  pCloud Client on PBP w/ Manjaro?
Posted by: fbshilli - 07-01-2020, 09:46 AM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (2)

Is it possible to install pCloud client on PBP with Manjaro?   I tried the installer and manual installation but neither worked.


  NVME problem
Posted by: chaoskampf - 07-01-2020, 07:44 AM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - Replies (2)

I've installed (as described in wiki) Intel SSD 6 660p Series 1024Gb (SSDPEKNW010T8X1). Booted several times. Everything was fine. But next day after booting pbp there is no NVME disk at all (no disk in fdisk and lsblk output). Maybe I can check smth else to debug this problem if disk is not dead? Thanks in advance!

  USB current limit
Posted by: fernando_c_m - 07-01-2020, 01:47 AM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (12)

Hi,
is there any way to change the usb current limit?
it is currently set after apt-get upgrade to 0,5 A, which is not enough to charge the phone.
I used the same charging setup yesterday and the current limit was 1,5 A then.
Thanks


  Python IDEs in Manjaro on the PBP
Posted by: phuzy - 06-30-2020, 09:31 PM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (3)

Linux novice looking to do some python development on my PBP.

On Windows, I primarily use Sublime Text or Spyder.

Unfortunately, Sublime Text does not appear readily available on aarch64 and I have been encountering errors when trying to launch Spyder in Manjaro (I suspect it is an unsupported qt version).

What python IDEs would this community recommend?

  The Story of Pine64
Posted by: rbma - 06-30-2020, 02:35 PM - Forum: General - Replies (2)

I am interested in the story of pine64 --- who are the people behind pine64, how did it get started, how many people work there, etc?

Does that story exist somewhere?  I can't seem to find anything related to that on the website,

Candidly, it seems amazing to me that a group of people could build the PBP, the Pinephone, a watch, etc given that such broad skills are required to make all of this stuff work.  

Ultimately, I am impressed and want to learn more.  Smile


  Red Pinephone USB-C cable.. just for charging, right?
Posted by: djvinniev77 - 06-30-2020, 01:55 PM - Forum: PinePhone Accessories - Replies (3)

Hi everyone, 

Just wanted to check in and see what others have found with the cable received with the PinePhone. Mine is red, I thought it was a standard USB-C cable but it turns out it only works for charging. I tried plugging in this cable to an android phone and linux PC, the lsusb command comes up with nothing/can't find device. Switched to another cable to find that it does work as a standard usb cable, data transfer/charge capable. 
Hopefully it is as designed, just for charging. 

Thanks


  If you are experinencing serious trackpad issues
Posted by: Luke - 06-30-2020, 12:02 PM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - No Replies

If you are experiencing serious trackpad issues, manifesting as severe input delay and/or slow response, then the following two threads are worth investigating.

I suggest reading Thread 2 first.

  pplockd: Simple power management/CRUST daemon for X11 GUIs on PinePhone
Posted by: Subsentient - 06-30-2020, 09:38 AM - Forum: PinePhone Software - Replies (1)

So now that I've gotten it working how I want, I'll post the daemon I'm using on Fedora XFCE to handle power management, CRUST, etc.
It's written with the following assumptions:

  • You're on an Xorg desktop-oriented GUI on a real Linux distro
  • You don't wanna have to set up essential apps to use wakelocks and all that stuff
  • You can run something as root
  • You have the Xorg utilities xset, xinput, and xrandr installed
  • You have set your DE's power manager to ignore the power button
  • You have Python 3.6 or above. Fedora 32 etc use 3.8 by default.
You can run it from its git repository directory, just ./pplockd, or ./pplockd --nodaemon to keep running in foreground.

You can also copy 'components' to /usr/local/share/pplockd/components, and PPConfig.py to /etc/pplockd/PPConfig.py.

You will need to edit the default user in PPConfig.py, the config file, which also handles the triggers for different buttons.

By default, the buttons are mapped as follows:
  • Hit up then down volume keys to rotate screen from portrait to landscape, including touchscreen input (in sequence, since hardware doesn't allow vol up+down at same time)
  • Hit power button to 'soft lock', leaving the phone running, e.g. if you're playing music but keep the phone in your pocket. This shuts off all but 1 core and scales the remaining one to 600Mhz, in addition to shutting off the screen and touch input. It sets monitor inactivity to 5 seconds (changeable in PPConfig.py) to prevent battery wasteage, since it seems the modem is 'chatty', sending random events quite often, which light up the screen.
  • Hit vol down + power (at same time) to 'hard lock', this does everything soft lock does, but puts the phone to sleep as well. It should wake on incoming calls and texts if you've configured your modem properly. You are given (changeable in PPConfig.py) 30 seconds to hit the power button, then the phone sleeps again. 
  • In any case, you can always wake the phone fully using the power button.
Here's the repo: https://github.com/Subsentient/pplockd
