but sorry, let me understand, the whole procedure you posted on Wiki, is useful if I have not misunderstood, when you personalize yourself and you compile the Kernel from you, while having this ready, theoretically you don't have to do all those passages anymore, but after executing the 2 commands from petit boot to disable quick recovery, download and then install the kernel with the 2 commands you posted right or not? Let me understand why as I repeat I experience zero on Linux and unfortunately I'm not a programmer so I have more difficulty understanding but I would like to learn something slowly thanks to Linux ...

Meklort you have not answered, I wanted to understand this thing well because it is not clear to me not being a programmer as you are. After installing the development tools, can I go ahead and continue the procedure by copying it from the guide, or do I have to go to the Kernel creation link? Because there is my problem because it is difficult for me to do it ... Let me understand ...

sorry but after installing the development tools, you have to do everything that the custom kernel compile link reports ?? It seems to me very complex for someone like me ... I don't think I can compile it I don't understand anything unfortunately ... you can't have one already compiled?

they are quite a few steps and it won't be easy since I'm still a beginner on Linux, I'll try to perform the whole procedure and if I encounter difficulties I'll let you know ... thanks a lot

Legacy POWER Hardware / Re: Old stuff survey

« on: December 09, 2019, 05:07:04 pm »

I have a second-hand IMac G5 in 2007, unfortunately recently it failed and I can't use it anymore and put it aside. The Amiga x 1000 are based on Pa-semi which was then bought by Apple and did not produce more Power derivative processors but what is mounted on the X1000 is however a Power derivative. The most recent X 5000 has the Freescale P5020 or P 5040 but without Altivec and they are based on Power 8 if I remember correctly ...

Hi guys, AMD support replied telling me that 1, they don't support Fedora but the systems they currently support are: Ubuntu 18.04.3
RedHat Enterprise Linux 8.0
RedHat Enterprise Linux 7.6
CentOS 8.0
CentOS 7.6
SLED / SLES 15 SP1
As far as support for the Power architecture is concerned, they do not even know what they are talking about, contacting the producers to understand which Hardware to use ...! All this in Italy in any case, I don't know in America, but this is the current situation in Italy. I told him that someone is already working to bring the drivers in the Power version and I told him that in any case the first drivers they released are not good and therefore to work to improve them. I finally tried to explain to them what Power is but I doubt they immediately understand what I'm talking about ...

I hope in you at this point ...

Ok Meclort thank you, I don't know how do you get Fedora 32 since the 31 was released only now but you're at an advanced level so I don't ask for anything hahaha. A special thank you, of course, to the great Tim who took care of writing this beautiful code, after this, I have another card to activate and I will have to open another treed and see if we can do the same with that and I'm sure you will succeed, meanwhile I wait patiently for the procedures ... you are great anyway!

wow you are the reviewer of Talospace it's a pleasure to have you here and meet you. In this forum you have the chance to get to know the best Power exponents and all this is fantastic! I asked to give me a hand because I own the Radeon 5700 XT and the guys are giving me a great hand, even the great Tim Pearson himself committed himself and I am immensely grateful to him! I read that Phorinix also learned the news, it went around quickly, great! They are testing the work done, they already work tell me how you can read above, as soon as they finish the tests they will tell me how to activate this beautiful GPU ...

guys I just read on Talospace that Navi 10 support for Power is coming, apparently I'm already aware of the excellent work you're doing and have already published it ...! Great!

You're giving me good news, thanks a lot to you and Madscientist159 for the work you're doing, you're great! Meanwhile I am exchanging emails with AMD support to inform them about the situation, we hope that they will also move directly ... Monday they will tell me I hope something more ... Let me know then when everything will be ready and what I'll have to do ... Thanks again!

« on: December 06, 2019, 06:06:06 pm »

I remember that Raptor told me that to change resolution it is necessary to enter the BMC, I don't know however if you f even change that of the petitboot but in any case I believe it is not necessary since the petitboot only serves occasionally and does not have to manage graphics so it's fine too what I think ...

I wrote to AMD support, I told them everything, let's see what they answer ... I also said that the drivers currently have problems and that they need to be reviewed, I also said if it would be possible to receive direct support for Power from them, since the OperPower community they almost only buy their cards ... It will be difficult but I try
