Cloning the source of the kernel for the L11

The subject says it all: from where I could git clone the L11 kernel sources? Thanks

Thanks, @dos . But I think we bricked the L11. It booted fine but it does not charge anymore and the battery now is empty :frowning:

I don’t know much about L11, but I don’t think it depends on software for charging. It’s not a PD complaint device though, it requires a power supply that provides 12V which is optional in the spec, so make sure you use a charger that actually does provide it - checking the wattage alone is not enough.

Thanks. I have used the chargers from my L5 devices, saying also 12V but I only see 9V when measuring. Can someone please post a photo of the original L11 charger to find it here in my dust. Thanks.

Not exactly what you asked for but maybe the following is some help: Power - Purism user documentation

and: Power Adapter Type-C 65W – Purism

Thanks for the pictures. My son found it and it charges!

The L11 has its own keyboard which can be folded away. This also isn’t working (yet), but the system “sees” it: when the L11 is attached to the row of pins on the keyboard some icon in the status bar shows up and goes away on detach.

Thanks, @dos
I cloned it and looked into it with

git clone https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/linux.git
find linux/* -name '*.c'
linux/debian/rules.d/tools/objtool/objtool.c
linux/debian/rules.d/scripts/mod/modpost.c

This can’t be a full tree of kernel sources, only patches and add-ons, as far as I can see.

Debian says:

sudo apt-get install linux-source-4.3
tar xzf linux-4.3.tar.xz

@dos , do you have any hint for me which driver source is controlling this display+touscreen? Thanks

It contains everything needed to construct the Debian package out of the upstream tarball as available at kernel.org

That certainly doesn’t look right, 4.3 is a version from 2015.

Yes. 4.3 came from Debian documentation. Thanks for your hint and I will start from

hoping that it will pull in the correct tar file from kernel.org

@dos , after cloning the above repository, how do I proceed? The Debian mailing list again points to download some tar file and start from this. I’m somewhat lost in a circle.
