As reported in the matrix room by @theotheroracle, first failing build: - https://hydra.nixos.org/build/249525976 Mapping to only a Nixpkgs change [`faf912b0..f8e2ebd6`](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/compare/faf912b0...f8e2ebd6).

Oops, those notes should be amended. Since #643, using a mainline or mainline-adjacent is required. There is no way forward with vendor sources. So yeah, to make any phone practical,...

> On a side note, what 'promises' are are being referred to in 643 and why would using a first-party vendor supplied kernel be breaking them? If there is a...

Note that you might want to first validate the expected support level of stuff on the phone, and try postmarketOS. Otherwise you might think something that isn't working is expected...

Oh, I never updated this: LCTRL+LSHIFT+TAB has since been confirmed to work fine on the "ANSI" keyboard, so this points towards the matrix I think, too. Thanks for the hard...

This seems to be an RK3399 issue outright, if not that particular mali "vintage". On a Pinebook Pro, I dipped in the debug options, and used this to get niri...

Sorry, I should remove myself from the maintainers list of plasma mobile things. I'm not using it, nor do I have the time to maintain it, anymore.

Haven't tried calamares, but following the standard UEFI install instructions *from before calamares*, and ensuring efivars aren't involved ([notes in the UEFI section from the NixOS on ARM wiki section](https://nixos.wiki/wiki/NixOS_on_ARM/UEFI#Bootloader_configuration))...

In all cases, you might prefer using the `latest` kernel. If you have LUKS enabled, you will need the appropriate drivers in stage-1 for the display. (Like on every system,...

Oh, right, there is one caveat: if there is no console on the kernel cmdline, it's also plausible it's using serial out. - https://gitlab.com/samueldr/nixos-configuration/-/blob/6a6ed934106e31cc93d0db3ff07d4e4ba62fbac1/configuration/hardware/system/pine64-pinebookpro.nix#L103-106
