Information Chats are being work on - disruption possible
Posted by: Luke - 07-17-2019, 06:46 PM - Forum: Community and Events - Replies (1)

Hi all,

@fire219 is working on getting the different chats properly bridged (IRC, Discord, Matrix and Telegram). This means that current bridges will  come down and a new and more elegant bridging solution will be implemented.

Expect possible short-term disruptions in the next couple of hours; this may extend to a day or two if there is some unforeseen trouble.


  RockPro64 Build Environment Docker Container
Posted by: dazza5000 - 07-17-2019, 01:22 PM - Forum: Android on RockPro64 - No Replies

I made the following docker container based on another project that has the environment preconfigured for building:

https://cloud.docker.com/repository/dock...-rockpro64

It maps your current directory as the base directory for building.

You can launch it with the following:


Code:
docker run --rm --privileged   -v "$(pwd)":/home/lineageos   -e GIT_USER_NAME=jfloff   -e GIT_USER_EMAIL=jfloff@inesc-id.pt -e LINEAGEOS_BRANCH=lineage-16.0   -ti darrank/docker-rockpro64

Once launched, you can build with the following:

Code:
. build/envsetup.sh
./build_box.sh

  A53 vs A72 performance
Posted by: enip - 07-17-2019, 06:37 AM - Forum: General - Replies (3)

I know A72 is performant while A53 is energy efficient. But what about the Spectre vulnerability? A72 is vulnerable, while A53 is not. The vulnerability is somehow fixed in linux. Hence in recent linux we have pure A53 vs A72 + the fix overhead.

So is A72 + the Spectre fix overhead is still more performant than A53?


  Ethical & sustainable resources
Posted by: Njiruk - 07-16-2019, 04:13 PM - Forum: General - Replies (3)

Hi!

Thanks so much Pine people for your great products! I can't wait to order the Pinebook Pro and PinePhone!

It looks like all these products just tick almost all the boxes of what is (and was since a looong time) necessary! It's not with the intention to complain about that one last box that's unticked: ethics... ; rather, I was wondering if there might not be an easy optional kind of solution for this: by proposing buyers to donate a certain amount that would go to some initiatives, or suitable organisation that deals with this... I know, it may feel hypocrite to some, to support it in a secondary way, while these products are (well, to my feeling very most likely not exactly ethically produced, which is to some extent fair enough, as almost all companies do so...), but I don't think it is absurd because you'd really support something that can have a significant effect, so that later the situation can be settled correctly hopefully at some point... Customers will feel it also as quite natural to donate at that moment, because otherwise it is a bit uncoupled and therefore mainly idealistic, to donate independently from a purchase. In fact, now there are no companies just honestly saying how people involved in the production chain are being treated, while there are many pretty questionable cases in there. I believe it may be a beautiful and courageous and very honest initiative to openly admit this to the customers, but also presenting an option to do something about it.
You could say: just buy a fairphone then... But to be honest, I would find this approach more fair, more realistic, less just idealistic and more down to earth, with a potentially greater effect. (Though, I also like Fairphone, don't get me wrong please :~) And it would make Pine64 the most revolutionary tech company (well, if it isn't already..?)

Curious to hear how you receive this idea...

  Availability of 128GB eMMC ?
Posted by: Arwen - 07-14-2019, 11:53 AM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCKPRO64 - Replies (1)

With the Pinebook Pro coming out, with an option for 128GB of eMMC, is their going to be an option to buy a 128GB eMMC for the Rockpro64?

While poking around, I found that Samsung makes a 256GB eMMC, but it does not appear to be in the same physical carrier. So, back to getting a 128GB from Pine64 that should work.
