It is always great to see work of such quality and care. @mntmn @holo_memory @theawesomerandomness Is this right, that the left mouse button is not the leftmost button?  @mntmn @holo_memory @theawesomerandomness see this is why I love your company. Everything is open, now I really want to buy the handbook separately just to support your teams efforts. lots of reform parts and expansions now available at crowd supply: https://www.crowdsupply.com/mnt/reform incl very good deals on a311d processor upgrade (rcm4-bpi) and standalone keyboard My next laptop will be definitely a MNT Reform. I love the idea, the hackability, that's it's open... and the fact that I can have one with a trackball! cool: we were featured in this article by iFixit https://www.ifixit.com/News/94927/how-open-hardware-empowers-users  QA testing MNT Reform Kintex-7 modules with soft RISC-V core (LiteX/VexRiscV) and our eDP encoder board what's missing to make this already pretty cool setup even cooler:  @mntmn around what frame rate it does run?

@mntmn Awesome! Any updates on the possibility of the Next? (the thinner thing you teased a few weeks ago)  my keynote (rant) from the free silicon conference a few weeks ago in paris (fsic2023) is online: https://peertube.f-si.org/videos/watch/448e1166-9993-4f09-a8b5-8ee67e67a7cc

@mntmn FYI: There's also a text version for those rather reading: http://dump.mntmn.com/2023-FSIC-KEYNOTE.pdf  we updated the MNT Reform Documentation page with more links, incl. electronics sources for the subprojects and pre-built firmware binaries, as well as alternative operating systems: https://mntre.com/docs-reform.html do you miss any additional information?

 Kann ich das #MNT #PocketReform an einen Ort in Deutschland auch direkt aus Berlin liefern lassen, oder ist der "Umweg" über Crowd Supply obligatorisch? today i learned about the tool `b4` which makes it really easy to download patch series from lore.kernel.org people working on FOSS: did you see this and did you apply (grants)? https://sovereigntechfund.de/en/challenges/ because of all our hardware projects i'm already spread too thin to contribute in a bigger way to sw projects that i think matter a lot, like linux arm kernel and drivers, mesa, wlroots, wayfire, sway, gnome, pipewire, creative apps like gimp, inkscape, audio and video editors... but i would love to see the relevant people getting this cash and pushing FOSS desktops forward MNT Reform 2023 refresh: MNT Rack Reform BMC is coming together: boot and console UART access works via web, now just missing some buttons for power cycling and need to explore STM32MP1's USB gadget mode to expose disk images to the motherboard via USB. MNT Rack Reform rough prototyping. the unpopulated volume can be used for a GPU or disks and/or UPS batteries and/or fan. |
