openSUSE for Pinephone
#21
This is a nice build! Phosh is is very fast and the pre-installed applications work well. I have a few questions though.
1: how do I resize applications that are too large for the screen? The trick mentioned on the Mobian wiki doesn't work.
2: what is the default root password? I was asked for it when I tried to change time zone settings; I had to "sudo passwd root".
3: how do I launch the YaST modules? After I input the root password, nothing opens.
Thanks for the hard work!

1 - Resize apps with Phosh are not posible i think, maybe using cli but for now i didn't find how to do it.

2 - Root does not have any password but you can use pine / 1234 and this user is on sudoers file, so you can do sudo su and add a password for root.

3 - What do you mean with launch yast modules?

Mobian has it working, here is their documentation on the subject; unfortunately, the command specified here doesn't work on openSUSE.

(ignore the terminal) these launchers popped up in the application menu after an update, but none of them actually launch anything.

I recommend to update using no-rommends package, because not all software are already adapted for small screens.

New version with some changes:

Now all images are generated as a contrib project in opensuse build service.

Firstly, thanks for making these images.

I have a question: Is it not possibly to resize the partition after writing the image to sd?
When I resize the second partition, it wont boot from sd (pinephone starts from mmc), without resizing it, it works flawlessly.
I'm using the method described on the pine64 wiki (here: https://wiki.pine64.org/index.php?title=...g_computer)
Do I something wrong or is resizing simply not possible yet?

Don't use that method use this:

# HACK: Auto-resize FS
check_root_partition=$(mount | grep " / " | awk NR==1 | awk '{print $1}')
if [[ "$check_root_partition" == "/dev/mmcblk0p2" ]]; then
sgdisk -e /dev/mmcblk0
sgdisk -d 2 /dev/mmcblk0
sgdisk -N 2 /dev/mmcblk0
partprobe /dev/mmcblk0
resize2fs /dev/mmcblk0p2
fi


This is added on last image for auto-resize in first boot
