Re: Oled switch chipset support

[Ivan Ivanov]

Well, there's really a coreboot for Nintendo Switch and that's not a
"spam". So, let's discuss the possibility of coreboot for the newer
hardware revisions of Nintendo Switch. At the coreboot repo, I see
"./coreboot/src/soc/nvidia/tegra210" - so there's a coreboot for tegra210
(don't know its quality though) and I think that coreboot is possible for
"Oled switch" based on t210bo1 chipset (if that's the same as tegra210).
Meanwhile, the possibility of coreboot for tegra214 depends on the
similarity of t210 vs t214 and may be more complicated. Please clarify me
if I'm wrong or you have something to add

P.S. It a bit puzzles me why the people fork a coreboot behind the scenes
and don't even try to upstream their fork. If I knew there's a coreboot for
switch, I'd have been more likely to buy it (although it's a crappy Nvidia
known for its' hate towards the opensource, so...)
