artemist 🏳️⚧️ | Is there a Tow-Boot matrix | 23:42:32 |

artemist 🏳️⚧️ | I saw a link but Element wouldn't load it | 23:42:41 |
samueldr | #Tow-Boot:matrix.org | 23:42:49 |
samueldr | though it's fine here too since it's now on the Linux side of things :) | 23:42:59 |
samueldr | this is totally a weird interaction with Linux and U-Boot's EFI stuff | 23:43:18 |
samueldr | it's apparently a "known issue" upstream | 23:43:29 |
samueldr | but last I tried getting information about how this is a "known" issue upstream | 23:43:39 |
samueldr | I got cussed at | 23:43:42 |
samueldr | not by upstream | 23:43:53 |
samueldr | but by the individual telling me it's a known issue | 23:43:59 |
artemist 🏳️⚧️ | "Known issue, but you aren't allowed to know about it" | 23:44:35 |
samueldr | really soured my mood | 23:44:41 |
samueldr | but, I would recommend using the kernel configuration you find there since it's the "well tested" community-ran configs | 23:45:17 |
samueldr | it'll make the type-c DP output work | 23:45:26 |
samueldr | fixes an issue with wifi reboots | 23:45:34 |
samueldr | * fixes an issue with wifi and reboots | 23:45:36 |
samueldr | some of those are workarounds not proper for mainline, but the individuals who made the workarounds are working on proper fixes | 23:45:59 |
samueldr | the "pinebookpro-config" bit with y for a couple of modules is not actually needed, only useful to force those modules built-in as, anyway, you're gonna build a kernel | 23:46:35 |
| sumner joined the room. | 23:46:37 |
samueldr | oh, look, here's the other place where I forgot I wrote about the known issue:
https://github.com/samueldr/wip-pinebook-pro#known-issues | 23:47:21 |
samueldr | and there's now an outdated bit! | 23:47:33 |
samueldr | outdated bit crossed-out | 23:49:48 |
sumner | FWIW, I am getting the install-info: Cannot allocate memory for gzip -d error as well (not on ARM). It was working, but then I enabled nginx and acme and it started failing. | 23:50:30 |
samueldr | odd! | 23:50:42 |
samueldr | (but then that means it's not an ARM issue) | 23:50:59 |
