  5GHz wifi not working
Posted by: snorwood - 08-12-2022, 06:56 AM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (11)

I have a new Pinebook Pro (August 2022 run).  It works fine in all other respects, but I have had zero luck with it recognizing 5GHz wireless networks with the included Manjaro distribution, a new Fedora installation, and a new Manjaro installation.  The 2.4GHz wireless service works fine, if a bit slowly.  The only way that I have managed to get 5GHz wireless to work is with an external RTL8812AU USB device (which worked immediately without any necessary configuration).

Is this a known issue?  If so, is it a hardware problem or a software one?  Am I missing a firmware update?


  128GB Module not booting on 2022 Pinebook Pro batch
Posted by: JessicaQ - 08-12-2022, 06:41 AM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - No Replies

Just got my PineBook Pro today. Booted up fine with the default 64gb emmc. Tried to install the 128 GB Emmc module and won't boot, just red power indicator. Is there a specific image I am suppose to use? I hadn't had any problems with the 128 emmc previously. I have the Rockpro64 SBC and no issues with 128gb emmc module using USB and Balena Etcher.


  Need a working image for Quartz64B
Posted by: Excalibur - 08-11-2022, 09:48 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Quartz64 - Replies (23)

Just got a model B and tried to do some verification. I have tried the following 2 images, but none of them is working correctly:

Manjaro-ARM-minimal-quartz64-b-20220808.img.xz: Serial output is entirely corrupted. It seems the system is booted into the OEM setup mode, and whenever I press the enter key it will immediately return some junk back. I assume it was asking for some question and won't take an empty response as answer, so it was asking again.

Armbian_22.08.0-trunk.0114_Quartz64a_jammy_edge_5.19.0.img.xz: No image for Model B from Armbian, so this A image has to do. The serial output is less corrupted with some recognizable words but far from a clean output. It is in a boot loop so not usable.

The serial cable and settings works correctly on a Radxa ROCK 4 so this has to be the board's issue right? (Right?) I tried to replace the DC power supply with another one with no avail since I think there might be some noise from the ground plane. They are 2 prong design though.


  PPhonePro (Manjaro AMR + Phosh) with keyboard does not shutdown but restarts instead
Posted by: timt - 08-11-2022, 09:30 AM - Forum: PinePhone Pro Hardware - No Replies

My PPP running Phosh 0.20.0beta3+4+gd4728aea-1 on Manjaro ARM 22.08 and connected to Pinephone keyboard does not switch off when using "Power Off".
Instead it restarts. When I shutdown from the terminal I get the same. Without the keyboard the behaviour is normal and it shuts down.
Is this a know issue or perhaps I'm doing something wrong.

Any help is greatly appreciated!


  Volunteer firefighter needs help forwarding alam message
Posted by: Veraendert - 08-11-2022, 06:05 AM - Forum: PinePhone Software - Replies (8)

Hi,

I'm a volunteer firefighter. We use dual alarm so the mobile phone is just a backup. I now use my pinephone as a daily driver and usually do no longer carry an android phone with the alarm software around.

So i was thinking about forwarding the alarm notification to my pinephone (and ideally other Linux devices because the PP still isn't really reliable). I do have a solution where the Android device sits at home and the notification of the alarm app is forwarded via email (i use Macrodroid to do this). But it takes time for the email to arrive so this solution is far from perfect (i still have to figure out how to forward the full notification text, too). The ideal (?) solution probably would to use something like gotify but i have no idea how to feed that software the info from the alarm app notification.

So, please, can anyone think of a solution to forward notfifications from an Android phone to Linux devices in real time (or at least as fast as possible), ideally using my Linux server so i don't let anyone peek into the confidential messages? I would prefer not using SMS and the alarm app will not work under Waydroid as it needs google play store to obtain the information needed to register with the server.


  Keyboard not working PPP is support broken atm?
Posted by: joshndroid - 08-11-2022, 03:44 AM - Forum: PinePhone Pro Accessories - Replies (13)

Hey all, 
Just received my keyboard.
It looks awesome. 
I plugged it in and nothing on my manjaro install with plasma
I though maybe manjaro was not supported like pmOS so flashed across to that with plasma and nothing. 
I checked the docs and the guides which ellude to it being an auto thing. 
I can see the battery charging indicator in pmOS and if I push any harder on the pogo pin area I am going to break my screen. 

I was reading some of the forums and reddit and with latest kernel there was issues? Is this an order 'latest' and we should be good to go?
I checked about the firmware ie kernel or users pace but based on the docs saying that it should already be supported and just automatically I came here in case I am doing something wrong. 

Cheers all.


  PineBook Pro seems to go to deep sleep, but doesn't wake up
Posted by: pogo - 08-10-2022, 01:53 AM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (11)

Hello,

is sleep supposed to work on the manjaro arm image?

I have installed the latest Manjaro KDE for PineBook pro 22.06 (5.18 kernel) and am using tow-boot 2021.10-004.

I have tried external mice, pressing all keys, the power button, touchpad etc. but the only thing that makes the pbp turn on again is holding the power button to completely turn it off and pressing it again to turn it on. Am I supposed to install anything (like patches) or change the config?


if anyone has any ideas on how to fix sleep, I would appreciate it.

Express Your Pride with Our Hilarious Gay Garfields Meme Shirt

The Gay Garfield Shirt speaks to self-expression and the need for a bit of humor—it takes the much-loved cartoon character Garfield and adds a slight campy twist. It immediately connects with TestFixture and the community, reflecting pride, love, and acceptance. This paper disassembles why this shirt speaks to culture and why it reached iconic status as one of the go-to manners to express identity in fun and light-heartedly.

Design Elements of the Gay Garfield Shirt

One of the biggest attractions of the shirt was its design. It has typical features: bright colors—of course, a lot of bright colors with the iconic rainbow flag—a few images of Garfield in funny, hilarious poses, sometimes with a lasagna pan, and in flamboyant poses. It unites recognizable elements of Garfield with LGBTQ+ symbols to connote a joyful and accepting feeling.

Funny Aspects of the Design

Many also include witty taglines that echo the experience, such as "Love is Lasagna" and "Proudly Purring." Those taglines add a humorous tone to the subject matter and serve as icebreakers whenever one wishes to discuss issues and pride openly.

What Makes This Tee Wearable

This could be a vital way of supporting the LGBTQ+ community, promoting inclusivity, and expressing identity by wearing this wonderful design. It makes you want almost everyone and wish to embrace supporting friends and family, but you want to be across all spectrums with that.

This vibrant shirt humorously combines Garfield's love for lasagna with a playful twist

Wearing this could break barriers and further conversations on those crucial topics of equality and representation in a fun, refreshing way on somber themes—when love and acceptance are celebrated.

Match with the Gay Garfield T Shirt

The Gay Garfield T Shirt is not an article for wear but an entire way of life and mind in that wearing it symbolizes one's commitment to the cause of persity. The following section discusses ways of wearing it the kind of clothing worn, and the occasion.

Styles and Variations

That tees are an array of styles and cuts meant to compliment different body shapes and even just the preferences other men nurtured. Included are bare crew-type stainless steel to trendy crop tops, aside from some designswith oversized fits for a relaxed look. The most popular one is in the rainbow motif, where one is voluptuously colored with hues otherwise associated with personal style.

Material and Comfort

It is dedicated to comfort, breathability, and eco-friendliness throughout the day. Designed in a soft 100% cotton fabric, this item is ideal for sun-dazzled days all year round and any relaxed outings. The brand itself represents the value of sustainability, reflecting the value system of LGBTQ inpiduals dictating both social justice and further environmental salvation.

Events the T-Shirt Could be Great For

This creative design can be worn to Pride parades and casual get-togethers, among other everyday activities. Indeed, it goes well when paired with simple jeans or shorts or a skirt for a not-demure look. It is great for theme parties and events to show support and unity for gay communities.

The Catalyst to Community Engagement and Activism

Community Engagement

This tee will encourage community members to become involved because of the free solicited clarification questions and open opinions on LGBTQ+ issues that seek to inform and gain insight. By wearing it, participants will feel like they are part of an organized group and thus can foster friendships between like-minded people at the same social events based on their aspirations and tastes. The shirt is also helpful in gear.

Support LGBTQ Artists and Entrepreneurs

When you support a this t-shirt, you buy work from artists and businesses and help economically empower them to create better and more persified representations of fashion. These shirts come from designs by independent designers and small businesses geared toward creating an atmosphere of inclusivity where everybody feels that their presence is worthwhile and their voices are heard.

This colorful shirt playfully reimagines Garfield in a fun and modern style

Ridiculously Funny Memes

The Use of Humor in the Community

The T-shirts are funny as they provide a lighter front for a severe issue, promoting brotherhood and connecting the people wearing them. Adding memes or references lets inpiduals express themselves, invite others to share in the laughter, and join in on belonging within the LGBTQ+ community. Meat lasagna is a food metaphor.

Lasagna as a Symbol

Gay Garfield Shirt, Funny LGBT+ Meme with Lasagna and Cock Dream represents comfort, indulging, and pleasure—precisely what the LGBTQ+ experience is about. This design reclaims satisfaction and celebration toward life's simple complexities of identity, re-finding pride in its difference.

Engaging designs with slogans and conducive play of references create connections, activism, and acceptance. Worn in pride events or simple outings, it is a reminder that love, laughter, and inpidualism are to be celebrated. It's more than just a shirt—it's who you are.


  Can't flash firmware, out of options
Posted by: kj6epl - 08-08-2022, 10:16 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PineTime - Replies (4)

I'm trying to switch from WaspOS to Infinitime. I have managed to get the watch stuck in the Wasp bootloader and cannot get it to accept the Infinitime reloader or micropython.zip to get back into Wasp. It seems:

-Gadgetbridge has no provisions to send a file to a watch stuck in bootloader.
-NRF connect updated and doesn't work anymore; if you don't have a backup of 4.24 I guess you're out of luck. (This is how I got stuck in this mess to begin with.)
-Siglo doesn't seem to work with my computer's BT dongle.

Any workarounds for this to get my watch back to a useable state?


  Touchpad Issues - August 2022 Run
Posted by: SteveCaruso - 08-08-2022, 07:53 PM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - Replies (5)

Hey everyone,

Just got my hands on the Pinebook Pro I ordered from this month's batch, and I'm having touchpad issues (specifically the lagginess that has been reported priorly).

However, since all of the fix threads I can find are two years old, wanted to ask if there is there a consensus on what the best first plan of attack is right now? Firmware update? Kernel recompile?

Peace,
