Hopefully the right place to post soquartz threads:

The Problem
Upon bootup, it does a dhcp and grabs an IP address.  Otherwise, no evidence of a pulse [no HDMI output, seemingly no console via serial output].  Is there a way to ssh in?  If so, what are the credentials?  rock64\rock64 and many other obvious combinations fail.

The Setup
I have a soquartz module on a rpi4 module IO carrier board (https://datasheets.raspberrypi.com/cm4io...asheet.pdf) from a SD card, image 'rk3566-soquartz-cm4.dtb.img'.

Open to other ideas on how to get to console.  Thanks for any suggestions.

I set the scaling to 1200%.(I made a mistake!)
And when I set the scaling to 200%, the navigation bar is smaller than before and there is a blank space on the right side.
Which setting can fix this?
   

Good condition ISO layout Pinebook Pro with nvme adapter and suitable low power 256 GB SSD (+ serial cable for the microphone jack).
SPI was flashed once and currently boots OpenBSD directly from nvme. 

I do not have enough time to tinker with it. If you do, it is all yours for 130 EUR + shipping.

My other hobby is drinking coffee. If you have some kind of lever espresso machine to spare we could perhaps arrange a trade instead?

I recently updated Manjaro Plasma and now I have an unbootable phone that just vibrates loudly.

PPP sounding like hair clippers.

Don't know if it's a lost cause or not. Any ideas?

I upgraded my system using pacman and my keyboard stopped working.
The battery in the keyboard appears to be working.

How can I fix this?

My environment
Input method: Fcitx5 + Mozc
OS: Plasma Mobile

Hi guys,
i'm searching for a Pinetab(keyboard included), it seems that it's not becoming available, so if anyone in Europe who can ship to Italy has one (possibly not much used) to sell, I would be happy to buy it!

Thanks,
Tommaso.

I recently got the PinePhone convergence, and it had a lot of the common problems with Manjaro Plasma, including the battery not charging fully and only holding a charge for a few minutes unless plugged in. Battery drained overnight even with phone turned off, as reported by a number of people. I got the phone, fooled with it for a day, then got updates via the terminal; after that the phone not only didn't charge well but it would crash instantly when unplugged. Obviously, this wasn't working.

So I decided to try the postmarketOS (release v21.12 for PinePhone), put it on an SD card, loaded it onto the phone, and bang: not only a great lightweight os that actually works, but it fixed the battery issues. Now the phone charges 100% and most importantly holds a charge for several hours. Don't know if anyone else has had this experience, but it sure worked for me. Worth a try if you are having those battery issues, and can use a more minimal os.

I was looking into buying a ROCK64-2GB to create a retro gaming system but I am currently put off by the huge $24 shipping costs to California, USA. Will there be low cost shipping alternatives in the future?

I am struggeling to install Libre Office on the PinePhone.

Martijn Braam showed that it runs on Postmarket OS:

It runs on Fedora:

I tried to install it manually:

but I gave up due to complicated file formats.

Sudo apt install libreoffice as in this instruction failed in PostmarkedOS:

LibreOffice should work on the M10 with Ubports:

but new files can only be created by the file manager, but not by LibreOffice.

I tried to install LibreOffice on Ubports PinePhone, but I get an error message:

Does someone use LibreOffice on the PinePhone or Ubports? If someone buts a«buggy» LibreOffice in the App store. I would be very happy with a buggy solution. It would save a lot of time.

Does anyone plan on using these as a alternative to Raspberry Pi for video game emulation?
