  Notification LED only red works
Posted by: d3coder - 08-08-2020, 05:46 AM - Forum: PinePhone Hardware - Replies (1)

I have PinePhone CE (no CC fix version).
I installed factory test image and discovered, that only strong and weak red light works.
I tried this guide: https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/PINE6...e)#RGB_Led
Directory structure was different. Only red was working.
Is this hardware issue or software issue?


  Project Idea - RockPro San version
Posted by: User 18962 - 08-07-2020, 09:17 PM - Forum: RockPro64 Projects, Ideas and Tutorials - Replies (3)

i love the RockPro64 so much, its one of the best things ive ever used.

everything pine makes is amazing.

what i did with my rockpro64 was create a San for sopinecluster thats running kubernetes.

i got 30 HDD bays hooked up to it for storage providing NFS to my cluster. currently i only have 50TB of usable storage on it. i love how fast and energy efficient having this set up is, at full tilt im pulling 80w from the wall, which is much better than the 400W im pulling from the old primary san.

i have software running OMV with openISCSI going as well. 

heres all the HDD's i got so far:
sda            8:0    1 931.5G  0 disk 
sdb            8:16  1 931.5G  0 disk 
sdc            8:32  1  7.3T  0 disk 
sdd            8:48  1  7.3T  0 disk 
sde            8:64  1  7.3T  0 disk 
sdf            8:80  1  7.3T  0 disk 
sdg            8:96  1  7.3T  0 disk 
sdh            8:112  1  7.3T  0 disk 
sdi            8:128  1  7.3T  0 disk 
sdj            8:144  1  7.3T  0 disk 
sdk            8:160  1 223.6G  0 disk 
sdl            8:176  1  2.7T  0 disk 

i would highly recommend creating your own san out of the pine pro, the only issue is theres no 10gb Nic, but ill probly be adding on here shortly to make it EVEN better. 

happy prototyping!


  Delayed shut down or restart through power menu
Posted by: DarkManiels - 08-07-2020, 11:52 AM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (1)

In the last few days my phone has started showing a weird delay when I try to shut it down or restart. After selecting either option from the power menu the screen goes blank for a few seconds, but then instead of showing the Mobian splash screen and shutting down like usual, it goes back to the regular homescreen with all my apps for maybe 10-12 seconds, and then the Mobian splash screen comes up and it shuts down. Seems to be a Phosh issue, since it doesn't happen if I reboot from the terminal. But I'm wondering if other people are experiencing this too, or if I did something to my system to cause this (I was having some problems with u-boot earlier in the week).


  Debian (or ubuntu) on a micro sd card (pinebook pro)
Posted by: pine76 - 08-07-2020, 10:33 AM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (28)

Hi,

I have a micro sd card that I want to install Debian (or Ubuntu in case Debian doesn't work) and directly boot and use it as my primary storage space (it is 256gb so would be sufficient).

How can I achieve this? I have not tried this before; so, any help would be appreciated.


  help on setting up debian (or ubuntu) on micro sd card
Posted by: pine76 - 08-07-2020, 10:27 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (2)

Hi,

I am a new Pinebook Pro user, who is trying to find a way through setting up a productivity laptop. I tried the default Manjaro KDE Plasma but it does not meet my needs/workflow.

I bought a micro sd card, a samsung evo plus with 256gb of storage. I want to install debian (or ubuntu if debian is not possible). I was wondering if there is any available help or tutorials/videos I can use to achieve my goal?

I want to be able to boot from the micro sd card directly without having to go through the built in drive. I also want to leave Manjaro KDE as is. Would this be possible?

Any help or directions is appreciated as I have not done this before.

  sagemath on Manjaro (or Debian)
Posted by: pine76 - 08-07-2020, 05:11 AM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (18)

Hi,

I want to install sage on my pinebook pro; I was wondering if it is possible? I am on Manjaro KDE and apparently I am having problems in finding the correct package.

Also, I want to learn if sagemath is available on debian for pinebook pro?

Best,

PS: I tried compiling sagemath but it is very resource hungry. It ended draining my battery.


  Gpio indicator of drive activity possible?
Posted by: Mentaluproar - 08-07-2020, 01:23 AM - Forum: Linux on RockPro64 - Replies (1)

I want to have an LED connected to the rockpro64 via GPIO. I want it to stay lit but flicker when there is activity over SATA. I saw there was an old pi project on GitHub that did this but I don’t think that will work on a pi. 

I’ve looked around online but the best I can find is controlling pins with an obsolete method. Something prior to the character device we have pins presented to us now. It didn’t explain how to make it indicate anything either. 

Has anybody done this before?


  Pine64 Router?
Posted by: Spruce - 08-06-2020, 06:45 PM - Forum: General - Replies (1)

Hi there,

I thought that I recalled a mention in an old blog post about a possible Pine64 router... does anyone know anything about that? I would desperately love something along these lines with the usual Pine64 level of open software, hardware and security. I need to replace my failing router and would love to do it Pine style.

If a PineRouter doesn't and isn;t going to exist, then I noticed that someone was talking about installing OpenWRT on a RockPro64. What I don't understand about that, is how you would connect that to any client devices over ethernet when presumably the only ethernet port would be used to connect to the modem. Would it be WiFi clients only?
