<fliife>
hi! i'm installing gentoo, followed the handbook up until kernel stuff, and following chadmed's guide using asahi-gentoosupport
<fliife>
thing is when emerging asahi-meta
<fliife>
there are some USE flags dependencies missing
<fliife>
like dracut on linux, rustfmt and rust-src on rust-bin
<chadmed>
[ebuild R ] dev-lang/rust-bin-1.77.1:stable::gentoo USE="rust-src rustfmt ???
<fliife>
is that like expected ? i'll try adding them to my package.use/ and report back but this is breaking the install script (no biggie i'll just edit it)
<fliife>
yes
<fliife>
and also video_card_asahi on mesa
<fliife>
video_cards_asahi (typo)
<fliife>
worth mentionning I added the wayland global use flag during setup
<chadmed>
are you going for a minimal setup or a desktop
<fliife>
desktop/systemd
<chadmed>
ok yeah you need those use flags
<fliife>
i'll do that ty
<fliife>
somewhat unrelated, but are bindist okay on asahi ? since it's a weird architecture i'm wondering if it's worth setting up
<chadmed>
the machines are fully normal arm64 machines. you should have no problem with standard arm64 binpkgs
<chadmed>
EXCEPT for stuff that relies on jemalloc or otherwise makes the incorrect assumption that memory pages are 4k
<fliife>
which manifests itself as segfault, is that right ?
<chadmed>
mostly yes but it depends
<chadmed>
jemalloc will print a warning then exit cleanly
<LarstiQ>
zig will reach unreachable code and stop compiling

so... i guess i should have emerged linux-firmware before rebooting, right ?
<fliife>
gentoo is up and running, without any knowledge of the available network hardware
<j`ey>
linux-firmware doesn't have anything for us
<fliife>
right, was there a step for networking that i missed ?
<fliife>
i installed networkmanager
<fliife>
but it doesn't detect any hardware
<fliife>
WIFI-HW is missing, WIFI is enabled
<stintel>
sys-firmware/asahi-firmware ?
<fliife>
the only network interface i have is `lo`
<jannau>
linux firmware provides the firmware for the ethernet adapters on desktop systems
<jannau>
the firmware handling is special and the initramfs mounts a tmpfs to /lib/firmware/vendor/ and copies the firmware there. This was previously an issue but I thought it was fixed
<jannau>
chadmed: we should let a package (dracut-asahi or asahi-firmware) create /lib/firmware/vendor/

chadmed: dodir doesn't do anything if it doesn't have any files in it. keepdir is needed. Portage doesn't retain completely empty folders.
<leio>
dodir docs spell that out too, surprised to see :)

hello everyone! sorry for the bother but today after a bit of macOS usage my display in gentoo is flickering and artifacting and the image would suddenly disappear - is this a "prepare to die" scenario? tho it won't happen on macOS
mkurz has joined #asahi-alt
<mps>
idk, but my son showed to me external display flickering with macos on m1pro when have a full screen vscode with text
<mps>
nyaomixyz: ^
<mps>
I tried to test with linux but couldn't get HDMI display to work
<nyaomixyz>
mps: in my macbook pro m1 pro the display would randomly flicker at times, but the image wouldn't go out, so I thought it must've been some kinda graphics corruption led by kwin.
<nyaomixyz>
today i read the announcement on mastodon that there was a new update for m1n1 so, before starting to work on stuff, i booted macOS and I did the upgrade
<nyaomixyz>
also because lately I've been using macOS so an automatic update to 14.5 could've been around the corner
<nyaomixyz>
tonight I booted the machine back to Gentoo and I found the display flickering into oblivion, and the only way to get an image back is by resetting the display (eg. closing the lid and opening it again)
<nyaomixyz>
I did sync and update my computer shortly after, but the symptoms are still there
<nyaomixyz>
right now I am running the dist kernel 6.8.9_p3
