You don't need a new computer for up-to-date software ... just the right software!

Come to #Umweltfestival 2024 in #Berlin to learn about the role of independent #FreeSoftware in the sustainable use of hardware.

🗓️ Sunday 28 April, 11-19h
📍 Straße des 17. Juni (Brandenburg Gate)

#KDEEco together with #FSFE (@fsfe) and Bits & Bäume (@bitsundbaeume_berlin) will be there! Some in the #GNOME and #postmarketOS community may be joining as well :)

had a lazy easter monday getting the touchscreen working on the #OnePlus 8T

here it is at 120hz running #postmarketOS #GNOME mobile!

the high refresh and 2 years newer hardware definitely makes for a smoother experience overall.


Witnessing @cas getting OnePlus 8 display working on Linux 📱:postmarketos: :linux:

This is magic 🧙

Ok, so I'm a few days late, but I have been using my new OnePlus 6 with #GNOME Shell mobile and #postmarketOS, aside from a few issues (the camera not working, but that's being worked on, GPS not really working, weird "Headphones" and "Earpiece" outputs showing, GNOME being a bit laggy, mobile data randomly stops), I have switched my SIM card over and it surprisingly hasn't been too bad.

Maybe I'll try #KDE #Plasma Mobile soon as well :D

Good job. I just tried the #Flatpak version on the #PostmarketOS phone with #Gnome shell and it works nicely.
👍


GNOME Shell running out of the box on postmarketOS 23.06

Kudos to pabloyoyoista; GNOME and postmarketOS contributor / liaison :postmarketos::gnome:

He's made the GNOME experience as upstream as possible. We've discussed further improvements.

BTW, he's been looking for help blogs.gnome.org/pabloyoyoista/…

The default resolution is too dense on the Pinebook Pro, so I had to:

gsettings set org.gnome.mutter experimental-features "['scale-monitor-framebuffer']"

And then set it to 150% in the display settings.

If you do that and use Firefox, it will appear blurry so edit the firefox.desktop file (/usr/share/applications/org.mozilla.firefox.desktop) and change the exec line to:

Exec=env MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 firefox %u

#postmarketOS #alpine #fractionalScaling #firefox #wayland


So if anyone else is running into this, you can install the basic GNOME apps by running:

sudo setup-desktop gnome

Not sure why postmarketOS GNOME for Pinebook Pro doesn’t come with this as default.

#postMarketOS #pineBookPro #GNOME #alpine #apk


It’s installed and snappy (I installed the GNOME version and it’s faster than it was under Fedora Silverblue). And WiFi works. But… no GNOME Software? No web browser? 👀

I've been eagerly awaiting this #postmarketos capability. Re-installing every time a new release comes out has been dreadful.
Updater for PostmarketOS.  "An upgrade is available!  The version of postmarketOS you are currently running is no longer supported. However, the good news is that you can upgrade to the newest release without reinstalling!  Navigate to https://postmarketos.org/upgrade on your desktop to read the instructions, or open them on your phone with the button below."


We just released #postmarketOS v22.06 with the release name "The One Where We Started Using Release Titles"!

This release is the first one where we support between release upgrading, so no need to reinstall anymore with every new release. This is also the first release with support for the #SHIFT6mq and the Samsung Galaxy S3!

Booting a image from an SD card on a #librem5. In this case #postmarketos.
Got to play again with some work in progress code made by #librem5 developers. In this case a u-boot image that allows the #librem5 to boot from the SD cacrd. It can boot from the SD directly, but the video first I booted the #pureos image in the eMMC and then rebooted and booted #postmarketos from the SD card. Credits to the #librem5 devs and to @craftyguy for making the #pmos image for the SD card to test this :D


The 77th edition of my weekly collection of news about #LinuxPhones (@PINE64 #PinePhone, #PinePhonePro, @purism #Librem5 and such), #LinBits, is out!
