  ChromiumOS experience
Posted by: tsago - 11-07-2019, 07:29 AM - Forum: Chromium OS on Pinebook Pro - Replies (21)

How does everyone like this, if you've tried it?

For me, in general the feel is very smooth; the system feels more responsive than the image shipped from factory.
I am still getting used to the quirky right- and middle-click with touchpad. (right-click = alt+left-click, or two-finger tap; middle-click = three-finger tap)

I've tried two SSH apps but they both fail due to NaCl apparently missing, (is that expected?), not sure how to add that.
Google Drive access also doesn't seem to work from the system itself (= not visible from "Files" app); it only properly works from web-browser access.
I can get it to appear momentarily in "Files" if I disable then enable Google Drive (it's somewhere in settings, can't remember now), but it disappears
shortly afterwards/when I actually try to get into the folders.


  No Sound, Non Root User
Posted by: deebeez - 11-07-2019, 01:29 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (10)

Hi guy's, let me start by saying this pinebook pro is awesome ! However, I have no sound, I can hear hissing from the speakers and I tried changing some settings and then switching them right back but nothing has helped. Also, I am in the rock account. I know Linux is very finicky with audio, I have an on-board sound blaster in my desktop and it occasionally has problems. I really don't know what else to try. Nothing is muted, I tried the speaker test in settings, youtube etc.. Outputs look fine, it's on duplex. Thanks


  PCIe
Posted by: Der Geist der Maschine - 11-07-2019, 12:51 AM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - Replies (2)

The Pinebook Pro supports PCIe, doesn't it. Lspci shows nothing. I would have expected a root-port or so.

Are above errors expected? Do you also get them?


  Restore default Debian system

After messing up the default Debian system, how can one restore it to the original factory settings?


  Possible in the future to just upgrade pinephone mainboard?
Posted by: 33YN2 - 11-06-2019, 06:12 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (1)

Instead of producing extra ewaste, perhaps in the future pinephone's could just have the mainboard and maybe the screen replaced to upgrade them to the latest version. That way you re-use as many parts as possible.

I know you guys are planning on selling parts for the phones, but is this something that might be possible too?


  Netflix on PBP
Posted by: aversglay - 11-06-2019, 04:01 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (7)

I am pretty sure I tried Netflix a few days ago and it worked, but now it seems I am getting a complaint about missing component (Error Cod: C7702-1003). I launch chromium (firefox still crashes after only seconds) with :

chromium-browser --disk-cache-size=2147483648 --user-agent="Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS armv7l 6946.63.0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/72.0.3626.121 Safari/537.36"

Any advice?


Brick WireGuard Installation

I wrote a guide for installing WireGuard on the Pinebook Pro (for MrFixit's Stretch distro) here: https://vercas.com/2019/11/05/wireguard-pbp.html

Blog post is hosted on GitHub Pages, so it's available here as well.


  Is the Pinebook Pro (current version) good for someone trying to learn linux?
Posted by: stiofan - 11-06-2019, 12:36 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (14)

Hi all

Is the Pinebook Pro (current version) good for someone trying to learn linux?

Or are there too many issues with it which would overwhelm a new user?

Thanks
