It bricked again thanks to opensource free bug-fix :enraged_face: , however this time i know why is bricked, and why was bricked before so it will much easier to revive.

So this time i want to unbrick my Librem 5 via Nokia N900 than Qemu or even i can use it other Gcrimson into same L5. Yeah very funny.

I spended 3 hours troubleshooting to unbrick my unique L5 and no success. .the only left try is by using is -c on initramfs. Crimson osk on mesa is meh. I know mario bross know the trick to unbrick.

I miss etnaviv and L5.

What about making a separate forum thread about this problem? Maybe you could describe there how your Librem 5 got bricked and what you tried to recover? Having a well documented “unbricking” procedure seems useful to me.

I assume you tried this procedure: Reflashing PureOS - Purism user documentation. Where did you get stuck?

I had 2 same issue on desktop on last 2 week, which found that libgbm is misssing, so it may happen same on my bricked L5, so i will check libgbm firstly on the next unbrick time.

I really missing etnaviv, etnaviv is incredible.

I try again now to unbrick it but no success, this time i even dust-off amber and byzantium to follow keyboard roadmap developments…

I angry now. :enraged_face: hold on tight everyone, because i am going to shake everything…

I shaked everything yesterday, and no success.

The reason for amber and byzantium is because i went to the coffer to get a crimson device, but what i brought back was an amber and a byzantium… :smile:

I still have many option to recovery, one last option is to grant ssh access to mario.bross to fix all.

NEXT TIME NO MORE QEMU, TOO WEAK.
