And it looks someone did the work and patches are floating around. GOod :-). I'm fighting with kexec crashing as soon as I pass dtb. Do I need to modify the dtb somehow? Best regards, Pavel

Currently I have mobian with rather old 6.1 kernel on it, and lack of keyboard/ethernet makes things tricky.] So far I'm mostly using "pmbootstrap build --src" [1], which essentially builds the pmOS kernel package but replaces the source with the tree I point at. I keep thinking I should try envkernel.sh [2], which is supposed to set up cross-compiling with the usual make flow. Maybe that'd work with bindeb-pkg? I don't know how well an unpatched mainline kernel would run, I'm currently using megi's 6.7 tree [3] plus the pmOS patches as the basis for my rtw88_8723cs development [4] (if you look at the history, it's v6.7 -> orangepi-6.7 -> pmos-6.7 -> rtw88_8723cs). I know megi's kernel has some DTS patches but haven't looked too deeply into the changes, maybe some could be upstreamed together with the camera part.

Re: Front camera on pinephone
Hello Pavel, Isn't this simply the case of picking the gc2145 bits from Megis tree? https://megous.com/git/linux/tree/arch/arm64/boot/dts/allwinner/sun50i-a64-pinephone.dtsi?h=orange-pi-5.10#n410 [For the pinephone kernel development there's the option of building the kernel using envkernel.sh in postmarketOS with https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Compiling_kernels_with_envkernel.sh which has some automation for building a kernel and pushing it to a connected device. Ethernet and keyboard are replaced by ssh and usb-networking in this case] Greetings, Martijn On 1/16/24 09:05, Pavel Machek wrote: Hi!
