CoreMP135 Debian image
-
@mgrouch I am no expert on the CoreMP135, but it looks like it is more of a Raspberry Pi, than an Arduino or ESP32 microcontroller without WiFi or BT.
In the link I sent you there is a LVGL demo to try.
As to porting your cool Boat app over, it would be easy to do to another ESP32 machine like Core Basic, Core2 or CoreS3, but at some point this is not an M5Stack issue, but a LVGL issue, they may have some guidance over at their GitHub repository.

@mgrouch https://github.com/m5stack/M5Stack_Linux_Libs
The Official M5Stack CoreMP135 library repository.I’d like to port my esp32 LVGL app to Linux on coremp135.
This app:https://github.com/bareboat-necessities/bbn-m5stack-tough
Are there any guides on porting?
Thanks
not directly as the CoreMP135 is too new.
The CoreMP135 runs linux and so you will need to learn how to program on a linux based computer.

Ok. I got the device and I loaded Debian image M5_CoreMP135_debian12_20240628 from
https://docs.m5stack.com/en/guide/linux/coremp135/image
It did boot.
However, upon boot it didn't resize the root partition to occupy whole SD card.
As a result I can't install anything because there is no space.I had to use fdisk to resize /root partition (#5 for me, making sure I use same starting block and preserve filesystem type, see https://askubuntu.com/questions/24027/how-can-i-resize-an-ext-root-partition-at-runtime) and then
resisz2fs command (something like resize2fs /dev/mmcblk0p5).
It would be too hard for an average user to repeat that.Also the kernel on it is very old. 5.15.118
On Raspberry Bookworm it is much newer. (6.x)There are many errors related to USB reported by dmesg.
I have powered USB HUB and keyboard is connected via it.
Keyboard works though.Is it possible for next versions to have image which would resize to SD card size?
Same way as Pi OS does?Is it possible to have have newer linux kernel? I think USB errors might be related to old version of it.
Thanks

USB errors were my fault. I plugged usb 3.0 hub into usb 2.0 port.
One more question:
What are the tty devices names of RS-485 and UART6 under /dev?
Thanks
-
@teastain here is the dev directory listing
-
What is /dev/ttySTM2 ?

ttySTM2
From what I can find, the /dev/ttystm0 2 and 3 could be UART ports

@prima said in CoreMP135 Debian image:
The mDNS service aka Zeroconf aka Avahi aka Bonjour is already enabled on the device, so if you have the client tools installed on your PC you can connect in SSH using the .local address like this:
ssh root@M5Core135.local
M5Core135 is the default hostname.
I cant get a ssh login with the latest Debian release. the default password return access denied in SSH

Finally getting around to looking at the GPIO's on the CoreMP135.
not getting far at the moment as it took all weekend to work out how to expand the OS to use the whole card then get it to install GPIOD.
