yet another translator for #sxmo #pmos #linuxmobile

After #apertium and #libretranslate, here comes the #mtranslate based translator...

(the finnish speaker stutters a bit and i could not figure out why yet )

why is there still no fully featured image viewer on #linuxmobile #pmos ???
am I missing something, how do you view your images?

Gnome #Loupe = no scrolling backwards to newest picture, my issue got rejected
#Koko = displays super small, scaling goes offscreen
#Kde Pix = no button to delete a picture
#FuriOS = no bin/no flatpak
#feh = no onscreen keyboard overlay
#imv = (d)elete does not work
#swayimg = no interaction
#gthumb = does not fit mobile
#nsxiv = no delete

Question to the #LinuxPhone/#PostmarketOS/#PinePhone community: I still have the OG Pinephone from 2020 in a drawer and was playing around with the idea of using it as a semi-#dumphone / less distraction riddled device for day to day usage.

How is the current state of Linux on a Phone and what about this particular device? The PmOS wiki page looks promising,, so does the Debian wiki (which was my main phone OS back then) but I am unsure how well this is maintained. IIRC, it became somewhat abandoned when the #PinePhonePro arrived.

The time has come to let my kid borrow/use a phone. Luckily I have a oneplus running postmarketos lying around! Any tips on setting it up?

Only meant for texting and calling specific contacts. Is there a way to set restrictions? I've removed apps that aren't relevant, such as firefox, but kids are clever, so I should have a better gameplan going forward

I'm trying to get a hyperpixel4 display working on RPi CM5 with #AlpineLinux 3.22 (or #pmos). While the console works on RPi OS it fails on Alpine - using identical config.txt tweaks.

drm_rp1_dpi and rp1_pio fails to load on Alpine. From loading with insmod it seems that rp1-pio fails due to unknown symbols.

The symbols are provided by rp1.ko - but that cannot be loaded due to "module is already loaded" (which it is not ).

Now I'm stucked an weird. Any ideas?

Day 1 of daily driving my #pixel 3a with #postmarketos #sxmo on my trip

I'm not sure how I'm going to document all this... but I'm planning on using #puremaps (#osmin as back up) otherwise using a bunch of #tui apps. I wish I had tethering working but I think I have everthing else "working"

@linuxphones @linuxphones #pmos

i’ve seen some people on here who use postmarketOS as their daily driver now that is has systemd. if that’s you i want to hear about your experience! i’m deeply curious as it seems pmOS has matured a lot now

Perseverance pays off!

I have - after quite a lot of fiddling - got @postmarketOS booting on a OnePlus6, with full disk encryption enabled.

I am really excited to give this a try.

Was thinking of getting a bigger #eMMC module for my #PinebookPro, but the one that was recommended was $50 for 256GiB which is a little... ridiculous.

I think I'm just going to wipe the 60GiB stock eMMC with #pmOS, fix up the loose screws, and get a 256GB microSDXC card for extra storage.

Out of curiosity do any of the #mobilelinux devices support WGPU? I have tested both #FLX1 and #PPP and neither one seems to work even though WGPU supports GLES and they both support GLES 3 but seems like WGPU doesnt work on it even if glxgears does. I opened a ticket for FLX1 a while back but I marked it as potentially a halium based issue.

I want to see if any other device is working before i open a mobile linux ticket

I was thinking of buying a new-to-me #Thinkpad next month, but I think what I'll do instead is try to spruce up my #PinebookPro:

• Get new rubber feet
• Get a bigger SSD
• Install #pmOS and finally have #FDE on the thing
• Put some proper locktite on the screws so it's not falling apart all the time

I need to look up some videos on applying threadlocker to screws. It's much looser stuff than the typical locktite and it tends to make a mess.

I'm debating just dribbling locktite (regular CA) on top of the screws as well to try to make them a little more permanent. Not a great solution, but the thing just loves to fall apart.

It's always best to try to #reuse! <3

Thinking of trying #postmarketOS on my #PinebookPro.

I didn't even know you could run it as a desktop OS.

Supposedly the installer supports #FullDiskEncryption, which is... "poggers," I think the kids say.

Love the new @postmarketOS website! It is cool to see a foss projects structure being laid out so clearly front and center (https://postmarketos.org/team/).
