I have a very important request. We are preparing for a big update that will improve compatibility with BIOS and UEFI on many devices, and I need as many people as possible to check out the new build of the kernel and core packages.

How to test:
|
|
|
|
1. Switch filesystem to RW-mode using the `rw` command.
|
|
2. Open the `/etc/pacman.conf` file for editing and go to its end.
|
|
3. Change the repository URL like this (add testing component path): `Server = https://pikvm.org/repos/testing/rpi4-arm`. Don't change the last component (`rpi4-arm`, `zerow-arm`, etc).
|
|
4. Run `pacman -Syu && reboot`
|
|
|
|
Please make sure that everything works as usual, I mean video and USB. I am particularly interested in the CSI bridge.
