  2. After way too many attempts, I finally got a custom GRUB2 EFI bootloader built with Buildroot showing a splash image at boot on real hardware 🎉

    The secret? insmod gfxterm_background + font in the right path.

    Simple in theory, painful in practice 🤕

  3. What did KDAB work on in February? As Embedded World 2026 approaches, this edition highlights #embedded-focused insights like GUI automation with Spix, Windows CE to #EmbeddedLinux migration, the Oxidize 2026 CfP, and more: kdab.com/newsletter/february-2 #QtDev #QML #RustLang

  4. ICYMI 👉 With openwrt-one-debian, you can now run a full Debian system on the OpenWrt One using its NVMe storage, unlocking custom services, containers, development tools, and lightweight server workloads on open hardware! 🚀

  6. On i.MX8MP, GPIOs are owned by Linux (A53) by default.
    If the Cortex-M7 needs them—especially for interrupts—you must release them in the device tree:

    • Remove pinmux
    • Remove GPIO references
    • Disable the GPIO controller if needed

    This prevents A53/M7 resource conflicts and ensures real-time reliability.

  7. Flashing Linux images on RK3568 made simple ⚙️
    This guide shows how to flash boot.img & rootfs.img via TFTP + U-Boot on the Forlinx RK3568 dev board.

    ✔️ Fast network flashing
    ✔️ Clear eMMC partitioning
    ✔️ Industrial-grade reliability
    ✔️ Ready for AI & edge apps

  8. 🚀 Rock-solid Real-Time performance on Raspberry Pi 4!

    Just stress-tested via SSH a custom #Buildroot (Kernel 6.12.61-v8 #PREEMPT_RT). Even with a massive memory hog running (stress-ng --vm 2 --vm-bytes 1G), the results are insane:

    🔹 Avg Latency: 14µs
    🔹 Max Latency: 42µs
    🔹 Jitter: Virtually zero

    This #RPi4 is now a deterministic beast. 🐧🛠️ 64-bit RT Linux at its best!

  9. Success! 🎉 Just finished building a custom Linux OS for my Raspberry Pi 4 using #Buildroot (raspberrypi4_64_defconfig).

    SSH access is fully configured, network is up, and I'm connected remotely! This minimalist embedded system is flying. Time to start the real customization. 🚀
