Arch Linux ARM root filesystem

No issues here. Is it possible time is configured incorrectly on your system?

That is also what I thought, but it seems not. I might have to reinstall, I hadn't updated in awhile.

Sorry to use this forum as a bug traker…

Updating my arch-pinebook pro to linux-manjaro.5.18-whatever breaks my hdmi-usb-c output. Downgrading to linux-manjaro.5.17.9-2 fixes it. I dont know if manjaro users have the same issue.

Thanks for your work, once again.

Manjaro ARM users have the same issue. Therefore, the root cause is not Arch Linux ARM for Pinebook Pro.

Related merge request that removes USB-C alt display mode for Pinebook Pro from the Manjaro ARM kernel. A closed issue about this. It was removed on account of it being buggy (which it is). I do not see this being fixed in the near future for Manjaro ARM's main kernel.

When I have time I will test and possibly provide Megous' custom kernel, which has several patches specifically for the Pinebook Pro.

Compiled branch 6.0 and 5.19 of the megous kernel for the Pinebook Pro. Both failed to boot, or either seem to boot without anything showing up on the main display.

I will not spend further time on the video output issue until new and stable developments have been made upstream or elsewhere.

My advice is to discuss the lack of USB C DP alt mode support with PINE64 and the Manjaro ARM community.

Ok, fair enough. I keep on downgrading so far and it doesnot seem to break other stuff…

Once again, thanks for your work and time !
