<DC-IRC> [Discord] <amazingfate> This patches is applied to 6.1.119, so the bsp kernel doesn't have it: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/log/drivers/mmc/host/dw_mmc.c?h=v6.1.119
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <przmos> @mecoblock Rockchip is aware, I can confirm that added it after rkr5.1
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <amazingfate> if rockchip is just rebasing with kernel after version 6.1.119, this commit should also get applied
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <przmos> that added that commit specifically
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <przmos> don't think they are rebasing, they added that commit specifically
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <przmos> not sure if they are going to rebase any further. I do know they are working on 6.12
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> 6.15rc1 has support for the rk3588 right?
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <fbernier> yes
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> But not sure how to get that kernel on armbian yet
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <fbernier> you need to switch to edge releases
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <fbernier> this was just merged btw: https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/8234 so 6.15 final will soon be in edge builds

<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> on the armbian sources?
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> on the armbian sources? Sorry I just got my op5 ultra, so I have not gotten that familiar with debian, been a long time arch user, and didn't have to update this and test source
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <obi.wahn> Will full support be achieved in kernel 6.15, or what limitations will there still be?
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <obi.wahn> Thanks! 👍🏼
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> What does HDMI in fall under? HDMI second port ?
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> Oh further down the list, there is HDMI input
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <fbernier> on the beta package repository (https://apt.armbian.com/beta/). You would need to switch to edge release using `armbian-config` in order for `apt-get` to fetch from the beta repos.
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> Ah okay let me see, since my armbian-config , says "switch to stable" as the option right now, but I do not see any edge kernels from apt
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <obi.wahn> I am pleased that the linux kernel for rk3588 is being actively developed. I have just bought a NanoPi M6 and was afraid that I would only have the images from the manufacturer.
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <random_anon_cesar> I totally agree. For my needs, everything runs really well. A "nice to have" would be libmali drivers included by default for vulkan instead of panthor.
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <fbernier> that sounds like the "Updates" menu of armbian-config under `System`. I'm referring to the `Kernel` menu. You could also install `linux-image-edge-rockchip64` and `linux-dtb-edge-rockchip64` manually I believe.
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> kernel menu shows no other kernels , So system -> kernels -> alternative kernels -> Show only mainstream (NO) -> No other kernels available,
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> I do not have any -edge- kernels when I search in apt either
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <nanofabricated> Armbian isn't recognizing my wifi card/device
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> well switching to stable and back to rolling was a bad idea :D, it removed the vendor kernel and could not install it again. So I can't reboot 😭 , well not much on here I can just reload
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> switching kernels isn't always trouble-free. There is a warning in place I think. Also in rare cases vendor uboot doesn't work with mainline kernel and vice versa.
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> I switched to the normal rockchip u-boot that works just fine, but I was trying to switch to edge or get that apt shows me the edge kernels
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> Installing an u-boot package via apt does not actually write the boot loader since this is rarely necessary to do so. It just adds the binaries so this can be done manually or via armbian-config
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> Oh really? But the vendor u-boot was removed.
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> Does the bootload go into that spi flash or just the boot sector of the drive
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> As mentioned, only the files necessary to rewrite the boot loader are added/removed with changing apt packages. To actually write them to the boot sector of spi/emmc/sd/whatever, this needs to be done manually
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> aah okay now I see how this works. so my armbian.sources does point to beta.armbian.com, so not sure what I am doing wrong, that I do no see any edge kernels available
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> Maybe there aren't any beta edge kernels available at this time
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> That could be, unless it has to do with the sources listing bookworm, instead of sid or trixie ?
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> Should not be the case. kernels are all the same for any userspace
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <fbernier> yeah something changed:
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <fbernier> ```
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <fbernier> fbernier@orangepi5-max ~> sudo apt-get download --print-uris linux-image-edge-rockchip64
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <fbernier> E: Can't find a source to download version '25.8.0-trunk.53' of 'linux-image-edge-rockchip64:arm64'
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <fbernier> ```
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <random_anon_cesar> What happens if you set armbian-config to use the stable channel for package updates? I’ve noticed switching between stable & rolling in armbian config also changes the URLs searched when using apt
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <igorpec> repo assembly didn't finished correctly
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <igorpec> but before being able re-generate repo and check what is wrong, this job needs to be green https://github.com/armbian/os/actions/workflows/complete-artifact-matrix-all.yml
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <igorpec> there is one rockchip64 current patch failing ATM. I am looking at PR's what can be merged ...
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <fbernier> thanks, that's useful to know
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <fbernier> maybe this should be considered: https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/7455#issuecomment-2505397070
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> I'm preparing a set of edge kernel packages for the opi5 ultra, based on mainline rather than integration rc1 branch. Whoever can feel free to test. I'll provide a link as soon as they're ready
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <fbernier> out of curiosity, would the opi5 max benefit from any of this work ?
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> I can test
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <igorpec> probably dropping is the best. and then move to 6.14 and voila?
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <igorpec> probably dropping is the best. and / or move to 6.14 and voila?
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> current should stay on LTS IMHO. We have edge as playground for desktop stuff
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> I think the packages should work for the 5max as well. Boards are very similar and dt for it is mainlined too
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> can I just grab the deb files and install with dpkg or should I alter the armbian.sources to point to this mirror
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> Just grab em and install via dpkg. If you have an edge kernel already installed it should replace it. If not, my guess is, there will be both kernel installed but the symlink in /boot to Image should handle it. NO warranty though
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> You probably don't need headers and libc. dtb and image is enough
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> I have my usb cable ready to reflash, I think my system is broken eitherway, so this can't be any worse 🤣
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> I've put a minimal image there too
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> Once confirmed working (or not) leave a comment here: https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/8252
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> okay hope I setup my u-boot correct
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> It boots !
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> feel free to share armbianmonitor -u
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> https://paste.armbian.com/riqajomiya
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> Just a double-check. `uname -a`shows edge kernel running, right?
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> "uname -a
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> Linux orangepi5-max 6.15.0-edge-rockchip64 #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun May 25 23:09:23 UTC 2025 aarch64 GNU/Linux"
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> should it say max? I know I was on the vendor image
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> iperf is definitely running better on this kernel
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> If you look at line 8304 of your provided paste output the kernel also started with Max instead of Ultra. Maybe uboot already picked up the wrong dt. Not sure
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> But nevertheless the kernel boots
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> If probably try with clean emmc/spi, write the minimal image to a fresh sd and boot from that and see what happens
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> I'd probably try with clean emmc/spi, write the minimal image to a fresh sd and boot from that and see what happens
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> Could it be some confusion since I installed the armbian for the max ?
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> Yes, this can also have caused that
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> I need to fix my armbianEnv
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <fbernier> So do you think we should go ahead and remove it? If so, do you want me to do it ?
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> automated build target list needs to be adjusted the same time or beforehand to prevent generation of (broken) desktop images
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <igorpec> i usually fix it if its trivical, doesn't consume much time, if complex, its disabled.
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <igorpec> we remove this in a bulk eventually
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <igorpec> i usually fix it if fixing patch is trivial, doesn't consume much time, if complex, its disabled.
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> @werner , this looks a bit better https://paste.armbian.com/xacoxadupa
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> indeed
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> Shall I link that paste, to the github, PR in my comment
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> yes, this will confirm working
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> This is awesome though, I was worried it's going to take a long time before I could use a 6.15 kernel with the ultra.
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> Done
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> thx
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> No thank you 👍 , you can ping me if you need a tester on this board
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> No thank you 👍 , you can ping me if you need a tester on this board. I am good and breaking stuff, and attract weird issues
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> Then you are the perfect candidate to become maintainer for this board 😄
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> Haha that is still a bit far off, I don't even know how the dtb or anything works :p
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> You don't necessarily have to. Having a person available that has access to hw and can test things frequently and mention if something breaks is already valuable.
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> Okay let me have a read
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> Nice. I'll have a nap. l8r
