Hello, I just received my Pinebook Pro yesterday which is the latest Manjaro branded version using the most current Manjaro ARM KDE 20.04 release. I finally finished installing & configuring all of my software/settings and thought I would test the machine - everything seems to work fine except SLEEP! (I also have a thread open about this issue on Manjaro forums since I'm not sure which would be the better place)

I have researched online and see a few others have encountered similar issues, but I wasn't able to find a fix that worked for me. Also, I haven't made any configuration changes or messed with suspend modes - I am fine with using s2idle, just want the screen to shut off and sleep when I close the laptop lid!

The crux of the issue is that the laptop starts to go to sleep, then it wakes immediately after - whether closing the lid, pressing the power button and choosing "sleep", or typing into terminal: "systemctl suspend". Long story short, it appears that either the dwmmc_rockchip [fe310000.mmc: pre_suspend failed for non-removable host: -38], or Device ff9a0000.gpu [failed to suspend: error -16] are causing the machine to abort going to sleep. Attached are the full logs:

Hello there,

I just received my PineBook Pro today. I noticed that the wlan0 device is missing. I try the kill switch a couple of times like I red on other threads, but unsuccessfully.

inxi -Fxz gives out for Network: Message: No ARM data found for this feature.

Any suggestion?

Hi Pine64 Community!


Just received my Pinebook Pro, and I am very excited. I just looked at the thread saying that the privacy switch for WiFi left the factory engaged, however, after disabling it and rebooting Manjaro is still not able to sniff out any available WiFi around my home. How do I address this problem?

Thank you for your help!

Hi everyone !

I just received my pinebook pro today and its a wonderful device but still, I encountered some problems.
The most annoying of those being that KWin keeps crashing, randomly it seems, but almost always when I open or close a window, most of the time it seems to manage to restart itself but sometimes it does not and I am forced to reboot and it's getting really annoying
I was wondering if other people came across the same kind of bug

(by the way I kept the manjaro kde stock installation)

Hi

Quick question about the kill-switches,
The Wiki says 3) Microphone: On enables audio input from on-board microphones (not 3.5mm jack), off disables.


Does that mean, if switch 5 (Headphone: On enables audio input and output via the 3.5mm audio jack, off switches the jack to hardware UART mode) is active and switch 3 is off, it will only allow audio in/out via 3.5mm? Or am I misunderstanding this?

Just got a pinebook pro. Having trouble setting up wifi.

"Network" applet on taskbar does not show wireless device.
"Network Interfaces" does not show wireless device.
Setting up a wi-fi connection in "Connections" does not present any error messages.

@awai, is it possible to integrate System-config-printer in the settings ?

Hi,

I've been messing around with my pinephone BH for a few months now and cannot get cellular network to work.
I have tested mobian, ubports, pmos and sailfish and all can recognize the sim card (tried two different carriers) and unlock it (also tried with no PIN) but they cannot register to the network.

I have also tried to debug with modem manager, and it can indeed find the various carriers' networks, just cannot register.

Does anyone have any idea regarding what the problem could be ?

Thanks in advance

Hi,
Why there is no Android subforum under Pine Phone software? 
Not enough interest?

From my point of view it would be useful to have a running image for few reasons.

- users that are android app dependent can run those apps, even in dual boot scenario its good to have android installed in case of ocassional need for it.
- until anbox matures, people could actually use pinephone as daily driver on android, rather then having it as secondary device to play with (daily use the hardware you purchased, and reboot to linux for play

I think I saw a mention of android image booting on pinephone somewhere, doesnt it deserve its own section under OS?
if there is android for pine tablet, why not for pine phone?

and just a small disclaimer. Android is free and open source software. I am not talking about android google bundle. My main driver is LineageOS device without any traces of google software or microg services, and its running perfectly fine. 90% of applications do not need google to run.

thoughts?

thanks

Since there is discussion of including an RTL-SDR module option in the PineTab, I've had some renewed excitement over the possibilities of doing SDR stuff on Pine devices. However, I still can't seem to get my RTL-SDR dongle to work on my Pinebook Pro. It works fine on my other computers, and I have little reason to believe that it's not receiving enough power, but even so, all I can ever get it to do is produce what appears to be a repeating loop of the first few samples it collects whenever I try to use it.

Is this a fluke that's down to some issue with my specific units (either the SDR or the Pinebook Pro), or have others had this problem as well? I'm doing my best to debug it, but the answer is still eluding me.

How about you? Have you tried using an RTL-SDR on the Pinebook Pro (or the regular Pinebook, for that matter)? How'd it go?
