I'm really confused by the world of #RISCV, it looks like the instruction set keeps changing and it's hard to know which machine supports which instruction set.

To put it simply: #Ubuntu is dropping support for RVA20, presumably to move to RVA22 instead. The problem is, the only RVA22 board I can seem to find (Milk-V Jupiter) isn't supported by Ubuntu.

The #EclipseFdn is hiring an HW Verification Engineer for its OpenHW Foundation. Working as a member of the Eclipse Research Team, the candidate will work to verify industrial-grade #opensource IPs based on #RISCV.

New PCBs from #jlcpcb . First time doing hot plate soldering, only had to fix one solder bridge! so much easier than using an iron on these 0.5mm pin pitch parts.

Of course it doesn't work I got the connector pins backwards... Luckily they make a reversed connector so these boards don't go into trash, just have to wait for new parts!

#wennIchZeitHätte würde ich ja gerne mal nen Haufen recht minimale #riscv cores 2-3 Dimensional anordnen & auf die Kanten schnelle Dual Port RAM packen ... In der Praxis vermutlich ne 2-D FPGA Matrix in die das sinnvoll rein synthetisiert ist. Also so ein bischen wie die #transputer... Ohne konkretes Ziel einfach um dann den Design Space zu erforschen.... Ok doch ein Design Ziel wäre das sich Software dafür aus ner dependently typed Sprache sinnvoll erzeugen lässt :) ... Wenn ich Zeit hätte.

Yay, finally all the pieces have come together and I have finally been able to compile Qt 6.9 and @kde Plasma development version (what is to be released as 6.4 in June) for my @bananapi BPI-F3, a RISC-V single-board (mini) computer. Plasma does start and run, but looks like QML/QtQuick applications (which includes the desktop itself) have rendering problems Qt Widget apps render/run just fine. Now to figure out where the problem is…

RISC-V as a #demoscene platform is becoming reality.
Here is Kaleidoscopico, a demo running on #raspberrypi Pico 2, presented at Revision Party last weekend.

I have the most important part of my RISC-V emulator done: I’ve picked a silly but apt name.

Speaking of #RISCV; watch this! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KhhLoVBpg48 A demo for the #raspberrypi #pico2 -- all video and sound generation is being done on the chip! #demoscene

Banana Pi BPI-RV2 is a $35 RISC-V gateway board for networking applications

The Banana Pi BPI-RV2 is a single-board computer designed for networking applications with a 2.5 GbE WAN port, five Gigabit LAN ports, and M.2 and Mini PCIe slots that can be used for SSDs, wireless modules, and other add-ons.

The board is powered by a 1.25 GHz Siflower SF21H8898 quad-core RISC-V processor and runs open source software – Banana Pi offers an version of the open source, […]

#RISCV 2025 update

Thanks to some help by davidlt and @neil I was able to get @fedora #CoreOS built for #RISCV. This is definitely one of the first ever CoreOS boots of RISCV:

"Today, every #nvidia chipset contains between 10 and 40 embedded #RISCV cores" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9s8hPmCZ0mk

So #NVIDIA has sold a billion #RISCV CPUs in its products , but it seems that costs have not decreased. I hope someone will compete with them as soon as possible.
