  Hey Phosh Folks !!
Posted by: Chief - 09-02-2022, 03:31 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (4)

I'm hoping that the Phosh staff read these articles.
We really do need a 'disable onscreen keyboard' switch.
It could be located in the Phosh banner at the top with the other switches.
I have noted that Postmarket os KDE Plasma has a disable keyboard widget.
Just a suggestion that 10's of thousands would agree with I suppose?

Is there any plan to make a Pinebook Pro based on the RK3588?

It has 8 cores:

[*]4x ARM Cortex-A76 @ 2.6 GHz
[*]4x ARM Cortex-A55 @ 1.8 GHz

  PinePhone for Kids
Posted by: iraklisam - 09-01-2022, 11:50 AM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (2)

Hi All,

Here is my problem:
I want a phone for my 10 year old boy. This phone should have only one function: dial a number and make a call. Actually 3 numbers: emergency, my number and my spouse's number. Also I want phone to receive calls (it is a phone after all). I want everything else to be disabled or blocked (including camera) when he is using the device.
Questions:
1. Does PinePhone support multiple users (root and regular user) so that I can set up the phone and give it to kid.
2. Is it possible to block everything except phone call function?

Thank you very much for your understanding and feedback.


  Serial console pinout?
Posted by: jlucas - 09-01-2022, 09:31 AM - Forum: PinePhone Accessories - Replies (2)

Hey I found some contradicting information on the wiki regarding the serial cable pinout:

In this wiki page it says that the tip is RX and the ring TX.
But right below it links to this PDF which says the opposite - tip is Tx and ring 1 is Rx.

Which one is correct?

  Forcing app to work in background - phosh
Posted by: saddamus - 09-01-2022, 01:52 AM - Forum: General - Replies (3)

Dear community.
I could not google the answer to my question. There are default apps for Calls (gnome calls) and SMS (chatty) that keep working in background.  How do I add another app same way to be always active ? I wanted to use fractal for matrix, but once the app UI is closed, the process is killed, so it does not receive new messages until its manualy open. Can it be forced in background same as Calls and Chatty?


  Article: NuttX RTOS on PinePhone: Fixing the Interrupts
Posted by: lupyuen - 08-31-2022, 07:58 PM - Forum: PinePhone Software - No Replies

Creating our own Operating System (non-Linux) for PinePhone can be super challenging…

-  How does PinePhone handle Interrupts?

-  What’s a Generic Interrupt Controller? (GIC)

-  Why is PinePhone’s GIC particularly problematic?

-  What’s an Exception Level? (EL)

-  Why does EL matter for handling Arm64 Interrupts?

We’ll answer these questions we port Apache NuttX RTOS to PinePhone...

  Connection to WiFi with OWE
Posted by: IhorOlkhovskyi - 08-31-2022, 07:36 AM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - Replies (1)

Hello!

Just got a PineBook Pro on Manjaro and trying to connect it to WiFi network with OWE, but no luck. To networks without it connection is fine.
In logs I do see this:


Code:
NetworkManager[495]: <info>  [1661936785.2866] policy: auto-activating connection 'WIFI_OWE' (6df297b9-b9c7-4746-a934-725a10786425)

Any hints how it could be fixed?

Thanks!
