hiya

i modified a svkbd with new layout especially for dosbox playing. Heres what it looks like now

Some downsides of svkbd:
- no multitouch - either you walk or shot
- shifts/alts/ctrls - are in on/off state mode. So its not well fitted to play with games that use these keys [eg: pinball fantasies with shifts]
- no easy way to implement diagonals (arrows)

but.. some games even with that setup will be perfectly playable: [Heartlight (freeware), TetrisQueen (freeware).. etc..]
tell me what you think.

Calls and sms/mms works in plasma, manjaro.. Quite good! Is it not the same on debian at all? I would prefer debian, and will use it when it becomes good enough.

Is it possible to simulate PineCone BL602 with WebAssembly... So that we can drag-and-drop Blockly uLisp apps and preview them in the Web Browser? Let's explore...

Simulate RISC-V BL602 with WebAssembly, uLisp and Blockly

Phone gesture (press and hold, then swipe up) doesn't seem to work with the mouse and external display.

I have the PinePhone Manjaro Community Edition with the USB-C Docking Bar.

In the Pine store I did not find any information about the maximum Watts that can be delivered through the docking bar.

Some other docking bars sold (e.g. one from Anker) have a rating, such as 65W PD. Does anyone know this value of the Pine docking bar?

The USB-C dock is often attached to my laptop which can be charged via USB-C PD, ideally with 90W. I'm am planning to get a 90W or 100W PD charger and am curios if that would allow me to charge my laptop through the pine USB-C dock.



Thanks for any help

I’m planning to order a Pinephone Beta soon (150$ version). In my case I live in Romania and my cellphone provider is Vodafone. I can't quite remember or tell if it's a sim card or microsim, hopefully I'll fine either way? I wanted to be sure others with this provider can confirm everything works fine... by everything meaning at least calls, SMS, and 3G / 4G internet (I don't use MMS). So to EU users of the Pinephone, what's your experience with Vodafone SIM cards?

Hello and greetings! I'm planning to order a Pinephone Beta soon (150$ version) ideally next month if money allows. I use Manjaro Linux on my desktop and having a phone with it too will be a dream come true. I'm looking to know a few things first however.

On this one I've been trying to find an answer for ages but no amount of online searching helped. One thing I wish to know first relates to the camera: I see in the specs that it's 5MP for back and 2MB for front, but can find absolutely no information on how it films video! More specifically I wish to know the following:

1. First and foremost, what resolution and frame rate is video shot at? I need to be able to record in at least 1080p @ 30 FPS, the abilities of my current phone (an ancient Samsung Galaxy S3). I'm actually hoping filming at 60 FPS is going to become possible for me after this upgrade, but can take 30 as long as the resolution is 1920x1080 and not less.
   
2. Is the video format mp4? Asking as I remember old phones had weird ones (such as 3gp) which some applications couldn't even play properly. That was very long ago however.
   
3. This one's less important but still good to know: Can you use the flash while filming for shooting night time video? On that matter, is there a night setting to make video shot in darkness brighter at the cost of extra blur, so even if it's blurry you can at least see something?
   

I read somewhere that you could flash an sd card with like 16 distros if you wanted.. And have the ability to choose between those and test stuff out. Is that the case?
Or would i have to remove the default OS? This one: https://xnux.eu/p-boot-demo/

Hi,
has anyone experienced loss of sound output devices since an update (possible pipewire) 2 days ago ?
I re-flashed last edge posh installer and sound worked as before.
After reinstalling all updates sound output devices was gone again.

As i didn't find any clues in the forums and on the pmos matrix channel i'd thought i ask here if this is only me or it's a known problem.

This worked a few weeks ago. I have a KDE Pinephone that is now running Mobian and Phosh.
I have T-mobile sim card and I have used it before to make calls/send some text messages.
Now it will not work...

I have tried toggling the physical switch for the modem, ran a modem reset command, some other command systemctl eg5-....

Still nothing with the modem. Not sure what's wrong.

The phone is fully charged now but it has drained before.

Any thoughts/things I can try?

I don't know if it's a software or hardware problem.

My sim card is a nano type but it came wrapped in a regular sized sim adapter/I haven't punched it out/how I used it before when it was working.

WiFi and Bluetooth are both working normally as far as I'm aware, haven't done anything physical to the phone i.e. it just sits on my desk.
