@lupyuen @RIOT_OS A first version has been released now at <github.com/bouffalolab/bl_iot_>.

As feared it is just a header file and compiled blob. On the upside, the Apache license applies, so decompilation may be fair game for reverse engineering.

That should make a nutcracker challenge v2 doable -- but frankly, I rather stick with vendors that publish documentation or at least commented source.

To run a / BL604 Regression Test with GPIO, ADC, SPI, SX1262, LoRa, LoRaWAN and The Things Network ... Just run this firmware

@swiley Do you have your fvwmrc posted somewhere? I've been on-and-off working on a mobile-focused Fvwm2 config and it's pretty neat to see that I'm not the first person with the idea

@herag @lupyuen

@skadi
It's my normal desktop fvwmrc with just one or two changes. I don't think it's posted anywhere, I should ask my boss if I can publish all my PinePhone stuff but I haven't gotten around to it.

@herag I use it with unit scaling. My fvwmrc has normal window commands (move resize iconify close etc.) in the root menu so you don't have to touch the controls precisely if you don't want to. On the menus you can just "roll" your thumb and the different selections get highlighted.
I also make XVKBD sticky and without a title bar like the iconbox.
Most X11 things really function very well with unit scaling. The only thing you really miss is mouse buttons 2/3 (so no quick selection buffer pasting etc.)
@lupyuen

@swiley
You are running FVWM on pinephone? How well does it function? I didn't realize that it would scale down properly for a phone screen.
@lupyuen

@herag
I flipflop between FVWM and FluxBox personally. SXMO does a poor job of maximizing the screen real estate.

Postmarket for me.

Switched to Mobian for a while, but I'm a lot more comfortable with Alpine style computing. Also...... #sxmo rocks
