So I just found my old #Pine64 #Star64 SBC just laying around.
And after finding out that some rpm based distros now support #RISCV I decided to do something slightly cursed:
Flash the VisionFive 2 #RockyLinux v10.1 image to a small SD-Card and see if it works.
It seems to work quite well. I even managed to enroll it to my local #FreeIPA realm.

IDK what to do with it though (I already have a decent homelab). Anyone got any ideas?

Imagination Kernel Graphics Driver Being Extended To AM62P/AM67A/J722S SoCs

The open-source and upstream Imagination Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) kernel graphics driver for supporting their modern graphics IP and pairing with their PowerVR Vulkan driver within Mesa is now being extended to work on the TI AM62P, AM67A, and J722S SoCs.

nice that the img-bxe-4-32-mc4 (included in the StarFive JH7110 (used by #pine64 #star64 ( https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/STAR64 ))) is capable of splitting the GPU in up to 8 virtual GPUs. Sadly the SiFive U74 CPU core does not implement the RISC-V H extension (extension for hardware virtualization instructions).

I was wondering what all those connectors were... The #star64 #sbc now has a map of available connectors on the @PINE64 wiki:

With the arrival of my #starfive #visionfive2 board, I could test my #riscv #gcc software builds.

It's great to see that #debian12 has full support for riscv cross builds and I'm going to upgrade my build docker images to the new version soon.

Unfortunately I run into troubles with the UI after an upgrade attempt again (same as on #star64 from #pine64). Now I need to find a more stable OS image.

However, #riscv support and stability is increasing step by step, and that's good news!
