sicelopictures from yesterday's work :-)09:05
Wizzupcool!09:08
siceloeverything in /dev/dri/* has root:video ownership09:10
dsc_nice09:11
Wizzup(bedtime here :))09:11
siceloheh, you travel a lot. last we talked we were almost in same TZ09:12
Wizzupmust have been ~1.5 weeks ago09:12
WizzupI hadn't travelled for 4-5 months iirc :)09:12
sicelofreemangordon: btw, why did we have to remove xserver-xorg-legacy? i see we have a conflict for it against h-d. i'm just doing some reading and it appears that its Xwrapper stuff might be needed to get around the rootless X11 issue i'm facing10:38
sicelohttps://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=601910:38
siceloi'd appreciate any help/suggestions for troubleshooting. we've established that running X as root starts hildon just fine.10:44
sicelo(oh btw, for some reason it's not using 3D accel yet ... but i can look at that properly later)10:45
sicelomaybe the autologin stuff is not working properly in my setup? the previous screenshots were from booting to recovery mode, then running startx11:11
siceloas root, that is11:12
sicelonow, in recovery, i did11:12
sicelologin, entered user and its password. then startx. there's no x11 error this time11:12
siceloi now see "Cannot run in framebuffer mode. Please specify busIDs        for all framebuffer devices"11:51
gnarfacehmm, try specifying the busID in xorg.conf?12:05
gnarfaceprobably a red herring, but maybe worth a try12:06
gnarfaceto get a different error12:06
sicelohttps://paste.debian.net/1311380/12:08
sicelowhat is busID? and i've removed the xorg.conf that i had12:08
gnarfacei think xorg.conf calls it PCIID or something like that12:09
gnarfacei'd have to review the docs12:09
gnarfaceit's basically the bus address of the video card you want to use12:09
gnarfaceit's usually not ambiguous, but sometimes if you have more than one it needs you to be explicit12:09
gnarfacecuriously, this warning, which i've never seen before, seems to hint that might be related: (WW) VGA arbiter: cannot open kernel arbiter, no multi-card support12:10
gnarfaceyou have a phone with two video cards???12:10
sicelomay I ask: do you use Maemo Leste?12:11
gnarfacesorry, no but i use devuan12:11
gnarfacei just felt sorry because everyone was asleep so i answered even though i don't know anything about hildon12:11
sicelook. yes, the L5 shows card0 and card1. the same is true for the omap devices (N900, Droid4, etc.)12:12
gnarfacei have dealt with the suid xorg -> user mode xorg transition on other hardware though12:12
gnarfacein general i've got a lot of xorg experience12:12
gnarfaceah, i see, interesting12:12
gnarfaceyea, i'd say force it to the other12:12
gnarfaceyou don't need a whole xorg.conf anymore, you just need to specify the sections you want to change from default/autodetect12:12
gnarfaceman page lists it12:13
gnarface BusID  "bus-id"12:13
gnarfacesearch for this on there12:13
gnarfaceyou might be able to get away with just a Device section12:13
sicelommm, https://community.toradex.com/t/graphics-accelerated-x11-application-on-i-mx8-based-som/18027/515:04
buZzjust added that sebastian to 'allowed senders list' , seemingly some patches went to our ML, or discussions about it15:52
Wizzupyeah we do get patches16:06
Wizzupsicelo: mobian is accelerated yeah?16:07
siceloyes. wayland of course16:07
Wizzupright, but I wouldn't think that would matter16:08
WizzupI mean it's possible it doesn't work, but I kind of assume ought to16:09
sicelowill see later on. just need to get the desktop working16:54
Wizzupyou could get it working without accel for now right?17:01
siceloyes, that's my plan. the cpu is beefy enough17:05
siceloso far i just can't make progress with that permissions issue though17:06
siceloanyway, i think in the meantime, whenever you find a chance, please create a linux-librem5 repo on github17:07
sicelowe'll mostly be tracking https://salsa.debian.org/Mobian-team/devices/kernels/librem5-linux/-/tree/mobian-6.6/17:08
sicelobut will make some adjustments to the config, since we don't have an initramfs, thus some drivers need to be builtin17:11
WizzupI'll make the repo now.17:23
WizzupI'm wondering if we need to consider making a small initramfs if it would make our lives that much easier17:23
Wizzupsicelo: done and added you as a maintainer17:26
Wizzuphad to use maemo otp to do it ;D17:26
sicelo😀18:23
