Lightbulb Bluetooth headsets - what works?
Posted by: embhorn - 11-04-2019, 04:28 PM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - Replies (17)

I tried to get my sennheiser hd 4.50 to pair using the included OS. It sees the headset, but fails during connect.

Has anyone had luck connecting BT headphones? 

If so, what works? Did you do anything special to get it to pair?


Also, after disabling BT from the panel app, it cannot be re-enabled without rebooting.


  Remote-viewer "Bus Error"
Posted by: wingmanjd - 11-04-2019, 02:26 PM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (6)

Hi all,

I have a Proxmox server with a SPICE-enabled guest.  I'm able to install the remote-viewer application from apt, but when I attempt to connect to the Proxmox guest machine's console, remote-viewer crashes out with the text "Bus error".   I've attempted the console connection also via Firefox and Chrome, as well.  I don't have this issue on my Ubuntu Mate box (main desktop -> Proxmox cluster)

I'd love to get this to work, as it would let me leverage my ProxMox cluster I have running at my house.

Happy to provide any requested logs.


  @ in password
Posted by: hdk - 11-04-2019, 02:22 PM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - No Replies

Love my new Pinebook Pro.

Added a new user in MrFixit's Debian.
The password contains a @.
Login was not possible.
Problem was the place of the @-key on the keyboard.
Try Shift-2 for the @. That worked for me.

I'll write my findings when I'm done testing.


  Universal Power Supply
Posted by: Der Geist der Maschine - 11-04-2019, 12:47 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (7)

The power supply consist of the actual power-supply together with a switchable US style plug xor European style plug.

The actual plug looks not very expensive. Would it be possible to ship both plugs or offer them at least as a separate order? Having both plugs can be quite useful for international travel.


  Permanent Watermark?
Posted by: Nurb432 - 11-04-2019, 12:06 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (16)

This may have been talked about but it appears that i have a permanent watermark of what might be the serial number, upside down, in the lower left of the screen.  

Is there a way to turn this off somehow?

EDIT: just noticed its there even when powerd off, but REALLY hard to see then.

I guess its burnt into the screen. so i have a bad LCD.  arrrgh. after waiting all this time Sad    How do we open up an issue with pine?


  Is there a guide to using the PADI-Server serial console adapter?
Posted by: Tim Jones - 11-04-2019, 11:47 AM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCKPRO64 - Replies (1)

Hi Folks,

I have a RockPRO 64 that won't boot off of any eMMC image.  I have the serial console adapter, but there's no information to indicate how it should be used.  Is there a guide out there that's I've just not found?

Thanks,
Tim


  PCIe 4X socket for optional NVMe adapter -retaing clip broken .
Posted by: ndp - 11-04-2019, 11:00 AM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - Replies (9)

I received my Batch 1 Pinebook Pro on Friday evening and encountered the already discussed problem of the NVMe cable.

Unfortunately, I also have another problem in that as soon as I touched the PCIe 4X socket for the optional NVMe adapter (No.2  on the Wiki diagram), the small grey retaining clip fell off in two pieces  Sad 

Is there a workaround for this or has the loss of this retaining clip rendered the socket effectively useless ?


  keyboard problem
Posted by: romansvec - 11-04-2019, 03:43 AM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - Replies (12)

Just got new Pinebook Pro and after first testing I realized the laptop keyboard is so bad I cannot write on it. I have to press key couple of times to type 1 single character. It is impossible to use such keyboard. It seems to be HW issue as when I attached external keyboard it worked fine.

How can this be fixed?


  reboot / crash
Posted by: Der Geist der Maschine - 11-03-2019, 09:42 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (40)

My Pinebook Pro was running for several hours. I left for an hour or so and when I came back, it had rebooted.

The systemd journal is not in persistent memory and so I don't know what happened right before the reboot or crash. All other logfiles in /var/log/ don't show anything in the 30 min before the reboot / crash.

Anyone has seen a reboot or crash, as well?


  How free actually PBP is ?
Posted by: as400 - 11-03-2019, 01:56 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (9)

Hello to everybody as this is my first post.

I was wondering how free actually PBP is ? I know that there is one blob needed for booting and another one for BT/WiFi. Anything else ?

I am asking this question being not very familiar with arm devices in general.
