Some of these dongles actually work on #zeST. But:
- with an outdated stable release of Buildroot from 2024.
- with an outdated Linux kernel from 2023.

So older devices may be working, newer devices absolutely not.

So, Infix OS has been upgraded to #buildroot 2026.02 LTS well in time for our 26.03 release. We've actually been tracking it since -rc1, so this was more of a formality to rebase and rerun our regression tests. Mattias (lazzer) worked relentlessly on this, while still managing to do a ton of […]

A screenshot showing how small distroless containers are in size.

Good news. I figured out what I was missing. A distroless Unbound container built from source with #buildroot. The uncompressed image size is ~25MB.

STM32MP21 Arm Cortex-A35/M33 MPU targets cost-effective applications in smart factories, homes, and cities STMicroelectronics’ STM32MP21 microprocessor family combines a 1.5 GHz 64-bit Arm Cortex-A35 application core with a 300 MHz 32-bit Arm Cortex-M33 core for real-time processing. It is designed for “cost-aware” edge applications in smart factories, smart homes, and smart cities. The new STM32MP21 is a cost-optimized version of the earlier STM32MP23 and STM32MP25 that does without an AI accelerator (yes, those still exist!), GPU, H.264 decoder and encoder, or PCIe Gen2 / USB 3.0 interfaces. It still offers a MIPI CSI-2 camera interface, two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces with Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN), and strong security targeting SESIP Level 3 and PCI pre-certification. STM32MP21 specifications: CPU – Arm Cortex-A35 core running at up to 1.2 or 1.5 GHz with 128KB L2 cache Real-time MCU – Arm Cortex-M33 core with FPU/MPU running at up to 300 MHz GPU – None VPU – None AI accelerator – None Memory 456 KB SRAM 256KB AXI SYSRAM [...] The post STM32MP21 Arm Cortex-A35/M33 MPU targets cost-effective applications in smart factories, homes, and cities appeared first on CNX Software - Embedded Systems News.

When it comes to build systems, perhaps not that popular opinion, but IMHO CMake is still great. It's ugly as fuck but it is also useful and great :-) And I've found many unorthodox uses for it, like preparing #BuildRoot for instance:

Designing a Smart Home Control Panel with PX30 and LVGL / Qt5 on Linux Buildroot # Designing a Smart Home Control Panel with PX30 and LVGL / Qt5 on Linux Buildroot Smart home control panels demand sleek UIs, quick boot times, and reliable performance under varying lighting conditions. Pairing the **Rockchip PX30** with a **Linux Buildroot** stack — and rendering the GUI using either **LVGL** or **Qt5** — offers a flexible, cost-effective solution for modern embedded devices. 👉 Learn more about our embedded boards here: https://www.rocktech.com.hk/embedded-single-board-computers/ ## Why PX30? The Rockchip PX30 is a quad-core Cortex-A35 processor that strikes a great balance between performance and power efficiency. For smart home environments, PX30 can handle multi-touch UIs, Wi-Fi communication, and real-time device control — all without active cooling. **Key advantages:** * Quad-core Cortex-A35 @ 1.3 GHz * Mali-G31 GPU (OpenGL ES 2.0/3.2) * Dual-channel MIPI-DSI (for TFT panels) * PCIe/SDIO support for 2.4GHz & 5GHz Wi-Fi * Excellent Linux and Buildroot support We typically match PX30 with a **7" or 10.1" sunlight-readable TFT** and a capacitive touch panel — ideal for kitchen walls, living rooms, or smart entry panels. More on our PX30 board: 👉 https://www.rocktech.com.hk/rockchip-px30-sbc/ ## LVGL vs Qt5: Embedded GUI Options Feature | LVGL | Qt5 ---|---|--- Language | C | C++ / QML Rendering | Software + optional G2D | Hardware-accelerated (OpenGL) RAM footprint | <10MB | ~100MB+ UI tools | SquareLine, LVGL Designer | Qt Designer, QML Ideal for | Simple dashboards | Multi-page animated UIs ### Our recommendation: * Use **LVGL** for lightweight, single-screen interfaces. * Choose **Qt5** if you need scene transitions, animations, or a rich modern UI. Both frameworks work reliably on PX30 with Buildroot. Qt5 benefits from GPU acceleration via EGLFS, while LVGL can run even on software-rendered framebuffer. ## Wi-Fi and Cloud Connectivity PX30 supports both 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi via PCIe or SDIO modules. In our tests, Realtek PCIe modules work well with `wpa_supplicant`. With that in place, it’s easy to integrate: * MQTT or WebSocket * OTA updates * Home Assistant or Matter bridges * Local LAN dashboards For custom SBC solutions with dual-band Wi-Fi: 👉 https://www.rocktech.com.hk/custom-sbc-solutions/ ## Real-World Example: Smart Wall Panel We recently deployed a PX30-based smart panel with these features: * Touch UI with Qt5 at 60fps * Wi-Fi OTA + MQTT device control * Ambient light + air quality data * 1000+ nits high-brightness IPS screen * 8s boot time to GUI using Buildroot The system handles user interactions smoothly and works reliably in both indoor and sunlight conditions. Thanks to the compact rootfs (~300MB), it fits comfortably on eMMC. ## Final Thoughts PX30 with Buildroot and Qt5 or LVGL offers an elegant embedded solution for modern smart home hubs. The combination of full control, efficient performance, and flexible display options makes it a go-to choice for OEMs building custom control panels. 📩 Want to test a PX30 SBC or a high-brightness TFT touch solution?
