  Android on SOQuartz
Posted by: alistson - 09-26-2022, 11:29 AM - Forum: Android on Quartz64 - Replies (2)

Hi anyone has a link to prebuilt SDCard image to boot Android 11/12 on the SOQuartz using the CM4 IO Board?


  HDMI and PBP USB C port
Posted by: IMSAI8080 - 09-26-2022, 09:17 AM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - No Replies

Hello, bought a PBP a few months ago. I'm very happy. A great product.
I'm using it, more and more as my main PC and hope, one day, to use it for everything.
The next month, I'm going to start a language course. The school works on Zoom and Google Classroom.
I'm thinking to give the PBP a try and, moreover, to record all the lessons with an external screen capture device I have, via HDMI.
After reading some posts, have those questions:
0. in general, do you think my choice is too risky?
1. in particular,
    a. do you have any experience with Zoom? Using Manjaro?
    b. does the PBP the video signal pass through a common USB C entry/HDMI female exit adapter? Any experience? The idea is to connect the HDMI cable (connected with the adapter, which is connected with the PBP) to my external screen capture device. I also have the PP dock, I got with my PP, in any case. Sorry for this last question, I'm travelling for my job and don't have with me my PBP. For now, just thinking about problems I could have when I come back home and listening to the community experience...

Thank you all so much.


  Testing a broken Vulkan driver
Posted by: LivingLinux - 09-26-2022, 05:08 AM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - No Replies

After reading this post that someone has Vulkan working on the Pinephone Pro, I tried it on the Pinebook Pro.
https://www.reddit.com/r/pinephone/comme...rk_on_the/

You have to add the following line to /etc/environment
PAN_I_WANT_A_BROKEN_VULKAN_DRIVER=1
And reboot.

So I tested with Manjaro and you have to be on Wayland.

I have the following Vulkan packages installed:
vulkan-headers
vulkan-icd-loader
vulkan-mesa-layers
vulkan-panfrost
vulkan-tools

And the vkcube demo only works for me when I run the Wayland version: vkcube-wayland
So far I haven't found anything useful.
PPSSPP doesn't work with Vulkan on Linux ARM and I can't start a game with AetherSX2.
Perhaps there are some other things we can try to test?

  eMMC endurance
Posted by: O1ez - 09-26-2022, 04:15 AM - Forum: Quartz64 Hardware and Accessories - Replies (2)

Hello,
I was not able to find any information on this so I am trying it here. What is the rated endurance in terms of data written of the eMMC modules that can be attached to the Quartz64?


  red led blink on rockpro pine 64
Posted by: Daniele14521 - 09-26-2022, 01:40 AM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCKPRO64 - No Replies

Goodmorning to everybody,

I' ve 4 Rockpro Pine64, 3 of them work correctly, while one has the red led flashing, I tried to change the micro SD card, I also tried to start it without any micro SD card but the red led keeps flashing.


How can I solve?

Thanks,
Daniele


  Scaling problem Arch Linux Phosh
Posted by: Chief - 09-25-2022, 05:44 PM - Forum: Arch Linux on PinePhone - Replies (7)

I see that an old bug has resurfaced? I have always edited the phoc.ini in the phosh directory to 150% but I see now that after reboot it has returned to 200% default. It appears as though the phoc.ini no longer controls the scaling?
Has anyone else run into this issue very recently?
If so were you able to fix it or edit another file?


  STAR64 status
Posted by: cederom - 09-25-2022, 12:32 PM - Forum: General - Replies (15)

Hello world :-)

I have just pre-ordered StarFive VisionFive2 board [1] with StarFive JH7110 with RISC-V U74 CPU.

Someone pointed me to a similar but more robust STAR64 project from the PINE64.. but I can only find a WIKI page [1].. no Forum section.. no Store section.

I would like to ask about the PINE64 STAR64 project status:
* When it will be available to order?
* What would be the price?
* Do you plan FreeBSD support?

Thanks :-)

  phone does not ring (when sleeping)
Posted by: jsch - 09-25-2022, 11:34 AM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (2)

My phone (OG PP) is no longer ringing reliable.
If the pone is already up (awake), then there is not issue perceived.
But if it is sleeping, then it it seldom ringing if called. The phone is waking up, hence I don't assume an issue w/ cell or modem.
I tried to tweak one parameter from eg25-manager, not sure if this is the right approach.
The line

Code:
{ cmd = "QCFG", subcmd = "urc/ri/ring", expect = "\"pulse\",120,1000,5000,\"off\",1" },

in /usr/share/eg25-manager/pine64,pinephone-1.2.toml
was changed to
Code:
{ cmd = "QCFG", subcmd = "urc/ri/ring", expect = "\"pulse\",120,1000,5000,\"off\",3" },
which allows it to ring three times.


Thumbs Up PinePhone Pro working
Posted by: adamfowleruk - 09-25-2022, 11:17 AM - Forum: General Discussion of PinePhone Pro - Replies (2)

Hi all,

I've just got around after months of inaction to doing the initial set up of my PinePhone Pro and installing the latest nightly (20220925) of Manjaro Phosh.

Install was fine, and flashing the emmc was fine. As to was installing updates from the UI - an improvement over the original PinePhone. One hardware oddity I thought I'd ask about here though...

I have the USB-C dongle from the original PinePhone. This worked fine for both a basic USB keyboard, HDMI to a monitor, and as a Network adapter on the old PinePhone.

On the PinePhone Pro though it appears that although the Pro is charging fine (at max 2 Amps too!), the USB keyboard is not receiving power and doesn't work, and the LAN connector although lighting up doesn't seem to be configured to be used by default on the PinePhone Pro. (No 'LAN' connection by default in the network settings, and no IP assigned).

Does anyone know the magic incantation to get the USB keyboard and the Network adapter working with the Pro please? I'd ideally like to be able to look cool on the train and edit code with a usb keyboard attached to the PinePhone Pro whilst placed on a stand I have! (random use case, I realise!). And Not to have to buy the keyboard case (although it does look cool to be fair).

This dongle is not mentioned on the PinePhone Pro wiki page alongside the other adapters specifically for the Pro, so I'm not sure if it's even meant to work.

I've not tested HDMI yet but plan to next weekend. (I'll probably need to do that to see all of the Advanced Network Configuration apps UI! LOL.)

All in all it's a little easier to get started with than the original PinePhone I think. The speed of the device feels infinitely better too - I'm really looking forward to trying it in anger. When I relocate my spare SIM I'll test it for calls and general use too and do a vlog episode on it for my channel. It'll be heavily caveated that this is not a mainstream device, don't worry!

Thanks for making the PinePhone Pro, and I'll report back with any further problems/solutions/suggestions as I find them!


  Manjaro pinebookpro images with kernel 5.7.19
Posted by: rfm83 - 09-24-2022, 09:23 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (11)

Does anyone know where the Manjaro images (xfce) for pbpro using kernel 5.7.19 are available for download?
The images on Manjaro's GitHub page come with kernel 5.18 which breaks the usb-c to HDMI driver.
