new PinePhone upgrade issue - WhiteHexagon - 05-08-2023 I followed the advice to do an upgrade on my newly received PinePhone(EU). Previously it was showing KDE plasma version 5.21.2, kernal: 5.11.3-1manjaro-arm. 'sudo pacman -Syu' I had to plug in a physical keyboard to be able to type 'Y' at the various prompts for the upgrade. But now the process has stopped with a message that I cant fully read: Code: "roken and unlocking is r" I can't rotate to see more, only the above is shown. large white text on black background. Any advice please on what to do? I dont have the dock for an external monitor.

Anyway I have manged to get past that screen, and upgraded to 6.1.21-1-MANJARO-ARM. Seems much better, and not getting as hot. But settings app doesnt work (red background - from pull down controls), or there is a settings app (pink background). Neither starts. I managed to SSH into the phone, but dont see anything obvious in /var/log/ folder, is there another place I should be checking for app logs? or somewhere I can see why both apps fail? can they be started over SSH maybe? I am a developer, but new to linux development. RE: new PinePhone upgrade issue - acrux - 05-09-2023 Open Terminal and run "plasma-settings" from there - maybe it says what is wrong... But anyway - even if you got your "ancient" preinstalled system updated - there are probably still incompatibilites etc as in current development stage flawless upgrade path over all versions is not a primary target at moment. Flash the latest OS, test it and give feedback - that is the most useful way ![]() BTW - settings app works here (beta14 + updates)... RE: new PinePhone upgrade issue - WhiteHexagon - 05-09-2023 thanks. roughly: main.qml:79 ModulesList Page unavailable, ...org.kde.kirigamiaddons.labs.mobileform is not installed. But I took the advice and have written latest stable (beta 31) to an sd card. PP still boots into old OS, although I can clearly access the SDCard from the booted OS. So it just seems like my PP wont boot from the SDCard. I used Etcher on macos to write the .img file. Same as what I use for my PI experiments... I have PP Beta, so I should not have to change boot order? I captured the first few lines on serial output at boot: Code: U-Boot SPL 2023.01-1 (Jan 29 2023 - 02:19:56 +0000) RE: new PinePhone upgrade issue - WhiteHexagon - 05-09-2023 OK, so I accidentally was using the PinePhonePro image, and also my SD card was too slow. It also seems like having a macos 'screen' session open to capture the console was preventing a normal boot, not sure about that, but anyway b30 up and running ![]() [edit] just realised I need plasma instead... start again... beta15 on the way... [edit2] back up and running, phew! marking solved |
