  recommendations on best firmware?
Posted by: hambonius - 09-17-2023, 07:19 PM - Forum: General Discussion of PinePhone Pro - Replies (9)

Hi,

I own a Pine-phone Pro handset. I have concluded that the firmware packages I have tried on it so far, do not bring it up to day to day usable status. I bought it in the knowledge that its still on the bleeding edge, and some time will be needed to fully develop all functions. It rankles however, to see it still in the box and my old phone still in my pocket..  

Any recommendations on best current firmware, to expect to be able to reliably use the hardware at least for phone, text and camera functions?

Thanks,

  Is whole drive encryption possible?
Posted by: graeme - 09-17-2023, 09:43 AM - Forum: General Discussion on PineTab - Replies (1)

Is it possible to encrypt the entire drive? I am assuming that ecryptfs will work so I can encrypt my home directory, but would feel safer if I can encrypt everything to stop data leaking through /tmp etc.

Alternatively, any tips on how to ameliorate the risks with just /home/[me] encrypted? I thought of putting swap in zram (which i do on my desktop) anyway which solves one problem.

I have lost a tablet before... it is a risk that bothers me.

  packages held back
Posted by: user641 - 09-17-2023, 03:08 AM - Forum: Mobian on PinePhone - Replies (7)

Hello, running trixie here and for a few weeks I have seen those 4 packages held back when running upgrades:
  mobian-base mobian-phone-base mobian-phosh-base mobian-phosh-phone
Is it safe to install them? Full-upgrade usually brake things on testing lol
Thanks in advance.

Just see it would brake something around audiopulse and pipeware, right?

Not vertical. How can I do that? It might help my Thunderbird problem in my last post. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

  any chance to use both USB ports in host-mode?
Posted by: lllll - 09-16-2023, 10:02 AM - Forum: PineTab Hardware - Replies (5)

Hi,

I have the following problem:

  • I want to use my bluetooth keyboard
  • I want to use WiFi
  • I bought a 2-in-1 Bluetooth-WiFi-USB-Adapter. WiFi works, but bluetooth does not with my keyboard
  • I have a Bluetooth-USB-Adapter which works with my keyboard
  • Only the upper USB port is working in host-mode (from my understanding), so I can only use one adapter at the same time

Is it somehow possible to use both?

  Does Pinecil v1 support hakko T12 style tip?
Posted by: xsetiadi - 09-15-2023, 06:48 AM - Forum: Pinecil Hardware and Accessories - Replies (1)

Im just read IronOs github. And see about tip sense. That mention some soldering iron that support tip sense also compatible with hakko T12 style tip.

Does the old pinecil V1 also support to use Hakko T12 style tip?


  SATA hotplug not working?
Posted by: JPT223 - 09-15-2023, 04:20 AM - Forum: RockPro64 Hardware and Accessories - No Replies

Hi,

I set up a NAS but I realized SATA hot plug is not working.
Is it a limitation of my SATA adapter or doesn't it work in general?

Looks like I got a ASM1166 chip, but this is odd because the chip got 6 SATA lines but my card has 8 sockets.

this adapter is not optimal because it uses only 2 PCIe-Lanes.
I probably should by a new one. it was cheap, though Wink



thanks
JPT
