Hello brother, thank you very much for this work.My question is is there PS4 pro vulkan freezing problem

BigBankBailey

DF_AUS does the bz image include hippies partition fix and work for Aeolia devices? Can you also make an overclocked version please? I use the highest one possible.

Bilaldz

DF_AUS can i copy my games files from my current distro? I don't want to go through the downloading prosses again

OmaeWaMouShindeiru

DF_AUS How did you get the snapstore and the fedy store to work i tried to do it on fedora 37 and it didn't work ?

misfit-mischief

DF_AUS Hey bud, you got a link to the source for the baikal (5.4.247 / 5.4.99) kernels?

OmaeWaMouShindeiru

DF_AUS How do i fix the pixelated graphical issue on this distro ?

Bilaldz

DF_AUS please man , i have a problem ,when installing it for the first time it boots normally but when trying to boot again a get a black screen after the rescueshell ,no matter how much i waited for it to boot , i have tried refreshing the hdmi and pressing CTRL+ALT+F2 then F1 and its still the same ,any help i'll appreciate it.

Rayeed

DF_AUS please make a installation tutorial

JustGuardian

DF_AUS I get a black screen after I run exec resume-boot after the installation. I am using Belize 5.15.15 Saya v.2.6 and I tried with hdcp and without it. Same result. I get a black screen but if I press ctrl+alt+2 etc I get a working shell with the different tty.

noob404

Good work!

misfit-mischief

arif02 Looking through the info posted it looks like it should work fine on pro.

DF_AUS

arif02 No probs 👌
No, there should be no issue with vulkan and mesa, someone tested on a pro console before i made the distro public and reported no issues, the current mesa installed is 22.1.0-devel patched by Zerobou.

EhshanAmin

DF_AUS I am on slim model... Is there a way to upgrade mesa 23 while using this distro or it will brick...
And is it good to upgrade or mesa 22.1 is good enough to play games?

DF_AUS

I should of also listed some of the addons enabled in my baikal bzimage.

-Modify ldt
-UFS read/write
-Apple/Android usb tether
-High Speed mobile devices
-Exfat support
-SQUASHFS/snapd support
-Android drivers
-TUN/TAP VPN support

Few other addons are enabled that i cannot remember

EhshanAmin

DF_AUS Those fedora distributions take too long to get to main screen when booting up

Zabovis

Looks good man. I might try installing this internally at some point. Hope things are well.

DF_AUS

Zabovis Thank you buddy 😊 hope all goes well for you 👌

x2mory

I can't install
How can I solve the problem?
(not enough space in ram available)

DF_AUS

x2mory

x2mory Use the 1GB Payload for fresh installation, which should grant you more ram.

arif02

x2mory
Installation Start Start with 1Gv if I don't the installation screen will not be active I installed PS4 pro without any problem

OmaeWaMouShindeiru

x2mory Do i have to update the distro with the command "sudo dnf update -x kernel,mesa,libdrm*,xorg-x11-drv-a" or not ?

DF_AUS

BigBankBailey I think you are referring to the initramfs file, not the bzimage.
I think it was psita team who added hippies patches to their initramfs file.
The bzimage (kernel) i linked via this thread is for Baikal Southbridges only, you will have to use your Aeolia kernel to install the distro though.

DF_AUS
I use the 1GB Payload for fresh installation But it stops installing and gives me the error
(not enough space in ram available)

BigBankBailey

DF_AUS thank you so much for your hard work! Only problem I have is YouTube videos aren't playing and the snap store says zero bytes and won't open.

DF_AUS

BigBankBailey
Youtube videos are confirmed working with either browser.
The Snap Store issue appears that the kernel (bzimage) you are using does not have the necessary (if any) addons required for snapd/flatpak support.
