  armbian / bionic - hdmi to vga not functioning on newer5.4
Posted by: kapqa - 03-24-2020, 02:53 PM - Forum: Linux on Rock64 - Replies (1)

Hello ,

i tested the newer Armbian Bionic Desktop 5.4 for Rock64 and it would not allow me to boot with a HDMI to VGA adapter.

reverting to the desktop legacy kernel 4.4.y image instead would allow me to boot with the same HDMI-to-VGA adpter.



do i need to include something into the

armbianEnv.txt on the newer Kernel?


Thanks!


Question alternative browser / seamonkey armhf build?
Posted by: kapqa - 03-24-2020, 02:48 PM - Forum: Linux on Rock64 - Replies (1)

Hello ,

i am used to use Seamonkey (formerly Netscape Navigator) as an alternative Browser to Firefox.

Was wondering if it would be possible to receive a ArmHf build for Armbian Bionic or if someone could help with building instructions.


the only seamonkey version i found is here

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/arm...1-0ubuntu1

it is a bit old and lacks quite some features for encrypted site i  guess

it is a nice browser because it has email and rss included in the suite.



Thank you very much.


  power button
Posted by: bsammon - 03-24-2020, 11:36 AM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (3)

So, this is the first laptop I've had with the power button amid the main buttons, and it's driving me crazy because I accidentally hit it quite often.

So... what apps/daemons are people using to control/configure what the power button does?  I know Mate in the default install comes with something that handles it, but when I uninstalled Mate, that functionality went away.  Now when I accidentally hit the power button, the computer immediately powers off.

Is there a desktop-environment-independent system for this?  Debian docs refer to ACPI for this, but it appears there isn't ACPI on ARM.


  ADSL
Posted by: eneville - 03-24-2020, 11:24 AM - Forum: General - No Replies

Hello,

Would anyone know how/where to get DSL (preferably VDSL2+) onboard modems? I'd like to replace an ageing modem/switch/router with something that I can control the image of.

  no sound from firefox
Posted by: Uturn - 03-24-2020, 02:39 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (2)

On my stock debian system, I installed Firefox, as Chromium did not work well.
Now I con't get any sound support form Firefox. However, I do get sound from Rhythmbox.
What could be my problem? (In Manjaro on SDcard Firefox gets sound support, but the system is slow).


  unresponsive trackpad after firmware update
Posted by: mamboman777 - 03-23-2020, 07:19 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (6)

I'm running updated manjaro with KDE. disable touchpad while typing is clearly not working, despite any software settings I use, so I decided to try the firmware update again. I use the pinebook-pro-firmware-updater in the AUR and it appears as if both steps complete successfully, but my trackpad is completely unresponsive after step 2. could someone please help me problem solve this issue?


  Window manager
Posted by: GloriousCoffee - 03-23-2020, 05:28 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (4)

I've just successfully set up Debian with FDE (https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=9467&page=2)
Had some issues with installing window managers although Gnome did install without any issues and the system runs with it.
I have afterwards tried installing both Cinnamon and Xfce with apt along side Gnome and I can log in fine to both Cinnamon and Xfce without issues, but as soon as I hit right click button on the touch pad, I get logged out (or may be it crashes?). Does anyone have any clue what is going on here?


  How to reinsert battery cable?
Posted by: gigamegawatts - 03-23-2020, 02:13 PM - Forum: PineTime Hardware and Accessories - Replies (2)

I knocked the battery's ribbon cable out of my PineTime, and I haven't been able to reinsert it.

The white connector has metal clips on the outside, so I'm guessing I'm supposed to press the clips in. I thought maybe the top of the white connector would then flip up, but that doesn't seem to be the case. There's a black plastic plug at the back of the white connector, so I'm guessing that is supposed to slide out, and that did work.

So, is this the process?...

1. Press the metal clips on the outside of the white connector
2. Slide the black plastic block out of the back of the white connector
3. Insert the ribbon cable into the front of the white connector
4. Press the metal clips again, and slide the black plastic block back in.

That's what I tried to do, but in the process I damaged the white connector so badly that neither the ribbon cable nor the black plastic block will fit into it.  The white plastic is surprisingly brittle, so my tweezers broke various pieces off it. 


Fortunately I have a 2nd PineTime, but I'm wondering how this connector is supposed to work in case I need to use it again.

Thanks,

Dan.
