hmm
<steev>
no, reset to windows 10 and it's still just not properly installing grub?
<steev>
back in business, had to do the bcdedit thing
<steev>
and audio still errors, well that was a good waste of a night
<steev>
interestingly, i'm getting errno 61 this time, instead of 5

trying to migrate to the c63 and wanted to check the status of some things
<BlitzWorks>
is the pd-mapper and rmtfs and friends still required?
<BlitzWorks>
what are the current set of kernel cmdline boot flags
<BlitzWorks>
and does the mdem work in vanilla 5.13
<steev>
yes, fnot sure, no
<BlitzWorks>
thanks
<steev>
the services will be required for pretty much ever
<BlitzWorks>
does anyone else get a service ordeering startup issue with them?
<BlitzWorks>
i normmaly have to restart one or two before wifi comes up
<BlitzWorks>
and one of thsoe services w(when wifi does nto come up) has a message about somthign being claimed already
<steev>
not here, at least, not in a long time
<steev>
what kernel version are you running?
<BlitzWorks>
compiling a 5.13 atm
<steev>
are you using the aarch64-laptops tree?
<BlitzWorks>
no, my understanding is that mainline works well enough
<BlitzWorks>
the modem and such is a nice to have but not required
<steev>
where do you get your understanding from?
<steev>
i thought, but i could be completely wrong, that backlight and such isn't in vanilla
<steev>
backlight and battery
<BlitzWorks>
ah sorry was doing somthing else
<BlitzWorks>
starts up fine and the screen turns ona nd backlight
<steev>
it's okay, me too
<BlitzWorks>
ahvent checked the battery stats but the keyoard is not working so was just diagnosing that
<steev>
you need i2c_of_hid
<steev>
i2c_hid_of
<BlitzWorks>
and ended up building an arm build farm as its faster than on the device
<BlitzWorks>
the of one? not he acpi one?
<steev>
correct
<BlitzWorks>
thanks
<steev>
you can use
<BlitzWorks>
i grabed the .config from a known working kernel but i suspect that its diffrent to what the kernel was compiled with
<BlitzWorks>
as that module is disabled in .config but present in the kernel
<steev>
there are definitely a few patches you'd want on top of 5.13 though to make things nicer; one is the gpio bit for audio
<steev>
you could look through the commits on that laptops-5.13 i linked
<BlitzWorks>
will do, may make the jump to it then
<steev>
there's definitely extra stuff in it for the flex 5G and not specific to the c630, but that's fine too
<derzahl>
man, even after restoring windows. device sda shows up in grub as hd5
<derzahl>
making it im possible to generate correct grub files since grub-mkconfig thinks is hd0 - as it always had been until last week
<steev>
derzahl: i have that showing here too (hd5) instead of hd0 - but grub seems fine, at least on kali/debian

<derzahl>
oh, really?
<derzahl>
so when you run grub-mkconfig,it used hd5 instead of hd0 for your actual disk?
<steev>
actually, it does use hd0 in the system, but i remember the very first boot when i was trying to do shell.efi stuff, it was claiming to be hd5
<steev>
then again... i was silly and did "mountvol P: /S" and scp'd the shell.efi onto the efi partition in windows, instead of mounting it off the usb
<derzahl>
yeh FS5:
<derzahl>
i remember that from the beginning
<derzahl>
but grub always used to think it was hd0...and still does in the OS
<derzahl>
but then it boots to a grub shell cuz i cant find anything good on hd0
<derzahl>
and hd5 is the disk where all the needed stuff is:(
<derzahl>
well some good news at least. thanks to your sfdump info i was able to all the the proper partition type guids and extra attributes back to /dev/sdf
<derzahl>
and now windows has wifi!
<derzahl>
you think i could get one of those stripped down rpi windows arm64 versions and put that on the c630 in a small partition?
<bamse>
derzahl: doubt that you would have sufficient driver support...or that you would like to tackle that problem
<steev>
you could always just strip out all the cruft, and then.... just shrink the partition in linux
<steev>
windows still won't let me shrink it past 77gb no matter what but linux was like "smallest you can make it is 20GB"
FizzBuzz has joined #aarch64-laptops
<bamse>
will it boot after that?
<derzahl>
i have been tryingto shrink it and that fucker is 20GB
<derzahl>
any idea are welcome:)
<steev>
bamse: yeah windows boots just fine there's like 2gb free
