Rainbow Pinephone Wallpapers!
Posted by: PixelPaintbrush - 06-07-2020, 01:49 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PinePhone - Replies (13)

Hey all, I made some wallpapers for you while I am waiting to receive my new Pinephone and Pinebook Pro!   These wallpapers are the correct resolution for Pinephone.  [Also these links work unlike my last post]

  No EDID data for built in screen, PHY missing?
Posted by: bus-error - 06-07-2020, 12:23 PM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - No Replies

I'm running my Pinebook Pro with Manjaro ARM v20.04 (testing) and the GNOME desktop. I'm delighted to say that Gnome works beautifully except that it is unable to load a color profile and the 'Night Light' feature does not actually change the screen's white balance.
I think these two issues are linked. Loading a color profile relies on the colord daemon. In the journal, I see many instances of the following message from colord:

Code:
colord[1613]: failed to get edid data: EDID length is too small
I also see these messages, and I suspect they are related to Gnome's Night Light:
Code:
gsd-color[1446]: failed to get edid: unable to get EDID for output
gsd-color[1446]: unable to get EDID for xrandr-eDP-1: unable to get EDID for output
Indeed, checking
Code:
/sys/devices/platform/display-subsystem/drm/card0/card0-eDP-1/edid
shows it is empty.

I also see this message in the journal as the kernel initializes:
Code:
kernel: rockchip-dp ff970000.edp: no DP phy configured

I'm wondering if this means the current 5.6.0-2 kernel is unable to access the EDID data for the built in panel or (worse) whether the hardware to do this is missing. Can anyone from Pine confirm whether or not the PBP's built in screen is able to provide EDID data or not?

One last thing, I've tried connecting an external monitor via DP and in this case, I do see data in
Code:
/sys/devices/platform/display-subsystem/drm/card0/card0-DP-1/edid


Rainbow Free Wallpapers for you all!

  Left USB port stopped functioning
Posted by: firebrd_1979 - 06-07-2020, 12:02 PM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - Replies (2)

Hi everyone,
I received my Pinebook PRO a few days ago and it has worked fine up until this morning. When I plug a mouse (anything) into the USB port attached to the mainboard (left USB) , nothing happens. The other USB port works fine still.

After I received it, I flashed MrFixit2001 Debian image to eMMC and everything was functional. Last night I turned it off (no hibernate etc.), put it on the charger and this morning no left USB anymore.

I tried Debian from sdcard today and also there, I get no USB.

lsusb gives:

Code:
Bus 006 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 008 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 007 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0c45:6321 Microdia
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 05e3:0608 Genesys Logic, Inc. Hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 258a:001e
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub


Here's a picture of the USB slot:

I'm on the default kernel that came with the image:
Linux 4.4.213 #1 SMP Fri Feb 7 13:03:55 EST 2020 aarch64 GNU/Linux

It looks as if nothing even registers when I plug something in this port as there's no lines added to dmesg. When I plug the same devices I'm testing with into the right port, dmesg shows what's plugged in etc. (tried this with a mouse, usb stick and headset) Is there anyone who has an idea or would this be a hardware/port defect?


  Is there any way to get a video output from a cluster module?
Posted by: ollehar - 06-07-2020, 10:43 AM - Forum: Clusterboard - Replies (4)

Or is IP TV streaming the only option? Or possibly x11 tunnel.


  Is my wooden desk a safe surface to test the cluster board on?

And if not, what is? The plastic bag it came in? Anything metallic? I don't have a proper box at the moment.


  OEM Script - Factory Default
Posted by: xmark - 06-07-2020, 06:51 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - No Replies

Hi - 

I must have chosen the wrong language during the OEM script.  I need en_US
I mistakenly picked Spanish

Now I'm stuck with Spanish.  Despite what I do - the menu system is stuck in Spanish

I have been able to change the regional setting to en_US  (manjaro general configuration)
But everything remains in Spanish.   What a bummer! Sad

Can I somehow set this back to factory default and run the OEM script again.

Thanks


  Common Lisp on the PinePhone
Posted by: duncan_bayne - 06-07-2020, 05:11 AM - Forum: PinePhone Software - Replies (2)

Today I got my Common Lisp development stack running on my PinePhone, and started up a simple Hello World app.

[Image: 2020-06-07-20-47-Office-Lens.jpg]

Details:

  • Mobian GNU/Linux
  • Emacs 26.3
  • SBCL 2.0.4
  • McCLIM 0.9.8
In the attached photo I'm SSHd into the PinePhone, running Emacs inside tmux.  I've created a simple McCLIM hello world app in Emacs, and you can see it running happily on the phone.

Next steps will be experimenting with interactively developing mobile apps in Common Lisp.  I'm not sure how well the CLIM toolkit will work in a mobile context, but we'll see Smile


Sad PBP won't start
Posted by: woschtsuppe23 - 06-07-2020, 02:52 AM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - Replies (2)

Hi,

I got my PBP yesterday and could use it for a day. Even serial console via UART worked.

Now, I cannot turn it back on. I pressed power button for 20 seconds, nothing happens, LCD stays black, no LEDs flash, no output on the serial console via UART.

I tried with SD card inserted and without, no difference.

What can I do now?

Cheers

  What *exactly* happens at boot?
Posted by: ollehar - 06-06-2020, 04:00 PM - Forum: Clusterboard - Replies (5)

It would be nice with precise documentation of what's happening during boot. So far, I couldn't find anything. Is there a BIOS or similar? What's the boot order? Can I modify it? What's the difference between with and without eMMC? And so on.
