  Manajaro Plasma 6 files break unstable updates, 6-30

The unstable branch of Manjaro Plasma is not updatable now. Plasma 5 files are missing from the update.


  Calls/Texts and External Monitor
Posted by: gregb49 - 06-30-2023, 11:38 AM - Forum: Manjaro on PinePhone - No Replies

Since I received my PinePhone in Oct22, I've tried several distributions and have been impressed by how they have slowly matured. I can almost rely on the PPhone as my daily 'phone.

My requirements are reliable calls/texts plus I would like to use my PPhone with an external monitor. That is where I have had problems. My favourite OS is UBPorts but it doesn't appear to support an external monitor neither do some of the others.

Manjaro Phosh does but is almost unuseable (see photos 1&2) as trying to get both screens to show the same or to just switch to an external monitor seems impossible.

I'm trying Majaro Plasma as it appears to be the OS that is being shipped with new PPhones. Manjaro Plasma seems to be almost there but has some quirks that I'm trying to struggle through. I hope this is not because I am using an Amazon dock rather than the Pine64 dock.

Is there a recommended distro (July 23) that gives 'phone reliability and a good dock experience?

  Pinetab-V shipping Status?
Posted by: jfstepha - 06-30-2023, 07:20 AM - Forum: General Discussion on PineTab - Replies (6)

Hey guys, forgive me if I'm posting this to the wrong place.  I searched for Pintab-V, but couldn't find much in the forums.

What's the status on the Pintab-V shipments?  I ordered mine on April 13 (order #288804), it said "delivery late May", but have got no information since then.  What's going on?

Thanks,
-Jon


  does the pinetab "just worK"?
Posted by: averageconsumer445 - 06-29-2023, 07:44 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PineTab - Replies (19)

Hello,

I'm a student that wants to buy the PineTab for note-taking purposes. I like the prospect of having all my notes in 1 place (or even digitizing handouts I fill out so that my backpack isn't cluttured). But the Wikipedia page for the PineTab says that buyers are expected to write software for the PineTab.

I was wondering, is there a OS for the PineTab that I can use to take notes, and does it come by default?

Thanks,
averageconsumer445


  [PT2] Sway
Posted by: m3henry - 06-29-2023, 05:45 PM - Forum: PineTab Software - Replies (1)

After using KDE for a while, the PineTab2 is not being as responseive as I'd like.

I thought I'd give sway a go, as I use it for my media PC.
I'm happy to report that using sway definitely makes things snappier when it comes to switching windows.
Plus openttd seems to run just fine once hardware acceleration is disabled. (most of the time was spent in presentation rather than rendering)

The screen and touch input needed rotating which is achieved by adding this to the sway config

Code:
output DSI-1 transform 90
input 1046:911:Goodix_Capacitive_TouchScreen map_to_output DSI-1


  Increasing battery life
Posted by: slondr - 06-29-2023, 02:50 PM - Forum: PinePhone Software - Replies (8)

Hi, my PinePhone on average gets about 1 hour battery life with the keyboard add-on - before I had the keyboard it was about 20 minutes of battery life on average. This is pretty low, but I thought it was expected due to common reports of users talking about low battery life. However I recently read on social media some people saying they're getting closer to 1 day out of the base hardware!

What tips are there to increase battery life? Is there software I can install which will help?

If it makes a difference I use sxmo on arch.

  Android bank apps
Posted by: ionmich - 06-28-2023, 11:55 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (4)

I assume that all banking apps run under Android. Linux offers Android emulators. Has anyone installed such an emulator on their phone? Which OS? Does it connect to their bank? I am running openSUSE.
