rtw88_8821cu takes priority over the github driver, so this shouldn't effect other units or usb dongles people use. My reasoning is; The rtw88 driver for reasons yet unknown seems to trigger usb fails more often than the github driver. If a fail occurs it will introduce dmesg spam and upon reboot leave the onboard wireless module undetectable.

A typical chip for AI or ML inference would include an NPU, a DSP, a real-time CPU, plus some memory, an application processor, an ISP, and a few more IP blocks. Quadric Chimera GPNPU (general purpose neural processor unit) IP combines the NPU, DSP, and real-time CPU into one single programmable core. According to Quadric, the main benefit of such design is simplifying system-on-chip (SoC) hardware design and subsequent software programming once the chip is available thanks to a unified architecture for machine learning inference as well as pre-and-post processing. Since the core is programmable it should also be future-proof. Three “QB series” Chimera GPNPU cores are ava…

I’ve just repurposed an empty XYLITOL gum bottle into a DIY camera mount for the Raspberry Pi Camera Module with privacy mode to boot… In order to avoid confusion, while Xylitol is a chemical compound, it’s also a Japanese brand of chewing gums that is sold in Thailand and other countries. I’m specifically talking about the latter in this post. Raspberry Pi Trading has just sent me a bunch of Raspberry Pi Camera Modules 3 for review, and since I don’t have any camera mount I initially thought maybe I’ll laser cut some mount or use some LEGOs as I did with the e-CAM20_CURB camera for Raspberry Pi 4. But then I saw some empty XYLITOL gum bottles, noticed the cap would open …

I don’t think I’ve ever written about open-source hardware headphones. But that’s precisely what Ploopy offers with an amplifier based on a Raspberry Pi RP2040, a Texas Instruments PCM3060 24-bit DAC, and an amplifier circuit, as well as 3D printed parts and open-source firmware written in C. As we’ll see further below the project is reasonably well documented, and you can either build it from scratch, purchase a fully-assembled kit, or something in the middle. I suppose you could even do some knitting since woven covers are part of the build just in case making your own PCBs and 3D printing parts are not your things. The electronics are comprised of two boards: The Gould…

Description This PR makes two changes for the bcm2711 family: Use FS UUID for mounting the root filesystem instead of the FS label, bringing this family in line with most other boards.

We’ve already written about the UP 4000 SBC as a more powerful x86 alternative to Raspberry Pi 4, but if it still does not cut it, AAEON de next-TGU8 or de next-V2K8 should as the business card-sized single board computers are equipped with respectively an Intel Tiger Lake processor up to a Core i7-1185G7E, or and AMD Ryzen Embedded V2000 SoC up to Ryzen Embedded V2516. But the comparison stops at the size, as both SBCs offer sets of features different from the usual Raspberry Pi form factor with notably up to 16GB RAM, SATA and NVMe storage, dual Ethernet (1x 2.5GbE, 1x Gigabit Ethernet), dual 4K display output via HDMI and eDP, some USB 3.2 ports, as well as serial and …

Description Sorry for uplifting the discussion again around the PWM patch for rockchip64 again, but I did some further tests and I'm not convinced. The patch rk3568-pwm-rockchip.patch looks like a copy-paste patch from rockchip v5.10 kernel and I can't find it on patchwork.kernel.org patches, so I guess it is not suitable for mainline. There is some weird behaviour I'm experiencing. My test board is the rk3318 tvbox, but this is not a cons; instead this is a pro and I'm going to explain why: these tvboxes lacks proper voltage regulator chips (like rk805 or rk808) and instead heavily relies on PWM to do power regulation for CPU and Logic planes. When PWM goes nuts, the bo…

Rack Robotics’ Powercore is an Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) kit that converts your existing 3D printer (or CNC router) into a machine capable of cutting high-precision and detailed metal parts. We’ve already seen 2-in-1 3D printers and laser engravers such as the Creality Ender 3 S1 Pro, but while this type of machine can usually cut plywood or engrave stainless steel, the laser is not powerful enough to cut through aluminum. The Powercore EDM kit changes that by enabling the cutting of aluminum parts up to 4mm thick, although aluminum sheets that are 1mm or thinner are recommended. But before we get into Powercore details, what is Electrical Discharge Machining e…

artifacts: introduce calculate_hash_for_variables() which normalizes the input; use in kernel/uboot/etc Does not look like it, but this is a bugfix -- UBOOT_TARGET_MAP might contain $SRC (due to BL31=, etc) and that is hashed into something only ever matches by accident Also fixes artifact-armbian-desktop vs appgroups/config_base differences some hashed variables might contain "${SRC}", so hashes never match, unless built in Docker - this strips away SRC from all vars and adds debugging so we can detect more later. artifact-uboot: include more variables into hash, for ATF & rk stuff artifact-armbian-desktop: - hashed vars actually contain /armbian in different…

Description This is a resubmission of https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/6482 which was reverted in https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/6524 due to build errors.

Maybe the error is specific to certain configurations and will return, so please don't merge until CI has done some tests and a build was successful. I have slightly improved this latest version by moving the function call to validate_dts in kernel.sh slightly further down after kernel_config ran since make expects a .config file.

Description The "swapaccount=" option has been deprecated in 6.1. Disable it in almost all boot scripts except "boot-sun50iw9.cmd" since that one is used in sun50iw9 legacy kernel, which is version 4.9. In theory, rk3588-legacy is also still <6.1, but that boot script is also used by 6.1 vendor kernel and the amount of new images being built/used with the 5.10 legacy kernel is likely minimal. As far as I know, bootscript won't update automatically, so these changes will only apply to freshly built images. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Wireless power, no matter how inefficient it may be, sounds good and even looks good with the “5V remote wireless power supply LED pack” we feature in this post. It also feels magical with the LEDs lighting up thanks to magnetic resonance coupling technology. The solution comes with a coil as a transmitter and each LED bead also includes a small coil as a receiver. When the two are coupled, energy can be transferred from the transmitter to the receiver through the air, paper, or plastic casing, and the LEDs will light up. The magnetic field intensity in this technology is said to be similar to that of the Earth’s magnetic field, and it will not be harmful to human health …
