Bug Fn + F keys screwy for F9, F10, F11 and F12
Posted by: keithzg - 01-10-2020, 06:15 PM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - Replies (13)

ANSI PBP, keyboard/touchpad firmware update applied. Using the Fn key with the keys on the top row, Esc through F8 seems fine:

Esc: Calls up the shutdown menu
F1: Brightness down
F2: Brightness up
F3: Seems to be the same as the Pine key? Presumably that's fine
F4: Mute
F5: Volume down
F6: Volume up
F7: Disables the trackpad
F8: Insert

However, F9 onwards seems wrong, both in what keycodes xev reports and in observed behaviour:

F9: Label says Print Screen, but instead Num_Lock
F10: Label says NumLK, but instead Scroll_Lock
F11: Label says ScrLK, but instead Pause
F12: Label says Pause Break, but instead Num_Lock

Other blue-label keys (ie. the numberpad keys, delete, home/end, page up/down) all seem to be mapped as expected.


  PBP ANSI Keyboard Mapping Issue
Posted by: JaredT66 - 01-10-2020, 05:42 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (4)

All, just dropping a note.  Just opened my PBP and everything looks good.  Only issue I found was that while typing the double quote '"' and the at '@' were reversed.  It appears that this is because the default keyboard mapping was set to English(UK) instead of English(US).  

After changing it seems to be working as expected!

  USB-C charging
Posted by: fpex73 - 01-10-2020, 05:24 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (10)

I just got my pine book pro, and I tried to connect it to a power bank (one that works with things like iPad and alike).\The pine book was saying charing but actually the battery was discharging.
I am now trying to charge with the provided supplier, but I wonder if the PBP is compatible to powerbanks at all no or there is an issue and I need to open my PBP to check out things.
Thanks.

I am wondering if someone working at UBPorts would be interested in posting on our Pine Phone Forum  ?

I for one would appreciate any inside information they can give here.

More than willing to make a PayPal donation to help their "Cause"

     Thanks  !


  Pine Cube Camera Lenses etc

I looked up the camera that was listed for the cube camera, it was a bit vague, so could you tell us what options there will be and is it hackable for more fun.[Image: wink.png]


  NVMe Tuning
Posted by: gandlers - 01-09-2020, 03:22 PM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - Replies (14)

I have tried to follow the Wiki section to set the power profile of the NVMe SSD.

        sudo nvme /dev/nvme0 id-ctrl /dev/nvme0 

returns:

        ps    0 : mp:3.30W operational enlat:0 exlat:0 rrt:0 rrl:0
                  rwt:0 rwl:0 idle_power:- active_power:-
        ps    1 : mp:2.70W operational enlat:0 exlat:0 rrt:1 rrl:1
                  rwt:1 rwl:1 idle_power:- active_power:-
        ps    2 : mp:2.30W operational enlat:0 exlat:0 rrt:2 rrl:2
                  rwt:2 rwl:2 idle_power:- active_power:-
        ps    3 : mp:0.0500W non-operational enlat:10000 exlat:45000 rrt:4 rrl:4
                  rwt:4 rwl:4 idle_power:- active_power:-
        ps    4 : mp:0.0050W non-operational enlat:10000 exlat:50000 rrt:4 rrl:4
                  rwt:4 rwl:4 idle_power:- active_power:-

Not really sure hot to decypher the output, but I'm assuming that ps 2 is the profile I want as its the lowest power with the drive operational.

I have tried setting this profile using 
        sudo nvme /set-feature /dev/nvme0 -f 2 -v 2

This seems to work until a reboot when it defaults back to profile 0.

Is there a command missing to save it to the NVMe?

Also after googling to try and find how to make NVMe setting persistant, I found some references to enabling Autonomous Power State Transistion rather than editing the power management. 
Which is the correct one to use APST (feature 0x0c) or Power Managment (feature 2) and how to make these setting persistent?


  Suggestions for Secure Online Banking
Posted by: Doofenshmirtz - 01-09-2020, 08:28 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook Pro - Replies (5)

I'm considering using the PBP for online banking.  I was thinking about booting from an SD card just for this purpose.  Is anyone doing this now?  Which os would you suggest?  Are there any precautions I should take with that os?  Thanks.


  Is it safe to use a charger with more than 3A output?
Posted by: Obikawa - 01-09-2020, 05:09 AM - Forum: Pinebook Pro Hardware and Accessories - Replies (8)

I do not understand the decision to ship the Pinebook Pro with a 3A charger.

If it is a financial constraint in order to meet $200 price point - fine. However, my workflow ends up constantly draining the battery, which I suspect is the result of the low current output of the charger.

I would like to buy a powerful charger (something closer to 5V x 30A) in order to compile in peace of mind, but I don't know anything about the electronics' ability to cope with such an out-of-spec current draw.

Can I buy the big charger or should I not?
