that is, the internal display works, I think by nature of disabling the DP-out, so...

<samueldr>
to be clearer, I'm trying to boot using UEFI, and grub2
<samueldr>
I tried using the binary .dtb from the kernel build, and using U-Boot's own FDT (which AFAICT should be equivalent in what matters here)
<samueldr>
and they indeed act in equivalent manners
<samueldr>
in both cases, with cdn_dp disabled, rockchipdrm loads, the display information is found under /sys/class/drm (1920x1080)
<samueldr>
but the display stays blank
zupo has quit [Quit: My MacBook has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…]
<samueldr>
the backlight is active
<samueldr>
rmmod rockchipdrm makes the display turn off (backlight goes off)
<samueldr>
modprobe rockchipdrm turns it back on

Mindavi: The Phosh-related bits I have are the same as the ones in my PR, I use them as part of a NixOps-ish config (colmena)

samueldr: idk, whatever latest is, I haven't tried 5.12 that just came out
<colemickens>
I'm booting her up right now, will update, can test anything if it would help.
<samueldr>
colemickens: graphics-enabled u-boot?
<colemickens>
samueldr: I don't think so, haven't pulled anything in for that, and the display is black until partway through the kernel bootup
<samueldr>
right, so no
<colemickens>
I sure could pull something and fire it off though, lmk if you want, happy to try
<samueldr>
though I assume it must work since arnaud (author of said graphics u-boot patches) implies it does
<samueldr>
colemickens: build u-boot 2021.04 from my PR for PBP
<samueldr>
it's upstream IIRC
<colemickens>
I keep u-boot on SD card too, so in theory I could grab a new one to test with "safely".
<colemickens>
okay, i'll do that
<samueldr>
yes it's upstream, "in .04" IIRC
<samueldr>
great, ideally you'd boot your existing system
<samueldr>
my 5.7~ish kernel builds do boot with graphics, but that's extlinux
<samueldr>
so I have too many variables conflicting :)
<samueldr>
currently resorted to testing kernel upgrades on my PBP mobile nixos branch
<samueldr>
to reduce variables
<samueldr>
great, 5.11 works
<samueldr>
finally success
<samueldr>
(somewhat)
<samueldr>
with an older set of the PBP graphics enablement patches though
<samueldr>
but still some success!
<samueldr>
also some weirdness with regards to poweroff
<samueldr>
and just ran that somewhat succesful build on that newer u-boot (but not through UEFI)
<samueldr>
display works
<colemickens>
lmk if you still need me to test a scenario, otherwise I'll do pinephone stuff instead
<samueldr>
do pinephone stuff unless you have a UEFI setup :)
<samueldr>
I spent the whole day yesterday without a successful build
<samueldr>
(doing other non-dev things during the day)
<samueldr>
it's refreshing to have something working to compare against

I feel like your feedback for the phosh PR applies to the plasma-mobile pr, but maybe that's planned - it is still a draft
<samueldr>
colemickens: hm? strictly speaking about the display manager option, it is for plasma-mobile
<samueldr>
or am I missing something else?
<colemickens>
it just feels like a lot of "doing" for an example config
<colemickens>
all of the plasma mobile init scripts
<samueldr>
right, those should go elsewhere, but are not topic for Nixpkgs
<samueldr>
they're about customizing the first boot experience
<samueldr>
but really I guess it's not customizable by design on their end :(
<samueldr>
I was trying to make it as tightly-controlled as the other demo system
<colemickens>
they just look like DE setup?
<colemickens>
or are you saying that without them, a default config would still work?
<samueldr>
yes
<colemickens>
okay, I see.
<samueldr>
the first three "scripts" all manage the wallpaper
<samueldr>
as a default option
<samueldr>
well, all of the `let in` except for the default username
* colemickens
nods
<samueldr>
I was debating about just dropping all of it beause it's fickle and breaks
<colemickens>
ah :)
<samueldr>
but I'm also thinking that what breaks will, in the end, break end-user settings!!
<samueldr>
after a couple of DE loads, I don't know the details, the wallpaper reverts to the default
<samueldr>
default from Plasma Mobile
<samueldr>
so that's a bit unsettling to see what should be a user-preference reset!
<colemickens>
:/ sounds like the kind of think that could take a very long time to track down if you fell down that hole
zupo has quit [Quit: My MacBook has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…]
<samueldr>
read the comments
<samueldr>
that was the hole I fell into trying to "just" set an initial setting
<samueldr>
the wallpaper is set as a first run thing
<colemickens>
I'm laughing at the numeric PW bit right now
<samueldr>
WELL
<samueldr>
so if you pre-seed the home with a pre-configured "registry" of configs with the wallpaper configured
<samueldr>
it'll end up overwritten
<samueldr>
since they use basically the same mechanism I'm forced to run *after* theirs

and 5.12 works too, whew, now I have to figure out what's the big underlying issue, that won't be fun... but I at least now know things *can* work
