Got #OpenRGB implemented on #Windows for the #Valve #SteamMachine! My PawnIO module still needs some cleanup but it is now functionally equivalent with Linux

#OpenRGB #SteamMachine progress! SteamOS has the leds-valve.c driver which uses IO port access to control the LEDs via the EC. This driver exposes sysfs entries for the LEDs and we can use that. For Windows it may require a custom PawnIO module. I managed to build leds-valve.c on Arch against the stock Arch kernel, will try to make a DKMS package for AUR to easily install it.

I made a video discussing and demonstrating my RP2040 ARGB splitter and showing off some upcoming #OpenRGB features.

I designed a PCB! I ordered some #RP2040 Zero (Waveshare clones) because I didn't feel like soldering a bunch of tiny SMD components when a tiny module with them already soldered could be had for under $3. Just needed to route everything out to connectors to make a functional ARGB hub, which could also act as an ARGB controller from the RP2040-Zero's USB port (though it is meant to be powered from the incoming ARGB connector).

Yesssss! All it needed was the idle reset and to fix an off by one error on the bit counter! Successfully splitting a 30 LED WS2812 stream into two 15 LED streams (actually the controller is sending 255 LEDs but #OpenRGB is only driving 30). Now to rig up a third output to make sure subsequent switches still work.

ARGB splitters suck. They just duplicate the same signal to all outputs and ruin the addressable in ARGB. I'm attempting to use the #RP2040 PIO to create a smart ARGB splitter by counting the bits and outputting the signal to multiple pins. I attempted this years ago on an ATTiny, but it was too slow. PIO is fast enough to pass through the WS2812 signal unharmed as well as able to count the bits to know when to switch outputs.?

I tried the native terminal but I couldn't figure out how to make it use the entire screen for the GUI. Hacker's Keyboard has all the special keys so I don't need screen wasted by the extra buttons, Termux lets you turn them off but the Android 16 Linux app didn't seem to have such an option. It would be wonderful if there was a way to just run a Phosh session fullscreen.

My #PixelFold came today! Installed @npub1kwa…e0nj, though with most of the Play Store framework as I need Android Auto, Maps, and GMail. Setting up #Termux now so I can do #Linux stuff on the big screen. Folded up, this thing feels smaller than the past few phones I've mained but unfolded it's a freaking tablet. If only the Google Tensor G2 had mainline support I'd be trying to put #postmarketOS on it.

I don't want attestation to begin with. Software should not care what hardware it's running on and hardware should not care what software it's running. Bootloader locking should be at the whim of the device's owner not the companies that made it, and it should be optional with the option to enroll your own keys if you wish to use it. Moving ownership from Google to another company doesn't solve the inherent problem here. I own my device, not the manufacturer.

I created an updated version of my #OpenRGB Desk Fan project, a 3D printed and Arduino Pro Micro based stand and controller for an RGB PC fan to be used as a desk fan. The new design cleans up the base and allows both 120mm and 140mm fans to be used.

Working on #OpenRGB at the library is relaxing. Today I cleaned up ProfileManager code and added the ability to load a profile on open, which I think will replace the AutoStart-specific load profile option. The new profile format integrates properly with plugins, allowing saved profiles to save effects plugin effects directly rather than the plugin having its own profile system. Tested On Open, On Exit, On Suspend, and On Resume on both Windows and Linux.

Upgraded all of my working arm64 #postmarketOS devices to the latest #phosh #systemd edge! Also wrote a small script to do all my preferred app installs and some configurations (my custom squeekboard layout, autostart TouchpadEmulator, set default scaling to 200%) to make reinstalling less painful.

My Touchpad Emulator project is now in the #AlpineLinux testing repository! My merge request got merged this morning and I was able to install it on my #postmarketOS edge devices! The package name is touchpad-emulator. It turns the touchscreen into a trackpad style mouse to make desktop UIs easier to use on a touch-only mobile device.

Success! I've installed a new battery in my #OnePlus 6 running #postmarketOS. Old battery capacity reported around 0.5Ah, new battery out of the box reports 2.96Ah and was around 50% charged, so letting it charge up now. Used a hair dryer to weaken the adhesive and @npub1ulc…x3hg suction cup and picks to get the back off. After removing the back, swapping the battery is quite simple.

Trying to calibrate my OnePlus 6 and 6T batteries on #postmarketOS. I noticed my OP6T has had worse and worse battery life lately and my "new" OP6 has even worse. Added charge monitoring display to the Powersupply app and have been doing charge/discharge cycles. The phones go from 100 down to 0 and pmOS shuts down, but if I power back on a few times the power tracking resets to 100% and continues running a while longer. Doing compile jobs pulls ~6W which makes for a decent discharge load.

Wow! The QR code scanning verification feature of the Fractal Matrix client JUST WORKS on OnePlus 6T on #postmarketOS! It verified the OnePlus 6's login. Didn't even need to use focus control, just focused by moving the phone closer.

My new OnePlus 6 came today! It was sold as "open box, like new" and it is in immaculate condition! It's also the 128GB Flash, 8GB RAM variant. Excited to get #postmarketOS on it and this time trying the u-boot and generic sdm845 method.
Got this one as the other OP6 I ordered I ended up keeping Android on, it's only 64GB/6GB and has noticeable OLED burn.

New weird issue I've run into with #Librewolf on #postmarketOS / #AlpineLinux - the latest version in the Alpine repository doesn't want to play any videos. I've tried on both YouTube and several Peertube instances and videos just sit at an endless spinner. Audio works fine, playing music from my Subsonic server works no problem. I installed the #Flatpak version and symlinked my profile directories, it plays video just fine using the same profile.

Trying to get #postmarketOS up and running on my old Samsung phones now, using lk2nd, but the T variants weren't supported. Added and submitted an lk2nd merge request!
Unfortunately, there may be a regression preventing file system boot. The version shipped by pmOS works on my Nexus 5 but I flashed this new build and it too won't boot from the rootfs now.

Nexus 5 (lg-hammerhead) joins the group again after reflashing #postmarketOS on it. I set all these up to make sure #TouchpadEmulator autostart works with screen rotation on all of them. I released a new version with minor changes to get this working and updated my Alpine merge request.

Tried the #OnePlus 6T camera in #OBS and it works! Cannot select resolution and the default is pretty small and zoomed in, but frame rate is smooth. Might be another way to record video with #postmarketOS!
Front camera is still very purple. Unfortunately, having two Pipewire sources active simultaneously (to see both cameras at once) does not seem to work. They both just freeze.

Just pushed an update to my Touchpad Emulator for Linux phones running #postmarketOS. Added a udev rule and modules-load file to set up the needed devices for the `input` group. Add your user to that group and you no longer need to enter your password. This also makes it seamless to have #TouchpadEmulator autostart on login! The program allows the touchscreen surface to be used as a laptop-style touchpad mouse, making desktop apps easier to use on small screens.

Tested the latest #GNOME #Snapshot on #postmarketOS on my #PINE64 #PinePhonePro! It's been a while since I revisited the PinePhonePro but with cameras and camera utilities coming a long way on newer devices I wanted to revisit #libcamera on the PinePhones. I installed @npub1f27…g56p's cameractrl and it successfully controls focus, but the PPP camera seems to have autoexposure that reduces the utility of cameractrl's exposure slider. Anyways, here's a picture of some other postmarketOS devices.

I'm impressed with the #GNOME #Snapshot app. Built in QR code scanner is fast and detected even blurry codes. The stock #OnePlus 6/6T camera app on Android doesn't scan codes at all. This was a big lacking area in #LinuxMobile as QR codes are everywhere and everyone expects you to be able to scan them but #postmarketOS was unable to do so until the recent camera bringup, at least for the OnePlus 6T.

LibreWolf is where it's at. I agree that the defaults are a bit too restrictive but it's easy enough to change, and starting from a default of too much privacy is better than starting with a default of too little. I do want to move away from Firefox Sync now since Mozilla holds the keys to that system, maybe I'll look into self hosting it.

#postmarketOS is awesome. I'm listening to music on my OnePlus 6T using Supersonik and OpenVPN to connect to my Subsonic server at home and then running Keyboard Visualizer to make my office PC's keyboard react to the audio with #OpenRGB using the USB Ethernet connection.

Working on an improvement to @npub16ss…2rua's Supersonik music player/Subsonic client for #LinuxMobile. I'm adding support for automatic album artwork fetching from Last.fm, a feature I had in my old CalcTunes Android app. I got the file handling cleaned up so Last.fm images are cached in the app's .local folder and loaded when the Subsonic server itself has no art for a given album. Turned a blank white page into something nice to look at!
Some of these are from the server, some from Last.fm!

Let's compare! OnePlus 6 (stock Android) vs OnePlus 6T (postmarketOS). Both phones have the exact same dual camera module it seems.

I made a program to help with using desktop applications on #LinuxMobile called Touchpad Emulator, it lets you use the entire screen surface as a laptop-style touchpad and uses either the volume buttons or alert slider (OnePlus 6/6T) to switch from touchscreen to mouse mode. Also with the next Phosh there will be a screen scaling quick setting to quickly scale down for desktop apps!

Do any of you #linux people have any thoughts why htop isn't displaying colors on my #postmarketOS OnePlus 6T running Phosh? AFAIK it is fine on my other pmOS devices. It's the terminal, not htop itself, as if I ssh into other machines and run htop I get the same thing. I'm not getting colors, just weird symbols in the graphs.

The main developer of the xiaomi-elish #postmarketOS port, Jianhua Lu, asked me to test a note taking app called rnote with the Xiaomi pen now that it is working. I'm happy to report that yes, the pen works great! I really like this app and will definitely be using it more in the future as a replacement to the note taking Android app the tablet originally shipped with. Only issue is the pen buttons currenty act as page up and page down rather than as pen buttons, but that's how the pen works.

New #phosh #squeekboard landed in #postmarketOS! Handles fractional scaling significantly better now! The keyboard still gets smaller, but it stretches to fill the available space rather than wasting space with black bars and making the keys even smaller. I hope that fractional scaling eventually will not impact keyboard height at all, but this is already a huge usability upgrade.
This is at 150% scale:

After seeing a #postmarketOS merge request adding the Xiaomi Pad 5 non-Pro (xiaomi-nabu) and seeing they had the pen working, I cherry-picked some commits from the sm8150 kernel tree to the sm8250 kernel tree and got pen working on the Xiaomi Pad 5 Pro (xiaomi-elish)! I created a merge request against the sm8250-mainline project so hopefully it gets pulled into postmarketOS in the next kernel release.

It turns your device's touchscreen into a mouse. Toggles between mouse and touchscreen mode using volume keys or slider (on OnePlus 6T) and also toggles onscreen keyboard enabled/disabled.

2024-11-15 06:44:42 UTC

Got Touchpad Emulator working on my #Xiaomi Pad 5 Pro running #postmarketOS! It is odd in that the volume up and down keys are on two different input devices so I had to do some refactoring to handle that. Also the touchscreen emits different events for some reason and it emits them in a slightly different order than on other devices I've used Touchpad Emulator with, so I had to make a workaround for that. I think that workaround messed with scroll wheel emulation, a problem for tomorrow.

Another reason to not trust cloud gaming services, as if there weren't already enough reasons.

Another game I will never touch again. EA is garbage. Won't be playing anything else from that awful company anytime soon.

About time! If your game needs malware to play it I should be able to know before I buy. Having to put that badge of shame on the store page hopefully will make publishers hesitate.

Also, I noticed that the OnePlus 6T kernel (linux-postmarketos-qcom-sdm845) does not have CONFIG_HID_PLAYSTATION enabled. I've seen complaints that DualShock 4 controllers didn't work and I just bought a GameSir X2S Bluetooth phone grip controller that mimics a DS4. It pairs just fine, btmon shows controller data is coming in, but no input device gets registered. It works on my PC (Arch Linux) and dmesg shows the "playstation" driver is responsible.

I've updated my postmarketOS Steam wiki page:
https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Steam
I split it into two guides, one for using FEX and the other for using box86/box64:
https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Steam_in_FEX
https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Steam_in_box86
I've tested both setups on my OnePlus 6T, but have not tested many games on box86/box64 yet.

Huge difference. FEX got 35fps, box86/64 got 50fps.

Half Life 2 Deathmatch in box86/64, it feels smoother than it did in FEX. Going to run HL2 Lost Coast benchmark next.

#Steam in Box86! I set it up in a similar way on #postmarketOS, this time using a Debian Distrobox container as Debian has full arm64 and armhf multiarch support, installed box86 and box64 and dependencies. I want to compare performance between box86/64 and FEX.

Made a short video demoing Celeste and Steam on FEX in #postmarketOS. I want to do a more in depth video soon.

Steam on #PinePhonePro with #postmarketOS! Let's see how games fare on this one.

Half Life 2 Deathmatch works great on #postmarketOS #Phosh with FEX-Emu and Distrobox! Runs smoothly on my Xiaomi Pad 5 Pro with the pogo pin keyboard and a Bluetooth mouse!

Works! I have USB network between the laptop and tablet, stream is 30fps 2560x1600 but the quality isn't great, haven't messed with settings to try and improve it though. Only major issue so far is the screen auto dimming isn't inhibited on the tablet.

This sounds awesome, I wanted to be able to use my #postmarketOS tablet (Xiaomi Pad 5 Pro) as a second monitor with my laptop. I'll have to give this one a try!

* Check postmarketOS wiki for best supported devices
* Go find one in acceptable conditon on ebay
* Use it until it dies or a significantly better supported device exists
* Repeat

I certainly won't be playing GTA6 after this. Rockstar will see no money from me going forward after this terrible, horrifically dumb decision. I wish I could refund GTA V on Steam.

OnePlus 6T is indeed great with #postmarketOS! I have been messing around with it for several years now and it's the best Linux phone experience I've used. I still have my main phone on Android, but have a second SIM for my Linux phone. I do calls and texts on the Android phone but the Linux phone is amazing for pocket coding, SSH, VPN, file management, etc. as it truly feels like a pocketable PC rather than an Internet-enabled appliance.
