  External Reset button on PineTab V?
Posted by: michaelengel - 09-18-2023, 06:31 AM - Forum: PineTab Hardware - No Replies

Hi,

is there a way to reset the PineTab V without having to power it down? That would be quite convenient for OS development – I'm currently porting the xv6 OS to the JH7110 (also for the VisionFive 2 and the Star64, which are easier to reset...).

  Lockable-until-power-cycle persistent storage
Posted by: Melab - 09-17-2023, 08:51 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - No Replies

Does the Pinebook Pro have anything like a TPM or other component offering persistent storage that can be locked from writes until resetting the platform? Chromebooks use this feature of TPM NVRAM to store anti-rollback counters.


  recommendations on best firmware?
Posted by: hambonius - 09-17-2023, 07:19 PM - Forum: General Discussion of PinePhone Pro - Replies (9)

Hi,

I own a Pine-phone Pro handset. I have concluded that the firmware packages I have tried on it so far, do not bring it up to day to day usable status. I bought it in the knowledge that its still on the bleeding edge, and some time will be needed to fully develop all functions. It rankles however, to see it still in the box and my old phone still in my pocket..  

Any recommendations on best current firmware, to expect to be able to reliably use the hardware at least for phone, text and camera functions?

Thanks,

  Is whole drive encryption possible?
Posted by: graeme - 09-17-2023, 09:43 AM - Forum: General Discussion on PineTab - Replies (1)

Is it possible to encrypt the entire drive? I am assuming that ecryptfs will work so I can encrypt my home directory, but would feel safer if I can encrypt everything to stop data leaking through /tmp etc.

Alternatively, any tips on how to ameliorate the risks with just /home/[me] encrypted? I thought of putting swap in zram (which i do on my desktop) anyway which solves one problem.

I have lost a tablet before... it is a risk that bothers me.

  packages held back
Posted by: user641 - 09-17-2023, 03:08 AM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (7)

Hello, running trixie here and for a few weeks I have seen those 4 packages held back when running upgrades:
  mobian-base mobian-phone-base mobian-phosh-base mobian-phosh-phone
Is it safe to install them? Full-upgrade usually brake things on testing lol
Thanks in advance.

Just see it would brake something around audiopulse and pipeware, right?


  Making display horizontal

Not vertical. How can I do that? It might help my Thunderbird problem in my last post. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I got it installed but at even at 100% display it's main page does not show the titles of incoming mail. I can't page lo the right to see them. Is anyone running it with success? Is there a specific help page I can read?


  any chance to use both USB ports in host-mode?
Posted by: lllll - 09-16-2023, 10:02 AM - Forum: PineTab Hardware - Replies (5)

Hi,

I have the following problem:

  • I want to use my bluetooth keyboard
  • I want to use WiFi
  • I bought a 2-in-1 Bluetooth-WiFi-USB-Adapter. WiFi works, but bluetooth does not with my keyboard
  • I have a Bluetooth-USB-Adapter which works with my keyboard
  • Only the upper USB port is working in host-mode (from my understanding), so I can only use one adapter at the same time

Is it somehow possible to use both?
