raitobezarius | I am still interested to build one | 15:49:20 |
raitobezarius | But maybe we should define a core set of packages | 15:49:27 |
Pratham Patel (you can mention me) | The VisionFive2, though having the same cores as the HiFive Unmatched, has come uarch improvements (kinda like a "v2" of the core), making it a bit faster for compilation. But gets severely hindered by half the RAM (8) compared to what you get on the Unmatched (16). | 15:50:25 |
raitobezarius | I'd not say that RAM is the biggest deal tbf | 15:51:04 |
raitobezarius | You can eval nixpkgs on a x86 | 15:51:09 |
Pratham Patel (you can mention me) | Not the biggest, but is a pain point tbh | 15:51:19 |
raitobezarius | For what exactly? | 15:51:28 |
Pratham Patel (you can mention me) | and no PCIe support yet (patches sent, getting merged and might be in 6.10), so can't use swap that "well" | 15:52:32 |
raitobezarius | Yeah I have seen the PCIe circus | 15:54:22 |
raitobezarius | That's my biggest annoyance | 15:54:29 |
raitobezarius | Because NVMe for builders would be very nice | 15:54:43 |
Pratham Patel (you can mention me) | In reply to @raitobezarius:matrix.org For what exactly? well, fedora packaging might be crazy but something this insane might've been a need https://matrix.to/#/!GhnNOKFLyvWBmnjqRS:fedoraproject.org/$C8oSRQ2RM6rpaAjTQpshPYtYs1bXbMRlXWIUdcT648A?via=fedoraproject.org&via=fedora.im&via=matrix.org | 15:54:45 |
raitobezarius | I'd be curious which package is this one | 15:55:36 |
