I'm trying to get Xorg running, but I don't seem to have any possibility available for the VIDEO_CARD variable:
| Code: | | [ebuild R ] x11-base/xorg-drivers-21.1-r2::gentoo INPUT_DEVICES="libinput (-elographics) -evdev (-joystick) -synaptics (-vmmouse) (-void) (-wacom)" VIDEO_CARDS="-amdgpu (-ast) (-dummy) (-fbdev) -freedreno (-geode) (-i915) (-intel) (-mga) (-nouveau) (-nvidia) (-omap) (-qxl) (-r128) -radeon -radeonsi (-siliconmotion) -tegra -vc4 (-vesa) (-via) (-virtualbox) (-vmware)" 0 KiB |
What decides what choices are available?

You have a few chocies available there, but none of the available are set. The gentoo ARM profile has most of them masked.
What kind of system are you setting up here? Does it have a discrete gpu? |

Progman3K,
Do you feel lucky?
| nvidia-drivers/nvidia-drivers-550.54.14.ebuild: | amd64? ( ${NV_URI}Linux-x86_64/${PV}/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-${PV}.run )
arm64? ( ${NV_URI}Linux-aarch64/${PV}/NVIDIA-Linux-aarch64-${PV}.run )
$(printf "${NV_URI}%s/%s-${PV}.tar.bz2 " \
nvidia-{installer,modprobe,persistenced,settings,xconfig}{,})
${NV_URI}NVIDIA-kernel-module-source/NVIDIA-kernel-module-source-${PV}.tar.xz |
It also has | Code: | | KEYWORDS="-* ~amd64 ~arm64" |
which means known broken everywhere except amd64 and arm64
so there is an evil binary blob for you but its hard masked | Code: | | VIDEO_CARDS=(-nvidia) |
Feel free to test it though and file a bug to remove the mask if it works.
The nouveau driver has | Code: | | KEYWORDS="amd64 ~arm64 ~loong ppc ppc64 ~riscv x86" |
which implies that its been build on arm64 at least.
Again, its hard masked. so the same process applies.

Per man emerge, that looks like those USE flags were masked. Based on context, that is likely done by your profile, probably because someone expected the flags to be broken on your chosen CPU architecture, in which case enabling them would lead to guaranteed failure, so the flags are masked to prevent that failure. If you show emerge --info, someone can inspect the active configuration for your specific profile to confirm or refute that. Discussion in this thread suggests you are using an arm profile. Are you using arm, or arm64? As I read the mask files, your output is expected on arm, and unexpected on arm64. | Code: | $ git grep nouveau -- '*use.mask'
profiles/arch/arm/use.mask:104:video_cards_nouveau
profiles/arch/arm64/use.mask:123:-video_cards_nouveau |
As I read the product page you linked, I think that board could use arm64. |

So yes, it is arm64.
Being able to try the nouveau or nvidia drivers, is that simply a question of adding them in
/etc/portage/package.accept_keywords/keywords ? |

Progman3K,
From your profile, both (-nouveau) (-nvidia) are masked. That's what the () means.
| Code: | | VIDEO_CARDS="-amdgpu (-ast) (-dummy) (-fbdev) -freedreno (-geode) (-i915) (-intel) (-mga) (-nouveau) (-nvidia) (-omap) (-qxl) (-r128) -radeon -radeonsi (-siliconmotion) -tegra -vc4 (-vesa) (-via) (-virtualbox) (-vmware)" |
The first step is to fix the masks, so you have control
That' two entries in /etc/portage/profile/use.mask
| Code: | -video_cards_nouveau
-video_cards_nvidia |
That should get you | Code: | | VIDEO_CARDS="-amdgpu (-ast) (-dummy) (-fbdev) -freedreno (-geode) (-i915) (-intel) (-mga) -nouveau -nvidia (-omap) (-qxl) (-r128) -radeon -radeonsi (-siliconmotion) -tegra -vc4 (-vesa) (-via) (-virtualbox) (-vmware)" |
notice that the () have gone now.
Add one or the other to VIDEO_CARDS in make.conf.
Both are keyworded ~arm64, so you will need package.accept_keywords entries for them too.

Hmm,
Thank you for the teachings. I think I understand a tiny bit more how portage works, now. It truly is amazing.
Sadly though, it appears there is a last hurdle to clear.
I am running the kernel I obtained from solidrun, with a Gentoo userspace.
| Code: | | Linux hammer 5.10.35-00078-g735b8ebfa4d4 #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jan 4 17:29:49 UTC 2024 aarch64 GNU/Linux |
I've tried to boot a gentoo-sources kernel, so I can enable/disable things myself, but to do this, I'd have to apply a bunch of patches, and it's not clear to me exactly how to do all that, yet. Simply configuring the sources from the solidrun kernel's config doesn't seem to yield a kernel that can mount the ssd.
The upshot is that the running kernel doesn't seem to support graphics...

I can't use the nvidia driver either, as it appears to require finding the kernel's .config file to install itself. |

So if you fix this, then you have a config to test the nvidia drivers with? It might be as simple as borrowing the kernel commandline from the running kernel there. at least the..
| Code: | | root=PARTUUID=eb5175f3-e261-744f-8d80-66ab1ea0ce67 rw rootwait |
Also make sure you have the correct filesystem support enabled in that kernel config |

I've tried setting the following in the 6.7.9 gentoo-sources config:
| Code: | | CONFIG_CMDLINE="console=ttyAMA0,115200 earlycon=pl011,mmio32,0x21c0000 default_hugepagesz=1024m hugepagesz=1024m hugepages=2 pci=pcie_bus_perf root=PARTUUID=eb5175f3-e261-744f-8d80-66ab1ea0ce67 rw rootwait" |
Once the kernel is built, I copy onto the partition where syslinux can find it as GImage.gz (Gentoo Image).
The bootloader does find it.
I can select it, and it does boot, but it ends up stalled at the end, before mounting the root partition. If only that step would complete, then there would be nothing stopping me from setting up the video-card parameters and finally getting a gui.
Its console is connected via serial, so I do have the complete boot log:

I think I misunderstood what you meant by | Quote: | | Simply configuring the sources from the solidrun kernel's config doesn't seem to yield a kernel that can mount the ssd. |
I thought you were editing the config for the solidrun kernel as in this maybe https://github.com/SolidRun/linux-stable
It's fairly old, but it may contain the patches you need. They do have newer branches too. I can't speak for the stability of any of these though - I don't own one of these boards. Maybe contact the company's support and ask them about it. |
