CarlFKadhoc: because of the travel cost?00:53
adhocCarlFK: travel costs are a few hundred dollars. The hobbyist is about 600$AUD.00:59
adhocBut is the accommodation up there this time that is ridiculous.00:59
adhocWould be different if "work" was paying for it.00:59
xobsGithub seems slightly unhappy today. It's not fast. :(02:45

xobsMan, releases take a long time.  Anyone feel like trying a beta Foboot?05:52
*** rohitksingh has joined #tomu06:05
CarlFKxobs: sure06:36
xobsCarlFK: You mostly have hacker units, correct?06:37
CarlFKyes06:38
xobsAlright, I've just built the evt image. I'll do hacker next.06:39
xobsApropos of nothing, do you have any way to re-flash hacker units if things go wrong?06:40
CarlFKyeah - pogo pins and a pi06:51
xobsCarlFK: https://github.com/xobs/foboot/tree/master/releases/v2.0.007:20
tpbTitle: foboot/releases/v2.0.0 at master · xobs/foboot · GitHub (at github.com)07:20
xobsTry installing `hacker-top.dfu` just to make sure it works.  That is, run `dfu-util -l` to see what version you're on, then run `dfu-util -D evt-top.dfu` to load v2.0.0.07:21
xobs * Try installing `hacker-top.dfu` just to make sure it works.  That is, run `dfu-util -l` to see what version you're on, then run `dfu-util -D hacker-top.dfu` to load v2.0.0.07:22
xobsAfterwards, run `dfu-util -l` again to make sure it says `v2.0.0`.  Then run `dfu-util -D hacker-top.dfu` again to load it over itself, just to make sure writing works.07:22
xobs(Note: That should be `hacker-top.dfu` and not `evt-top.dfu`)07:22
xobsBasically, the goal is to see if SPI flash is working.  Sometimes I've seen a red-blink-of-death on the second load.07:24
xobsIf you DO get a red-blink-of-death, I'll pull the release and think about it some more.  But once you're confident you can install stuff, you can flash v2.0.0 onto the device permanently by loading `hacker-updater.dfu`.  It'll go all rainbowey then reboot itself, and you'll have v2.0.0.07:26
xobsCarlFK: And of course, with v2.0.0, you can use tinyusb, which will get you your HID stuff :)07:26
CarlFKxobs: catching up...07:33
CarlFKFound DFU: [1209:5bf0] ver=0101, devnum=85, cfg=1, intf=0, path="3-2", alt=0, name="Fomu Hacker running DFU Bootloader v1.9.1", serial="UNKNOWN"07:36
CarlFKxobs: also, I should report this somewhere - I have some other device on my thinkpad that makes this show up, wich is a little alarming Cannot open DFU device 0a5c:21f307:38
CarlFKor confusing when I was trying to do https://workshop.fomu.im/07:38
tpbTitle: fomu-workshop | Support files for participating in a Fomu workshop (at workshop.fomu.im)07:38
CarlFKis that worth opening an issue?07:39
CarlFKFound DFU: [1209:5bf0] ver=0101, devnum=86, cfg=1, intf=0, path="3-2", alt=0, name="Fomu Hacker running DFU Bootloader v2.0.0", serial="UNKNOWN07:39
xobsCarlFK: The riscv-blink workshop entry should probably be modified to instruct users to load the `.dfu` file, yeah.07:41
xobsMicropython will need to be updated to work with v2+, as will riscv-usb-cdcacm.  But at least tinyusb works!  And loading is faster.07:45
CarlFKneat. yay.07:45
xobsI updated the README for riscv-blink so now it says to load `riscv-blink.dfu` and not `riscv-blink.bin`.07:46
CarlFKHmm?07:49
CarlFKno, I mean things like 'dfu-util -l' show it07:50
CarlFKhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/p/yMqY6TGwtK/07:50
tpbTitle: Ubuntu Pastebin (at paste.ubuntu.com)07:50
xobsOh.  Yes, that's to be expected.  It asks all devices for information on what they are, and your user doesn't have permission to read from that particular device.07:51
CarlFKnow I know, but when I was first plunging into the docs, it was confusing. so I'm thinking you might want to warn people about it.  but I also understand how too much docs is overwhelming07:53
xobsOh!  Okay.  I added a note to that effect in the top part where DFU is introduced.07:56
CarlFKyay.  im helping :p07:59
xobsCarlFK: Very much so.  Did you end up installing it on the board?08:01
CarlFKI got as far as the micropython >>> prompt, played a bit with the led and packed up for the night08:02
xobsMicropython prompt?08:02
CarlFKyes08:02

xobsMicropython doesn't work with v2.0.0 yet.  I'm curious how you got it running...08:04
CarlFKnot now, a few weeks ago08:04
