Description There is a drawback to configuring audio routing using asound.state. Although you can specify the device of the axg-sound card via commands to output sound to either HDMI or the internal speaker, in a desktop environment, there is only one analog output (defaulting to HDMI). This is because the device actually has only one sound card. By using ALSA UCM to manage sound instances and audio routing, you can freely choose between HDMI or the built-in speaker output in a desktop environment. This is because PipeWire/WirePlumber will parse ALSA UCM and create sinks. How Has This Been Tested? build image boot form usb drive test sound in CLI and DE Checklist: [x] My code follows the style guidelines of this project [x] I have performed a self-review of my own code [x] I have commented my code, particularly in hard-to-understand areas [x] My changes generate no new warnings View the full article

Description Add initial support for board Luckfox Nova W. Luckfox Nova W is recently produced board on SoC Rockchip RK3308B: 4 x Cortex-A35 CPU, 512 RAM, 8 GB eMMC. It also has Ethernet, WIFI & BT, USB-A and USB-C ports, soldered microphone. Product page: https://www.luckfox.com/Luckfox-Nova?ci=646 But beware: it is very fresh board, has almost no documentation and only buildroot SDK with kernel 5.10 is available from vendor. Documentation I decided to create separate directory for vendor kernel patches. This kernel must be the same as rk35xx-vendor-6.1, but this SoC is not RK35XX. Used U-Boot is mainline. Instead of DKMS AIC8800 driver I enabled the one from kernel sources, because I needed to apply patches to it. And image builds faster than with DKMS. UART4 is used for serial console and by proprietary firmware blobs. How Has This Been Tested? [ ] eMMC does not work in mainline kernel, current and edge [x] Boot Noble 24.04 with vendor kernel rk6.1 [x] USB host and peripheral is working [x] WIFI is working [x] SPI May have quirks, though spidev-test appears to be working [ ] SPI1-M1 MISO is not receiving data [x] SPI2 is working Checklist: Please delete options that are not relevant. [x] My code follows the style guidelines of this project [x] I have performed a self-review of my own code [x] I have commented my code, particularly in hard-to-understand areas [x] My changes generate no new warnings [x] Any dependent changes have been merged and published in downstream modules View the full article
