  How Do I Switch To Development Channel
Posted by: syrinx - 07-31-2020, 12:52 PM - Forum: UBPorts on PinePhone - No Replies

The pinned guide says to go to updates > update settings, but when I do that, all I see is Auto download and Reinstall all apps. I just updated everything and restarted. Has the process changed?


  Dude, this thing is sweet!

I'm really impressed with what the team pulled off here (Just received my CE PP).

Hardware wise it looks fantastic. Software will catchup I'm sure!

Took a long time to get it but I probably picked a cheaper shipping option or something.

It's totally the best "nerd gear" I've gotten to put my hands on in years. Thank you so much for doing this!


  Zoom for pinephone

I tried to install Zoom but...

Quote:package architecture (amd64) does not match system (arm64)

Any idea if this will become available for arm?

Thanks

  Screen has to be on to comunicate with phone
Posted by: daniel - 07-31-2020, 09:16 AM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (3)

Hi

I installed ssh and samba and they work fine. No problems to communicate with the phone.

However, to be able to connect via ssh or samba, the screen has to be on. If phone is left unattended, screens turn black and communication stops.

is phone sleeping when the screen turns black? I checked in Power settings, and the Black screen can be modified. This should only save energy for the screen but not sleep the phone, or does it?

  Debian or Armbian 32 bit?
Posted by: dieselnutjob - 07-31-2020, 06:40 AM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (3)

In the Wiki https://wiki.pine64.org/index.php?title=...Pro_images
there are couple of Debian / Armbian images listed.
Are any of these pure 32 bit ARM ?

thanks


  FreeRTOS, RIOT, Mynewt and wasp-os Firmware now auto-building with GitHub Actions
Posted by: lupyuen - 07-31-2020, 05:41 AM - Forum: Development Discussion on PineTime - Replies (1)

Hi All: I have ported 3 flavours of PineTime Firmware to GitHub Actions...

1. FreeRTOS (see the workflow)

2. RIOT OS with Rust (see the workflow)

3. Mynewt OS with Rust (see the workflow)

This means that any of us may fork these repos, update the source code, and GitHub will automatically build the PineTime Firmware for us. All in the GitHub Cloud, free of charge :-)

After hanging out in the PineTime Chatroom for a while, I realised that many people have problems building our PineTime firmware (especially on Windows). Hope this solves the firmware build problem for newcomers. And it also lets us compare logs to troubleshoot the build.

Learn more about building PineTime Firmware in the GitHub Cloud...

  NAS/fileserver project—RP64 in 1U ATX/ITX case (comments welcome!)
Posted by: Skirmisher - 07-31-2020, 04:39 AM - Forum: RockPro64 Projects, Ideas and Tutorials - Replies (10)

Hey all! I was going to just ask a couple questions in the forum, but I decided it'd be better to summarize my project here so I can ask related questions in one place, as they come up.

My partner and I are working to replace an aging Sempron box (FreeBSD 10, some IDE drive for boot, 4x2TB SATA spinning rust in RAID Z) with a RockPro64. We've done gradual planning over time since we got the board many months ago, and most recently I've applied my experience setting up Void Linux on the Pinebook Pro by setting up an install on eMMC for the RP64. At this point the basic system is up and running (with an old Pi 1 hooked up as a serial console), and we have a SATA card and 4x2TB SSDs that work; I've yet to set up ZFS, but other than that, the software side is well on its way.

The remaining tasks are in hardware territory. We have a 12U rack that we'd like to slot this thing into, so putting it in a 1U case seems like the cleanest solution, since we can't stuff 4 drives in the NAS case Pine64 sells. A current contender for the case is this model from plink (we have a 3U case from them already, it's fairly nice), plus a 5.25" caddy for the SSDs. This particular model has the benefit of containing an integrated fan controller, which would save some fiddling with controlling them from the RP64 itself. It's hard to tell, but I believe the controller is powered by a molex connector—which is good news for me, since I can easily adapt that from one of the SATA power connectors for free!

I'm as of yet unsure how I would mount the board in the case; that's what I'm most needing help with. I haven't been able to find any reports of people mounting the RP64 on ATX mounts (if you have, please let me know!). I presumably would need some sort of standoffs, or possibly even a whole riser board. The PCIe card is of course not going to fit on its own in 1U, but since it's solid state I have no qualms getting a riser/extension for it and fastening it wherever is convenient (and has good airflow).

There's also the fair question of power delivery. We of course have the 12V 5A power supply, and that should be plenty to handle these SSDs (5V 1.7A apiece), the fans, and the board itself. It's possible I could set up an ATX PSU like some on here have, and have the power situation a bit more organized, but as that would require cable customization (and the purchase of an extra PSU) I'm not inclined to go that route unless there's some other compelling reason to.

I'm looking forward to getting this project off the ground (read: my desk) in the future! Please let me know if you have any questions, comments, advice, etc. Smile
