apk update issues Failed to open database: Permission denied
and
apk install (software name) issues ERROR: Unable to lock database: Permission denied

what could possibly be wrong here? It's a fres install of Postmarket§od-21.03-SXMO-1.41

after updatin by SXMO's update menu, I'll get a text message on top of screen..

but as there is no keyboard (yet) available, the system will not boot anymore.

Hello,

I have a problem with the RTC Backup Batterie Holder and the PIN H64B.

I connected the RTC like the installation guide and used only one C2032 battery. 

The battery goes dead after about 7 days.

Are there any known issues?

Possibly I'm doing something very wrong here but I have disabled the notifications in "Settings" for "Software", and when I launch "Software" I also disabled the automatic updates and the notifications. The result of my changes is that not only does "Software" check for updates, but also I still get notifications. Is there a fundamental misunderstanding on my side or do I have to file a bug somewhere?

can someone tell me how to download freetube

what do i have to do to get firefox working again?

Just noticed Fossmint (fossmint.com) posted article listing Pine64's Pinebook Pro among their
top 10 linux laptops!  Others included are the likes of Dell, ASUS, System76 and Lenovo.  Go Pine!

Hi,

I just received my Pinecil and wanted to check its features. When I plug it in, even if set at reasonable temperatures below 200 °C, the tip starts glowing after a few seconds...

Is this a known problem?

Hi folks!

Sorry for the noob question but what's the point of a cluster? Is it a 28 core, 14 GB RAM machine? Will an application e.g. firefox browser use the power/ram of all sopine modules together? Since the modules are connected over ethernet, how does this work?
I thought about an replacement of my x86 Intel i7 and don't know if this is the way to go for me? (just related to performance, I know about SW limitation on ARM)

Can you enlighten me?

大家好，我只是想将pinebook pro恢复为出厂默认设置，并且想擦除闪存，所以找到了以下命令：
flash_erase / dev / mtd0 0 0
我想知道的是，仅运行上面的命令即可将spi flash擦除为默认值？ 

如果有人知道，请告诉我。

谢谢。

I don't know whether to blame hardware or software.  I'm using Daniel Thompson's Bullseye, I've been running it a few months.

In the past week or so the numlock suddenly sticks on, and you can't type much because all the keys with little numbers in addition to letters will only type numbers.  I can't turn it off with F10/Numlock, it does nothing, other keys like brightness also don't work, there's probably firmware missing or something.  It's mostly minor, but when the numlock sticks I have to ssh in from another machine and reboot it.  It just happened for the 4th time.

Searching the PineBook Pro area of this forum for numlock doesn't seem to find anything, anybody else seeng this? Oh, I use the ANSI keyboard and that's up to date as far as I know.
