I bought board months ago but never figured it out. It feels like the company has abandoned the product and all the support forums for it are filled with bots talking about their favorite blog

 

I can't seem to get it to work. I always get these errors in the terminal when running the spi flash tool that they recommend:

Scanning USB port...
Search usb, timeout set as 3600000 ms

and then eventually an S_TIMEOUT. I think my thinkpad is not even detecting the orange pi at all through usb. Anybody have experience with this. The official documentation is really bad. I also seem to get this on startup of the flash tool:

QThread::setPriority: Cannot set priority, thread is not running
"05-14-2024"
QObject::moveToThread: Cannot move objects with a parent

IRC? Matrix? XMPP?

too late now, I wiped it with a nice EndeavourOS install ages ago

winget doesn't even work properly. I tried installing gcc with it and it installed some random chinese package.

I was given a phone quite young but completely discarded it after I bought myself a thinkpad. No need for it when I can be comfortable on my Arch setup. I think the amount of brain damage could be severely reduced if they only had access to a family PC or something. Most kids probably wouldn't even touch the PC until way later.

Quake 3 Arena or if you don't want to pay/pirate just install openarena. OpenArena should come be in your distros packages

Yes but under the hood, IOS is using a filesystem. Hiding helpful details is not the same as simply being a different way to use a computer. One actively makes the computer harder to use.

Alright I solved it by just chrooting in again and deleted and reinstalled linux-firmware.

I see iwlwifi.

 

So basically I stupidly tried to update while my thinkpad had low battery and it powered off halfway through the update. The system wouldn’t boot because it was complaining that vm-linuz/linux was not found so I performed a chroot-rescue and got it to boot again. I must have messed something up during the process because now the device wlan0 is not showing up in iwctl device list. How can I fix or diagnose this issue? (I am using btrfs if that helps). Has anyone had a similar situation and can lend a hand?

Others say Ken Thompson wrote Unix in three weeks. One week for the editor, one for the assembler and one for the file system.

 

Why would anyone use this over Proton Mail or the gazillion alternatives if it treats people like shit.

 

I can’t find an active thinkpad centric community on here I am just going to post here. My Thinkpad T480s, 16 GB RAM, 238 GB SSD is randomly shutting off while at like 50%. When I try to open it back up it always is dead and I have to connect charger to boot it up again. Why is this happening? Is it battery issue? It complains about not being able to read temp2_input while shutting down and sometimes say PM usage count underflow. Not sure what that is supposed to mean.
