Remove raspberrypi-firmware and update throttle script
<fogobogo> ah yeah
[13:26:47] <fogobogo> install script
[13:26:55] <fogobogo> already found an issue
[13:27:24] <fogobogo> never can recall which one it is but one of them isn't needed anymore firmware-raspberrypi raspberrypi-firmware
[13:27:39] <fogobogo> the one with the bcrmGLES libs
[13:28:10] <fogobogo> unless you hate mesa
[13:28:33] <bret> I think raspberrypi-firmware is optional, but if you want to monitor throttle and temps you need it still
[13:28:54] <fogobogo> no.
[13:29:23] <fogobogo> cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp
[13:29:43] <bret> I added it to make this script work: https://github.com/bcomnes/raspi-packer/blob/master/throttle.sh
[13:29:50] <bret> maybe there are better/other ways of doing it
[13:29:57] <fogobogo> likewise you can cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/scaling_cur_freq
[13:30:35] <fogobogo> now for voltage i'm not sure theres something
[13:31:09] <bret> Does having raspberrypi-firmware installed do bad things/have drawbacks?
[13:31:20] <bret> found where I added it: https://github.com/bcomnes/raspi-packer/commit/25c598d0be2e11c08a14cb8016854afe442014ca
[13:31:24] <bret> re-addedit
[13:32:15] <fogobogo> make might pick it up compiling if it detects those. some very broken libs anyway
[13:32:53] <fogobogo> god those were some dark time when those were around
[13:34:33] <fogobogo> they should only work with the framebuffer driver anyway
[13:34:42] <bret> have to bounce. Finding approaches for a similar script would be nice. I'll put it as a todo
[13:35:08] <bret> I mean being added to the video group to check throttle status seemed weird ngl
[13:35:13] <fogobogo> o/
