| Pinetab Mobian optimization |
|

I am starting thread for tips about optimizing Mobian on the Pinetab. As built-in RAM is limited and the Pinetab seems to suffer significantly from it, I would like to find the settings that yields the best possible performance for running firefox, geary and other programs and apps.
Here are my current settings, which I think give some performance improvements although my Pinetab is quite laggy still at times and even freezes occassionally.
/etc/default/zramswap
Code: PERCENT=100
#SIZE=512
PRIORITY=100
CORES=1
/etc/sysctl.conf
Code: vm.vfs_cache_pressure=500
vm.swappiness=100
vm.dirty_background_ratio=1
vm.dirty_ratio=50
Please tell me if these settings are of any help to you or if you have other settings that makes the Pinetab faster and more responsive.
Here are some memory stats with the above settings:
After a fresh reboot:
Code: ~$ free -h
total used free shared buff/cache available
Mem: 1,9Gi 795Mi 443Mi 56Mi 690Mi 938Mi
Swap: 1,9Gi 0B 1,9Gi
With firefox running:
Code: ~$ free -h
total used free shared buff/cache available
Mem: 1,9Gi 1,3Gi 63Mi 161Mi 551Mi 319Mi
Swap: 1,9Gi 16Mi 1,9Gi
With firefox and geary running:
Code: ~$ free -h
total used free shared buff/cache available
Mem: 1,9Gi 1,3Gi 66Mi 180Mi 542Mi 294Mi
Swap: 1,9Gi 330Mi 1,6Gi

| Writing an image to on-system emmc |

I see great tools and extensions to others for creating bootable SD cards - thanks!
I am still fuzzy on flashing on-system emmc. So far I am guessing it involves something like Jumpdrive and then the command below?
wget 172.16.42.2/u.img -O - | dd bs=4M conv=noerror,sync of=/dev/mmcblk2
Thanks for clarification. I cannot seem to see another and the trial to 'dd' a live SD card were as stable as expected.
Cheers

| Python3-yoyo errors |

I installed Mobian to the emmc on my pinephone. After resizing the partition on it's first boot, I decided to do a full system upgrade with
Code: sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
Unfortunately, I encountered an error with dpkg trying to unpack python3-yoyo.
I am unsure of where to look to find more information about this error as a Google search doesn't bring up any results, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

| How to enable Ethernet with UBPorts and convergence dock? |
|
Posted by: piney-tim - 11-27-2020, 07:31 PM - Forum: UBPorts on PinePhone

Wondering if anyone knows how to get an ethernet connection working through the convergence dock with Ubuntu Touch (build #90). I have the Manjaro convergence version of the pinephone and ethernet worked transparently with multiple Manjaro builds so I know the hardware works but I can't get Ubuntu Touch to recognize it.
I found a reference somewhere to modprobe CDCEther which outputs "Module CDCEther not found in directory /lib/modules/5.6.0-pine64" but I have no idea if that's the issue. Can anyone offer some help or a pointer to the right place to ask? Thx!
