I have supported every Particle kickstarter from the very first one and I was capital "E" excited about this one. A first class chip with GPU/NPU. I'm not sure what happened, but Particle has waited so long to actually support anything of those functions that Qualcomm has just moved on. The chipset …

This project has been an insane feat of engineering. I'm sorry to hear you are disappointed and angry, but you didn't back some off-the-shelf x86 mini PC. And Ubuntu 6.8 is not that old, I get it that you're impatiently waiting for the next release, so am I. But please give these guys some room to b…

Dude, it's crickets in here from Particle/Digi. They haven't even bothered to pop in to say that this project is dead. That's not boding well for this product at all. You're wasting your time. I've wasted tons of time, not paid but my time nontheless trying to get the TPU working for my Frigate …

They will likely just need some time to transition, which would be understandable. In the meantime, take a look at particle's repositories, it's a lovely sight to behold. p.s. I forgot to mark the two at the bottom for you. [image]

Yes I for sure agree communications can be improved upon :+1:

Time to breath :confused: . They are non existent in this board anyway, except to say " we will bring it to engineering, to we are working on a communication plan". I get it these things are hard. The problem is they are trying to now support hardware that has been mostly abandoned by the manufactur…

Hey folks, Apologies for the long periods of silence - lots of plates to juggle right now, and working to sort all of that out at the moment. Next week I'll post a broader update and plan in a dedicated post re. the Tachyon. For now though, engineering is working on a 1.2 with a rebase on the Qua…

For now though, engineering is working on a 1.2 with a rebase on the Qualcomm upstream stack with all functions working and that if anyone wants to test, please make a note and we'll send instructions. I would be keen to test this - let me know what I need to do. thanks!
