Star64 is Pine64's new 64-bit RISC-V Single-Board Computer, based on the StarFive JH7110 SoC.

In this article we’ll…
(1) Look inside the brand new Linux Images for Star64
(2) Decompile (with Ghidra) the RISC-V Linux Kernel
(3) Figure out how Apache NuttX RTOS might run on Star64

Hello everyone,

Since two days, I search to solve my problem.
I test Plebian, DietPi, but with both distrib (on mSDCard and EMMC) the usb is not recognized (no keybord, mouse, etc)
from ssh session, I don't have logs, or specifique message with dmesg, no device attached with lsub command...

It's not the cm4-to-pi3 (https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/CM4-to-Pi3-Adapter), my Raspberry CM4 work without problem in this adpater.

I need help

Has anyone had any success enabling scanning?

I have printing working, following the Alpine wiki, but not scanning.

Please can you give me some tips?

Is anyone using openSUSE-Tumbleweed-ARM-PLAMO-pinephone.aarch64-2023.03.20-Build74.5? I need some advice. Thanks in advance.

Hello,

Im  new to all of this.

I have visited pine.org in the aim to
purchase a pinephone (and maybe)
a pine laptop. I wrote twice to sales
to get some information, never got an
answer. i consulted pine.org reviews 
which confirmed that i was right about
to try and contact them beforehand.
All i found was complains.

Can some explain what's the problem
here ?

So I'm not sure if this is exactly what this forum was intended for. But it says "Software" so here's something interesting I found:

KOReader (github) is a FOSS document reader intended for E-Ink devices, but also supporting color documents on color devices. It seems pretty snappy on the #Pinetab2. Reading is the main thing I use devices of this size for, and I've been frustrated with the UI (especially for touch!) of evince/okular. KOReader seems to hold some real promise!

I installed with `flatpak install rocks.koreader.KOReader`. 

(I had to run it twice because my ancient wifi dongle seems a little flaky.)

Happy reading!

My son has a sealed PineTime watch with PineTime version 1.5 software installed. He wants to upgrade the software, but we can no longer connect to the watch with Siglo. I suspect that the bluetooth is no longer working.

So I can connect to another PineTime watch on the same computer, but not this watch. I don't believe there is any other way to connect, for example using the USB charge adapter to connect to the laptop USB port doesn't seem to be a viable way to communicate with the watch.

If the bluetooth stops working, is there any practical way to save this watch? It is set to 1970, and my son has installed a version of the software (1.5) that doesn't appear to support updating the time.

He has autism and is love with the PineTime watch. He spends endless hours upgrading and downgrading the software on it, because he wants to experience every version number. I guess the watch has been loved to death.

Any advice is apprciated.

Hi,

I followed the instructions on https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PineTab2_Releases and https://github.com/Kwiboo/u-boot-build#s...mmc-module to install Mobian. But the pinetab2 doesn't boot from the prepared SD card. The screen stays black.

What I did:

Hi,
i was trying to explore if i could add some new widgets to the desktop looking for something i could use.
So i did right click on the panel--> add widgets-->get new widgets-->download new plasma widgets
When i do that i get a popup window with an error that reads:
"loading of providers from file: https://autoconfig.kde.org/ocs/providers.xml failed"

Is this something happening only to me?
Any idea how to fix this?

Thanks!
