freemangordonarno11: wtym codecs fail?07:14
arno11freemangordon: i mean, it tries different codecs but they all fail10:14
arno11(same as few weeks ago)10:16
arno11weird stuff: vcm tries some video codecs10:18
arno11ttyl (travelling)10:21
uvosWizzup: see leste-ci channel (not sure if you have that muted)15:16
inkyfolks what did you do that pinephone keyboard works? i have enabled the kernel module. what else?17:31
siceloxkeyboard configuration maybe?17:33
siceloit would also depend on what "works" means in your message17:34
inkyi dont have x yet, but in plain console it should work i guess.17:34
inkywell i press keys and nothing happens. but when i press keys on usb keyboard i can type.17:34
inkythe issue is not in maemo, but in my gentoo i have assembled and i am running on the pinephone.17:34
inkyi got everything working so far. this is my dmesg: https://bpa.st/JUYT617:35
inkyi have wifi. building xorg. that hopefully will work too. but pinephone keyboard doesnt work. its driver is enabled, the kernel module loaded.17:36
inkymy understanding is that it does not depend on any firmware. my kernel config is based on maemo kernel config.17:36
inkyso i guess everything necessary like i2c and gpio related is enabled.17:37
inkybut my kernel is 6.10.717:37
Wizzupwe don't use plain kernel, we use some pinephone with patches kernel17:39
inkyoh, is there a pinephone kernel? i didn't know.17:41
inkyi thought everything is in mainline already.17:41
sicelopinephone? hardly :-)17:42
sicelothere's a reason why Mobian almost dropped support for it17:42
gnarfacethe A64 bare boards the pinephones are based on, (the earlier versions, not the LTS) afaik have everything in mainline. but not the phones yet17:43
inkyi think it should work, because the keyboard driver is in the mainline. i enabled it.17:44
inkyi think i forgot something like gpio or i2c or something.17:44
inkyoh, question!17:44
inkyin boot.scr of postmarketos i see:17:44
inkyin the beginning they do: gpio set 98 and gpio set 11417:44
inkyafter loading the kernel they do gpio set 11517:45
inkyand before booting they do gpio set 116 and gpio clear 9817:45
inkydoes maemo do something like that?17:46
WizzupI think that has to do with the modem17:46
Wizzupbut I don't remember for sure17:46
Wizzupyou can check our boot.scr I guess17:46
inkyoh i jost looked at it. no gpio stuff.17:47
inkybut keyboard works.17:47
sicelodtb is correct?17:49
siceloanyway, have a look at https://xnux.eu/pinephone-keyboard/faq.html#ts17:49
inkygood question, i assumed dtb has keyboard.17:50
gnarfaceoh, that's a good call, i bet it doesn't17:55
gnarfacenot directly related, but i did have to patch the dtb for my A64 "pine64+" boards to get the SDIO wifi modules working, i'd briefly forgotten that17:57
gnarfacemakes sense the pogo-pin-keyboard might be missing from there too, since that's also basically a one-off feature only on these devices17:57
gnarface(the reason why the rest of the A64 support is so well mainlined is because the rest of the board shares a lot of very common features with other vendors' products)17:58
inkymy wifi works well with rtw88.18:07
inkyand yesterday someone asked me to test the device tree patch for pinephone. and it seems it worked:18:08
inkyhttps://lore.kernel.org/linux-sunxi/20240904004615.15ccf4ec1d764c5a163ebc13@arnet.am/18:08
inkymegi site refers to git clone --depth=1 -b orange-pi-5.16 https://github.com/megous/linux18:13
inkybut that repo is not accessible publicly or does not exist.18:13
inkymaybe this one: https://megous.com/git/linux/18:15
siceloyou don't need their entire kernel18:15
siceloas Wizzup said, you can focus on the  leste kernel18:15
inkyi didn't understand that, i understood he said maemo uses pinephone kernel, not mainline.18:39
inkywill try to build this one https://codeberg.org/megi/linux/commits/branch/ppkb-6.1018:43
uvosinky: we use a kernel based on the mobian one19:09
uvosthe sources for the leste kernel are here: https://github.com/maemo-leste/pine64-kernel/tree/mobian-6.119:09
uvoshowever as we do not have anyone who regularly maintains the pp kernel its quite old and maybe you can find a better kernel elsewhere - i cant tell you how mutch progress has been made since rafael2k last updated it19:10
inkyunderstand.20:41
siceloinky: you can be the new maintainer ;-)21:34
inkyhehe. maybe. (:21:55
inkyi am building that ppkb-6.10 branch from megi, but on my gentoo, lets see.21:55
