I had to retire my second installation of Mobian Linux on a 500GB chip when the chip's output became much too slow, this happening on the PinePhone Pro of course.

So, I'm new to Arch. Might be more of an Arch question, but here goes:

I recently broke my OS by updating a bunch of stuff from the "extra" repos. When I ran the following to update:

I just received a Pine Phone Pro the other day and was playing around in the pre-beta sailfishOS install when I accidentally disabled Developer mode and the OS sort of bricked itself. I was able to flash Manjaro ARM to keep tinkering with it, so the phone itself is fine.

I've been searching but haven't been able to find a community link to the image the phone shipped with. It was the latest sailfishOS 4.5, does anybody know where I can re-download that image?

Hi,

I'm having an issue with my pinebook pro. I recently was fixing a pinebook pro for a friend, and somehow my screen decided to not turn on anymore. The pinebook pro boots correctly since i can ssh into it. I tried setting the screen brightness via ssh to no avail. Also disconnected and reconnected the screen ribbon cable on the motherboard. But i still have a black screen. Is there anything else i can do to try and fix the screen?

Thanks!

I tried to use Jumpdrive to write an os image to the exposed /dev/hda block device and now the tablet no longer boots. Jumpdrive always boots though and I tried "flashing" the factory default image but still no luck.

Can I somehow use Jumpdrive to restore my PineTab2 to a bootable condition?

I never received a USB/UART with my PineTab2 and shipping to USA is quite expensive so buying this would be a last resort.

Hey all -

I'm having an issue connecting to IRC from Pidgin on Windows, my IRC client of choice. I get the following error message:



I'm not sure what to do about this? I've double-checked my connection settings:

I just connected Chatty to my Matrix account.
I verified this on another device I use Matrix on.

But I can't find an option to decrypt older messages.
What do I have to do to achieve this?

I am running Debian 12.5 on my Rock64. I am using the nightly images https://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/arm6...rd-images/ offered here.
The image works great for the most part.

I would really like to fix two things.
1. There is a 5v error related to the DTS file that has what looks like an easy patch to implement.

Hello all,

I am not sure if I should introduce myself, if not: just ignore:

My name is Albert, I am from Denmark. I am an ethical hacker. The name Touchwood comes from the frog, the wizard Catweazle always has with him.

To the case:
I just received my Pinephone - Beta.
But it won't boot up. I put a USB charger stick into the USB-C port. The led at the top turned red, then green, while the phone is vibrating. I can see the display is lit, but nothing happens. Then the LED shuts, and the process continues several times, before it stops doing anything.

What could cause this problem?

Hi Pine64 friends,



I believe the Pinecil has dramatically changed the game in entry level soldering irons, even displacing soldering stations. With another accessory, it could do the same to desoldering tools.



I'd love to see a tip featuring a hollow nozzle, and a press-fit connection for a length of silicone tubing connected to a small (filter and) pump. The fast, precise heating and temperature control of the Pinecil would push this combo handily beat out the $300 price bracket of desoldering tools, like the Hakko FR-301, even without pump control in my hands.



Thanks for considering this!
