Megapixels v1.0.1 has now released!

And we got it on #ArchLinuxARM for @PINE64 #PinePhone / #PineTab. Your turn, @ManjaroARM . :)

Tagged Megapixels 1.0, featuring GPU debayer and GTK4 thanks to benjamin :D

#pinephone with a #3dprinted spacer to fit a 7" tablet usb keyboard. It's "done" now with some post print modifications. I'll keep working on the model a bit more and then upload it.

The forty-fourth edition of my weekly collection of #LinuxPhone news (@PINE64 #PinePhone, @purism #Librem5 and such), #LinBits, is out!

https://linmob.net/linbits43-weekly-linux-phone-news-week17/

Further delays with #Librem5 shipping, a notable improvement for using Desktop Apps on #LinuxPhones, and more!

Working on a new homepage for Discover :)

I totally missed (because I was working on CSS issues, website features and later #LinBits) that my recent low-effort commentary blog post "Will Linux phones stay around this time?" went sort of viral!

I have added links to a few discussions:

#Fluffychat 0.3.0 (https://fluffychat.im/de/changelog.html) builds are now available for the ARM64 architecture on Flathub (https://flathub.org/apps/details/im.fluffychat.Fluffychat)!

So if you are into #Matrix, and have a #LinuxPhone (#Pinephone, #Librem5, #postmarketOS) and are ok with #flutter, make sure to check it out!

#fluffychat 0.30.0 has been released today 🎉🎉🎉 with a big refactoring under the hood, a lot of bug fixes, better room alias management, minor design improvements, Linux desktop notifications aaaaaaaand Linux arm64 support. 🐧

In theory it should run on #pinephone or #librem5 but I have no device to test it. Anyone here who wants to try and send me screenshots? 🙂

The migration to #zola is now public, and old content has been brought back – there's still tons of work, but hey, it's progress!

Meet my absolutely NOT optimized (no IRQ, no DMA) SPI driver for the #BL602 #RISCV mcu. It already runs much faster than my optimized version for the NRF52 :-P

Howto: Use Firejail to enhance Privacy on Linux (Pinephone/Pinetab shown but any Linux machine can benefit from these Firejail tips). Partly meant to be a sequel for my previous videos: Tor Browser on the Pinephone & as Firejail Part II.

We've gotten reports of some older Androids not working anymore with recent fastboot versions.

If you get "fastboot: error: Couldn't parse partition size '0x'.", then give this patch a try and ✍️ report back in the merge request:

I couldn't find a #RISCV toolchain for the @PINE64 #pinebookpro so I built my own one!

For anyone interested, here's how I did it : https://github.com/JF002/bl602_cmake_base/blob/master/doc/build-toolchain-on-arm.md

I can now build, flash and debug my code running on the #PineCone #BL602 from my PBP!
