steevc0rnelius: also, the other day, you said something about flaky wifi and changing the firmware - which firmware did you grab?  i've noticed that the radxa-zero that i have with 64GB emmc seems to have that issue (but not the others)00:00
c0rneliussteev: my 1.5 has issues. I've come to the conclusion its not the firmware but the SDIO in relation to dram_access_quirk inside meson-gx-mmc. As for usb problems I haven't had any but it could be possible. But yeah don't use that that patch, use the initramfs post-update script.00:10
c0rneliushere is the patch/hack I've been using "based on something Neil and Chewitt did for the Vim3" on my rev 1.5: https://paste.debian.net/1233147/00:13
c0rneliusIts been working for me at about a 75% rate. Maybe more?00:14
c0rneliusI think to make it further stable we need to hack brcmfmac but I haven't resorted to that yet.00:15
c0rneliusThe problem is I have zero trouble with 1.4. So I don't wanna introduce patches to a build when it works fine there.00:17
c0rneliusI'm starting to think that changing from gpio 8 to 10 is what created the problem.00:19
c0rneliusThe website says they did it because of "parts reasons" they say other wise on the forum though.00:19
c0rneliusi've also been using this bit of scripting in case the firmware injection takes a shit during boot: https://github.com/pyavitz/debian-image-builder/blob/feature/files/scripts/rzero-tweaks#L1600:55
steevyeah, i have that too05:06
