Turing RK1 Development Resources

08/21/2023, 12:06 AMHello I have been working on a number of RK3588 boards and would like to inquire about the RK1 to gather more information. Such as where development resources / firmware are or how I might be able to access it, from my understanding it's open source?
I have attempted to reach out to Turing multiple times via email and their help page but have not received any response. Does anyone know of any proper contact information so I may inquire further?

08/21/2023, 12:17 AMIf nothing else, Linux is GPL-licensed, so getting your hands on a binary (e.g. by extracting it from a real RK1) will legally entitle you to the corresponding source code. So probably TMs will post the code in a GitHub repo shortly before the RK1s begin shipping to comply with the GPL.

08/21/2023, 12:42 AMThis is very true. I primarily want to evaluate what needs to be done. I have a popular Ubuntu 22.04 project that supports approximately 10 RK3588 boards. I can easily create images if I had access to the hardware and a device tree. The RK1 seems interesting but I need more information before I dump my time and money into it.

The firmware is going to be public once it's ready. @abrahamrhoffman is working on it. He's working on Ubuntu 22.04.
Other board information will be released n the near future too.
As for
I have attempted to reach out to Turing multiple timess

08/21/2023, 1:35 AMRight, sorry for all the questions. I'm extremely skeptical of the sources because of the 5.15 LTS kernel advertised.

08/21/2023, 1:37 AMI checked the ticket history by the email you provided and there are 4 threads.
- one is solved by you replying that the bot answered your question
- one was left unanswered after the last bot's question
- two were directed to a person and Paula replied to never hear back
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

08/21/2023, 1:39 AMYou absolutely do not have to apologize for the questions 😄
The 5.15 kernel is, I could say, what provides all the features. I guess you are aware of the mainline kernel support for RK3588 and how much is still missing.

08/21/2023, 1:45 AMI wonder how it compares to the 5.10 and 6.1 bsp. Yeah, I have been working recently on mainline for a few different rk3588 boards. I think 6.6 will be perfect for the RK1 when PCIe support is added.

08/21/2023, 1:46 AMYeah, but then the GPU, display and cpufreq are still missing
DhanOS
08/21/2023, 1:47 AMThe first 2 maybe not this important, but cpufreq is rather important IMO

08/21/2023, 1:47 AMThere is an experimental 6.5-rc2 branch from Mesa. We can get HDMI output but I have not looked to much into the GPU side of things

08/21/2023, 1:47 AMI'm also not sure about the M.2 status
