adding the abilities to hide the f_keyboard and rotate the framebuffer would be optimal to allow fbp usage with the pinephone (pro) keyboard case. i often use the case for code development in vis so this would be needed for framebufferphone to fit my use case in the long term. something to think about, probably for post-oil-migration. rotating the framebuffer is as easy as running one command on arch linux, not sure about alpine.
For the cases when I'm using the pinephone keyboard typically what I do is just disable
fbp
, e.g. ala/etc/init.d/fbp stop
.And then all f_scripts can be used either directly from the framebuffer or from an X session etc directly since fbp is only a soft dependency! I often do this for things like
f_phone
andf_networks
even from X which is sometimes more convenient then framebuffer especially if you're hooked up to a keyboard.Note for rotation in framebuffer, you can run
f_theme rotate
.
thanks for the tips, i now often stop the fbp interface by running
systemctl stop fbp
as root, and rotate via f_theme. you can rotate the tty by echoing a value to a file in /etc, but it must be run as root and the f_theme script's rotate function works just as well.edit: feel free to close this ticket, i can't seem to figure out how
