<jenneron[m]>
are you sure ctrl + d doesn't work on tablets?
<hpag[m]>
As I saw, it doesn't. Not exactly sure tho
<jenneron[m]>
you can try it, anyway you can disable developer mode whenever you want
<jenneron[m]>
bonfire_: does booting with Ctrl + D / Ctrl + U work for you?
<hpag[m]>
jenneron[m]: But it formats the device yet again
<jenneron[m]>
yes
<bonfire_>
hpag[m]: yes I had to enable developer mode in Chrome OS to flash PMOS and yes it still has that annoying screen
<hpag[m]>
damn
<hpag[m]>
bonfire_: I have the snapdragon version but I don't really want to bother with that boot screen. Is there no workaround for that?
<bonfire_>
there is probably some super l33t hax0r out there who can make it work without the bootscreen. I am not that person.
<bonfire_>
but yes, doing Ctrl+D at that bootscreen boots from "Internal Disk"
<hpag[m]>
bonfire_: wait, does the keyboard case work on the boot screen?
<bonfire_>
yes
<hpag[m]>
well that's kinda nice
<bonfire_>
yah it's not that big of a deal hitting up/down arrows a few times. but Crtl+D is even better :)
<hpag[m]>
How's pmos on it btw?
<hpag[m]>
I'm currently using it with chromeos
<bonfire_>
mmm I can't quite get it to daily driver yet, but overall very promising
<jenneron[m]>
bonfire_: is it because of screen issue or anything else?
<hpag[m]>
bonfire_: it's a nice device I think, something I'd carry around with me rather than a bulky laptop
<bonfire_>
jenneron[m]: FDE was one blocker, now wireguard is the last!
<jenneron[m]>
bonfire_: FDE works as we discovered
<jenneron[m]>
wireguard should work after recent upgrade too, run apk upgrade -a to get it
<bonfire_>
yes I got it working with unl0kr :)
<bonfire_>
oh wow, lots to upgrade!
<hpag[m]>
bonfire_: does gpu and sound work?
<jenneron[m]>
he has mt8183 one
<jenneron[m]>
not 7c
<hpag[m]>
Ah right, I forgot. Sorry
<jenneron[m]>
gpu should work, 6xx are the best supported adreno in mesa
<bonfire_>
sound works and gpu seems to work
<jenneron[m]>
hpag: i will let you know once i have anything to test
<hpag[m]>
Like what
<jenneron[m]>
like pmaports branch with kernel and device packages
<hpag[m]>
You have the same duet?
<jenneron[m]>
no
<jenneron[m]>
i still can maintain it
<jenneron[m]>
well as far as i can not having a device
<hpag[m]>
Oh nice
<jenneron[m]>
i would like to have support for all mainlined arm chromebooks in pmos
<hpag[m]>
I think tablets are pretty underrated in terms of mainline support
<bonfire_>
huzzah wireguard works now :))
<hpag[m]>
They would be more useful than mainlining phones
<bonfire_>
I was noticing powerdrain is pretty harsh. even when powered "off"
<bonfire_>
weren't you discussing this above jenneron[m] ?
<jenneron[m]>
it happens on 2 of my devices
<jenneron[m]>
one of them is mt8173c
<bonfire_>
huh. i wonder if this would help "cpupower frequency-set -g conservative"
<jenneron[m]>
doubtful
<jenneron[m]>
power off issue is most likely not properly implemented power off
<jenneron[m]>
or hardware issue
<bonfire_>
yah at that stage for sure, but even when running device it drains rather fasst
<bonfire_>
what it feels like after "poweroff" is that the device is in some state of "sleep" whereby a subtle touch of power button and i'm instantly at the boot screen
<hpag[m]>
<bonfire_> "I was noticing powerdrain is..." <- really? how bad is it
<bonfire_>
I get probably 1.5-2 hrs per full charge
<bonfire_>
maybe less depending on what i'm doing
<hpag[m]>
WHAT
<hpag[m]>
bonfire_: Just reflash chromeos dude, it's not worth it
<hpag[m]>
that thing has 7000mah battery and can only last 2hrs?
<bonfire_>
yeah... i'm pretty close to that. but I just. despise google.
<bonfire_>
and also having control over my device is of utmost importance
<bonfire_>
i'll see how this cpupower tool works
<bonfire_>
but it's also fun contrib and learning more :)
<hpag[m]>
Well battery life is important for me, since my main reason to buy it was bringing it to places with me
* bonfire_
nods
<hpag[m]>
While it would be cool to have full blown linux on it, I guess the linux container works too
<bonfire_>
well that's the point of PMOS :)
<jenneron[m]>
<bonfire_> "I get probably 1.5-2 hrs per..." <- it shouldn't do that even in suspend
<jenneron[m]>
<bonfire_> "i'll see how this cpupower..." <- i bet on hardware issue, but also may be kernel bug
