail, but thats pretty normal. Bad mirror and connection dropped.22:41
steevc0rnelius: do you have that forum link still there?22:48
c0rneliushttps://forum.radxa.com/t/introduce-the-radxa-zero/655022:50
c0rneliusIt's further down the scroll22:50
steevoh, i hadn't read through that much22:51
steev"Yes, the left USB C is 3.0 type C host only"22:52
c0rneliusSo I was looking at this. https://github.com/chewitt/linux/commit/6225e543aec610c9a0d37f215cd75fd0bc3870b322:55
c0rneliusThe board also has SPDIF22:56
c0rneliusLooks pretty similar or at least something worth trying.22:57
c0rneliusMy last approach was to include +#include <dt-bindings/sound/meson-g12a-toacodec.h>23:00
c0rneliusWhich is why hdmi still had no sound but pulse worked.23:00
c0rneliusWould be my guess23:00
gnarfacec0rnelius: i forget exactly, it seemed like a bunch of stuff like debconf and libc623:29
Vall   rrq: just found some missing packages in your pool1 ISO (hostapd among others). Are there additional ISOs (eg, pool2, etc) with additional packages?23:31
gnarfacec0rnelius: hang on i'll try it again23:36
steevc0rnelius: i thought we had it23:37
steevby we, i mean the dts, but i don't think i looked at the 5.1523:37
c0rneliushdmi audio?23:37
steevyeah, the 5.15 already has it in it23:38
c0rneliusI thought you said there was no sound though?23:38
steevdoesn't mean the parts aren't already in the dts23:38
c0rneliusTrue... It could be something in the meson/sound part of the kernel23:39
steevyeah, i was looking at the kodi patches23:39
steevbut not very closely23:39
steevhttps://github.com/chewitt/LibreELEC.tv/tree/amlogic-upstream/projects/Amlogic/devices/AMLGX/patches/linux these23:39
c0rneliusI was trying to find the manjaro ones, but I can't seem to find there source23:40
steevhttps://github.com/chewitt/LibreELEC.tv/blob/amlogic-upstream/projects/Amlogic/devices/AMLGX/patches/linux/amlogic-0021-FROMGIT-ASoC-meson-implement-driver_name-for-snd_soc.patch23:40
c0rneliusYea I saw that one on lore today.23:41
gnarfacec0rnelius: did you use any includes or excludes?23:42
steevhttps://gitlab.manjaro.org/manjaro-arm/packages/core/linux should be their kernel sauces23:42
c0rneliusgnarface: no23:46
gnarfacec0rnelius: it wasn't initially clear where it failed actually but i see now it just silently stops after extracting a bunch of packages, it doesn't continue on to setting them up23:46
gnarfacec0rnelius: stuff like /etc/passwd is missing in the resulting target23:47
gnarfacec0rnelius: i was able to get a bootable system up and running by eventually installing tasksel and running it with --new-install23:47
gnarfacec0rnelius: but i had already done a bunch of forced installs, hammering away at the dependency loop that appeared when i tried to figure out what was missing without tasksel, (apt install -f and such)23:48
c0rneliusstrange, how are you running the debootstrap? Are you using the second stage?23:48
gnarfacemaybe i've forgotten that ?23:48
gnarface*should* there be a second stage to this?  debootstrap --arch=arm64 --foreign chimaera ./temp_debootstrap_target_chimaera/23:49
gnarfacethis worked on ascii23:49
gnarfaceer, worked with ascii from the version of ceres i was using at the time, i mean23:49
gnarface(i'm doing this from ceres)23:49
c0rneliushttps://github.com/pyavitz/debian-image-builder/blob/feature/lib/function/rootfs#L7423:50
gnarfaceit's possible i ran into it before23:50
c0rneliusI'm using varibled here but should be easy to understand23:50
c0rneliusvariables*23:50
steevif you use --foreign, yes, you need to run --second-stage manually23:51
gnarfacehuh, maybe i just forgot to put the --second-stage one in my notes or maybe just never knew it and had some other wrong way of making it complete last time23:51
gnarfacehmmm....23:51
steevif you're using a new enough debootstrap, it should be able to recognize foreign arch and do it itself23:51
steevand you can leave off --foreign23:51

steev"active" cooling by hanging it over a fan23:52
Vallrrq: you there?23:59
rrqyes23:59
