I was wondering if there was a video on how to use the uart cable to reinstall danctnix.

I have listed here problems with Abiword on the Pinephone which make it impossible to use Abiword with postmarkedOS stable:

The only option left here is to change the distro from postmarkedOS stable to Postmarket OS Phosh Edge, which is a lot of work. But why can I not write a file to the exernal SD card with Abiword? I can save a file to the internal SD card with Abiword, but not to to the exernal SD card. Is there a way to do it or is it an issue that Abiword cannot do this?

Hi,
I have three Quartz64 model A. They have been running ESXI arm for some time. I tried to reinstall them today But cant get the NIC working. I have tried Arch and Plebian with the same result.


Any tips?

Thanks

Hi all,

Today my Comfast CF-9534X wifi adapter arrived and I followed these instructions for hotplugging it. The (kernel)drivers for the mt7921u chipset are where they should be; the adapter is recognised according to the lsusb command, but a modprobe mt7921u gives a FATAL result: Module mt7921u not found in directory /lib/modules/6.4.8-danctnix1-1-pinetab2.

Any of you happened to have a mt7921u.ko file on your 1-1kernel pinetab2 that I could borrow? Or is it just not in the image?

TIA!

Hi all,

I received my Pinetab two weeks ago. Had it plasma-bricked, reinstalled the image and did an update of all software immediately after. Everything (as advertised that is) works fine. But I got an issue now because it's booting when connected to a power source. No need to press the power button; it just boots.

Is there a setting in the UEFI that causes this problem, and if so, how can it be adjusted?

Thanks in advance!

I installed Debian Gnome then Phosh on a Lenovo Thinpad Tablet, and the user wants to autologin.
I was able to edit /etc/gdm3/daemon.conf to that effect but it doesn't work for the Phosh session.
I can't find anywhere on the internet information on how Phosh manages its session nor where the configuration files are.
Woud anybody here know ?

I have tried to update my sealed PineTime from 1.11 to 1.12 and 1.13, using nRF Connect.
I followed the istructions here:
https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/Upgrade_Pin...Time_1.0.0

No luck, though. The watch still runs on 1.11.
Am I doing anything wrong? Thanks.

Hi All: @annerajb and I are porting Apache NuttX RTOS (Real-Time Operating System) to PinePhone Pro. And we welcome you to join us!

NuttX is a lighter, simpler alternative to Linux / Unix. NuttX Apps look very similar to Linux, because NuttX is compatible with POSIX.

Why NuttX? It's great for folks who are curious about the Bare Metal Internals of PinePhone Pro. And it might become a Daily Driver someday!

Today, NuttX Mainline boots on PinePhone Pro to the Serial Console. It runs simple Linux-like commands.

We seek your help to build up NuttX for PinePhone Pro:

- I2C Touch Input (@annerajb is working on this)
- Display Driver (VOP for RK3399, based on NuttX MIPI DSI)
- Touchscreen Apps (with LVGL and maybe Zig)
- 4G LTE Modem (SMS, Voice Calls, maybe a Feature Phone?)
- Sensors: Accelerometer, Light, Proximity, GPS, etc
- USB Host Controller (EHCI)
- Plus a whole bunch of other features (Similar to NuttX on PinePhone)

Please let us know if you'd like to contribute. The code for NuttX on PinePhone Pro is here.

I've documented the entire process of porting NuttX to PinePhone, it might speed things up for PinePhone Pro. Thanks!

(BTW I'm a Volunteer with the Apache NuttX Project Mgmt Committee)

I installed the rhino image file on the internal chip. It booted well enough, very showy compared to Mobian. (I have the PinePhone Keyboard installed.)

On reboot, the status panel was not present, neither was the virtual keyboard. I could not adjust the screen magnification from 100%, or add a Bluetooth mouse. With work, the Linux console could be quite usable. I did not have the knowledge of XFCE4 to recover the panel, virtual keyboard, or mouse.

This update command works:
$ pacstall -Up

With the help of these two references, the console is usable with the PinePhone Keyboard, and the combination has the symbol row working with the Pinecone Key.
