Rhino Linux does not seem ready for the PinePhone Pro.
#1
I installed the rhino image file on the internal chip. It booted well enough, very showy compared to Mobian. (I have the PinePhone Keyboard installed.)

On reboot, the status panel was not present, neither was the virtual keyboard. I could not adjust the screen magnification from 100%, or add a Bluetooth mouse. With work, the Linux console could be quite usable. I did not have the knowledge of XFCE4 to recover the panel, virtual keyboard, or mouse.

This update command works:
$ pacstall -Up

If it's all gone pair shaped I also regularly use "onboard" - Simple On-screen Keyboard to get me out of trouble with touch screens on Pi's ? Just tried it on Mobian on PPP but just crashes out with a GTK error ? Don't know if it's available / works on PPP in Rhino ?

Can you run "xfce4-panel" from terminal ?

Code:
xfce4-panel

I've accidentally removed the xfce4 panel once with a Xubuntu PC build so not sure if that will help in Rhino ?

Again possibly useless noting you can't get a Bluetooth mouse however a USB C connected mouse ?

If you could get to the xfce menu I think "panel" might help in the search bar at the top of the menu with it's settings / restore ? 

Or running "terminal" from there and "xfce4-panel" from the open terminal ?

Possibly not helpful in Rhino but thought I'd throw my 5 cent's in anyway Wink

The difficulty with the mouse connection was my failure to setup the mouse correctly for pairing.
