Armbian for the Pinebook Pro [WIP]

[cefre00]

I have installed Armbian 21.02 Focal on my PBP and it works great. Yesterday it went to sleep, even the LED was not on, then I tried to switch it on, since I thought it it switched off, well it was sleeping and all browser (FF) tabs were back. It was a nice surprise.
I use Gnome, I can see some incompatibility over the different settings apps, like Settings and Tweaks, but just be careful. Software app downloaded from the repos does not work, so you should stick with the terminal or Synaptic maybe. Battery % is there, working. I did not check what happens when I start charging, but otherwise it's there.

The most minor thing I found so far is that I can't change the background. Otherwise this is my chosen OS for the PBP so far.

Does sound still work for you after sleep?

Yes, it did to my surprise as well, as I read here too that the sleep feature was not working for many. I think it got fixed in the meantime.

Which kernel version? Just to confirm, by sleep we're both talking deep sleep, with all lights out, right?

Well, I am not sure about "deep" sleep, but the status LED was dark, I thought the battery died and I pressed the On/Off switch. Suddenly, the LED lighted up in green and my browser and all stuff came back, exactly as I left it. In my understanding it is sleep alright.
