Hi.

Not from me.
I could not find this link in the forum and guess that some people might be interested.

Here are instructions to install NixOS on the Pinebook:

Hi,

First i want to thank you for building Android Pie for the rock64   .

I just saw it, and i wanted to install it, but i'm facing a issue i downloaded the file from this section : 



I installed the driver successfully and the rock64 is reconized i follow all the step frop the ayufan guide : 
http://files.pine64.org/doc/rock64/guide...o_eMMC.pdf

but i'm stuck after "Download Firmware 100%", the next step is "checking : failed" then, the rock64 doesn't reboot and if i do it have a android logo with a Error.

I tried 3 time with different usb port, after a reboot but, no luck yet, what's wrong ?

Thank you

Hi Folks,

I've received my NAS case, SATA PCIe HBA and other bits.

On first look, the case is well designed and laid out for this purpose (NAS).  The drive carrier frame needs to be a bit stiffer (rolled edges would help here) because it depends on the drives for stiffness and proper shaping.  The two orientation nubs have to be "helped" to get the drive carrier frame mounted and that's a bit of a pain with 3.5" drives installed.

A simple one page sheet with recommended drive orientation would be helpful also.  If you put the drives in with the SATA connector end towards the RockPRO64 end of the case, the cables bind against the SATA HBA.

Once that is sorted, things fit very well and the case is very sturdy.

The outstanding issues in my mind for now are -

- The light pipe is pretty useless unless the unit is in a dark room
- The unit should include a proper case fan as part of the base package
- The drive carrier frame needs its edges rolled to both add needed stiffness and save our fingers

Other than those three items, this is a perfect solution for use as a media server in a home environment or a small workgroup file server.  I've currently configured it with two 12TB Seagate He drives striped using mdadm for speed and capacity.

Performance tests will follow.

Hi,

I'm using a Rockpro64 board with ArmBian distribution.
The board is connected via HDMI to a display and via USB to the touch screen controller.
When the USB of the touch screen controller is connected the RockPro64 does not boot: it stuck in the boot room, on the console the only message I get is:
 
DDR Version 1.22 20190506 
In

then it stuck waiting for something.
If instead I remove the usb connection vs the touch controller, the RockPro64 boot normally.

Any ideas about the root cause of this problem? ANy solution?
Thanks in advance

Hi,

I found Android P SDK on Wiki.
Who was already downloaded and build it?

https://wiki.pine64.org/index.php/ROCKPr...ndroid_SDK

If someone tried it, i want to know how to build and burn to sd card.

Hello

I would like to connect a fan to the rockpro64 board, but I don't know the exact type of the board connector. Does anybody know which connector is compatible?

Hi, this is my first time to post my small project here with clusterboard.
I try to build a small weather HPC in my home, which can collect data and run weather model to forecast the next 48hr forecast.
Hope you like it~

Greetings all,
I am a new user of a Pinebook 11.6" 1080P. I am experiencing an issue where the wifi interface stops working after some amount time - about one hour. After that, it shows no networks available and persists in that state until the system is rebooted. I am running wpa_supplicant from systemd with the default options; Network Manager is disabled. Currently I am running Armbian_5.86_Pinebook-a64_Ubuntu_bionic_next_4.19.38_desktop -  but I think I also experienced this issue with Armbian_5.86_Pinebook-a64_Debian_stretch_next_4.19.38 and maybe even with the stock KDE system. Has anyone dealt with an issue like this? Is there a kernel module I could try reloading or some way to reset the network interface so I don't have to reboot the computer to get back online?
Thanks!
Charles
