  Pine Key + Backspace/Arrow Keys not registering
Posted by: tslight - 06-12-2020, 06:01 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (3)

Hi there,

I'm having a problem with a new PBP where I cannot do anything with the following key combinations:

Code:
PineKey + Backspace
PineKey + Arrow Keys


There is a thread on Reddit showing that someone else has this issue:

https://www.reddit.com/r/PINE64official/...n_new_pbp/

He tried updating the firmware but to no avail - and like him I was under the impression that he latest batch of PBPs shipped with the latest firmware. 

Anyone else seeing this? Any ideas?

BTW - to see if you are affected use
Code:
xev
Press the combinations above and see if the modified keys are registered.


  Double tap
Posted by: nbxmike - 06-12-2020, 05:44 AM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - Replies (5)

I have a new PineBook Pro, and while very satisfied overall, I find that I cannot get the two finger tap to generate a right click.

Is it possible I have a bad trackpad or is this a common problem for the PBP?  I'd gladly purchase a replacement part if others can confirm that their units reliably generate a right click.

  Clusterboard/Modules shipment arrived in a bag
Posted by: ichibon-brosan - 06-11-2020, 07:21 PM - Forum: Clusterboard - Replies (2)

My new clusterboard and 7 modules arrived today in a DHL bag. Within the bag was a cardboard box that had been crushed out of recognizable shape. Thankfully the clusterboard itself was well wrapped and the 7 computer modules were so small and compact that they avoided damage. I am both amazed that the hardware was undamaged given the poor condition of the enclosing cardboard box. I am posting about this because I would like to encourage the company to make better arrangements when shipping that much value to a customer. On the bright side, I am thrilled to receive the parcel and looking forward very much to powering it up and programming it. I am sorry now I didn't purchase a baseboard as well because brining the modules up headless for the first time will be harder than it would have been if I could have attached peripherals to watch the startup sequence. I ordered an enclosure from a community member as well.  It is a very inspiring piece of technology. My imagination soars just looking at it. Smile


  SIM card not detected
Posted by: AddieDirects - 06-11-2020, 05:53 PM - Forum: UBPorts on PinePhone - Replies (5)

Long time listener, first time caller here.........

So I got a SIM for my PP Ub Ports edition. I plopped it into my phone and it still says "SIM not detected" in the Cellular settings menu. Being that this is my first Linux smart phone (though I'm not new to Linux. My daily driver laptop runs Fedora) I'm stumped. I've tried searching the forums, and using the Google machine, but all of the solutions (ex: this topic) did not seem to do anything to get my SIM to recognize.

Things I know....

  • It's a brand new SIM from a prepaid company in the US.
  • As far as I know the SIM does NOT have a PIN on it.
  • They give you SIMs for both AT&T and VZ and BOTH have the same issue....the "Cellular" option shows up on the settings, but when you go in there to get the IMEI to register the SIM, it shows up as "No Sim"
Anyway....................HALP! I'd love to test some of the phone capabilities of the phone. So far I'm fairly impressed for what is essentially development hardware and alpha software. It seems to be WAY better and more polished now than the many year...oh wait...months ago that I played with a Brave Heart phone at a friend's place in the pre-pandemic days of winter.


  Which distro for reasonable audio?
Posted by: brentashley - 06-11-2020, 05:15 PM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (3)

I had trouble with audio on the Debian installation, so I tried Manjaro 20.04. The emmc-installer would not load (could not find image even after I redownloaded and reflashed), so I chose 20.02 and got it loaded ok, however audio is really quiet and with headphones plugged in it plays on both speakers and headphones.

Rather than spend too much time trying different distros, can someone recommend a solid distro that has working reasonable audio and headphone functionality?  I'd prefer a Linux distro but if Chromium is the one, I can work with that.


  howto power hdd via usb3 on rockpro64
Posted by: hanscees - 06-11-2020, 02:15 PM - Forum: Getting Started - Replies (2)

Hi,
I am looking what I would need to build a NAS with a large 4tb sata hdd 3,5" using usb3 only

My setup would be:
1- A rockpro64 with 12v adapter
2- A powercable for sata drive  https://store.pine64.org/product/rockpro...ta-drives/
3- an external hdd drive 12v 4 tb 

I do not need ssd speed so using usb3 should work.

4- so  I was considering using the usb3 to sata adapter for the rock64 https://store.pine64.org/product/usb-3-0...with-uasp/

However, it is not clear to me if this usb3 cable is compatible with using the powercable for sata drive of the rockpro64?

Can anybody explain what I need to power a hdd sata drive via the usb port of the rockpro64 please?

Thanks!
