Does anyone know if the RK3566 supports proper suspending to ram (deep sleep)?  I downloaded the docs that were available on the wiki, but if they had and answer this question, I didn't see it / know how to interpret it.

And, if yes, do you know what events will wake it?  E.g., wake on gpio?  wake on timer? wake on lan?

Thanks

I could not find a posting on this topic.
Is this situation specific to my instance of the phone or not? Is anyone else observing these things?

With my phone, I have to use Megi's workaround here

I get the HDMI on the monitor but in short time (like within a minute) , the display does any and all of these: flickers, shears, wraps, blanks out and comes back to stable for a bit and then repeat after some ad hoc short period of time.

It kindof seems to happen when I interact with the phonephone --> using the HDMI display e.g. click on something or start to type.

I see zero messages from dmesg.
I have swapped mice, keyboards, HDMI cables, monitors and the issue remains.
I have tried with battery at all various charge levels and charger plugged in or out.
I have tried different HDMI/hubs

No matter on any of the hardware above swap-outs the issue remains and with no messages in output from dmesg. I figure that the issue is hardware in the phone.
I have not studied up to be a hardware guru.

Any insight to the cause and fix would be great.
I leave these observations for those who know stuff.

Thank you

I've got Debian 11 (Bullseye) up and booting successfully to the Xfce4 desktop. Thing is, switching to tty (text) consoles using the Ctrl+Alt+fx doesn't appear to do anything at all except hide the mouse cursor on the desktop. I can get it back by pressing Ctrl+Alt+f7.
Also, the typical Linux boot messages stay hidden behind a blank screen, which only comes alive when the graphical window manager is loaded. I haven't encountered this issue with other distros I've tested, such as Armbian (Xfce4) or Manjaro (KDE 5).
Is there a way to get the text consoles active in Debian without resorting to a serial console?

Update: No success, even after having changed two pertinent lines in my /etc/grub.d/10_linux to read:
linux ${rel_dirname}/${basename} root=${linux_root_device_thisversion} ro ${args} vga=normal nofb nomodeset video=vesafb:off

Still no boot messages, and no way to switch from the default graphical to another tty.

Update 2: Tried 'nomodeset' without any other parameters; no good results.

Update 3: Replaced lightdm with gdm3. No difference whatsover.

Update 4: Cleared the boot sector of the microSD card and reinstalled Debian 11 without Desktop or graphical environment. The screen is still blank, but I can seem to switch between tty 's and login as root to initiate a clean shutdown. No text on screen (in fact, nothing on screen) but some kind of signal is definitely being output to monitor. I then connected the RockPro64 to an HDMI TV set and got exactly the same (non-) results. I should note that Armbian Focal has been tested on my copy and works fine rendering both text and graphics, so it's probably not an issue with the hardware.

Am I to assume that switching between tty consoles isn't doable, at least not without a serial console?

Is there any image which I can put on a microSD card which will boot Linux on the Quartz64?

Is it possible/practical to backup my contacts somehow, then restore them after I've reinstalled the operating system?

If so, a step-by-step guide to achieving this would be greatly appreciated.

If you live in Alaska, this could matter to you.

GCI data works on my Pine Phone. From their website, the settings are:

Quote:[Consult your phone manual for steps to enter the GPRS (Data) settings, these settings are normally used for Smartphones, but may be used for other devices. Please note: These settings are case sensitive.
Name: GCI WEB
Access Point Name (APN): web.gci
Authentication Type: None
Type: Default
Security PIN (if requested): 1234
Enable APN (On APN Settings screen GCI WEB should have a blue or green dot showing it is enabled)

Good day!

As is evident from the attached image (which is from a Housekeeping blog post),
the community around Pine64 makes rackmount cluster cases.

I think it would make for a fine product -- and certainly, I'd buy one.

Is there anything that stops this from being productivised?

Was this idea even considered?

I have tried a USB WiFi adapter (it's an odroid one) but I'm not having any luck with the Android build.
Would the "optional SDIO Wifi/BT interface" work?
Where do I get one?
Is it this one? https://pine64.com/product/rockpro64-1x1...-0-module/ ?

Is there a Signal Client for Arch Arm yet?

Hello,

tried using the yubikey 5C on my pbp but cant get it to recognize the device.
I was looking at this wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/YubiKey and installed yibikey-manager and yubioath-desktop.
After that enabled pscd.service and tried to see if yubi authenticator sees the device but was not the case.

lsusb output did not show the key either.

Any ideas on what I could do to make this work ? Already trying two days but no luck so far
