Another issue is, that I don’t have a Toshiba Mini Click myself, so I need to build the test Volumio images (volumio.org) with the different 5.16-rc kernel patch versions for a colleague to work with, hopefully he has time to do this.

I have just dug my own Toshiba Mini Click up from the bottom of the storage box it was in.

It is currently charging since the battery was fully flat.

So I suggest you give me a couple of days to take a look before you go to all this trouble.

Regards,

Hans
