(weirdly enough, the acer one isn't listed :/)
<sphalerite>
argh… it isn't fully working yet after all
<sphalerite>
it tries to init the display before booting linux >_<
<samueldr>
sphalerite: raspberry pi or mainline on bob?
<sphalerite>
raspi
<samueldr>
:/
<samueldr>
weird though, the 3B can boot fine without display attached
<sphalerite>
mainline on bob is for another day
<sphalerite>
I tried updating to u-boot 2019.07 as well, but it's no better
<samueldr>
I'm thinking that even after... about an hour "downloading", it is going to be faster to build the image with xorg on the builder, download it, flash it to another sd card than wait on that trashy one
<sphalerite>
heh
<sphalerite>
clever: maybe you know things about this?
<samueldr>
if it all works out, I'll end up replacing the OS on the internal storage
<sphalerite>
samueldr: fwiw I'm happily using nixos-on-internal-storage on mine :)

and upstream u-boot supports bob now? I might need to try that…
<samueldr>
hmm, if there's u-boot it would be even better
<samueldr>
but even then, just having nixos will be fine
<sphalerite>
yeah I'm a bit scared of breaking it if I flash the firmware though
<sphalerite>
but I have that suzyqable thing, so I think I can do it safely?
<samueldr>
AFAIUI yeah
<samueldr>
there's only one thing I'm not 100% sure
<samueldr>
>> cr50 - a special security chip asserts the WP signal. While a battery is present on the device, the WP signal will be asserted. Disassembling the device and physically disconnecting the battery causes WP to be deasserted.
<samueldr>
I'm thinking that cases of extreme battery exhaustion could also deassert cr50
<samueldr>
so maybe don't flash firmwares at 0% battery
<samueldr>
oh duh, wrong interpretation
<samueldr>
and wrong bit
<samueldr>
that would be how to assert it from outside chromeos
<samueldr>
hm, I can't find the thing that made me a bit concerned
<samueldr>
(but basically harmless if it happens)
<samueldr>
>> The open state will be lost after cr50 reboot
<samueldr>
maybe it was that

great! the stylus also works :)

<sphalerite>
hm, the person who was porting u-boot to gru-kevin actually uses coreboot -> petitboot instead now
<samueldr>
link to more info?

hm, I was thinking "coreboot on nixos is a miss because of agda"
<samueldr>
but that's for intel framebuffer magic
* samueldr
is thinking
<samueldr>
I do wonder if tianocore would work
<samueldr>
hmm, though for nixos the grub payload is likely a fine option too
