Arch Linux ARM on PinePhone
#53
Thank you, 3rd upgrade successful, Bluetooth settings are now kept through reboots!!!! Have not tested much else yet.

I am finding various software hacks required as I move towards a daily driver and usable PC.
I reboot the phone every morning whether it needs it or not. It is quite reliable as a phone for the rest of the day.

Evolution is the easiest way to access CardDAV and CalDAV data, awkward but easy. To get Evolution to size properly run:
scale-to-fit Evolution on

Veraendert eyes must be much better than mine as I cannot use it for daily use, the only thing I can read is Evolution in the titlebar, lol

To size Contacts properly run:
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface scaling-factor 1

I have not found a way to make Calendar usable. The above scale-to-fit and gsettings command do not work. Still searching....

I am also moving towards using it as a PC by following this: https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=10469, pages 3-4. A very useful thread for lots of application tweaks. Had an issue with the repository for gdm. Will try again

After that is to install Kalliope: https://kalliope-project.github.io/ to provide voice recognition. I run this software on machines at home and it is moderately Smile impressive.
