I think nothing has changed with the new drivers. Here is a dmesg output

That's annoying. I've pinged the upstream repo again.
-
Thanks. The annoying thing on my end is that lately I have to boot the tvbox, wait for like 5 minutes for it to show up on my router's connected clients or respond to a ping and, if it does not, then power it off, remove the sd and power it on again (and repeat it as many times I have to) until it connects properly.
When I am updating it, I disconnect it from the tv, I get it close to my router so that the wifi signal is good. If I leave it on the tv, even the ssh section will be laggy.
-
EDIT: I've ordered one for $25, arriving this evening. It'll give me something to play with while resting legs next week (am running a marathon tomorrow morning).
Is there any progress about SoC S905L2 ? The sound problem ?

How can I find the wireless chip my mxqpro4k uses? Is it realtek's rtl8188 or rtl8189?

If that's the same device that you shared dmesg output from in post #73? then:
The RTL8189ES/FS chips are all part of the same RTL8188 silicon series and basically share the same driver sources; except for a few card specific changes that require compile-time config flags to be set to 'type' the driver correctly to the card; the standard kind of "hack the existing code to work with the new chip" approach that Realtek has historically used that results in 30+ drivers to support instead of having 3-4 silicon-series drivers that use hardware detection to configure the driver appropriately. Fortuntely their new chips are doing that now, but there are no plans (as no commercial benefit to Realtek) for their staff to go back and create similar drivers for their legacy chipsets.

jim_p latest images in my share have another patch that may fix the warning splats? .. please test
-
Errr... probably not. Here is the dmesg.
https://paste.libreelec.tv/unbiased-cattle.logIn case I did not mention it before, I would like to add that the tvbox becomes visible on the network on the second boot and I don't know when it started. The routine is: I disconnect it from the tv, get it close to my router and then wait for it to show up under my router's connected devices so as to ssh to it and update it. When the boot takes more than like 2 minutes, I unplug it and plug it again, and it then shows up.
In other news, yesterday I failed to install its stock firmware. That is why I asked for the wireless chip, Good thing it still boots from the sd.
-
Thanks, reported upstream again
-
New build, same splats, new dmesg... because I don't know if you updated anything related to it (kernel or module).
-
The issue is in the driver not the kernel, so there is nothing new to test unless the driver is bumped.
-
Oh ok. Please notify me when the drivers gets updated.

Testing LE12.0 nightly (25-02-2024) on wetek-play2, ethernet does not work.
At boot time appears the message: ethmactool-config service failed, and dmesg shows the next messages about ethernet:

¿Driver problem?

Driver problem?
Are you running from eMMC or SD card?
If using eMMC can you try installing a current LE11 nightly (to use an older u-boot version) and then update to a current LE12 nightly. Same problem, or does Ethernet work now?

Running both LE11 and LE12 from SD card, can't install on the eMMC of my faulty WP2

More info, Ethernet works after updating from 11.0.6 official installed on SDcard to your testing LibreELEC-AMLGX.aarch64-11.80.0.tar.
-
Thanks, that points fingers to somethig changing in u-boot. The question is what ??
-
Are these self booting?
