@george said in Cool Pi Cm5-Laptop Linux Quick Start Guide:
Use the following command to generate a deb file and then install it.
It was hard. Now it works but without wi-fi and sound
How to install mainline kernel 6.18?
@mainbord
I boot from ubuntu 24.04 hdmi and usb 2.0 works. Usbc wi-fi and lcd do not work. This image not for laptop. Latest kernel source not for laptop too.
@Momo-0 said in Cool Pi Cm5-Laptop Linux Quick Start Guide:
@mainbord for me currently only the Debian image works
Thanks, 11 debian booted. Because this is an old image.

glmark 1500 fps
sound works
Ubuntu not configured out from box - awesome
Mu laptop have a second life now
@plumlis
glmark2
stock ubuntu, linux kernel 5.1 - 2000fps (panfork ??)
debian testing, linux kernel 6.1 - 1000fps (panthor ??)
software - 150 fps (cpu ??)
With any GPU acceleration it's good.
Performance it's a second problem, first is - OpenGL ES 3.1
Good apps want open GL 4.5, example is blender or xonotic game.
@george
Thans! It is working!
sudo dmesg | grep panthor
create folder before copy
sudo cp /usr/lib/firmware/mali_csffw.bin /usr/lib/firmware/arm/mali/arch10.8/
@nathan said in 6.1 Kernel GPU firmware update:
before I switched to Linux 6.1 LTS with Panthor + newer Mesa).
Do you have mali acceleartion in OS?
After a certain update, video acceleration broke. So I decided to update to 6.1
sudo dmesg | grep panthor
create folder before copy
sudo cp /usr/lib/firmware/mali_csffw.bin /usr/lib/firmware/arm/mali/arch10.8/
Comment out some alsa related in /etc/rc.local
Then boot into system. type alsamixer in terminal. F6 to select sound card.
Use " M" key to unmute left headphone mix and right headphone mix something like that. System is slow, because there is no hardware acceleartion.
sudo systemctl disable qrtr-ns
May be you cad add laptop here
https://www.armbian.com/cool-pi-cm5/
I download it and install to laptop without kernel it boots with stock kernel 5.10 but works not perfactly.
Share please new system image with mainline kernel, i will test it on cool pi laptop.
@george
May be you can add build recipe here, it will be a good advertise 
https://github.com/manjaro-arm
Someday we will be able to use mainline kernel.
