  • What's the Gentoo derivative for Raspberry Pi called again?

    You're probably thinking of the now unmaintained https://github.com/sakaki-/gentoo-on-rpi-64bit. He took a %dayjob% that required him to stop committing to open source projects or, possibly, just
  • Raspberry Pi 4 Installation: 32 bit vs 64 bit?
    1 project | /r/Gentoo | 29 Oct 2021
    64 bit with gentoo i think is slightly less supported; but that is just from me looking around the package archive, and what it appears to be from the wiki. Though i am in the process of taking sakaki's 64 bit image and moving it over to use the official gentoo repos, so i guess i am glutton for punishment
  • How to enable /dev/dri/renderD128 on ALARM aarch64 on the Raspberry pi 4 (8 GB)?

    Last time I was looking into this, no normal 64-bit rpi distro (including alarm) supported it. There was only gentoo that somebody hacked together offering mmal interface for h/w codecs: https://github.com/sakaki-/gentoo-on-rpi-64bit

    You can build a binary distro based on Gentoo, e.g. https://github.com/sakaki-/gentoo-on-rpi-64bit (sadly EOL'ed several months ago).

    Anyway, from my own experience, the video decoding performance of gentoo-on-rpi-64bit was somehow nowhere close to LibreELEC, on the same hardware. Perhaps there is a lesson to be learnt there...

    This is very encouraging—I'm doing the same thing eventually on my Surface Pro (2017 model). Right now, I've just got it on a raspberry pi 4B 8GB. It works amazingly there, but I'm using a binary-heavy overlay and dwm. Firefox works better than I expected, but I haven't bothered with sound much, so I don't watch any video or anything. Also, the image I use (I use the “lite” variant available there) comes with an easy-to-use update tool (“genup”). At the very least, I consider it a great way to get acquainted with a significant portion of the Gentoo experience.

    The SteamLink itself is quite underpowered, it can not do much standalone. It can still do something! Valve does offer an SDK but does not officially support other apps (AFAIK). So it is up to 3rd parties to port things to SteamLink (or make apps from scratch). For a console-gaming type person installing other apps might be difficult, and there aren't that many apps.
