  New SD card won't auto-mount, will only mount as read-only
Posted by: 3x5co - 07-15-2022, 07:57 PM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (3)

I just got a 256gb, off-brand MicroSD card (it's actually Onn brand, which is a Walmart generic brand). Anyway, I formatted it on my computer, and everything seemed fine. But when I put it into my Pinephone, it won't mount. I can only mount it like so:

Code:
sudo mount -t ext4 -o ro /dev/mmcblk0p1 /storage/0000-0000/;

And if i put 'rw', it won't mount. It says 'bad superblock'. This is no matter how many times I reformat, if I recreate the partition table, If I disable journalling. I have even formatted it from inside the pinephone and it won't mount. Does anyone know what I can do to make my card auto-mount, and make it writable?

  5a versus 3a PSU
Posted by: olivercfc - 07-13-2022, 12:41 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Quartz64 - Replies (2)

Are there any guidelines as to when you'd need to get the 5a PSU versus the 3a one?


  Hardware h264 video encoding.
Posted by: Randomuser - 07-12-2022, 05:32 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Quartz64 - Replies (3)

I've been searching and searching and I'm finding various info about people saying h264 hardware encoding is implemented. I even found some github code for hantro h1 encoder which supposedly rk3566 has, but there is no straightforward confirmation whether this works or not.

I really don't care about the OS. I would prefer Linux, but android is fine too. Can someone please confirm or deny h264 encoding works on this hw? If no OS driver exists then is there a closed source driver?


  Bookworm Satellite Navigation
Posted by: biketool - 07-12-2022, 07:03 AM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (7)

Since I have upgraded to Bookworm(borked my system playing with BT, iptables, etc.; wiped, reloaded) I have not had working satellite navigation.  I after following the steps in the Mobian wiki I can use cellphone tower location and internet provide geolocation but those both put me between 5 and 30km away, not usable.

Does anyone have satellite navigation working on Bookworm?

If you do how did you achieve this? 

Did you follow the wiki or another guide?

Hand installation and config Mobian wiki page - https://wiki.mobian-project.org/doku.php?id=location (does NOT specify Mobian release)

Thanks!


Heart [solved] Anyone selling their Pinebook?
Posted by: feyn - 07-11-2022, 03:38 PM - Forum: Pinebook Hardware and Accessories - No Replies

Edit: Got one from Ebay now

Hello,

I'd love to tinker with a Pinebook (yes, non-pro version), but unfortunately they are out of stock and probably will be for an extended period (?). Shop also says "Reserved for “Reduce Digital Gap campaign" - I guess this means that even *if* they  were in stock, you will never be able to buy them again?

Because of this, if anyone reading this has a spare, mostly working Pinebook lying around, please get in touch :-) I am located in Germany, but shipping should be doable from anywhere in the world.

Thanks!


  Should computer maintenance involve blood sacrifice?
Posted by: Perl6_user - 07-11-2022, 12:55 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (3)

In order to troubleshoot a "no light on power on" problem, (which does not seem unique to me, judging by several threads), I had to open up the base of the machine.
This turned out to have several sections that were razor sharp, one of which sliced open a fingertip. The blood sacrifice unfortunately was not rewarded with success.
Future production might benefit from a modest deburring and sanding of the board's edges.


  VPN on Plasma
Posted by: Hobgoblin - 07-11-2022, 12:54 PM - Forum: Manjaro on PinePhone - Replies (1)

Hi Everyone,

Has anyone been able to get a VPN working on Manjaro Plasma? I know Phosh comes with the functionality and I have been using it for that, but I haven't been able to figure out how to do it in Plasma yet.

Has anyone been able to get it working?

Looking forward to hearing about it Cool

Regards

Hello all,

I am looking for a quick synopsis on what has changed in mobian. Is it ready for a daily driver? Should we resume QA testing what we consider core features?

What is still missing? What seems to work alright?

Does megapixel still take grainy pictures?

Myself and my QA partner might pick up testing distros against each other again.

Thanks for the replies.
