Hello, On this device with bookworm, I have from time to time black squares on firefox-esr page rendering kernel : 6.1.51 firefox : 115.11.0esr
Is this a known issue ?

Shall I built it myself or is there a version available for download ?
the kernel link is https://github.com/hexdump0815/linux-mainline-mediatek-mt81xx-kernel/releases/download/6.6.9-stb-mt8%2B/6.6.9-stb-mt8+.tar.gz
You have to extract the gzip archive, copy the files to their respective locations then dd the file ending in .kpart to the 1st and 2nd partitions of the root disk (ex. /dev/mmcblk0, /dev/sda, etc.)

Thanks @aneeshlingala
I installed the newer kernel by following the installing-a-newer-kernel guide.
In your comment, you are saying that the dd copy shall be done on the 1st and 2nd partitions. However the guide only mentions dd'ing into the first partition (mmcblk0p1 in my device). Booting on the new kernel seems to be ok with only one partition . Am I missing something ?
i dd to the first 2 partitions with the second partition being a backup, but dding to the first partition only is also completely fine

only first partition is required for normal booting - second partition is required for test booting which does not work with the default kernels - for more details see: https://github.com/hexdump0815/imagebuilder/blob/main/doc/test-booting-a-kernel-on-chromebooks.txt
Hello,
I tried to put my wifi card in monitor mode, that triggers a firmware crash (full dmesg here
I am on Ubuntu Jammy with linux-firmware
at 20220329.git681281e4-0ubuntu3.31
There is some new version of the binary blobs available on the kernel repository notably the sdio one
If I want to give it a try, do you know what is the best procedure to update it ?
i would suggest to first make a copy of the current version, copy the new firmware to the system (as you might end up without wifi), replace the old one and see if things still work or are better after a reboot
oh and not to forget: report here if it works or not :)
@hexdump0815 thanks for your answer.
I managed to have the WLAN.RMH.4.4.1-00174
version running. However, it also resulted in a crash when trying to put the wlan interface in monitor mode.
I guess the binary driver does not support monitor mode.
Cheers !
could be - thanks for testing
