19:14 <gchristensen> 256 core ARM machine lol

19:14 <samrose> samueldr: fwiw this graph seems to confirm what you've discussed with me in the past: 4.17 supports simplefb, 4.20 supports HDMI video

19:14 <samrose> gchristensen: wow

19:15 <samueldr> samrose: which graph?

19:17 <samrose> samueldr: oops http://linux-sunxi.org/Linux_mainlining_effort#Status_Matrix

19:18 <samueldr> though I have no idea what simplefb is or should have been used :/

19:18 <samueldr> but yeah, here hdmi works splendidly with 4.20

19:19 <samueldr> though ethernet has issues still (which is still unknown why, haven't progressed / look at it)

19:20 <gchristensen> ok, I requested Packet get a few of those boxes for NixOS of course

19:20 <samueldr> :o

19:20 <gchristensen> not that I really have any influence on them, lol, but in case they do have some, I'd levo sem

19:20 <gchristensen> I'd love some*

19:20 <samrose> I'll let you know if I see the same thing on bpim64 I am copying image to device now, and will try test kernel approach once copy is done

19:21 <samrose> gchristensen: I do know one person who works at packet

19:21 <gchristensen> oh?

19:21 <gchristensen> who do you know?

19:21 <samrose> gchristensen: https://twitter.com/vielmetti

19:21 <gchristensen> ah! Ed!

19:21 <gchristensen> how do you know Ed?

19:22 <samrose> He's the *only* person I know :) but I've known him for a number of years. A great guy

19:22 <samrose> I live nearby the town Ed lives in, and used to participate in events that he was involved ijn

19:22 <gchristensen> awesome

19:22 <samrose> (wiki sites and local politics stuff etc)

19:22 <gchristensen> he's made me sort of think about getting back in to HAM, but I don't have that budget atm

19:22 <gchristensen> (time or money, heh)

19:23 <samrose> hehe yes he has small armies of people in Ann Arbor, MI getting into HAM

19:23 <samrose> sounds like fun

19:23 <samrose> apparently there's a little handheld device you can get (although kinda pricey)

19:24 <gchristensen> aye

19:25 <samrose> Apprently Ed started one of the first commercial ISP up in the UP of Michigan long ago
