Quill OS for the PineNote - Szybet - 11-25-2025

Quill OS is now available for the PineNote in a "working" state

I don't think it's worth repeating myself with what I have written on github, so here are some links:
- An a bit outdated demo: https://github.com/PorQ-Pine/docs/blob/main/public/demo.md
- Explanation of what I'm even talking about: https://github.com/PorQ-Pine/docs/tree/main/public
- Entry repo: https://github.com/PorQ-Pine/quillstrap?tab=readme-ov-file
- Technical explanation of Quill OS (A cool graph Big Grin): https://github.com/PorQ-Pine/docs/tree/main/public/technical

We are looking for people to guide them to install it and write the installation steps along the way, so if you are interested, contact us in our discord server or in the official #pinenote

Also of course some more disclaimers:
1. Quill on pinenote is in its early days, there are many issues and minor problems like no rotation, no sleep (sleep drains the battery a lot anyway, so i did not care to add it)
2. The installation, while we used it, could have problems along the way, cant promise it would be painless, so maybe a few days without a working pinenote is possible

If you have questions, feel free to ask them here

Cool! Excited to see Quill OS running on the PineNote. Looks promising even if it’s early days - I might check out the demo and see if I can help with installation notes.

Hi all,

I am tux-linux (Nicolas Mailloux) and I co-maintain Quill OS with Szybet. I published a new demo of it on YouTube today:

Note : the Xournal++ demo (around 1:37) is missing the showcase of the Y1 eInk mode, which would make it even faster Wink

I hope you will enjoy it! Feel free to come to our Discord server to say hello and ask for installation help if needed.

Greetings and Happy New Year,
Nicolas
