dinit lifehack for debugging extremely early services: logfile = /dev/tty0

on that note, here's some more Chimera Mobile progress

went to IKEA today

I need this sticker

@strm @fossdd @Logical_Error @z3ntu @newbyte @lanodan @cas @pabloyoyoista @valpackett agreed, a public forum for these things is more suitable than matrix chats. I'll set up a discourse instance on mainlining.org tomorrow - let's give it a try :)

@cas @fossdd @lanodan @newbyte @z3ntu @pabloyoyoista It gets worse: systemd only supports Linux 5.4+, which is very reasonable (https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/main/README#L50). The more PostmarketOS wants to be a "real", standard Linux distro and adopt more components (like systemd), the more it needs to realize that maintaining Android kernels isn't worthwhile.

@cas @strm @fossdd @z3ntu @newbyte @lanodan @pabloyoyoista If people want to get their hands dirty with building a downstream kernel, nothing is stopping them from doing so. They can compile it and build an Android boot image if they want. But I fail to see why postmarketOS should be a playground for people to compile their Android kernels, package them upstream and never come back (because that's what most devices w/downstream in testing are: unmaintained)

time to fix all desktop UIs for s390x, plasma and phosh, we're coming for you

I finally managed to get panel working on the Xiaomi 12. I would like to curse at Qualcomm for the mistake I had in my panel driver for the last year, because it was not obvious at all. Anyways, time to get SM8450 working in all its glory from here! So much is already done :D

Obligatory "camera is beginning to work on my PostmarketOS device" post (yes, it's the 5MP macro without actuator at the moment, but hey!)

Was wandering around in Frankfurt and stumbled across this beautiful plate :)

@cas and @elly hacking on the BQ Aquaris X and X Pro, hunting for UART (because I was too scared to do it :D)
