Hello. I use Retrorange Pi on Orange pi pc+ and the kernel includes a uinput module for implementing console utility management from the gamepad. Unfortunately, in this 5.3.0-dev-rc8 core, the CPU temperature information does not work. I switched kernel to 5.4.20-current via armbian-config. In this kernel, the cpu temp readings work, but unfortunately, there is no uinput in the modules. Can I somehow build this module separately for 5.4.20-current without recompiling the entire kernel? Or is it possible for respected developers to re-enable the module in future kernel releases? With best regards, Sergey

It is build with armbian tools and its similar, but different enough that we don't support it.

If you need some modules, you can enable them. Your contribution will be accepted in case it doesn't break anything, but we have no resources to do this instead of you.

I suggest to copy configuration from debian kernel, this will not miss some common features for desktop users.

PR commited

 

And merged. The module should be available in new nightly images on legacy, current and dev.
