Three years on, I still use my PineTab2 on a weekly basis. Don't get me wrong, it's not a great computer, and a lot of things just need more power than it can provide. But it is a hyper-mobile Linux tablet that can run desktop and command-line apps natively, with a touchscreen and an optional physical keyboard, for a budget price, even now.

#SailfishOS on the @pine64 #Pinephone, #PinephonePro and #Pinetab2 are all updated to kernel 7.0, and improved USB config. Just zypper ref/dup.

I just booted my PineTab 2 v1.0. Haven't had an update or powered on since 2023.
Linux danctnix 6.2.0-1-danctnix #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri Mar 17 02:49:02 UTC 2023 aarch64 GNU/Linux
As you may guessed, it is very unstable. It doesn't power off nicely. >_>
At the time we're running BSP U-Boot (2017.09) and mainline kernel. That stack got slowly replaced by mainline ones.

PineTab2 users can now flash U-Boot to SPI flash with uboot-pinetab2 2026.04-4.
Once you got the update, run the following update to install U-Boot to SPI:
sudo update-u-boot -b pinetab -d /dev/mtd0
You have to run this command on every U-Boot update as we do not update the SPI automatically.
-
U-Boot 2026.04 for #PineTab2 is now available!
It's recommended to upgrade to the latest for stability improvements. :blobcatsunglasses:
-
Kernel 7.0 for #PineTab2 is now available in danctnix-testing repo. Please give it a try!
-
Have made a fresh build of #SailfishOS to install on the @pine64 #pinetab2. Latest version 5.0.0.77, updated instructions here https://github.com/sailfish-on-dontbeevil/documentation/wiki/Installation . Make sue to update the flash-it script. Install can also be done from a barebones @danct12 danctnix running on SD, installing the required programs using 'pacman -S' instead of zypper.

How good is the PineTab2? I've been reading up a little on the Pine64 forums. I have had a PinePhone for a few years now so I have some experience with Pine64 devices.
From what I can gather, for the default OS there have been issues with Bluetooth and Wifi. How stable/usable is the default OS?
I am interested in using mobian/Phosh on the device as that is what I am most familiar with.
Are there any particular gotchas with mobian on the PineTab2?

Got the @pine64 #Pinetab2 running on @danct12 kernel 6.19 and #sailfishOS 5.0.0.76

To all PineTab 2 testers,
We just pushed U-Boot 2026.01 for #PineTab2
Please help us test it out, it should be in the danctnix-testing repository.

RE: https://social.treehouse.systems/@danctnix/116329324585191985
April 1st is over.
However, we really do want to port Haiku to the RK356x.
In fact, there is progress on porting Haiku to arm64 and it seems to be making good progress: https://discuss.haiku-os.org/t/arm64-port-for-haiku/18772/1
We have NO PLANS to deprecate our ALARM-based Linux distro. 🙂

Have you tapped on the suspicious pacman icon (or "a fun demo :D") on the #pinetab2 desktop at #fosdem2026 ?
If you did not attend FOSDEM or never visited the stand, don't vote or vote "I want the results"

Check out the PINE64 booth at #fosdem2026 on Sunday for these cool #PineTab2 demos!
