reboot / crash
#25
@ everyone with crashes:

For the last couple of days, I was running Manjaro Preview 3 off an old 8 GB mini SD card. I pretty much stressed the system and there were no crashes. Give it a try!

Manjaro Preview 3 uses not Debian's 4.4.196 kernel but a 5.4-rc6 + some 4.4.196 patches. With this kernel, Manjaro has a few hiccups:

- the screen freezes every 10 min or so for a second. This might be due to my slow mini SD card.
- occasional audio cracks. Not a big thing if you listen to music on the side
- wifi is very flaky and needs to be reset every 10 to 15 min with

# cat /opt/bin/restartwifi.sh
#!/bin/sh
echo restarting wifi
echo fe310000.dwmmc  > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/dwmmc_rockchip/unbind
sleep 1
echo fe310000.dwmmc  > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/dwmmc_rockchip/bind
sleep 10
iwconfig wlan0 power off


If you don't get any crashes on Manjaro, then you will have peace of mind that you will eventually get a usable system as there is some active development work on integrating the Pinebook Pro into the 5.4 kernel.

I tried to get the 5.4 kernel running on Debian a few days ago but failed (see this thread). Next weekend, I'll give it another try.

[Caveat: I also disassembled my laptop for the first time. Nothing was loose or so. In theory, this could have also magically fixed the crashes as well.]
