No ale dobrý den 🤤
Trochu lepší SBC s ohledem na kompatibilitu Linux a BSD systémů, než je Raspberry Pi 5.
#Radxa #Rock5B #rk3588
@j4n3z hihi, came here from the tag and got your post auto-translated from #FirefoxTranslations so I hope I understand it correctly - but does linux support rpi5 so badly? If it doesn't run linux well, what does it run then? BSD I know not enough about... cheers!
@ari hey, your translation seems correct 🙂
Pi5 is supported by linux thanks to Pi foundation and their special kernel and BCM2712 specific patches. If you want to use mainline, you'll miss features.
As of BSD, good luck with finding some at least booting on Pi5.
Rockchip has way better mainline support and thanks to EDK2 you should be able to run any generic arm distro (I have to test this yet). BSD heavily relies on EDK2 and afaik you should be able to run some of it on Rock 5B quite well.
@j4n3z that is pretty amazing
@ari agreed! And I can't wait to try this stuff on my own. Even though I ordered wrong heatsink and am waiting for proper one 😅
If you're interested in seeing more work with RK3588 and other ARM SBCs, there is HW developer on mastodon.social - @mntmn (sorry, Minute, I don't know how to share your account without mentioning you 🙈 ), which makes awesome laptops currently with focus on this APU 🙂

@j4n3z a friend of mine actually has one, awesome piece of gear!

Wasn't aware they're on mastodon, so *follow*
