The #PinePhone modem (yes, the modem) can now run Linux kernel 5.10 ( @postmarketOS )... we're sure many of you know where this is heading :)
Massive thanks to biktorgj, konradybcio and others.
@feld @PINE64 @postmarketOS The mobile network communication part already runs on a DSP core inside the modem, this is linux 5.10 running on the application processor in the modem that's responsible for passing along the data and providing the configuration interface. Normally this runs some 3.x kernel.
@martijnbraam @feld @PINE64 @postmarketOS How near is that 5.10 kernel to mainline?
@Alexmitter @feld @PINE64 @postmarketOS it's 17 commits ahead, of 5.10, it's not huge.
@martijnbraam @feld @PINE64 @postmarketOS Where is the repo?
@Alexmitter @feld @PINE64 @postmarketOS ah it's at 19 commits currently: https://github.com/SoMainline/linux/tree/konrad/pinemodem
