Does any #OpenBSD arm64 wizard know how to let simplefb know to use the higher resolution on a Lenovo ThinkPad T14S G6 (Snapdragon X1E) with the 2880 x 1800 option?
My eyes would be most grateful…

Nov 6, 2026, 12:47 PM@cynicalsecurity Unfortunately I don't think "machine gop" has been ported to arm64 efiboot, or if it even works there, EFI firmware has historically been pretty anemic on ARM machines.

@brynet yes, I hoped to do precisely that and did not work… the anaemic EFI is clearly the cause, I was just hoping for a magical fix.
Nov 6, 2026, 12:51 PM@cynicalsecurity Well, the UEFI firmware on Snapdragon might be more featureful then u-boot's EFI app support, so might be worth trying to port "machine gop" anyway. :flan_thumbs:
@brynet nope… sadly, that is what had hoped.
Nov 6, 2026, 1:36 PM@cynicalsecurity Ah, bummer. Frustratingly the Linux drm/msm Adreno code is all GPL-2.0-only.. :flan_tired:
@brynet yes :flan_sad:
It is so frustrating and ridiculous how EFI was meant to “fix things” and we ended up with half-arsed semi-implemented systems.
