Hello together,

I don't see any progress in the development / extension of functions in the public repos. Where can I find the active repos where development is ongoing ?

Best regards Damian

I understand your eagerness towards the VF2. It's very exciting. I am as well. Possibly holidays in China as you know New Year just passed. I noticed you're a Fedora user as well on your github/fosstodon profile.

Like yourself, I tried to get a built image from ubuntu 22.04 but NOPE failed. Since you're a fedora user, I'll share that I tried to get a built image from a fedora silverblue 37 podman container running ubuntu 20.04 but NOPE failed there too. Steps I did are here: https://pastebin.com/hDSK5SC2

I'm looking forward to a Fedora 37 image for VF2. There's one for Hifive Unmatched. You might want to check out libera chat irc fedora-riscv. Others want a VF2 image there as well.

I just became aware of wefu at redhat also wanting fedora 37 on VF2. "Linux on RISC-V — software ecosystem update | Wei Fu | Red Hat Software (Beijing) Co.,Ltd." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=it12BLBn-9Q&t=1062s

Mr. Kimua in Japan is working hard on the GPU driver for VF2 as well. "VisionFive 2 - 3D GPU を統合した世界初の高性能 RISC-V SBC | 木村 優之 Masayuki Kimura / StarFive Technology" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGp6F2X-sl0

I'm not a shareholder or official developer for VF2. I'm just a fan/user like yourself trying to build and get ready for the VF2 before it arrives in the mail someday. If you want to share your failures and successes, please do at libera chat irc fedora-riscv since that log gets archived for everybody to see. I'm attempting to share my hurdles there as well. My hope is other experts will be able to answer to my hurdles and nudge me in the right direction from there.
