I'm quite happy how upcoming performance improvements for #gnome Snapshot and #libcamera are shaping up. This is how things are now running for me on a #librem5:
Is there anyone in the #linuxmobile community with some experience in (or motivation to learn) #openmp (or something similar) who'd be willing to help a bit with a patch of mine for the #libcamera softwareISP? It's an important piece of sw that allows us to use "complex" cameras even when we don't have ISP drivers.
The patch I started already shows promising results on e.g. the #librem5, however I could use some help getting it into a mergable state :)
There's been recently some confusion in #postmarketOS as GNOME Software is still on version 45. The main reason is that the simple plugin: github.com/Cogitri/gnome-softw… we use for APK has not been updated to follow GNOME Software's library changes. If anybody is interested in helping with maintenance for that project, I can provide guidance and reviews, and we will all be very pleased!
Hey folks, we're going to be at @allsystemsgo in Berlin later this year. @cas and @craftyguy will be talking about how #postmarketOS has evolved over the last few years, our experiences with #systemd, and our plans for an #immutable postmarketOS that doesn't restrict user freedom.
If you're into low level Linux userspace and middleware definitely come along :D
I'm happy to announce the availability of my new app "eSIM Manager" on postmarketOS! With it you can manage and install eSIMs on your phone running postmarketOS! No more need to boot into Android to do the same!
For a while eSIM management on Mobile Linux, such as postmarketOS, was just a dream. Now it’s real!
Background Nowadays many smartphones and other devices have a so-called eSIM - or eUICC - built-in to the device.
I met with @pabloyoyoista today. We talked, amongst other, about the directions of Papers. As part of my #GSoC project, for example, I'm tackling gestures. It'll be a clean-up as much as will enable touchscreen users, who currently cannot select text, nor add annotations. Yes, the pizza at the end is obligatory. (Would've been a boring picture otherwise, right?) And yes, they were paid for from a #postmarketOS running device.
Great news for Gnome-Mobile users on postmarketOS. Now you can trigger the keyboard with a double tap on the bottom bar. You can type in Qt or other apps that don't trigger the keyboard automatically. Thank you @verdre !
Introduction Hey everyone, I recently joined Codethink and I am contributing to the improvements being made to GNOME OS, through the Sovereign Tech Fund (STF), to make it easier and more useful in day-to-day development and testing tasks, among othe…
@gnome Very nice guide, going to try on my 2nd #oneplus6 soon. Have you managed to get the OSK working in Telegram? If so, how? I am having problems with the OSK not activating in several apps, including TG Desktop, but so far I only tried #postmarketos edge with #gnome-mobile. #mobilelinux
Apple ecosystem is overrated, welcome to the gnome ecosystem 🤓 (this is mostly a demo and you should not rely on these in a daily basis in a production environment) #gnome #gnomemobile #postmarketos
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:
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? 👀
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 end of the year in Linux Phones, let's have a last LinBits: A new #Maui Shell for phones and tablets, #postmarketOS v21.12, #Mobian on the PinePhone Pro, #GTK 4.6.0, an app-list replacement prototype and more!
