I received my PinePhone Beta Edition today. So I run the system update and tried some of the features.

I wanted to test the video playback but "Clip" was stuck at the splash screen. I then checked the installed apps and saw there's also "mpv" available. Running either of them via the Terminal or the App menu causes a core dump.

I checked the Wiki and such and didn't really figure out where I have to create a ticket for such a problem. Any pointers are appreciated.

I'm on a updated manjaro image that came with the pinephone beta edition.

I'm trying to get spacebar to compile.  To help fix some bugs in this thing.

It has a required library called libqofono . But when I go to install it on a mostly stock system it complains about existing files in the install directory.

libqofono: /usr/share/qt5/mkspecs/features/qofono-qt5.prf exists in filesystem (owned by libqofono-qt5)

And many others.

Was this library compile and installed with make install manually on the shipped image? I'm not sure how to proceed from this.

Tomorrow, May 15th we will present Sxmo at AlpineConf 2021 (online). Our talk is scheduled at 14:30 UTC / 16:30 CEST / 10:30 EDT .

Feel free to attend or simply watch the presentation at a later time at your leisure!

hello,

decided to post my query here but it is really a continuation of my possible modem problems in the hardware section,

https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=13885

in trying to understand my problem with my limited knowledge i consulted the pin64 wiki page - modem section,

https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PinePhone

and realized i had to use minicom to get at the information i wanted. i downloaded minicom and am now stuck at how exactly to set up my serial device in minicom! i would like to be able to see the volte list in the above link for the command, AT+QMBNCFG="list". i have a feeling this may be part of my problem. i am on a budget network of telus in canada, koodo/telus. when i enter the command, minicom -D /dev/ttyUSB2, again from the above link, i get the message 'cannot open serial port ttyUSB2.

any help would be appreciated,

thanks

I just received my (sealed) PineTime and naturally updated the firmware to version 1.0 (according to Getting Started and the Wiki Guide).

I'm pretty impressed by it, except for one thing:

The vibration for notifications is not noticable. When the watch lies plain on the table and a notification is received I can hear a faint sound. On the wrist I feel nothing at all.

I looked at the Quick Actions menu, toggled the notification settings on and off (green and gray I presume) a couple of times, rebooted the watch, but to no avail.

Is it possible this is a software issue that could be resolved in a newer version, or could this be a hardware defect?

I found this issue about the duration of the vibration, but I don't think the duration is the problem. There is no vibration noticable.

Here's how we port the uLisp Interpreter to PineCone BL602... And write graphical programs with Blockly (Scratch)

sorry stupid question: How would I add more weather locations to the weather script, for example my home town Zurich, Switzerland? Thanks!

Is there any update from the Manjaro plasma team on getting GSM SIM cards to work properly with ofono or any work arounds? I really enjoyed playing with plasma on my phone for a few days but had to switch to Mobian because while I don’t like it near as much modem-manager at least works properly with GSM.

Has anyone SSH'ed into the PinePhone through a USB cable on a Windows (7) machine? I was able to do it quite easily on my Linux computer so I know that it's something that can be done (at least on Linux), but trying to do it on Windows seems like a different beast.

The Pinephone shows up in Devices and Printers but it has a yellow exclamation mark. In Device Manager is shows up as a "CDC ECM" device again with a yellow exclamation mark. I'm guessing I would need a driver that that doesn't exist but I thought I would ask.

Edit: I've gotten it to work, unfortunately I'm too tired to explain how I did it right now.
