Ezinsukwini ezimbalwa ezedlule umkhiqizi welaptop uhlaka lwekhompyutha, evuna ukunikeza abasebenzisi ilungelo lokuzilungisa nokuzama ukwenza imikhiqizo yayo ibe lula ngangokunokwenzeka ukuze ihlakazwe, ithuthukiswe futhi ishintshwe izingxenye, ukukhishwa kwekhodi yomthombo kumenyezelwe yesilawuli esihlanganisiwe (EC) i-firmware esetshenziswa ku-Laptop Framework.
Umqondo oyinhloko we-Laptop Framework ukuhlinzeka ngekhono lokwakha ikhompuyutha ephathekayo ngamamojula, afana nokuthi umsebenzisi angakwazi kanjani ukuhlanganisa ideskithophu ezingxenyeni ezihlukene ezingagunyaziwe ngumkhiqizi othile.
I-Framework Laptop inga-odwa kancane futhi ihlanganiswe ngumsebenzisi kudivayisi yokugcina. Ingxenye ngayinye yedivayisi ibhalwe ngokucacile futhi isuswa kalula. Uma kunesidingo, umsebenzisi angashintsha ngokushesha noma iyiphi imojula futhi, uma kwenzeka ukuwohloka, azame ukulungisa idivayisi yakhe yedwa, esebenzisa imiyalelo namavidiyo anikezwe umenzi ngolwazi lokuhlanganisa / ukuhlakazwa, ukushintshwa kwengxenye nokulungisa.
Siyajabula ukumemezela ukuthi sikhiphe i-firmware yomthombo ovulekile Embedded Controller (EC) Ye-Laptop Framework, etholakala namuhla ku-GitHub. Lokhu kusekelwe kuphrojekthi ye-Google ye-chromium-ec, okuyi-firmware ye-EC esetshenziswa kuma-Chromebook. Sikhiphe okuhlukile kwethu ngaphansi kwelayisense ye-BSD enezigaba ezi-3 ekuvumela ukuthi uguqule, wabelane futhi uyisebenzise futhi njengoba ufisa.
Ngaphezu kokushintsha inkumbulo nokugcinwa, kungenzeka ukufaka esikhundleni se-motherboard, icala (imibala ehlukene inikezwa), ikhibhodi (imiklamo ehlukene) kanye ne-adaptha engenantambo. Ngezikhala zekhadi lokunwetshwa ngaphandle kokuqaqa ikesi, ungakwazi ukuxhuma amamojula engeziwe angu-4 nge-USB-C, USB-A, HDMI, DisplayPort, MicroSD kanye nedrayivu yesibili eya kukhompuyutha ephathekayo.
Lesi sici ivumela umsebenzisi ukuthi akhethe isethi edingekayo yezimbobo futhi ashintshe noma kunini (isibonelo, uma ingekho imbobo ye-USB eyanele, ungashintsha imojuli ye-HDMI nge-USB). Esimeni sokuphuka noma ukuthuthukiswa, ungakwazi ukuthenga ngokuhlukana izingxenye ezifana nesibonisi (13,5″ 2256×1504), ibhethri, iphedi yokuthinta, ikhamera yewebhu, ikhibhodi, ikhadi lomsindo, ikesi, ibhodi lenzwa yezigxivizo zeminwe, amahinge, njll. isikrini nezipikha. .
Ukuvula i-firmware kuzovumela abathanda ukuthi bakhe futhi bafake enye i-firmware. I-firmware ye-EmbeddedController isekela amabhodi omama we-11th Generation Intel Core i5 kanye ne-i7 processors, futhi inesibopho sokwenza imisebenzi yehadiwe esezingeni eliphansi njengokuqalwa kwe-processor ne-chipset, ukulawula ukukhanya kwe-backlight, nezinkomba, ukusebenzisana kwekhibhodi ne-touchpad, ukuphathwa kwamandla, nokuhlelwa kwe isigaba sokuqala sokuqalisa.
Ikhodi ye-firmware isuselwe ekuthuthukisweni kwephrojekthi evulekile ye-chromium-ec, lapho i-Google ithuthukisa i-firmware yamadivayisi omndeni we-Chromebook.
I-firmware ye-EC iyona ephethe ukusebenza kwezinga eliphansi ku-Framework Laptop, okuhlanganisa ukulandelana kwamandla, isixhumi esibonakalayo sekhibhodi nephedi yokuthinta, nokulawula ama-LED ohlelweni. Sicela uqaphele ukuthi ukuguqulwa kwe-firmware okungalungile kungalimaza i-motherboard yakho noma enye i-hardware, ngakho-ke sincoma ukuthi ukhanyise i-firmware elungisiwe kuphela uma uzimisele ukuzifaka engozini. Siyaqhubeka nokutshala imali ekuthuthukisweni kwe-firmware yomthombo ovulekile, ngenhloso yokushintsha enye i-firmware yobunikazi esihlangana nayo manje esikhathini esizayo.
Yezinhlelo zekusasa umsebenzi uyaqhubeka ekudaleni i-firmware evulekile yezingxenye ezisaboshelwe kukhodi yokuphathelene (isibonelo, ama-chips angenantambo).
Uchungechunge lwemihlahlandlela yesinyathelo nesinyathelo yokufaka ukusatshalaliswa kwe-Linux okufana ne-Fedora 35, Ubuntu 21.10, Manjaro 21.2.1, Mint, Arch, Debian, kanye ne-Elementary OS ziyathuthukiswa ngokusekelwe ezincomweni nasezifisweni ezithunyelwe abasebenzisi. Ukusatshalaliswa kwe-Linux okunconyiwe yi-Fedora 35, njengoba lokhu kusatshalaliswa kunikeza ukwesekwa okugcwele kwe-Laptop Framework ngaphandle kwebhokisi.
Okokugcina Uma ungathanda ukwazi okwengeziwe ngayo, ungabheka imininingwane Kulesi sixhumanisi esilandelayo.
