| Encrypting only /home? |

I'd like to create a new flashable Manjaro+Plasma image, but with an encrypted partition dedicated to the /home folder and a corresponding entry in /etc/crypttab. When the phone boots up, I would expect a passphrase prompt (will it happen?). How would I be able to type in a passphrase on the screen, given that it the OS hasn't booted up completely yet? Is there a way to add a virtual keyboard at boot time?
Or better yet: is it possible to delay the decryption until after the phone boots up, but just before the first lock screen? That way, a virtual keyboard would be more feasible. This is how Sailfish X did it, anyway. Any ideas would be very welcome.

| Launching OS in the SD card from p-boot in MMC |
|

Hi,
I'm using p-boot as the boot loader and it's awesome. Much more convenient and easy than UBoot.
I thought I could have an SD card inserted with an OS but without a boot sector and install p-boot to the MMC card and have two boot entries, one to boot the MMC OS and the other for the SD one, so I can easily switch between both OSs without having to remove and insert the SD card.
I almost got it working. So although the SD card is inserted, since it doesn't have a boot sector, the boot sequence fails back to MMC and loads p-boot with the boot entries for MMC and SD. The MMC one works and boots the MMC OS, but the SD one just leads to a black screen.
This is my boot.conf file:
Code: no = 0
name = MMC card
atf = ../../usr/share/p-boot/fw.bin
dtb = ../../boot/dtbs/5.12.19-MANJARO-ARM/allwinner/sun50i-a64-pinephone-1.2.dtb
linux = ../../boot/vmlinux-5.12.19-MANJARO-ARM
bootargs = loglevel=4 console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200 earlycon=uart,mmio32,0x01c28000 consoleblank=0 root=PARTUUID=dffd8215-02 rw rootwait quiet bootsplash.bootfile=bootsplash-themes/manjaro/bootsplash
splash = ../../usr/share/p-boot/pboot2.argb
no = 1
name = SD card
atf = ../../usr/share/p-boot/fw.bin
dtb = ../../boot/dtbs/5.12.19-MANJARO-ARM/allwinner/sun50i-a64-pinephone-1.2.dtb
linux = ../../boot/vmlinux-5.12.19-MANJARO-ARM
bootargs = loglevel=4 console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200 earlycon=uart,mmio32,0x01c28000 consoleblank=0 root=PARTUUID=42516a04-02 rw rootwait quiet bootsplash.bootfile=bootsplash-themes/manjaro/bootsplash
splash = ../../usr/share/p-boot/pboot2.argb
I tried using either the PARTUUID as the root parameter as shown above or also /dev/mmcblk0p2, but none of them worked.
What am I doing wrong? Or am I trying something impossible?

| Phosh: Idles to Lockscreen Without Powering Off Display |

I have my Pinephone with Arch+Phosh installed set to turn off the display after one minute, the problem is that instead of turning off the display it will switch to the lock screen and stay powered on indefinitely. This is remedied when I restart Phosh with
Code: # systemctl restart phosh.service
I've re-installed Arch+Phosh but the problem persists. It's a custom build so it could be one of a hundred things causing this to happen.
I looked to see if anyone else was having this problem but I couldn't find anything about it. I played around with the phosh.service file thinking the problem had something to do with the order Phosh is started but I haven't gotten anything to work. Anyone have this problem?
Edit: I solved the problem, it was caused by
Code: /usr/bin/gjs /usr/share/gnome-shell/org.gnome.ScreenSaver

hi...just received my new phone..right out of the box every image and character is doubled (a sort of wobbling mirror image just next to the original one) so its very hard to see and select anything at all...tried several distros...all have the same problem ...its everywhere whatever I try to run...so would this indicate a hardware issue?...the screen or its connections?.....disappointing if so as its brand new......or perhaps there is something I can do to fix it?
At a bit of a loss and haven't even crossed the start line yet!
thanks for any clues....

| Night shift for arch-phosh wayland |

I've tried gnome night light through both gui and gsettings in terminal, which had no effect on the screen, and after trying redshift and looking around the internet, it almost appears that there's no available night shift application for wayland that works in arch-phosh.
Question: How can I get a night shift application running on arch-phosh wayland?

Greetings all, I'm a brand newbie to the Rock64, after purchasing one from an Ebay vendor. I have some exxperience with the Raspberry Pi, as well as some Ubuntu experience on one of my laptops. I therefore wanted to try Ubuntu 18.04 OS. but I'm having trouble understanding how to get it on an SD. I read the instructions, which sound very similar to the Raspberry Pi way of doing it, IE: downloading image, placing the image file on the microsd card via Win32 Imager (Using Win10 laptop) plug it in and go.
The Win32 Imager is looking for a .img file. What was downloaded from the github site was a .img.tar file. Not being sure how to deal with that, I unzipped the .tar and lo and behold there were 7 different images in the tar. Can someone please explain to me how to deal with this? Thanks.

Any ideas how to get mobile data to work on Manjaro plasma? I'm using Vodafone UK and keep getting a notification ' The modem shows no carrier' and 'IP configuration was unavailable'. I've tried 'sudo systemctl status ofonoctl' and it reports inactive (dead). I've tried to restart ofonoctl but still nothing.
