| Wi-fi: "Device not managed" in Network Manager |
|

Hi all—my PBP has been offline for most of its life, but recently I've started seeing "Device not managed" in the Network Manager menu where my wifi connections should be. I understand this to mean that Network Manager thinks some other system is managing the wifi interface, but I haven't been able to find out what.
I've run through the steps in the wiki under https://wiki.pine64.org/index.php?title=...iFi_issues but come up short—nothing changes. Advice I've seen on other forums hasn't helped either.
Here's my /etc/network/interfaces:
Code: # interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8)
# Include files from /etc/network/interfaces.d:
source-directory /etc/network/interfaces.d
(/etc/network/interfaces.d is empty.)
Here's /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf:
Code: [main]
plugins=ifupdown,keyfile
[ifupdown]
managed=true
[device]
wifi.scan-rand-mac-address=no
Do you know where I can start looking to troubleshoot this? I see some wifi-related messages in `dmesg` but I'm not enough of a Linux networking guru to make sense of them.
Sadly, I do not have `ifconfig` or `iwconfig` or any such tools available, since they don't come in the stock install and I can't get online to install them.
(Last, semi-related thing: could someone let me know so I can edit the wiki to clarify which state of the wifi privacy switch is which? It says "2 blinks = enabled, 3 blinks = disabled", but I don't know if "enabled" means "the privacy switch is enabled" or "the wifi adapter is enabled". I've had to trial and error it.)

| Pinebook Pro won't turn on when unplugged |

Hi,
I just received my pinebook pro. It was working fine until recently.
It will not turn on without the power adapter being plugged in, anymore. The green power indicator will light up but nothing shows up on the screen. When I try to power it on when plugged in, it boots just fine and I can unplug it and it works perfectly.
My battery is at 62%.
Thank You

I am using Manjaro if that has to do with anything. The first time the default Debian started correctly. Even after I had just installed Manjaro, everything was working perfectly. Could it have anything to do with the update?

1. Doesn't have a search feature, or it hides. Maybe I found it once. I'd like to look up references to u-boot on the PBP because now that I have all the hardware to install my new SSD I have no idea how. I'd like to use grub-uboot and have the boot menu select Linux and OpenBSD (the PBP should be a mainstream OpenBSD platform as of about OpenBSD 6.7).
2. It doesn't email me, ever. I can subscribe to a topic and specify that I want emails on replies, I never get any. My email address in my profile is correct. I get emails from the Pine Store OK.
3. Posting pictures is weird and doesn't seem to work, even when I put them on Imgur and link them here.
These might be just configuration options in the board software. I'm sort of used to having them work on other boards.

| Manjaro won't boot (again) |

Hello everybody,
just received my pinebookpro yesterday: a rapid glance at the default OS: all works well.
Then I installed Manjaro ARM KDE edition 20.02.1 with the emmc installer. Everythin is OK, but after a shutdown the new system doesn't start.
Here's what I do:
- push the start button
- the led turns orange for a while
- becomes green but nothing happens: the screen is black.
Very strange behaviour indeed!
To be honest, the pinebookpro started for another time with manjaro. So, just to try, I rebooted: it started again. Then I shutdown. Now I can't restart again.
What would you suggest?
Marco

Magic lamp and all other window effects are not working in Manjaro KDE. Cube Desktop and Wobbly windows are working, however.
Anyone else with Manjaro KDE experiencing the same issue?
I have the Panfrost driver installed.

I received my heavily anticipated PBP on Monday. I've had a great time learning about ROCK64 and the differences needed to work on this platform vs x86 and x64
I've followed a few guides and tested out a few of the images (Debian, Bionic Mate, Manjaro). I have Manjaro currently loaded on eMMC. I'd like to continue to test other images via SD cards.
I loaded the Chromium image on a known working card with the PBP and used Etcher to write the image. It appeared to load fine but no internal display. Video output was not there. I had a similar issue when tested the Bionic Mate image and found that if I connected to a monitor via USBC I would get a display there but not on the internal laptop. Same issue with Chromium.
Is there a known issue when switching between images and boot options where the internal display does not function?
Thanks all, Great community here.

Hi
The PBP was delivered with a Debian system pre-installed, but I'm unsure which it is from the 'Partner Projects' menu on the main website- or is it not listed there?
I read somewhere that Debian allows for FDE on PBP, is this correct ?

| Rock64 ethernet not working during install OpenBSD |

Hi,
Just got my Rock64 v2 1GB ram yesterday, and I failed installing OpenBSD, just because the Ethernet not working.
This was my first time dealing with a series connection, it went fine, until when actual installing, it stuck at not being able to downloading anything through network.
The Rock64 actually got an IP address from DHCP ant it seemed fine, the ethernet just didn't transfer.
I was using the steps from OpenBSD mailing list as follow:
dd if=miniroot66.fs of=/dev/rsd2c bs=1m
mount /dev/sd2i /mnt
mkdir /mnt/rockchip
cp /usr/local/share/dtb/arm64/rockchip/rk3328-rock64.dtb /mnt/rockchip
umount /mnt
dd if=/usr/local/share/u-boot/rock64-rk3328/idbloader.img of=/dev/sd2c bs=512 seek=64 conv=sync
dd if=/usr/local/share/u-boot/rock64-rk3328/u-boot.itb of=/dev/sd2c bs=512 seek=16384 conv=sync
It worked until failed to use the Ethernet to download data. How do I do to make it work?
