[08:30:32] <M6piz7wk[m]> How is the software coverage for TERES-1? I need Notebook for school so preferably if TERES-1 has functioning OS
[08:32:50] <M6piz7wk[m]> seems to run an old ubuntu?
[08:32:58] <M6piz7wk[m]> https://github.com/OLIMEX/DIY-LAPTOP/blob/rel3/SOFTWARE/A64-TERES/scripts/README.md
[08:33:02] <M6piz7wk[m]> like very old
[08:34:49] <bill-auger> M6piz7wk[m]: it will run any OS that supports aarch64
[08:35:28] <M6piz7wk[m]> Is there any linux distro that has like image for it that works ootb?
[08:36:04] <M6piz7wk[m]> bcs like i plan on making a GNU Guix image for it, but i would prefer to have a working system to figure out how to design the guix one and use it for school in the meanwhile
[08:41:34] <mps> M6piz7wk[m]: I have alpine linux running on teres-i and wrote small guide about it https://arvanta.net/alpine/alpine-on-olimex/
[08:43:45] <M6piz7wk[m]> perfect thanks
[08:45:17] <bill-auger> the newest image from olimex was a few months ago https://images.olimex.com/release/a64/
[08:46:23] <M6piz7wk[m]> That's for OlinuXino-A64 though? The notebook seems to have more things connected to it's interface that seems to need drivers and stuff?
[08:47:19] <mps> M6piz7wk[m]: I run same kernel on teres-i and olinuxino-a64
[08:47:30] <M6piz7wk[m]> i see O.o
[08:47:58] <mps> though I didn't updated it in last month or two
[08:48:58] <mps> everything works fine except DPMS but I didn't found time to find problem
[08:49:51] <M6piz7wk[m]> boots into a desktop environment with working mouse, keyboard and wifi works for me.. i can fix everything else in guix after
[08:50:21] <mps> yes, boots fine and works
[08:50:38] <M6piz7wk[m]> perfect
[08:51:11] <mps> I can post later my kernel config if you want it to look at
[08:51:32] <M6piz7wk[m]> would help, thanks
[08:51:42] <M6piz7wk[m]> do you add any patches to the kernel beyond those in the repo?
[08:51:48] <mps> will do when I come back to home
[08:52:00] <M6piz7wk[m]> oke
[08:52:46] <mps> I have only my local patch to fix mmc cards order
[08:53:26] <M6piz7wk[m]> did you notice any like hardware issues on it? e.g. coil whine, etc..?
[08:54:12] <mps> I don't but I don't use teres-i too much
[08:54:49] <mps> I bought it just to learn A64 and play with it, not for real use
[08:55:24] <mps> but I think it could be usable
[08:57:27] <M6piz7wk[m]> i see O.o
[11:54:38] <braunr> hello
[11:54:58] <braunr> i'm using an olimex arm tiny high-speed probe
[11:55:02] <braunr> with its ftdi driver
[11:55:21] <braunr> it does the job but i'd like to use the internal itm feature of my stm32f7 mcu
[11:55:35] <braunr> and it seems i need to use swd, not jtag for this
[11:55:53] <braunr> is this possible at all or am i wasting my time ? i can't find clear enough answers :/
[16:33:34] <mps> M6piz7wk[m]: here is my kernel config http://ix.io/4anD
[16:34:34] <mps> and my guide is outdated somehow, latest stable u-boot 2022.07 works fine, bug is fixed in it
[21:07:57] <M6piz7wk[m]> <mps> "6piz7wk: here is my kernel..." <- thanks!
[21:13:13] <mps> M6piz7wk[m]: np. If you find that something should be changed and/or fixed please inform me
[21:31:44] <M6piz7wk[m]> oke
