janrinze: Dylanger: we got mt8195 devices merged in pmOS
<jenneron[m]>
janrinze: maybe you can try getting nvme to work
<jenneron[m]>
use `git fetch origin && git checkout origin/master` in pmaports tree, then `pmbootstrap kconfig edit linux-postmarketos-mediate-mt81xx`

jenneron[m]: thanks for the heads-up. will have to take a look at it and also want to figure out if I overwrite nvme if the chromebook will still boot (don't want to brick it)
<jenneron[m]>
janrinze: we do overwrite eMMC on other chromebooks
<konradybcio>
janrinze: you can take out the nvme and check if it gives signs of life :P
<janrinze>
konradybcio: take out the nvme?
<konradybcio>
you know, unscrew it and physically remove it
<konradybcio>
that's a perfectly valid simulation of what would happen if it died/was erased
<janrinze>
konradybcio: it does not have 'removable' nvme disk. As far as I can see.
<janrinze>
Haven't seen a teardown of the HP Chromebook x360 13 yet.. been looking for it though.
<janrinze>
konradybcio: you might just be right! the website of HP says that the HP Chromebook x360 13b series has a nvme disk. so it could really be possible. Needs a 'small' form factor one. I'm curious if it anyone has done this before.

hmm previously it was mostly scrolling with the touch screen. now it wants to mark text - what did I do

<jenneron[m]>
assuming you have problems to configure it
<jenneron[m]>
what are you trying to achieve in general?
jglathe_sdbox2 has joined #aarch64-laptops
<claydoh[m]>
I want to do general Linuxy user things (ie install/run Linux on this), but I am far far out of the loop, it has been ages since I have gotten my hands dirty. Have to re-learn most everything. I am just a very long-time Linux desktop user, tbh.
<jenneron[m]>
claydoh: the easiest way is to use this branch and `make sc8180x_defconfig`
<jenneron[m]>
actually the easiest way is to install pmOS on USB.. but if you want another distro then the easiest way is to build kernel with this branch
<_[m]123>
as I remember there's other flex owners in the channel - if they read they can probably give you pointers e.g which distro or whatnot

<claydoh[m]>
Thank you both jenneron (⊙_◎) .
jglathe_x13s has joined #aarch64-laptops
<jenneron[m]>
any arm64 distro
<_[m]123>
maybe it's not necessarily the distro indeed 🙂
<jenneron[m]>
(⊙_◎): claydoh: the only distro that works out of the box is pmOS, for other distros - install distro, build and install kernel, configure using dtb, place initramfs modules if needed, install alsa ucm configs
<jenneron[m]>
i did that on debian, but it is the same for other distros
jglathe_x13s has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
<_[m]123>
can't you just dump the dtb in /efi partition?
<jenneron[m]>
probably no
<jenneron[m]>
this part is x13s specific
<jenneron[m]>
you can configure using dtb in grub
<_[m]123>
oh ok, it's been forever I installed pmos - I think it was on the pinephone
<_[m]123>
whoa so many phones supported now 😲
<_[m]123>
you use it as a daily driver?
<jenneron[m]>
nope
<jenneron[m]>
i might use it on flex/yoga 5g laptop, but i wanted to play around with fex-emu and box86/box64
<_[m]123>
you can't compile it on pmos?
<_[m]123>
I menat for your phone, I never switched back in the day
<jenneron[m]>
(⊙_◎): no multilib for box86 and it is musl which makes things complicated to run prebuilt binaries

I wish I could get a better touchpad for the x13s waw
<_[m]123>
it sucks
<jenneron[m]>
<_[m]123> "I menat for your phone, I..." <- i don't see any well supported phone except pinephone and librem 5 which i don't like
<jenneron[m]>
i don't like msm8916 as well
<_[m]123>
ok
<_[m]123>
I've never tried box86 , it's complementary to fex?

i also need a banking app, i don't see daily driving phone without it
<jenneron[m]>
waydroid is annoying to use and it had problems
<jglathe_volterra>
ooooh the ath11k_pci revolt is back

<jenneron[m]> "i also need a banking app, i don..." <- I had to get another device just for banking since they decided running different os is the same as having a rooted phone 😭
