It should be the same as required in Raspbian. Have you checked the details in /boot/efi/overlays/README? Out of interest what do you use /dev/vchiq / vcgencmd for? > Is there any way to get both the RTC and vcgencmd to work? Which device tree > would I choose?

You don't need a custom kernel but you'd need to build your own DT as obviously anything that is not default on the RPi devices themselves is optional hence the requirement of overlays. _______________________________________________ arm mailing list -- arm@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to arm-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/arm@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
