<anarchron>
so this might be of a random q but where would one go to hire a arm kernel space developer?
<amstan>
anarchron: linked in or probably the various companies that specialize in such things
<amstan>
collabora and baylibre come to mind, i'm sure i missed a couple more
<anarchron>
cheers
<anarchron>
i would trawl through the mailing lists but it doesn't show where people are located
<amstan>
anarchron: this chatroom is probably not a bad idea either, heh
<anarchron>
well, if you
<anarchron>
you're in Melb, AU I'm hiring a kernel space developer :)
<amstan>
i already have a job unfortunatelly and quite far from Melb
<anarchron>
haha fair enough

<amstan>
steev is a pretty cool guy, he does kernel and doesn't afraid of anything
<anarchron>
AU is a long way from Texas though :P
<steev>
i travel light
<amstan>
anarchron: i tried to DM you

So I was planning on rolling out x13s as potential standard issue but no camera is a deal breaker
<martiert>
is steev in texas? He just doesn't sleep? Answering me during the day means middle of night for him.

steev is omnipresent in all locations and all timezones ;P
<HdkR>
Sounds a bit like my insomnia
<martiert>
I'm suspecting steev to be four kobolds in a trenchcoat, all taking turns answering here, working, sleeping, and eating
<martiert>
I have made progress on getting nixos to boot the x13s, but need some help with grub. I tried using the kernel, initrd and dtb from my nixos build, to boot using the setup I have for archlinux. And that works well. Which I think would mean that grub is the reason I can't boot it. Does grub need to be built in a particular way?
<steev>
HdkR: close, i've got DSPD. not quite the same, but similar
<HdkR>
Ah, very interesting

hexdump0815: Any chance you have a booting windows install on the book go still?
<travmurav[m]>
If yes, could you check the right click on start -> event viewer -> windows logs -> system and check if there is a big nice "Failed to launch hypervisor" error?
<travmurav[m]>
I spent a day trying to find an el2 takeover just to realize even windows doesn't reach el2 on my thing...

and... when i do sleep, i wake up a number of times, so if i see a notification, i answer it :)
<clover[m]>
Bios supports Linux now? Does this mean acpi?
<hexdump0815>
travmurav[m]: of course i still have this wonderful os still around on my galaxy book go :) ... will check what you asked for during the next days and will report back here
<hexdump0815>
travmurav[m]: there was a time when wsl2 did not even work in win11 but after some updates it is now working - maybe that is related?
<travmurav[m]>
Oh wsl2 works?
<travmurav[m]>
hexdump0815: if wsl2 works on book go that would answer my question too I think
<travmurav[m]>
(I have never connected windows to the internet on my laptop, apart from maybe a minute today to try getting the wsl/hyperv components, so if it was broken and fixed by an update, I suppose mine would be very broken)
<hexdump0815>
it was broken when i tried it about a year ago or so (system hang on boot when trying to enable vm support), but with 22h2 it is working now - lets see for how long ... :)
<travmurav[m]>
hexdump0815: thanks, so I suppose the bsp is working and takeover exists on 7c, just my thing is sad...
<hexdump0815>
travmurav[m]: in case you ever think about updating your win on that thing, its always a good idea to set a restorepoint beforehand as arm64 might end up in a non booting state even more than x86 :)
<travmurav[m]>
I have a full disk backup, what I care about is if this thing decides to update the bootchain
<travmurav[m]>
I guess I could break the efi update capsule partition

steev: any idea what the new Linux switch in the BIOS means for x13s?
<steev>
the what
<travmurav[m]>
one way to check is to switch it and see if it boots :D
<steev>
man, if that gave us el2
<steev>
el0?
<steev>
idk, whatever one we don't have now
<travmurav[m]>
el2
<clover[m]>
i switched it on, nothing feels different
<steev>
lol
<travmurav[m]>
clover: dmesg | grep "all cpus booted in"? :D
<steev>
lol

<steev>
clover[m]: yeah, i'd do a dmesg between the two switches and see what, if anything, changes
<steev>
could be something for fedora though, who knows
<kettenis>
maybe compare the acpi tables?
<clover[m]>
It doesn't seem to fix Secure Boot
<steev>
is secure boot broken?
<clover[m]>
Secure boot doesn't let you boot Linux. Whether or not the new Linux switch is enabled
<steev>
it should... just shouldn't be able to load your own dtb
<steev>
and your kernel should be signed? i think?
