A request to anyone with a Pinebook pro / other Pine device..

Hi All,

Apoligies if this isn't in the right place etc


I was wondering if it would be possible for someone out there who owns one (or a differnt Pine product!) to compile this program from github and time it before I go ahead and purchase one. I have done this on all the computers that I have to have a general sense of how fast the CPU is etc - i know its not very accurate but it's interesting to be able to compare them IMO.

The program is called Minetest which can be found here: https://github.com/minetest/minetest#compiling ( I hope links are ok?)



For debian the commands are:

1)

Code:

sudo apt install g++ make libc6-dev libirrlicht-dev cmake libbz2-dev libpng-dev libjpeg-dev libxxf86vm-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libsqlite3-dev libogg-dev libvorbis-dev libopenal-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev libfreetype6-dev zlib1g-dev libgmp-dev libjsoncpp-dev

2)

Code:

sudo apt install git

3)

Code:

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/minetest/minetest.git
cd minetest

4)

Code:

cmake . -DRUN_IN_PLACE=TRUE

And then, finally,

Code:

time make -j$(nproc)

If you could post your results for the time taken to build this I would be massivley thankful as it gives me something to compare it to in terms of devices that I have so that I can gauge the performance, rather than some generic numbers online No need to run it or anything I would just like to know how long it takes to compile and if I can replace my ageing laptop with this system

Thanks again,

G
