[SOLVED] slarm64 (aarch64 unofficial slackware)

Lockywolf · 12-20-2020, 06:03 AM

Not sure it is not an "everyone knows" question, but on my Raspberry PI 4B Sarpi64+slarm64 seems to only display 1Gb of RAM instead of 8Gb.

Code:

root@darkstar:/boot# free -h
              total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:          924Mi        58Mi       660Mi       0.0Ki       205Mi       850Mi
Swap:            0B          0B          0B
root@darkstar:/boot# uname -a
Linux darkstar.example.net 5.4.40-v8-aarch64 #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed May 13 16:01:06 BST 2020 aarch64 GNU/Linux

As far as I know, there were no RPi versions with 1G of RAM, so it is unlikely that I have bought a counterfeit version.
Is there some trick that reclaims the rest of the 7G from whatever is holding it? (Video card?)

UPD:Ah, my bad. /boot/config.txt had the memory=1024 line. I don't remember writing it there, but perhaps I just forgot.

Thanks, let's see.

Has anyone successfully compiled wireguard-linux-compat on slarm64?

The slackbuild works for me, but the resulting module does not load: "could not insert 'wireguard': Exec format error", although the arch seems to be the same, arm-v8.

sndwvs · 12-22-2020, 01:14 AM

which kernel and board?
this module is included in the official kernel

Lockywolf · 12-22-2020, 01:17 AM

Sarpi64 kernel, the last one. Doesn't seem to have the module.

Board is Raspberry Pi 4B

sndwvs · 12-22-2020, 01:22 AM

you have to look at mistakes.
in the kernel 5.9.12 it is enabled.

Code:

I looked at the official website, where it has 5.4.70

need logs to identify the problem.
5.9.12 is also official from Raspberry Pi

Lockywolf · 12-22-2020, 01:33 AM

I'll try the 5.9.12 first

sndwvs · 12-22-2020, 01:36 AM

don't forget to make changes in /boot/config.txt

Code:

kernel=Image

This kernel worked for me, thank you.

Lockywolf, i have updated to the latest version 5.10.2

shelldweller · 12-23-2020, 08:02 AM

I am getting this, even after running slackpkg update gpg:

Code:

You need the GPG key of slarm64 AArch64 <mara@fail.pp.ua>.
To download and install that key, run:

        # slackpkg update gpg

You can disable GPG checking too, but it is not a good idea.
To disable GPG, edit slackpkg.conf and change the value of the CHECKGPG
variable to off - you can see an example in the original slackpkg.conf.new
file distributed with slackpkg.

I can probably get it to work manually, but I thought you might like to know that something is happening with the gpg-key as is.

Thanks, the information for checking gpg has been updated, so manually first you need to install the new slackpkg.
