I am in Ireland, looking to buy a used PINEBOOK Pro. If you have one to sell please PM me!

Thanks!

I'm running Gentoo with glibc on PBP.

I'm interested in switching to musl. As I understand it, it should be done via reinstalling, which I want to avoid since it took quite some time to set things up.

Is it possible to just untar the stage3 tarball onto / filesystem from liveusb? Would such OS boot?

I know I would need to rebuild all the installed software, but I just want things to boot now.

Overall, what are the cons of using musl on PBP?

Im looking for a Pinbook pro for sale in North America or online. I have been looking all around on the internet and haven’t found anything, so I was hoping someone would have one here or know where I could get one.

I just got my PBP back from a repair shop after keyboard, mouse and USB inputs all suddenly and simultaneously stopped working. The technician found that they work on mains power supply with the battery disconnected, and suggested I replace the battery. He and I both searched for the right model, but didn't find anything. Is it available anywhere?

Hi, I was looking to potentially buy this device. I'm debating between the pinebook pro and the pinebook. I do know the pinebook is slower, but i'm assuming maybe if I install a minimal install of arch with i3 the performance will be decent?

Also i was wondering how the battery life is. I'm currently using x200 which gives me a 3 - 4 hr battery life. So anything around this range would be great or anything over an hour of battery I would be satisfied. 

I appreciate anyone's input.

Hello all!

I can't help but notice that WebGL doesn't work on any browser that I tested. Is this a Mobian thing, a browser thing, a PinePhone thing, or a settings thing? Do we know what the roadmap looks like?

Thanks

you can't do a search on this forum if the search expression is shorter than 4 characters, or only consists of words that are shorter than that. this is quite a limitation because IT is full of three-letter abbreviations. for example, I wanted to look into the topic of LTE, but of course I can't search for either "LTE", "4G" or "LTE 4G". this is just the most recent example from the many so far.

can the administrators please lower or remove this limit? it would make the forum much more useful!

I have a modified clusterboard using the original CAD, but cannot get any data over the network switch using default register values.

I've tried to get the values from the 24C08A SPI flash chip on an original board but broke it while removing it. 

Is there a data file or documented register values available for the SPI falsh I can use?

The original board seems to need these parameters tow work both ways properly, so I suppose it is mandatory, unless there are some changes to the boot strap resisitors that would make it work at least at 100Mb/s.

Thanks!

I recently ordered pinetime with pinebook screw, and i see alert status on 17track now.

What happened? What should i do?

If there's ever a major revision to the PBP's design, it might be nice to have a "disk" (really bus) activity light. That would make it easier to detect problems prior to the OS loading, (Might cost too much to revise the case and board.)

The other suggestion would probably be easier to implement; put the socket (USB, audio, &c) silkscreen labels on the keyboard top rather than the sides, (obviously, pointing to the locations). The text could be a little larger (hence more legible). Generally, one inserts cables and jacks while above the keyboard, rather than peering at the side.
