Hi. I'm using Manjaro on PineBook Pro and I'm trying to install XMonad.

There is no official package for this WM,  and packages from aur cannot be built (Haskell infrastructure for aarch64 in Manjaro seems broken at all).

I installed GHC and Cabal from Nix repository. I even had successfully built XMonad once, but it failed to recompile itself after an update.

I can now build XMonad binary using GHC from Nix, but it won't start because of different versions of glibc in the system and in the nix environment.

Have anyone a success in running XMonad in Arch? If so, what toolchain you used?

I am trying to get Vanilla Debian up and running on the H64B.

I have build Arm-Trusted-Firmware and U-Boot from git/source and got the u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin file which I copied with "sudo dd if=u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin of=/dev/sdX bs=1024 seek=8" to my eMMC-Module.

My fstab is as below, with /boot flagged as bootable by fdisk.

/dev/mmcblk1p1    /boot    ext2    defaults    0    2
/dev/mmcblk1p2    /           ext4    errors=remount-ro    0    1
/dev/mmcblk1p3    swap   swap    defaults    0    0

Then powered up the H64B only shows that he has loaded u-boot and then stops/hangs and does not carry on to load Linux from /boot.

Am I missing something ???
Any adivce would be greatly appreciated.

Hey, guys, has anyone successfully launched libgdx sdk? I just wanted to try to do a bit of game development, but it just fails with
"wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32"
I reckon the reason is 64 and 32 bit compatibility but i am not sure how to fix that. If anyone had encountered similar issue before please tell if is even possible to solve it.
Feel free to ask for any additional information

Hi,
Would it be possible to upgrade from the pinebook Ubuntu 20.04 image to 20.10 beta? Does anyone run Ubuntu currently? Does the Ubuntu os work fine on pinebook?

Hello!


I am a middle of the road hacker and I am comfortable with early release hardware and software. However I can not solder, especially anything small - I lack the dexterity (even with a microscope)

I like to play with a PinePhone. To have Mobian running with the option, using a UBC-C cable/Hub to have HDMI output when needed.

Concerned if I purchase today, my lack of soldering skills is an issue. Is pinephone purchase today 1.2a+ with this issue fixed ?

Thanks,

I just got an NVMe adapter for my Pinebook Pro and have installed it with a Kingston A2000 250GB NVMe SSD.  This is an SSD that others have reported success with on the wiki.

The boot process stalls for 60s and then I get a timeout error like this:

Figured there's room for some fun. Post your customized layout, icons, tips, ect..

Hi all,

I am using a Swedish vpn named mullvad and their debian package is for amd64. As you know, the Pinephone runs on arm64 and after "dpkg --add-architecture amd64" I am still left with an unsatisfied dependency: iputils-ping. Now, I stopped myself just short of installing it since it removes inetutils-ping, mobian-base, mobian-phone-base and mobian-phosh just to name a few. Is this a dead end and should I go for installing open vpn and adding a config file from my vpn in there instead? What method do you guys use to run your vpn on the Pinephone?

Appriciate any tips or advice.

Hello everyone, I have noticed that if the Telegram window is closed, the program closes and notifications are not received.
How can it be minimized instead of closed? Or what is the same, leave it running in the background, once the window is open.

Hey, both on the pre-installed PmOS Phosh and the 'edge' phosh version, after the first time I upload a photo to web telegram, successfully, every succeeding time I try to invoke the file selector dialogue window, eg, by pressing ctrl+o, firefox entirely freezes and must be pkill'd. 

This kind of thing is expected at this stage of development, but is there anything I can do to prevent it or even re-set it to functional after each time?

Thanks
