I am unfamiliar with architecture that uses two separate and different CPU's this way. Processing wise, what is going on here? Thanks.

 Cortex-A72 (big cluster):

    Dual-core Cortex-A72 up to 2.0GHz CPU
    Superscalar, variable-length, out-of-order pipeline
    L1 cache 48KB Icache and 32KB Dcache for each A72
    L2 cache 1024KB for big cluster

Cortex-A53 (little cluster):

    Quad-core Cortex-A53 up to 1.5GHz CPU
    In-order pipeline with symmetric dual-issue of most instructions
    L1 cache 32KB Icache and 32KB Dcache for each A53
    L2 cache 512KB for little cluster

Dears,

Would anyone know if Pine Phone would work 100% (data, voice, etc) in Brazil. 
My current local courier is Vivo.

Thank you for any insights!

I've been attempting to improve the performance of screensavers on my Pinebook Pro, but I need some help.

OS: Ubuntu Mate Bionic (ayufan)
Screensaver: GLMatrix (xscreensaver-gl)

Default Settings: (/usr/lib/xscreensaver/glmatrix -fps)
8-10 FPS
70-75% CPU

Current Settings: (/usr/bin/gl4es /usr/lib/xscreensaver/gl4matrix -fps)
14-20 FPS
45-55% CPU

I created the following bash script in ~/.local/lib/xscreensaver named "glesmatrix" and made it executable (chmod +x ./glesmatrix)

Hi all,

I got my PBP yesterday and I tried flashing it with a few images to see which one works best for me.

I tried the updated Debian one from mrfixit, but that ended up having broken (?) Mali drivers.
I decided to give ayufan's Ubuntu bionic images a shot next. However, after flashing the LXDE image, it seems like I can no longer boot.

I was running Debian from SD and flashed the Ubuntu from that one, but now I am greeted with an orange led & unlit screen when booting without an SD card.

When I put the SD card back in, the power LED turns green after a while, and flickers for a time indicating disk activity, but the screen also stays black.

Anyone else had this problem? What can I do to resolve this?

Edit: just tried logging in after booting from SD, and it seems like that's working, apart from not having any display output or backlight. I'm going to try the eMMC image next, see what happens.

Dear all,

I do have the ISO Version (UK Lay-out)
I just recognized the default Debian image set up the keyboard for login
Screen to US (in graphical login)

I was able to fix this by setting /etc/default/keyboard
XKBLAYOUT=„gb“

Now the graphical login accepts the korrekt keymapping

Unfortunately the console (ctrl-alt-f1) is still at default US layout 
I tried to modify / create /etc/vconsole.conf and setting there 
KEYMAP=gb 

But there is no change.

Does anybody know where I should modify?

Thx 
Jens

I currently have:
Linux taz 4.4.132-1075-rockchip-ayufan-ga83beded8524 #1 SMP Thu Jul 26 08:22:22 UTC 2018 aarch64 GNU/Linux

Debian 9
Root is on sda2
Boot is on the sd card (/dev/mmcblk0p*)

I am trying to upgrade it to a later release so I can get fan control (I have no pwm device). I've used aptitude to jump to 5.4.0-rc1-1120 but I don't seem to get it to reboot to it. I see a number of files on /boot (on the SD card) and I'm not sure if I need to change any of them (the efi is not something I've figured out yet).

Would it be possible to connect a fingerprint sensor to the pogo pins on the back of the phone?

I'm not able to scan for or connect to several of my usual wifi networks (generally the higher numbers).

iw reg get showed I had an unset (00) region so I tried to set it and I don't seem to be able to. I'm using Manjaro pre-release 4 but have seen similar behavior on Debian.

I've tried a few different ways of setting my region but none have had worked.
- Setting region with iw reg set returns 0 but has no effect.
- Installing crda and setting my region via /etc/conf.d/wireless-regdom doesn't have an effect.
- Setting it manually in the module with echo "options cfg80211 ieee80211_regdom=US" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/cfg80211.conf does at first appear to work when I check my region but I'm still not able to see any more channels.


I can work around this at home (at the cost of more congestion) by setting a lower channel, but when traveling i'm out of luck pretty often.

I played with my little Pine A64+ for about 6 months and got busy with other projects, so the little computer eventually took up a display only spot on the shelf for almost 4 years. 
Then I heard about Pi-Hole and did a little research...

Now the Little Pine A64+ Is Running Armbian Bioninc (Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS) With Pi-Hole FTL v4.3.1.

Web browsing does seem faster with this as my DNS server

Simply wonderful!
Basic System Info
Pi-Hole Dash
Looking good!

Looking for an L2TP/IPSec client for my PBP. Any suggestions?
