Please add MT8183C support

krome-3k opened this issue 3 years ago · 44 comments

Hi,
Can you please add support for the MT8183C SoC? Its used in a few recent chromebooks like mine (Acer Spin 311). Is it possible to build from source in ubuntu chroot on my device for my device?
Thanks in advance.

Answer 8 · 2021-08-31T13:29:32.000Z

there is support for the soc you want to run it on

Answer 9 · 2021-08-31T13:33:22.000Z

but im not sure if it supports the hardware and the code name isn't the same

I installed ubuntu chroot using crouton but only xenial is stable. Will that do?

My device is juniper. I am sure i have to build it from source. Can AMD64 build programs for ARM64? I only have this device and raspberry pi4 with ARM64 processors and one i7 X64.

Isnt it always better to build from source?

Answer 16 · 2021-08-31T14:28:51.000Z

i think they might have to add your baseboard

umm.... this is literally same chip as mt8183.

Answer 38 · 2021-09-02T13:11:47.000Z

You probably just need to modify the kernel.its to include your dts.

Answer 39 · 2021-09-02T15:45:23.000Z

Yes, 8183c is for chromebooks and 8183 is for tablets. Does cadmium support it?

Answer 40 · 2021-09-02T15:45:55.000Z
