Megi publishes a new release of the PinePhone keyboard firmware, drastically improving power use and thus battery

This firmware is broken, do not update. See https://xff.cz/kernels/pinephone-keyboard-1.3.tar.gz-broken.txt

Thanks for the info! Wondering how it will work with my carrier. How is the battery life? Do you use stock or LineageOS?

Thank you a lot! Have you tried LineageOS? I assume that this could fix your issue with connectivity.

Keep in mind that none of these phones support the mainline kernel.

There are only 3 phones that supports mainline kernel: PinePhone, PinePhone Pro and Librem 5.

All other phones use Halium. In short, because there are no drivers, your phone will use Android container to talk to hardware.

True. PPP will be functional on other mobile Linux distributions that target mainline Linux. Like PostmarketOS or Mobian.

Looks like the package requires cmake, but actually uses only make.

But I hope that this PR will be merged soon: https://github.com/phoboslab/wipeout-rewrite/pull/11

If I wasn’t interested in drawing and wanted a GNU/Linux tablet, I would buy Pinetab 2.

I watched it and didn’t really like it. It’s too slow-paced for me and the characters weren’t relatable.
