Hello,

Installed the latest pine64-image-debianmate-310102bsp-2.img, it flashed fine, running on a Pine64 2GB board, using the Wi-Fi / BT module. 

When Debian starts up, the Eth0 connection says connected, and the negotiation icon on top right stays on and moving, thing is, i don't even have an Ethernet cable plugged in and it says "Connected"? I have to disconnect the connection before it stops. When I plug an Ethernet cable in, it will not initiate DHCP, or if i insert static, there is just no connection. 

I even inserted the SD into another Pine64 board, same result. Eth0 just won't work, Wi-FI works fine though. Any suggestions? 

p.s I did run the scripts to update etc...

Get the latest ubuntu image for PineA64+;  if you need gui use the mate image, if you need a server or want to run headless use the base image;  you can add gui later via script if you like.

Thanks for your reply, so that means that this build has bugs? I need GUI... running headless is what i wanted to achieve but, having network difficulties I am forced to use GUI.
That image may be the latest but its very old. If you need debian specifically then use armbian's build.
