  How To Lay Hands on a True 64-bit Debian Install?
Posted by: vandys - 11-29-2020, 02:05 PM - Forum: Linux on RockPro64 - Replies (4)

I'm a little but befuddled.  Debian claims to have "support" for the RockPro64, but various installs of their images either hang in the middle of booting, or make some indecipherable statement about kernel modules.

MrFixIt's minimal image boots and looks GREAT.  But it's armhf, and I really need MongoDB on the machine.

A Devuan arm64 install img would be fantastic!  Or how I can I put together a Debian boot image which actually works (and is 64-bit)?

Most OS's mentioned here don't make it clear if they're armhf or aarch64, and it's pretty tedious to be pulling and burning entire install images just to find out.

TIA,
Andy Valencia


  Contact app broken on edge
Posted by: jmorris - 11-29-2020, 01:39 PM - Forum: PostmarketOS on PinePhone - Replies (3)

Been seeing a problem with the Edge version now for over a week.  Can anyone else duplicate it?

Open Contacts.  View one, edit it.  Open the additional fields with the three dots and fill something in, I have been using Nickname.  Save.  Wait.  Contacts closes abnormally and going back you find the edit didn't stick.

This is in ~/.cache/tinydm.log

Code:
dbus-daemon[3021]: [session uid=10000 pid=3021] Activating service name='org.gnome.Contacts' requested by ':1.17' (uid=10000 pid=3087 comm="/usr/libexec/phosh ")

Pretty sure nothing is randomly corrupted on my phone.  apk audit --system --check-permissions comes back clean.  Made a fresh user account and set it as the autologin user and it still happens.

Another, possibly related, issue is when SMS messages appear, sometimes you can click them to view, sometimes you click and nothing happens.  I'm on a paygo plan that sends a billing notice showing remaining balance, etc. after every transaction.  Been getting billing notices and no call or text to go with it.

  Convergence package USB-C Docking Bar for Wired Ethernet
Posted by: piney-tim - 11-29-2020, 12:13 PM - Forum: PinePhone Accessories - No Replies

Trying to use the USB-C docking bar that comes with the convergence package for wired ethernet with Ubuntu Touch with no success. Has anyone else tried it and gotten it to work? If so, can you help me with some tips?

On my Manjaro community edition pinephone with ubuntu touch flashed and dock connected the "ip link" command shows no eth0 but three other links:
- lo (loopback),
- wlan0 (wifi)
- wwan0 (cell data)

So far I've found no other information about how to get it working. it works fine with manjaro.

  PINEBOOK Pro USB-C Docking Deck compatibility
Posted by: zxorg - 11-29-2020, 01:33 AM - Forum: General - Replies (8)

Hello people, just saw on twitter the new PINEBOOK Pro USB-C Docking Deck.
I have 2 question though:

  1. Does this USB-C dock work with any USB-C/Thunderbolt 3 port say MSi notebook?
  2. In my consideration the cable is too short. Some notebooks have the USB-C on the back of the computer so you need at least half a meter to put the dock properly on the side, otherwise you have to buy an extension.


  How to update the OS
Posted by: markc - 11-28-2020, 11:26 PM - Forum: Manjaro on PinePhone - Replies (8)

This is embarrasing but I briefly saw the option to update the OS when I first turned on my Manjaro phone but now I can't find how to update the OS and google is not my friend today. Is there a video somewhere that CLEARLY shows how to update the OS?

Also, FWIW, it took me 1/2 an hour of wasted time on youtube just to find out that the initial lockscreen passcode is 123456.


  Uborts OpenStore + Mobian?

I see some apps in the OpenStore that I would like to use, but I'm running Mobian. Is there a way to run Ubuntu Touch apps on Mobian?

  Delivery date. Very rough estimate will do :)
Posted by: xemute - 11-28-2020, 02:04 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (2)

Hi,
Sorry if i've missed this in any of the stickies. I was just wondering if there's somewhere i can check on the progress of delivery of my pinephone? When i ordered it (21st Nov, and i'm in the UK), I wasn't given a courier option like i've seen some people talk about on here, nor was i given any kind of reference number for the order, just an email that the order is being processed.  I'm not demanding 'where is my pinephone' or anything like that (i'm a very patient bloke Smile ), just asking if there's anyway i can see updates and stuff like that?
Once again, apologies if this is in a sticky post somewhere and i've not noticed it.

Many thanks,
mute
