HI there,

I have the NAS case with the RP64. I installed the latest MrFixit image on it and managed to install/setup:
- samba (to have a network drive) 
- Rsync (to backup the network drive)
- remove pulseaudio to avoid random freeze as it's currently an unresolved issue)

- install Kodi to have a media center (to read the video / music / photos I save on the HDD)

the issue is with Kodi as when I run it I get random freeze (where nothing is working anymore (no ssh, no network access, image on screen is frozen). The freeze has the same behavior as the issue caused by pulseaudio.

Would anyone have a working kodi (other than the specific distro available)?

What has kodi in common with pulse audio? this issue might be linked with the pulse audio issue somehow and I would like to resolve it if possible.

Thanks for anyone reading / helping!

Hi everyone,

First post here
I'm thinking of getting the RockPRO64 with the NAS case to migrate an existing rpi backup server. I could not find the specs for the case, but I was wondering which heatsink might work the best for that case? any recommendations?

thanks!

There are a number of test pads located on both the front and back sides of the motherboard.

Unfortunately, there are no silkscreen labels for most of them.

Are there any resources for the test pads?

Hello,

I mistakenly connect power cord in reverse and something on the board exploded ! 

Is there any way I can change a component to revive the board? 

regulator chip or sth?

Thanks,

The first build of Manjaro for the RockPro64 is now available for testing.

Here is a tip for speeding up writes to a external USB 3.0 hard drive on ubuntu 18.04.

I however had not seen this info before.

Hi guys,

Just a simple question: on my 14" pinebook (which is used daily using the excellent linux support, even layouting magazines using scribus) the keyboard is stopping functioning. '1' 'Backspace' and the right shift key don't register anymore. What should I do now? Are new keyboards available, should i wait for the  pro model to arrive ? I wouldn't mind opening the box, it has been opened before (i.e. replacing to emmc with a 64Gb one)

Any suggestions will be apriciated and sorry for any spelling mistakes as a non native speaker...

I've purchased an AV Access 4KSW41-KVM 4-port HDMI+USB KVM switch to share my USB keyboard and mouse & my HDMI monitor between my Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ & my Pine64 Rock64. 

The Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ works as expected.
The Rock64, however, does not seem to recognize the USB devices (i.e., the keyboard & the mouse):

1. The LED inside the mouse illuminates but the desktop does not acknowledge any movement.
   
2. The USB keyboard is completely unrecognized:
   

• The Rock64 does not acknowledge any keystrokes. 
  
• Pressing the CapsLock and/or the NumLock does not cause either status light to illuminate.
  

1. I removed the power input from the Rock64.
   
2. I transferred the keyboard and the mouse to the Rock64.
   
3. I inserted the power input into the Rock64.
   

1. I transferred the keyboard and the mouse to the KVM switch.
   
2. I inserted the KVM USB-connector into the Rock64.
   

Anyone have a link to 11.6 pinebook mainboard schematics?

Better yet, anyone know how to remove the wifi/bt  card?  Or how to safely destroy it?  

Thanks!!

Decided to add a micro usb port for charging.
