boy oh boy. that was a tough day with #riscv and the #dcromapad2

turns out, both OSs (ubuntu and debian) that were shipped do work but they are so heavily patched that a simple upgrade will brick them.

ask me how I know! :D

the fact I made a copy of the sd card saved my day so I could at least use the tablet somewhat today.

deepcomputing is aware of the issue and provided a video and source for a new image. will attempt reflashing tomorrow. wish me luck.

let me know of any questiond! bye

Good morning! After a really short night, partly due to my new #riscv "toy" waiting for me, I'm back on #ubuntu 24.04 LTS. It's bumpy but what did I expect from a "dev" device.

I'm trying to look for information about how to make some actual progress. I checked flutter but the dependencies are not resolvable rn.

Anyone have an idea where to start with getting this device up to speed?

I totally forgot to send my last toot so now you get two at once!

I checked and found something rather unsettling: The #spacemit X60 core (seems to be part of the k1 processor) is marketed as RVA22 compliant but I dont think it is. So far, the following extensions do not seem to be included or I'm just blind: B, Za64rs, Zic64b, Zicbop, Ziccamoa, Ziccif, Zicclsm, Ziccrse.

There are a ton more extensions that are included and some that are optional so there is room for error on my side.
