Description This PR follows the discussion of the previous PR about introducing LibreELEC patches into rockchip64 family patch tree. There is no Jira reference number yet, since this is yet a proposal. If there is general consensus, a ticket will be opened and linked here. As like as @AdamLantos did, I first let LibreELEC patches apply and then armbian ones, so if an armbian patch clashes, I remove it and keep the libreelec variant. This is so because LibreELEC patches usually are already queued for being upstreamed into mainline kernel and then downloaded from https://patchwork.kernel.org This time, following the requests coming from the previous PR, LibreELEC patches…

Description Add aya odin2 config,Most functions can be used now, but the amplifier driver is missing, so the speaker cannot be used. The headphone jack can barely be used, but there are quality issues with the sound. Currently, only Bluetooth is used to connect the speaker or headphones to play music During installation, the latest Mesa will be compiled to ensure that the GPU driver can be used properly, as Mesa lacks Open GL support and can only use Zink to provide hardware acceleration for the desktop. However, this can lead to some issues Jira reference number [AR-9999] How Has This Been Tested? Please describe the tests that you ran to verify your changes. Please a…

The new "Hello World" module should help people understand the minimum requirements. Note that these requirements will still change over time, given that the architecture is still in alpha stage. That said, having an overview module should help attracting developers more quickly than a lengthy documentation. On the docker side, the dependencies have been slightly improved, but that's actually a part of the architecture I'll have to revise, since one "DEPS" file is not enough for all the various ubuntu and debian versions. I still wonder if I'm going to mimic the 'config/...' folder architecture used for the installer, or if I'll try to shorten it with things like DEPS…

As we approach our next point release, the focus shifts entirely towards bug fixing and stabilization. Feature development is on hold this month to ensure that core functionalities like network connectivity, video output, and booting processes are solid. We aim to resolve as many issues as possible during this period. However, we encourage users to report any recognized problems here so that they can be addressed in future updates. Target for next release We are targeting kernel v6.6 for our current builds and v6.10 for edge builds, while vendor kernels will remain at their latest versions—6.1.y for Rockchip 3588 and 5.15.y for Meson64 legacy. Video acceleration for Rock…

With Smart Home products connecting to the cloud, if a company decides to end support for a product or is required to close due to final troubles, there are few courses of action. The easiest one is to give up, and switch to another brand, or promise yourself you’ll never use one of those “Internet of Shit” products. The second one is quite more time-consuming and you’d have to work with the community to reverse-engineering the product and give it a second life, but obviously, this does not solve the supply issue since the product will not be manufactured anymore. Today, I learn about a third one: simply gather a small group of users, and buy the company! That’s basically…

There are already several serial terminal programs such as Putty and minicom, and in recent times, I’ve been using Bootterm myself. But that does not mean there’s room for more and Martin Lund has developed tio serial device I/O tool for Linux.

Revopoint MINI is a 3D scanner using high-resolution blue light that’s designed for smaller objects such as figurines, coins, jewelry, etc… that require a higher level of detail achievable thanks to the promised 0.02mm precision. The 3D scanner follows last year’s Revopoint POP 2 color 3D scanner with 0.1mm accuracy for larger objects, and the main differences are the lack of color scanning and the higher resolution most suitable for smaller objects, but also possible for larger objects while holding the scanner with one hand. It would just take longer since the MINI’s single capture range is 118 x 64mm, instead of 210 x 130mm for the POP 2. Revopoint MINI specifications…
