I admit I never read that chapter carefully... Now I got the console access for my 11' Pinebook 1080p, and a working machine with console access only. The display shows until somewhere around the 4s in kernel log. Then the display got black. The console log is available at https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/EOCMI2i54UGoZTr~25gAdA While the USB device info is https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/7fmGskvzl1iZ4c3ENYnpVA I also tried to use the dtb from AOSC OS with Fedora Rawhide, the display goes beyond 4s but it failed to mount the / so I did not go any further. I feel I need to wait for the device tree of 1080p version to be upstreamed. > Dennis > >>> Peter >> >> -- >> Ziqian SUN (Zamir) >> zsun@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >> GPG : 1D86 6D4A 49CE 4BBD 72CF FCF5 D856 6E11 F2A0 525E >> Want to know more about Fedora? >> Visit https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ >> _______________________________________________ >> arm mailing list -- arm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >> To unsubscribe send an email to arm-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >> Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html >> List Guidelines: >> https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines >> List Archives: >> https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/arm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > -- Zamir SUN GPG : 1D86 6D4A 49CE 4BBD 72CF FCF5 D856 6E11 F2A0 525E Want to know more about Fedora?
