Pinebook Pro, produced by the Pine64 community, is an attempt by FydeOS to adapt to ARM-based devices. The FydeOS for You-Pinebook Pro released this time is the result of nearly two months of adaptation and optimization. FydeOS hopes to build on this work and add more high-quality ARM devices to the support list in the future.
FydeOS for You – Pinebook Pro v11.2 is the first specially adapted version released by FydeOS for Pinebook Pro. Compared with the previous Chromium OS provided by ayufan-rock64, the features of FydeOS released this time are worth mentioning:
- The Chromium browser is upgraded to 86.0.4240.*, which synchronizes all the new features of the upstream browser.
- Support Android subsystem, and support manual configuration of Open GApps.
- Support Linux subsystem, provide optimized "terminal" program, provide theme color setting options and provide multi-tab page switching function.
- Fix the configuration that uboot carried by the previous version cannot start the system from the SD card by default.
- Other optimizations for the RK3399 platform.
The FydeOS released this time has some known problems and precautions, as follows:
- The camera is temporarily unavailable.
- The function of double (three) finger pressing on the touchpad to trigger a right click is unstable and often fails. You can use a single-finger tap (or press) with the keyboard Alt key to trigger a right-click.
- Due to some problems with the power supply logic of the power control chip, there will be a 30-second wait at the logo screen when the system starts, which cannot be skipped temporarily.
- The system-level CJK input method is temporarily unavailable, you can temporarily use the browser plug-in version instead.
