Star FreeBSD developer build for PinePhone Pro

I've been working on porting FreeBSD to the PinePhone Pro and happy to
report that I am releasing a developer build that you can try out:                                                   
                                                                     
https://codeberg.org/Honeyguide/freebsd-...o#releases         
                                                                     
Please test and report back! Any feedback would be helpful.                                                     
                                                                     
If you are a FreeBSD developer, the image contains the kernel source, 
build tools, vim, and an example driver that you can use to start     
implementing or porting drivers directly on-device.


  Quartz64 Zero HDMI
Posted by: grobbs - 04-26-2025, 02:22 AM - Forum: Quartz64 Hardware and Accessories - Replies (2)

Hi.

I'm confused about this board. Some website said it has HDMI but I can't seem to verify that.

Is there HDMI?

Thanks!


  PinePhone keyboard not registering input properly
Posted by: Feemphynead - 04-25-2025, 03:37 AM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - No Replies

I've recently got my PinePhone with the keyboard case.

Everything was going well at first, but I’m now noticing that some keys don’t register consistently, especially the spacebar and a few on the top row. Sometimes I have to press harder than usual.

I'm running postmarketOS and haven’t done much customization beyond updates.

Is this a known issue with the keyboard hardware, or should I be looking into software configs or firmware?


  Any recommended brands/models?

Has anyone successfully upgraded the PineBook Pro’s SSD? Any recommended brands/models?


  Are you interested in a new design of Pine laptop?
Posted by: CleanEnvironment - 04-22-2025, 08:25 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - No Replies

Hi Pine designers,

Are you or anyone interested in designing a pine laptop extending from Pine64 phone to support 4G (5G) VoLTE and WiFi? The hardware and peripheral can be similar to GPD Pocket, a more powerful CPU,  keyboard, Ethernet, USB A, USB C and HDMI, the size can be around 10 inches, support Linux distributions.

If anyone is interested, I am happy to voluntarily join the design and development, more details can be discussed privately


  Case for Star64?
Posted by: garyd - 04-22-2025, 12:41 PM - Forum: Getting Started - No Replies

Hi,

I've been using a Star64 SBC since before the pro model came out... Has anyone created a printable enclosure for this board? If not, does anyone make one? Also, for anyone finding this random post I have found DietPi to have excellent support for this hardware and highly recommend it for novices and advanced Linux nerds alike. Keep in mind that I'm only using it as a headless server for DHCP, ntp, and dnscrypt-proxy so be sure to check the release notes if you're curious about a specific application.

  Freezing and force rebooting on PinePhone
Posted by: HHawks - 04-22-2025, 03:10 AM - Forum: PostmarketOS on PinePhone - Replies (4)

Hello everyone, I have been having an issue with the PinePhone. It sometimes randomly freezes (the screen is unresponsive, but the phones still works) and then after 10 seconds, it forcibly reboots and makes a clicking/popping sound (same sound when the camera starts up). The phone seems to be still working as I have been in a call when that happened.

However, the logs don't get saved after the force reboot, so I don't know what's causing the issue. Does anyone have any idea what the issue may be?


  the camera apps does not work on arch linux sxmo
Posted by: moriartyo - 04-21-2025, 03:08 AM - Forum: PinePhone Pro Software - No Replies

good afternoon, I ran into a problem with camera apps, snapshot and megapixels don't work on arch linux with sxmo, but snapshot works fine on postmarket os. I added the user to the Video group, this changed the output while the snapshot was running and a window appeared asking for permission to access the camera, but he continued not to see it. I started using ppp relatively recently, so I apologize for the possible lack of information.


  Best Battery Life
Posted by: luney - 04-21-2025, 12:34 AM - Forum: PinePhone Software - Replies (2)

Hello folks, 

I am about to repair the broken screen on my Pinephone that has been sitting in a drawer for years. 

I want to attempt to daily drive. Given that I haven't tested and distro-hopped this device in years, I thought I would appeal to you all for info. 

What is currently the best distro and UI for battery life running phone calls, texts, and perhaps GPS. 

For background, I have no issue with using a command line. I am looking for function over bells and whistles. Calls, text, working GPS is a plus but not required. 

Also remind me, Wifi will drain more than cellular data? 

Thanks for your time.
