On Fedora 29 the pinebook will boot and run but you need to be using the serial console which is accessible via the headphone jack, it doens't make it overly usable as a laptop though. This is improved with the current rawhide (which will become Fedora 30) in that the ATF/U-Boot firmware there will properly light up the display so you can get text based console output. > I've seen pine64-lts is[2], and I've been trying to create a > build[3] based on some scripts on the pine64 discord channel but > so far I have no idea on what I'm doing :) So if you used the 2019.01 U-Boot build and updated the F-29 image to at least the 4.20.x kernel you should have the basics of a working device. If you're not sure what your doing I would actually use a Fedora-30/Rawhide image. The 4.20 kernel with the above U-Boot should light up the display properly, it won't be accelerated though. The WiFi should work with the next F-29 kernel update, but the 5.0 kernel will bring a number of other improvements such as battery/charging support/monitoring and sound as well as better backlight control and a number of other features. While Fedora 30 won't be perfect it should ultimately be relatively usable with a desktop such as XFCE or Mate >>> >>> Hi Peter, >>> >>> Thanks for the information.

I admit I never read that chapter carefully... Now I got the console access for my 11' Pinebook 1080p, and a working machine with console access only. The display shows until somewhere around the 4s in kernel log. Then the display got black. The console log is available at https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/EOCMI2i54UGoZTr~25gAdA While the USB device info is https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/7fmGskvzl1iZ4c3ENYnpVA I also tried to use the dtb from AOSC OS with Fedora Rawhide, the display goes beyond 4s but it failed to mount the / so I did not go any further. I feel I need to wait for the device tree of 1080p version to be upstreamed. > Dennis > >>> Peter >> >> -- >> Ziqian SUN (Zamir) >> z...@fedoraproject.org >> GPG : 1D86 6D4A 49CE 4BBD 72CF FCF5 D856 6E11 F2A0 525E >> Want to know more about Fedora? >> Visit https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ >> ___ >> arm mailing list -- arm@lists.fedoraproject.org >> To unsubscribe send an email to arm-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org >> Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html >> List Guidelines: >> https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines >> List Archives: >> https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/arm@lists.fedoraproject.org > -- Zamir SUN GPG : 1D86 6D4A 49CE 4BBD 72CF FCF5 D856 6E11 F2A0 525E Want to know more about Fedora?
