Hi all,

I'm trying multiple ways to try to play music on Spotify on Mobian.

First I've tried to install spotify from web, writing code on terminal like they indicate on the official web, but there is no funcionality.

Later I've installed Librespot, like another colleague mentioned here on forum too, but after having it installed, I cannot run it.

And the ultimate solution I've found is to install Mopidy, but after installing it, it simply doesn't open when I click on icon.

So, Is there any solution in order to play music with Spotify on Mobian??

Thanks so much in advance.

Hello, I'm using phosh 11 with updates. Now, I can't seem to mount a usb drive from the docking station which worked easily on phosh 10 and plasma-mobile. In dmesg i see,

"usb 1-1: device descriptor read/64, error, -71"

Also the terminal only scrolls intermittently and stopped inputting character at all. Close and open didn't work. I finally had to reboot to get it working again.

Thanks.

my Manjaro-ARM-plasma-mobile-pinephone-dev-20210616.img.xz
fetches for updates, recognizes 0Byte update size, asks for a restart, then mentions system up to date.
After restart, splash screen allows to open discover or repair system, where repair system does not change anything.
Also says Failed to update 1 package, failed to update database: unexpected system error
Now on open discover the system will be fetching updates again (very slow), then will message up to date.

So, do we have an error here, or dont' we have one?

As, on restart, I will get the message open discover or repair system again. And Discover will attest the system is up to date again.

I have read the wiki page https://blog.mobian-project.org/posts/20...le-distro/ but I don't seem to have a file /extrepo_mobian.sources in /etc/apt/sources.list.d

I do have a file mobian.list which contains:

deb http://repo.mobian-project.org/ bullseye main non-free


so I am not sure how to proceed.

Hi everybody, I've just bought a RockPro64.

Yesterday I wanted to try it out and flashed OpenWRT onto a SD card and powered it.
I was getting a white LED almost immediately and I was able to login using SSH and the web GUI.

Today I wanted to actually setup the board, I tried to boot using the same process and using the same working SD card. I couldn't get any LED expect the green power LED.
I tried reflashing the SD card with OpenWRT again, still nothing.
Tried connecting the HDMI, no signal.
Tried to flash Armbian Buster for the RockPro64. Same thing no HDMI signal and no LED.
I also tried to connect to the board using serial. When I'm trying to use 9600,8n1 I'm getting just an infinite number of `?` in the terminal,
when using 1500000,8n1 I'm getting `▒`



I tried flashing the OS on two different SD cards.
At first I tried flashing using Etcher on Windows and using PuTTY to connect.



Since that wasn't working, I booted into Linux. Redownloaded the OpenWRT version I previously was able to boot.
Flashed a SD card using:

We received our Pinephones and have cycled through almost all of the available OS options. None of them really consistently seem to work for receiving and making phone calls. I am currently running Arch and it seems to be the least glitchy, and my husband has Mobian. We really need, above all else, to be able to make and receive calls. We are in the country with solid 3G and spotty 4G.  Arch gets calls most of the time, makes calls most of the time, but if there is any switching between 3G/4G then sound is lost or call is dropped. Mobian seems to be worse. We really like KDE but got nowhere with phone calls on that. What is the scoop? We are currently trying PureTalk for service, and have entertained switching back to Verizon, but my suspicion is that it is the phone/software,.not the service. Help!

I'd like to attach an SSD to the Quartz64 Model-A and put them in a case. 

I don't see an M.2 slot mentioned, so I guess a SATA SSD is what I need?

Does the hardware follow some existing convention, so that I might be able to find some little plastic case with the openings for Ethernet and power in the right place?

Quote:Hello,

Although hardware acceleration seems to be enabled in the options:

Tools ▸ Options ▸ LibreOffice ▸ View

it does not seem active in practice: Calc is extremely slow, even when switching cells with the arrows and there are large black artifacts in the window from time to time in Writer.

Under linux ARM, some programs support hardware acceleration (chromium, firefox ...) others seem not to support it (LibreOffice, Gimp...).

Will a USB fast charger make my Pinebook Pro charge faster? If so, what model do you recommend?

How can I minimize power usage in Manjaro(e.g. turning off CPU cores, lowering default brightness, etc.)
