  Is it possible to use another shipping method?
Posted by: rekesz - 01-24-2020, 09:48 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (5)

Hi Everyone,

I'm planning on getting a PBP, but to be honest the amount of import tax I saw in another thread made me a bit wary. Is there any way to use another shipping (if I'm not mistaken the PinePhone does not ship with DHL?) or is it possible to buy it in person maybe, at least to avoid the extra charge from DHL? I'd much rather pop out to Poland if possible Smile


  Manjaro ARM Alpha3 for PinePhone (and PineTab)
Posted by: rdgbjhugfdc - 01-24-2020, 08:21 AM - Forum: Manjaro on PinePhone - Replies (5)

Just wanted to make sure the community was up to date on where Manjaro is right now with ARM devices, but more specifically the PinePhone.

https://forum.manjaro.org/t/manjaro-arm-...tab/120761

Thank you to the developers and I can't wait until we get out of alpha state!


Changes
______________________________

- Wifi is now able to connect and be used
- Mobile broadband connections are now working (might need a reboot to work right)
- Phone application now works
- Replaced Konsole with QMLKonsole for a more mobile friendly terminal
- Filesystem now gets resized on first boot (which is why the first boot takes a while)
- Sound now works


  PyQT5 Manjaro
Posted by: pete - 01-24-2020, 07:09 AM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (2)

Hi All, I've been trying to run electrum wallet from python source on the Manjaro image.  Everything fails looking for pyQt5. 

This is installed via pacman so not sure why It's not working...

Everything I find online seems to be a dead end so wondered if anyone had any ideas how to get it working?

  vcgencmd clone and remote monitoring
Posted by: clach04 - 01-23-2020, 11:48 PM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCK64 - No Replies

I found https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?...t=vcgencmd but I've not found a vcgencmd  for any rock SBCs.

I use https://github.com/eidottermihi/rpicheck which is a cool (and free/opensource) app for Android for remote (well, local to LAN) monitoring and rebooting Raspberry Pi devices. You can use it with any Linux (like - it relies on some Linux tools, not sure it would work on BSD or others due to reliance on some userspace tools).

RasPi Check relies on a few calls to vcgencmd, so to avoid errors and get some useful output (like CPU temp) I faked out an incomplete version. I posted it https://github.com/eidottermihi/rpicheck...-577997989

Questions:

Where should I post this? The forum here appear to be for each rock board (e.g. I suspect this will work on Pro boards as well as the old pine64 board). I'm not clear this appropriate for the general forum.

What are other people using for checking (and occasionally running "stuff") on their boards?

Thanks to everyone who posted to the wiki - that was how I found a bunch of pre-made images :-)


  Netflix on default Chromium/Debian
Posted by: MoonDog - 01-23-2020, 09:49 PM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (8)

Hi all!
I'm rusty on my linux and I'm trying to watch netflix on it for the first time. 
For some reason I thought that in the default distribution provided with PBP the Chromium browser already included support for Netflix. I can't watch it in Chromium nor Firefox. Is there additional setup necessary to get it going? I see that widevine is part of the updates that I run every once in a while so I'm even more confused by it not working.

If anyone could point me to how to get it running on the original distribution, would be appreciated.

Thanks!


  Linux distro for Pinebook Pro where Suspend works
Posted by: appdev46 - 01-23-2020, 08:44 PM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook Pro - Replies (6)

Does anyone know of a distro for the Pinebook Pro where Suspend is reliably working?  

Is there a way to get it working on default Debian image?


  passwd / can't log in
Posted by: themarquee - 01-23-2020, 07:54 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (5)

This is a noob mistake, but I just received my Pinebook Pro and the first thing I did was use `passwd` to change both my user password and the root password. Then I rebooted my machine and now I can't login at all using the new passwords nor the default passwords.

I see now there is a different method in the online doc to change the default user password, but I'm a bit stuck. Is there something I can do or do I just need to re-image and start over?


  Does Fastboot Devices tools work on Pinebook Pro?
Posted by: pinejolla - 01-23-2020, 03:43 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (6)

Hello forum,
I am thinking to buy a Pinebook Pro to use as a second notebook, and for some Fastboos Devices (with Android devices connected via USB).
Is that already working on Pinebook Pro? There is some script to translate ARM architecture?

Many thanks

Pinejolla


  Charging Issue
Posted by: judgeruss - 01-23-2020, 02:46 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (8)

I'd love to see if anyone else has experienced this issue-- although I can imagine that I'm the only one with this set up. I'm an American who's living in Spain for a few months, and because of that I bought the ANSI Pinebook Pro with the EU power adapter. No matter where I plug it in in my apartment, I can feel an electrical current go through the metal part of the case while it is charging. I know a tiny bit about electronics but definitely not enough to figure this out on my own. One thing that is strange is that the tingling feeling in my hand intensifies when I move it along the case.

ANYWAYS this is a sort of silly and maybe dangerous problem and I wonder if any of you guys have any ideas about it.
