my question/ **suggestion** would be whether if SSH is activated with ARM devices installation, **this would make absolute sense while some ARM devices do not have keyboards by default,** just as I would like to bring it on my PinePhone.  
Please advise 🙂

Yes, ssh is enabled on the RPI image but i don’t think it would run on the PinePhone since the kernel and bootloader etc are incompatible most likely

EDIT: I actually forgot to set a password for the live user so you cant actually connect ill add it to my todo list

thanks, I will give it a try as it is ready, despite the unclearness of kernel device coverage. 🙂

Does the ARM64 has an own repository, and when yes how could I insert it my Pinephone?

…As an explanation, I **could not use the ARM image so I took a barebone pinephone Arch Image and**  
**installed it to my phone. Now I would like to add the RebornOs repos …**

Or am I good proceeding like this:

```auto

sudo wget https://gitlab.com/rebornos-team/rebornos-special-system-files/mirrors/reborn-mirrorlist/-/raw/master/reborn-mirrorlist /etc/pacman.d/reborn-mirrorlist
sudo chmod 644 /etc/pacman.d/reborn-mirrorlist

```

?

Those are the x86\_64 mirrors.

Another note: We use Github now. If you see any projects updated recently on Gitlab, it is because they are either mirrored or added as second remote repositories

I created an xfce-desktop pinephone, ( btw. it is RebornOs ( ARM ) repo driven 😀 )because plasma was not so good for this project in the end,  
but now I am quite happy with:

 ![photo_2022-12-13_02-15-18](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/rebornos/original/1X/0b625b8de7dde847f2b9f0fc3aa9a67c2e7fcc8b.jpeg)

now I have a message that I have **none of Discover’s backends available**.  
Has anyone an idea, maybe Discover backends are missing from the repo?  
Thanks in advance … : - )

Do you have `packagekit-qt5`? Is this the Discover from KDE?

I was too confidently trying with

> packagekit

, but yes you are right, I should have gone with

> packagekit-qt5 **thanks again** , 🙂

Now it works !
