== FAQ / Tips and tricks ==
'''Key left of Z ( \ | )'''

How to map the key next to Z to the symbols on \ and | (rather than <>) ?

Choose the alternative international US keyboard layout and variant. The name will depend on you desktop environment:

* English (US, alt. intl.)
* English (US, international AltGr Unicode combining, alternative)
* English (US, alternative international)

'''Note:''' keyboard variants with similar names as the ones above change the upper left key for ` and ~. You have to press that key twice to get the desired char. This happens with the alt-intl variant. Choose the altgr-intl variant (or however it is called in your desktop environment) and it should work as expected.

To set the keyboard layout and variant in the terminal for X-Windows use:

setxkbmap -layout us -variant altgr-intl

The Archlinux Wiki has some good help if you need to tweak your layout further [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xorg/Keyboard_configuration#Setting_keyboard_layout]

'''Key between Fn and Alt (Menu)'''

How to map the key between Fn and Alt to SUPER / META ?

The initial setup in many desktop environments maps the key between Fn and Alt to MENU. Although the menu key can be useful as well (e.g. spell correction in the browser) many desktop environments and window manager use the Super key for many other useful functions. And users are probably more used to have the META key near Ctrl and Alt.

In X-windows the following command maps the key between Fn and Alt to META and the Caps-Lock key to MENU.

setxkbmap -option caps:menu,altwin:alt_super_win

'''Set display brightness in the terminal'''

To set the display brightness in the terminal use xbacklight (if available in your distro):

xbacklight -setXX

XX is the percentage (%) of brightness. E.g. for 70% brightness

xbacklight -set70

If you use LXQt you can also use:
pkexec lxqt-backlight_backend --inc
pkexec lxqt-backlight_backend --dec

For an alternative solution please see the scripts discussed in this thread: [https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=5062]

'''Get battery % in CLI'''

As ACPI is not compatible with ARM, to gather the % battery this can be used:

cat /sys/class/power_supply/battery/capacity

'''Firefox font size'''

How to get a useful font size with firefox ?

To have every web page displayed in a larger more readable font size type about:config in the search bar and confirm on the first page that you want to make changes. Then search for this parameter:

layout.css.devPixelsPerPx

and modify the value (right click) to something between 1.2 to 1.5 depending on your preferences.

In addition to that you can set in Preferences -> General -> Fonts & Color -> Advanced Minimum font size to 16

'''Disable wireless power management'''

If having issues with wifi connectivity, try to disable power management in the 8723cs module options, adding rtw_power_mgnt=0 in /etc/modprobe.d/8723cs.conf

options 8723cs rtw_initmac=00:ba:ch:16:85:46 rtw_power_mgnt=0

'''Touchpad acceleration and scroll direction.'''

To set touchpad parameters from the cli you can use the command ''xinput''.
To use it correctly you first need to determine the device id / name for your touchpad. Use
xinput list
to do so.
You are looking for a line like this:
HAILUCK CO.,LTD USB KEYBOARD Mouse id=7 [slave pointer (2)]

With the device id = 7 found you can list the parameters that can be set with ''xinput''.
xinput list-props 7

The result looks similar to this:
device 'HAILUCK CO.,LTD USB KEYBOARD Mouse':
...
libinput Natural Scrolling Enabled (256): 0
...
libinput Accel Speed (265): 0.000000
...

To change the parameter use ''xinput set-prop''

To set reverse scrolling for the touchpad use this command
xinput set-prop 7 'libinput Natural Scrolling Enabled' 1

To set mouse speed
xinput set-prop 7 'libinput Accel Speed' 0.95
Check different numbers for 0.95 to meet your needs.

For more details on xinput and mouse speed also see the Archlinux Wiki [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mouse_acceleration#Using_xinput]

Quartz64

2022-06-30T18:47:53Z

Igorp: /* Software releases */

[[File:Quartz64modelb.png|400px|thumb|right|The Quartz64 Model B]]

The '''Quartz64''' is the most recent Single Board Computer offering from PINE64, with Model A initially released in June of 2021 and Model B in May of 2022. It is powered by a Rockchip RK3566 Quad-Core ARM Cortex A55 64-Bit Processor with a MALI G-52 GPU.

Key features include a PCIe x4 open ended slot (model A) or m.2 (model B) using one Gen2 lane electrically, and the use of LPDDR4 RAM.

The Quartz64 has three LPDDR4 system memory options: 2GB, 4GB or 8GB. For booting, there is an eMMC module socket (supporting up to 128GB) and microSD slot, as well as a footprint to solder on an SPI flash chip. The board is equipped with HDMI, 1x USB 3.0 type A Host, 3x USB 2.0 Host, Gigabit Ethernet, SATA (model A), GPIO Bus, MiPi DSI interface, e-ink interface (model A), eDP interface (model A), touch Panel interface (model A), MiPi CSI interface, as well as many other device interfaces such as UART, SPI, I2C, for makers to integrate with sensors and other peripherals. Many different Operating Systems (OS) are freely available from the open source community, such as Linux (Ubuntu, Debian, Arch), BSD, and Android.

== Software releases ==

{{warning|Software for the Quartz64 is still early in development, and therefore currently lacks features such as the ability to produce video output. You are strongly encouraged to procure a 3.3V UART serial adapter capable of running at 1.5 mbauds, such as [https://pine64.com/product/serial-console-woodpecker-edition/ the woodpecker] if you want to use a Quartz64 at this stage.}}

=== pgwipeout's Quartz64 CI ===

pgwipeout provides continuously rebuilt set of images for Quartz64 devices which includes a Debian installer and a buildroot rescue environment. It is aimed at advanced users who generally know their way around a Linux system, and as a baseline for whether something is working or not. Works on both SD cards and eMMC, uses pgwipeout's patched kernel. Kernels aren't auto-updated on the installed system, so the user manually has to do this by mounting the actual correct boot partition.

'''Download:''' https://gitlab.com/pgwipeout/quartz64_ci/-/pipelines (Click the three dots on the right, download the merge-job archive.)

For Quartz64 Model A, flash <tt>rk3566-quartz64-a.dtb.img.xz</tt>. On Linux, you can for example do this as follows, assuming your target device is <tt>/dev/sdX</tt>:

sudo -i; xzcat /path/to/rk3566-quartz64-a.dtb.img.xz > /dev/sdX

For Quartz64 Model B, use <tt>rk3566-quartz64-b.dtb.img.xz</tt> instead.

For line by line instructions to boot Quartz64 CI on a microSD card and use it to install Debian onto an eMMC follow these instructions https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/Installing_Debian_on_the_Quartz64

=== Arch Linux ARM (Unofficial) ===

See [[Installing Arch Linux ARM On The Quartz64]] for detailed instructions.

=== Tianocore EDK II port by jmcneill ===

This (as of 2021-12-30) is a work in progress to enable UEFI enabled systems, and is able to bring up SD, eMMC, USB, PCIe with SATA and NVMe, HDMI, thermal sensors, TRNG, as well as general Cortex A-55 features. Known to work with NetBSD -current, and the ESXi Arm fling version 1.8.

* [https://github.com/jaredmcneill/quartz64_uefi jmcneill's Quartz64 UEFI Github]

The sdcard image should be written to an microSD card and installed. Currently, using this card also for the OS may be problematic.

=== NetBSD ===

NetBSD relies upon the UEFI support in Tianocore. Before NetBSD 10 is released, the latest version of NetBSD-current should be used:

* [http://nycdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/HEAD/ NetBSD daily builds top level] from inside here, navigate to a date, and inside the images/ subdirectory are installable images. Use the one called "NetBSD-<version>-evbarm-aarch64-install.img.gz". This image can be written to a supported device, such as the eMMC interface, any USB storage device, NVMe, and PCIe AHCI SATA are all supported with builds after 2022-01-15.

* Currently this can not be shared with the EDK2 port, ie, microSD for EDK2 and some other media for NetBSD.

** On Model A, the slot provides 10W of power for the 3.3V supply and however much power your 12V input power supply provides on the 12V supply

The PCIe implementation on the RK3566 is much more compatible with a wide range of devices compared to the one on the RK3399 used on the ROCKPro64. This means a lot more devices should work (excluding dGPUs due to a lack of cache snooping ability).

==== Combo PHYs ====

[[File:rk3566 phy.png]]

Several of the I/O options on the RK3566 used in the Quartz64 are using the same I/O lines, meaning that they cannot be used at the same time. The above diagram illustrates how they are connected.

In particular, USB 3.0 and the SATA connector on the board are mutually exclusive, and the PCI-e 2.0 lane can be reconfigured into a second SATA port, though an adapter cable needs to be fashioned for this to be useful.

=== GPIO Pins (Quartz64 Model A) ===

Attention! GPIOs are 3.3V!

== Enclosures ==

(Please expand this section with more cases known to work.)

=== Model "A" ===

All enclosures that fit the ROCKPro64 should fit the Quartz64 Model "A", as the I/O has been laid out the same on purpose.

* [["Model A" Acrylic Open Enclosure]] - but see the troubleshooting section below.
* [[ROCKPro64 ABS Enclosure]]
* [[Quartz64PremiumAluminiumCase|RockPro64 Premium Aluminium Case]]
* [[ROCKPro64#3D_printable_ITX_mounting_brackets]] (Not an enclosure but allows to mount the board in an ATX/ITX case)

=== Model "B" ===

* [["Model B" Acrylic Open Enclosure]]
* the ROCK64 aluminium enclosure '''does not''' work, as the DC input jack is placed differently

== Troubleshooting ==

=== Stability/Boot Issues With Missing Battery Shunt ===

If there is no battery plugged into the board, the jumper labelled "ON/OFF_BATT" must be in place. If this is set wrong, stability issues such as failures to boot will occur.

=== No Ethernet Connectivity ===

Make sure the kernel is built with <code>CONFIG_MOTORCOMM_PHY</code> set to <code>y</code>. Building it as a module (<code>m</code>) and then relying on module auto-loading is unlikely to work, because if the generic PHY driver is built in it will bind to the PHY first, unless you include the motorcomm module in your initramfs.

=== "Model A" Acrylic Case Doesn't Fit ===

The Quartz64 does not really fit onto the bottom plate of the [["Model A" Acrylic Open Enclosure]]. This is because the "Mic" connector at the bottom of the board interferes with one of the posts. A workaround is to find out which post that is (you have a 50% chance of guessing it right, accounting for rotating the board) and then filing away the corner of the post pointing inwards by a few millimetres.

[[File:Quartz64-audio-jack-spacer-issue.jpg]]

An alternate solution may be to place plastic spacers with a smaller outer diameter in between the acrylic bottom plate posts and the SBC board.

=== No GPU Acceleration with Debian "Bullseye" Userland ===

Debian Bullseye ships a Mesa version that is too old to contain the required patches for the RK356x SoC's GPU. You can (at your own risk) [https://wiki.debian.org/DebianTesting use the current Debian Testing version ], called "Bookworm".
