Hacking RELEASE Painless Linux - it's Linux, but painless (Windows, Mac OS, Linux & Android)

Edit the /opt/defaultpower.sh script

much obliged !

 

[The_Baron]

Wow, that was a lot easier that I thought it would be!

 

[Mach]

I was not able to find this opt folder with the boot sh file

EDIT: nvm, found it, but i dont have permission to modify since im not the owner, that was linus said lol

`sudo nano /opt/defaultpower.sh`

 

[Mach]

`sudo nano /opt/defaultpower.sh`

then i open the file and add the :

"set-gpu-clock-profile low" ?
or it has another way to write the command in the sh file ?

 

[natinusala]

Edit the file so that it writes 03 instead of 0a in the file.

Can anybody help me?
I flashed the .img file with Etcher on my 64GB SDXC card and put my Switch into RCM with the SDcard inserted.
After starting the .bat file for windows it's successful, but my Switch just stays at a black screen.

Re-run the batch file again afterwards. It it says Smashing the stack again, let it do its thing. If it doesnt then hold power for 10 seconds and try again. It always almost always black screens so give it a few times.
On first boot it will reboot to a black screen (resizing rootfs) so thats normal.

I've tried it countless times, but it didn't work at all. It just reboots back into RCM after finishing the script.

SDXC cards are currently not supported. A kernel fix is on its way

Is there a primary repository for patches to the Switch Linux kernel? As in, a compilation of all contributions to its stability/usability? From what I've found I just see a bunch of forks of FailOverflow's kernel with a few modifications exclusive to that repository. I know some people are working on Joycon support alongside power management, and it would be nice to see these changes merged together in a single location.

 

[natinusala]

Nope, there's no primary repository for now. I will eventually make one for Lakka, so stay tuned

 

[Huntereb]

That's good, wouldn't mind a mention when something is put together. I definitely plan on making some contributions of my own as soon as I know where to start putting them.

 

[skedone]

Any chance of Kali / nethunter / pwnpad support I know all three support arm and Tegra chipset

Just use the kernel included with this project alongside a rootfs of those distributions.

 

[skedone]

Nice thanks for info why did I not spot/think that lol

@natinusala any chance of you adding the recently released Joycon drivers (If they even work) to Painless linux?

My focus is on Lakka right now. Once I make them work in Lakka I'll provide an updated kernel for Painless Linux.

Sounds great! I've been trying to keep myself from installing Linux until the Joycon drivers gets up and running. I'm really looking forward to it

Nice to hear it !, btw are you developing a software fix for the battery out of sync issue ? my switch is crazy right now
