  We'll be at FOSDEM 2020
Posted by: Luke - 11-21-2019, 06:42 AM - Forum: News - Replies (6)

Hi all,

We'll be at FOSDEM 2020.

On Sunday (Feb 2nd) we'll have a stall - you are welcome to come by or even to co-run it. In the previous years we were in building AW.

Regarding Saturday: I'm not the sort of person who fights their way into the different talks - I'm ok to watch what I'm interested in online a couple of months later. So, for those who want to walk around, stalk KDE and Manjaro people, etc., I'll be around if you just want to hang-out.


  Network Manager on Deb
Posted by: Atton - 11-21-2019, 04:56 AM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (5)

Just to ask is there a package for the network manager that adds support for VPN's like L2TP and others like that?


  Nextcloudpi SD card fills up.
Posted by: default_user8 - 11-20-2019, 11:13 PM - Forum: Linux on Rock64 - Replies (13)

This is the second time i've had this issue running nextcloudpi on my rock64.  It runs fine for about a month and then my SD card shows that it's full and I have no room left.  This prevents my nextcloud server from running correctly and I can't connect.


Lightbulb Wine on Pinebook Pro

Created Stretch evironment with `qemu-debootstrap` (Buster seems to have a bug with QEMU), ran with qemu-i386-static , entered chroot with `schroot` and installed Wine. This will only work on aarch64 / ARM64 kernels.

  Enable KVM on default OS (Debian 9)
Posted by: colemancda - 11-20-2019, 05:58 PM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (7)

Hi, I just received my PineBook Pro yesterday and I am using the default OS with Debian 9 (32bit user space, 64bit kernel). I would like to recompile the kernel to enable the KVM module. I want to test containers and possibly Windows 10 on ARM. I have seen the images on the wiki, but I am not sure where the sources are to build an image myself, although ideally I just want to update the kernel on my existing OS. Since there are so many repos and distros for the PineBook Pro, I am not sure where to start. I don't want to lose all the great driver support, like the Mali drivers, I am hoping someone could share simple instructions to clone the repo of the kernel, build a .deb and install a kernel upgrade. Or in any case, this could possibly be a feature request for @Mrfixit2001  or @ayufan to include in the official image?


  Is it possible to replace LCD panel?
Posted by: plumlis - 11-20-2019, 04:34 PM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - Replies (14)

The Panel built in color looks washed out. I don't know what's panel does it has.
So is it possible to replace with a better one?


  new rockpro64: images won't boot [solved]
Posted by: new-rockpro-user - 11-20-2019, 12:42 PM - Forum: Linux on RockPro64 - No Replies

Bought a new RockPro64, downloaded some linux images, flashed them to eMMC: no boot.
The white light goes on, stays on for a while, goes off for half a second, goes on again for a while, repeat.
No HDMI output.

OK, turns out: new RockPro64's come without a uboot, or with a seriously old uboot.

What does boot, is ayufan's images:
https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/linux-b...tag/0.9.14
Download for example the
bionic-mate-rockpro64-0.9.14-1159-armhf.img.xz

That should work. It takes a while to load, first run, but it does work.
Boot from there.

From Ayufan's bionic Mate there you can install a uboot.
Download a uboot from here:
https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/linux-u-boot/releases

Now, it says you should download an flash SPI image, flash that image to an SD or eMMC and boot from that.
Well, with an old / missing uboot, the flash SPI image won't load.

So, download the .deb:
u-boot-rockchip-rockpro64-2017.09-rockchip-ayufan-1065-g95f6152134.deb

Open a terminal, and install the deb.
sudo dpkg -i u-boot-rockchip-rockpro64-2017.09-rockchip-ayufan-1065-g95f6152134.deb

Then flash the uboot to spi with
sudo rock64_write_spi_flash.sh

Enter YES with capitals to confirm that this is a scary thing to do.

After it stops scrolling you are done.
You can now boot other images.

This probably goes into the 'goes without saying'  category, because this information is nowhere to be found.
This took me a day, so let's hope this post saves someone else a day.

Also, please correct/reply if I made some errors in this description, I'm only doing this for one day now.
