Known Issues
Problem using variscite-rproc-u-boot with versions earlier than v2.0: the Device Tree is set incorrectly, causing Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to fail. Fixed by:
Access point not working on Laird LWB5 chipset Fixed by:
802.15.4 / Openthread is not working on IW612 chipset Fixed by:
meta-qt6 and meta-browser both provide gn-native, breaking the SDK generation for fsl-image-qt6 To fix it add the line BBMASK += "/meta-browser/meta-chromium/recipes-browser/chromium/gn-native_.*\.bb" in the local.conf
Note: fsl-image-chromium will no longer build.
