| fufexan | have you guys had similar issues? 😆 | 08:20:06 |
| fufexan | seems like tty looks like this, but the GUI actually looks fine | 08:20:18 |
 matthewcroughan - nix.how | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/168826#issuecomment-1152990386 | 08:20:22 |
 dramforever | there's a forum post about this i think | 08:20:23 |
| dramforever | something about unsupported resolutions | 08:20:30 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | Looks like luizribeiro got the wifi working via this comment | 08:20:48 |
| dramforever | weird display issue: https://forum.rvspace.org/t/my-bootup-screen-is-all-blurred/515 | 08:21:07 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | which I can add to my visionfive-cross-x86 images attribute in my visionfive-nix flake, and you should then see the wifi just work when you build that image | 08:21:08 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | I will also add a nixinate output that lets you nix run .#apps.nixinate.visionfive-nix and deploy to the board | 08:21:52 |
| fufexan | would be appreciated | 08:21:57 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | then you won't have to keep re-flashing it | 08:22:07 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | could also just use nixos-rebuild switch --target-host, but nixinate is at least declarative and lets me encode that in the flake, but that really is all it takes to deploy to a machine | 08:22:32 |
| fufexan | I can also use your repo in my dotfiles to configure the board and then deploy it? | 08:22:46 |
| fufexan | * can I also use your repo in my dotfiles to configure the board and then deploy it? | 08:22:54 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | Not sure what you mean by that | 08:23:04 |
| fufexan | uh, use whatever nixpkgs + overlays you have for the board | 08:23:27 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | It's better just to use the flake as is, it's not very re-usable if you want to import it into your own flake | 08:23:28 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | I could make functions like mkVisionFive ./configuration.nix which would be very re-usable | 08:23:59 |
| fufexan | that would be nice | 08:24:24 |
| dramforever | there could be a visionfive.nix module that adds things like config.system.build.flashBootloader | 08:24:44 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | We'll start to compete with yocto big time if someone made libraries of functions to make boards work like that :P | 08:24:44 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | In reply to @dramforever:matrix.org
there could be a visionfive.nix module that adds things like config.system.build.flashBootloader And that could be added to the linux_visionfive pr right? | 08:25:34 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | I suppose I'll work on that, and add it to nixpkgs when done | 08:25:50 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | but that requires merging https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/168826 | 08:26:01 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | I would really rather see it merged now, since it works so well | 08:26:07 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | I could make the argument that it should be merged now, so that work like this can be done on top of this PR, but what do you think? | 08:26:43 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | If we don't merge it, it just gets stale, and work cannot be done. The PR works fine. | 08:27:07 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.how | If it were merged now, I'd work on adding wifi, and then the flashBootloader script, in my own PR. | 08:27:54 |
