ChanServ changed the topic of #aarch64-laptops to: Linux support for AArch64 Laptops (Asus NovaGo TP370QL - HP Envy x2 - Lenovo Mixx 630 - Lenovo Yoga C630)

I was thinking of liquid metal mine because of no fan, maybe even modding the heat pipe, it also seems as though the chassis is a way for the cpu to cool down as mine got so hot it coud burn me
<steev>
definitely
<HdkR>
Chassis is quite warm with this burn, but in a 20-23C room I think 73C on the cores is fine. Will retest a full CPU + GPU burn once GPU is up :P
<steev>
clover[m]: how much battery is left? i've only seen that when it has < X% of battery
<szclsya[m]>
it's probably the graphite thermal pad. the whole area with the thermal pad gets hot
<steev>
the cores will reach 95C iirc before throttling
<AlexMarty[m]>
it ws right above the volume buttons f2/f3
<steev>
yeah, thats' where the majority of the heatsink is
<AlexMarty[m]>
sweet well now I know. I might try and solder on another pipe if I can find room for it
<clover[m]>
100% 😕
<harvests[m]>
I notice the heat when I'm charging and using it at the same time
<szclsya[m]>
yup, charging makes it extra hot for some reason
<harvests[m]>
No heat when it's charging and off though
<szclsya[m]>
mine still gets pretty hot when off and charging especially at low battery with a 65w charger
<szclsya[m]>
I was guessing it could be the DC-DC circuitry
<clover[m]>
i tried a manual BIOS update too, it threw some 'failed to flash' error
<clover[m]>
i wonder if i corrupted my efi partition or something
<steev>
the bios doesn't live in the efi, i don't think
<steev>
you mean it gave you an executable? or you went into the lenovo app and ran it?

Downloaded exe from lenovo site. It suggests that in the Readme
<steev>
interesting
<steev>
blargh, i think i know why my audio is broken on c630
<steev>
nope, that ain't it
<steev>
there was an alsa-ucm-conf update that dropped the changes, but still getting deferred device
<steev>
no offense broonie, but i really hate alsa :P

Found out why erofsfuse was returning ENOSUPPORT. I had built it without LZ4 support.
<HdkR>
Package maintainer is the developer themselves, and debian bug reporting is through email.
<HdkR>
I'm sure this will sort itself out at some point
<steev>
ah
<steev>
actually there are no bug reports on erofs-utils currently
<steev>
could be no one has bothered requesting it
<steev>
sadly, the debian packaging isn't on salsa
<steev>
HdkR: according to the configure, AC_MSG_ERROR([libfuse (>= 2.6) doesn't work properly])]) - they disable it because supposedly it doesn't work properly :(
<steev>
actually wtf
<HdkR>
Yep, noticed that while I was poking at it. Literally doesn't support fuse3
<clover[m]>
also if anyone in here is interested but if x13s is a smidge higher than your budget, a redditor sent me this today
<clover[m]>
>THINKBIGDEALS and BTS2022 - with these two eCoupons yesterday I got $1024 for base trim. At Lenovo US...
<steev>
yeah, they usually run deals like that
<steev>
and i greatly appreciate them
iivanov has quit [Quit: Leaving...]
<AlexMarty[m]>
Should have used tgat when I bought mine 😭
<clover[m]>
the repairability of the x13s is actually pretty damn good.
<steev>
yeah but it doesn't seem like you can buy just the wwan device from them currently :(
<clover[m]>
and im guessing those of us who skimped on the 5G model also are lacking the connector cables (wow thats a lot of connector wires btw)
<AlexMarty[m]>
I didn’t want 5g or a touch screen but I wanted 32gb of ram and only one sku had it. I wish they had one with no touchscreen and 32gb of ram
<szclsya[m]>
we may need a new chassis too, non wwan model doesn't seem to have a sim socket on it
<AlexMarty[m]>
Yeah no sim slot
<clover[m]>
is that requred or can the sim be applied before the wwan card is installed?
<AlexMarty[m]>
Virtual sim?
<szclsya[m]>
personally I just want to put a secondary ssd in it. sabrent seems to make a decent 2242 ssd
<HdkR>
Watch out for keying differences
<clover[m]>
thinking about returning mine for a 5G model if i have some bad board that can't update BIOS!
<szclsya[m]>
what key does it use? I think that ssd uses m key
<szclsya[m]>
* what key does the wwan slot use? I think that ssd uses m key
<HdkR>
ssd slot is definitely m key. Looks like the wwan slot is using B key.
<HdkR>
I'd guess with only the pcie lanes wired as well, so sata B drives wouldn't work
<szclsya[m]>
yeah, it may not have a sata controller at all
<clover[m]>
after talking with lenovo customer service, im going to be replacing my unit. i also asked for an upgrade to a 5G model...
<harvests[m]>
I'll give the bios update a try
<steev>
i wish they had upgraded me to the 32GB model after shipping me the Thinkpad T14 instead of X13s and taking a month to ship me the correct one :(
<steev>
but i'm okay with not having the touch screen
<harvests[m]>
yeah I ended up going with the 16gig ram model since I didn't want a touch screen
<harvests[m]>
I hope it's enough to compile llvm quickly lol
<steev>
should be
<harvests[m]>
last time I hacked on llvm 3.9 it would be around 11gig of ram to compile
<AlexMarty[m]>
I kinda want to disable the touch screen completely. Is there a way to do that or should I just unplug the digitizer
<clover[m]>
y'all are insane. nothing better than lying supinated with your laptop on your chest scrolling through youtube comments at 4AM
<clover[m]>
also windows 11 can emulate android apps!!11 fruit ninja anyone??
<clover[m]>
although id be interested to see how much unplugging digitizer improves battery
<harvests[m]>
my bios 1.19 updated fine
<clover[m]>
that's good
<clover[m]>
you used Vantage?
<steev>
AlexMarty[m]: if you don't mind patching your kernel, you could simply comment out the touchscreen device in it. if you use something like sway, you can disable it in the config
<harvests[m]>
clover[m]: yeah ended up using vantage
