Ive tried Manjaro 2 and 4, no video
2 different version of ARCH (sorry not paying that close attention to versions) no vdeo output.
All this with 6 different SD cards, im pretty impatient kinds aguy so "reflashing" sd cards is a huge time waster for me.
Someone mentioned something ysterday that I noticed no one commenting on:
So lets clear a few asuumptions:
1) on many tablets, holding the volume rocker and booting will bring you into a "bios like" util that allows you to do some low level formatting etx. Does the Ptab have anyting iike that?
When I got n video I tried power +, then Pwer - , then Power CTR, and only on one of them did the tablet react, it said "AWAITING COMMAND, and then had a strange figure displayed.
Thinking that it needed keyboard input I tried it again with the keyboard plugged in, same screen, no input
anyone have any ideas?
Arch and Manjaro have video for the first public batch. Arch on the wiki is working as one of the best. Strit posted a new Alpha image with changes made for the new screen. It doesn't have sound yet, but it can play youtube w/o stuttering. It's pretty impressive how snappy it felt.
Power + Volume Up is the combo. it should take you into the recovery mode but the USB cable is required I believe.
