<sphalerite> samueldr: I just got a somewhat promising result with the hs400 SD controller thing!
<sphalerite> samueldr: repeatedly unbinding and binding the driver to the device seems to make it work eventually
<sphalerite> in this case, the driver is sdhci-arasan and the device is fe330000.sdhci
<samueldr> fe33**, speaks to me like an rk3399 device :)
<samueldr> though I've seen people on the pine64 irc say that hs400 is not supported on pine device
<samueldr> pine devices*
<samueldr> so, rockpro, pbp
<samueldr> because of a miswired pin?
<samueldr> (that made no sense to me, but I can believe it )
<samueldr> I would link to discussions
<samueldr> but their logger infra is buggy af
<sphalerite> samueldr: yes, rk3399, gru. bob :)
<samueldr> great, those I'm pretty sure should work fine with hs400, considering the downstream oem kernels do
<samueldr> (google's)
<sphalerite> yeah, it fails often though
<samueldr> on mine it just never works with the upstream kernel
<sphalerite> maybe you haven't tried enough yet ;p
<samueldr> now that mobile-nixos auto-reboots when it fails, I could leave it try a bunch of times
<sphalerite> that sounds like a good idea

<pbb> upgrading a freshly installed packet.net host to 19.09 failed
<clever> pbb: add boot.shell_on_fail to the kernel args somehow (rescue env? repeat with a new configuration.nix?) and then on line 38 of the gist, youll have a new option to get a shell in the initrd
<pbb> yeah I know
<pbb> but it costs time and the server costs money
<clever> yeah
<pbb> now reinstalled 19.03 and will just stick to that
<pbb> what a pity they don't support 19.09 installations yet
<pbb> it would also be great to speed up installs by doing kexec of the new installation instead of rebooting
<pbb> those servers take a long time to init
<pbb> it looks like gchristensen has built something which should work better for my use case: https://github.com/grahamc/packet-nix-builder
<clever> pbb: there is `systemctl kexec` which i think will boot the "current" kernel (changed by nixos-rebuild switch or nixops deploy)

<gchristensen> pbb: supporting 19.09 is on my to-do list for the next week or 2
<pbb> Great
<gchristensen> at the same time time I'll be adding support for CPR (https://support.packet.com/kb/articles/custom-partitioning-raid) and quite likely ZFS

<thefloweringash> for ubootTools, nix uses `allnoconfig`, arch (community) uses `defconfig`, and debian uses `tools-only_defconfig`. anyone happen to know which of this is "correct" ?
<thefloweringash> Context: looking for a `mkimage` that doesn't say `uboot-allnoconfig-2019.10/bin/mkimage: unsupported type Flat Device Tree`
wrl_ has quit [Quit: leaving]
<thefloweringash> Made a PR for it: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/74054
<{^_^}> #74054 (by thefloweringash, 26 seconds ago, open): ubootTools: use tools-only_defconfig instead of allnoconfig
zupo has quit [Quit: My MacBook has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…]
exarkun_ is now known as exarkun
<samueldr> thefloweringash: tools-only was added 2018-12-07 :)
<samueldr> ubootTools in nixpkgs was introduced 2015-11-03! :)
<thefloweringash> oh I see, and before that debian did something very similar to what nixpkgs does now
<thefloweringash> that's the context I was missing, thanks!
<samueldr> didn't know beforehand
<samueldr> but had a suspicion
<samueldr> the current builder kind of u-boot was written in 2015
<samueldr> Tianocore for Raspberry Pi 4 is getting more useful
<sphalerite> thefloweringash: hah, I ran into that too and was going to fix it too! Except not as neatly as that.
<sphalerite> (because I didn't realise there was a defconfig for that, I only enabled FIT support for my coreboot build)

<samueldr> anyone has experience with Lima (on Allwinner A64) and NixOS?
<samueldr> my X11 is weirdly broken
<samueldr> with the modesetting drm lima driver (AFAICT)
<samueldr> for exploratory purposes I'll build with CONFIG_DRM_LIMA to n, see what it changes

<samueldr> while waiting I thought I'd validate that it was limited to modesetting; indeed, fbdev does work
<samueldr> "broken", here, is i3lock doesn't show anything except the background colour
<samueldr> awesome can't draw, anything, but the i3lock background colour is kept where the bar is
<samueldr> cursor is working, apps *are* starting, but not drawing
* samueldr tries a compositing manager
zupo has quit [Quit: My MacBook has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…]
<samueldr> nope
zupo has joined #nixos-aarch64
<samueldr> unsurprisingly(?) DRM_LIMA=n it works
<samueldr> I'll have to test on the pinephone monday, forcing modesetting rather than fbdev
<samueldr> (using fbdev since I'm re-using the same image as on android)
