I have a tablet with an Alwinner A31 SoC and PowerVR graphics accelerator, how feasable is running Linux on this tablet?
<KotCzarny>
a little.
<KotCzarny>
sell it, buy a33
<KotCzarny>
same price, better support
<minicom>
I got it for free, I just wanted to play with it :P
<minicom>
I'll just leave Android on it, then
<KotCzarny>
wise decision
<DonkeyHotei>
A33 is not really supported, either
<wens>
the lcd on my a33 q8 tablet is breaking down :/
<KotCzarny>
DonkeyHotei: pvr will never be supported in linux

Hey guys, I am having trouble getting i2c working with kernel 4.14.111 and my nanopi-neo-core2. I am not sure how to get /dev/i2c to show up
<aduskett>
Anybody have any experience with this?

But okay, since PowerVR is not supported by any FOSS drivers, is it supported in Linux because it works on Android right? Could these blobs be used in another installation?
<minicom>
You can't use any mainline kernel then

aduskett: /dev/i2c depends on the i2c-dev kernel module
<lurchi_>
you only need that for userspace access to i2c devices
<aduskett>
lurchi_, yeah, it was enabled. I ended up yanking the latest armbian kernel, which seems to have fixed the issue
