im not insane enough (like you people duh) to build on x61, i build on desktop
<riteo>
lol
<riteo>
that's interesting
<riteo>
you build and then move the cache on the laptop?
<midfavila>
mfw i built kiss on the r01
* midfavila
sweats
<ivyfri12_>
riteo: so far i just build
<ivyfri12_>
and then build
<ivyfri12_>
and thats it
<midfavila>
r01 lives
<midfavila>
woop woop
<riteo>
so it's official?
<riteo>
kiss r01?
<midfavila>
neb
<midfavila>
i just burned the stock image because i fried the original one
<midfavila>
i'm experimenting rn
<midfavila>
trying to get the r01's software up to feature parity with normal smartphone stuff
<midfavila>
atm i'm focusing on a hotspot feature
<ivyfri12_>
wow r01 is almost like n900 but it doesnt suck!
<midfavila>
i have hostapd working and i have the 4g modem working
<midfavila>
and brctl runs
<midfavila>
but for some reason ubuntu only comes with cdc-qmi or w/e
<midfavila>
and i need -mbim
<midfavila>
because brctl doesnt like cdc-wdm device files
<midfavila>
it was a USB TTY
<midfavila>
wants*
<riteo>
oh I see
<riteo>
how are you handling the modem?
<midfavila>
clockwork provides a script
<riteo>
there's like modemmanager but it's networkmanager levels of ughhhhhhhhhh
<riteo>
oh I see
<midfavila>
given the lack of polish for the rest of the r01's software i can't imagine it's very good but it does work
<midfavila>
i'll likely modify the script i wrote for my toughbook's modem when i still had that for the first release of r01 kiss
<riteo>
please document everything eventually
<midfavila>
i want to write a few scripts for different features like yeah managing the modem and such and then slap a dialog(1)-based interface on top
<riteo>
I need more ad-hoc simple DEs in my life
<midfavila>
and yeah ofc i'm gonna document it lel
<midfavila>
my goal is to be able to easily take notes and organise documents, browse text-based websites, view documents and images, communicate via SMS and various IM protocols in some sort of unified fashion that also manages contacts, get FDE working,
<midfavila>
get video playback working, and some way to interface with youtube/invidious...
<riteo>
oooh does the r01 have hw decode
<midfavila>
no
<riteo>
oof
<midfavila>
but in tty the cpu is powerful enough to handle it
<midfavila>
the r01 has no graphics hardware
<riteo>
I'm worried more about battery power than cpu power
<midfavila>
well, a big problem with the current system is that it uses full-fat versions of everything
<midfavila>
full X.Org, full systemd, full networkmanager, glibc, on and on
