My inexperience with Linux is the main problem. I'm used to solving my own technical problems, especially now that we have the Internet! With Linux, though, I keep running into walls that I have trouble overcoming.

I suspect, though, that some of my frustrations in installing wifi dongles on an A64+ may be due to bugs with software, whether Longsleep's image or other software I've installed.

Here are my steps, and the results. I'll mention installing VNC because that was a step I took. I'm still hopeful that I can get that going, but I'm open to all suggestions: 

1. Balena Etcher flash of xubuntu-xenial-mate-20161215-longsleep-pine64-8GB.img.gz onto 64gb micro SD (since I ran out of room with previous attempt using 32GB) -- Result great!

2. Sudo resize_rootfs.sh

3. Sudo apt-get update a couple times. Plus sudo apt-get upgrade and sudo apt autoremove a couple times.

4. Sudo apt-get install vnc4server -- Result: never did get it working as I have on Rasp Pi 3B+

5. Sudo apt-get install nano build-essential linux-headers-generic git

6. Mkdir ~/RTL8188EU

7. cd to above

8. git clone git://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8188eu
Result:
434 objects enumerated
434 of 434 objects counted
310 of 310 objects compressed
received 100% (12615/12615)
resolved deltas 100% (9368/9368)
connectivity checked

9. cd to ~/RTL8188EU/rtl8188eu

10. make all
Result: 
make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE= -C /lib/modules/3.10.104/build M=/home/ubun/RTL8188EU/rtl8188eu  modules
make[1]: *** /lib/modules/3.10.104/build: No such file or directory.  Stop.
Makefile:151: recipe for target 'modules' failed
make: *** [modules] Error 2


11. Tried make instead of make all. Same result.

12. Looked in /lib/modules/ to confirm that there's a 3.10.104 folder.

13. Looked in /lib/modules/3.10.104 folder to find shortcut called "build". So it's /lib/modules/3.10.104/build. Looked at properties. The target is: /home/hxwong/build-pine64-image/linux-pine64
This will fail, right? If anything tries to build/make, whatever, it'll look for hxwong instead of ubun or whatever you have.

What did I miss? What should I do (or not have done)?

Early Kickstarter of Pine A64+

Are there any specific requirements on the POE side for the Rock64 rev3?

I had this board humming along for a good long while, and forgot about it for awhile.  Now whenever I apply power, I get a quick red LED blink once a second, with no other feedback.

The board is stenciled:

A64-DB-2G-Rev B
2016-02-25

I've searched and not found any report of a red LED blinking on boot, only solid red LED.

Can anyone tell me if it's a board failure, corrupted microSD, failed PSU, anything else?

Your experience and help is very much appreciated!

Hi
I'm using the Pine A64+ (will update shortly to the LTS) for a project at work. 
I need to use several I2C sensors and SPI sensors too. 
Also, found the library for one of the sensors for RPi and I was wondering... the same tutorials/codes/examples/libraries from RPi work on the Pine A64?? 
I'm using Armbian Stretch, since I'm familiar with Debian

Thanks for the help

I ordered a 64GB eMMC for my Rock64.

The eMMC arrived preformatted in exFAT, and contained ransomware.

Hello forum-members,

I'm trying to get my bluetooth sound working on my Q4OS sd-card boot. In the standard KDE Neon image this works, but not on my new love Q4OS it doesn't work....

I am connected:

But when I play music the sound is coming from the pinebook speakers....

Anyone an idea how to fix this?

Hi
Im new to with the system. I bought it two years ago but I was not able to use it before hehe

I want to use the Pine A64(+) to read several sensors, which are compatible with Arduino. I have two questions:

1) If I need to use the touch screen, that apparently only runs with Android 6.0.1, is there a way to also make use of the GPIO??

2) Are there libraries to use different sensors with those pins? or examples? I'm planing to use several sensors that work with analog outputs and I2C and SPI so I was wondering if there are info about that

Thanks!

I have an 11" PineBook which identifies itself as:
