  Need Sollution : Screen Problem and says the Error "Out of Range" on the display
Posted by: hunterzonecss - 04-17-2019, 03:41 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PINE A64(+) - Replies (2)

Hello,
have a Pine64 2GB which i am used to use with my TV with the Android for TV OS.. but i planned to use my pine64 device to another room where i have a very old model screen which has a VGA input... i connected them with VGA converter, but it didn't work, after changing and using different converter it alwasy say "Out of Signal".. i used the same converter and connected my Pine64 with my new TV and it worked even with the HDMI to VGA converter.. Then i connected my laptop with the old monitor and it even worked but only when i connected the Pine64 Device it says the problem..

after googling it i kinda found that probably it's because of the screen resolution(my screen is square, maybe 15 inch monitor).. i tried to change resolution from monitor, but there is nothing to change actually..  i think, there could be some way to change the resolution(if the problem is bcz of the resolution) by changing some config files on the image file...

ii tried with different img files (Android TV 7.1, Android TV 7.0 , LibreELEC-KODI, Xenial Mate & Q4OS) and only  with LibreELEC-KODI the display came without any problem.. Hope someone could guide me to fix the problem and i would be able to use my Pine64 device with the very old monitor... given i am also sharing the photo of my monitor that could make u the idea to find the solution... Thnx in advance and forgive me if i ask really some noob question..   Smile  Smile

  Rock64's temperature while being in aluminium case
Posted by: _zernok - 04-17-2019, 01:29 PM - Forum: Rock64 Hardware and Accessories - Replies (3)

Hello,

I am about to order from pine64 website these : 1 Rock64 4GB, 1 EU power supply, 1 heatsink and 1 "Model B" premium aluminium casing.

I wonder how the Rock64 is doing while being locked up that aluminium case as I don't see any openings. Is this casing effective at keeping the Rock64 cool (or not too warm ^^) ?

Anyone to shut my concerns down ? Smile

Thanks a lot Smile


  How to use GLFW / OpenGL ES on Armbian
Posted by: flyx86 - 04-17-2019, 11:24 AM - Forum: Linux on Rock64 - Replies (1)

Hi folks,

I am trying to write a small application that renders stuff using OpenGL ES on Armbian. I enabled 3D video acceleration via the RK3328 Media Script. Now I'm trying to create a simple window with an OpenGL context on it, using GLFW:


Code:
if err := glfw.Init(); err != nil {
 panic(err)
}
defer glfw.Terminate()

glfw.WindowHint(glfw.ClientAPI, glfw.OpenGLESAPI)

window, err := glfw.CreateWindow(640, 480, "Testing", nil, nil)

(This is Go, but I think the programming language is not really relevant.)

I compile and link that using -lGLESv2 and GLFW's dependencies, which produces a binary. However, when I execute that, I get:

Code:
libGL error: unable to load driver: rockchip_dri.so
libGL error: driver pointer missing
libGL error: failed to load driver: rockchip
2019/04/14 16:46:56 Link error in program Program(0): ""

So for some reason, my executable uses libGL instead of libGLESv2, and that doesn't work, since the rockchip only supports OpenGL ES. I have no idea why that happens. ldd ensures me that my binary is not linked against libGL.

How can I fix that? Is there perhaps a better Linux distribution for development? I tested Debian before, but that wasn't even able to install X11 and was pretty bricked after I tried.


  Building a clustered NAS with RockPro64
Posted by: jl_678 - 04-16-2019, 10:49 AM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCKPRO64 - Replies (1)

Hi,

I am debating doing the above with MooseFS or LizardFS.  The idea is that I would cluster multiple SBCs and my initial thought was to build it based on oDroid HC2s.  However, I think that P64Pro could be an option too given its SATA support.  (I suppose Rock64 too with the USB-SATA adapter, but I would be nervous about that.)  I am an avid Pine user with both original Pine64s and Rock64s in use in my house.  They work fine although there have been stability issues in the past.

All of the above brings me to my question.  When it comes to my NAS, stability really matters since it will contain all my critical files.  I will have backups and so there is protection, but I want a solution that I can be confident in.  At this point, I am not sure if R64Pro is there as I think that there could still be some stability questions and then concerns when upgrading as well.

Do you folks agree with my concerns or have we reached the point where it is solid?

Thank you in advance.


  Install Tensorflow
Posted by: RakshithNarun - 04-16-2019, 07:37 AM - Forum: General Discussion on PINE A64-LTS / SOPINE - Replies (1)

Good day everyone

I am trying to install tensorflow 1.12 on my PINE A64+LTS board
I have Xenial Mate OS which I downloaded from the following link
http://wiki.pine64.org/index.php/SOPINE_...re_Release

I used the following link to install Tensorflow 1.4, which worked
https://github.com/lherman-cs/tensorflow-aarch64

Later I found the wheel file for installing Tensorflow 1.12 in the following link
https://github.com/lhelontra/tensorflow-on-arm/releases
It didn't get installed and exited. I have attached the image of the terminal when this happened(Wheel Install)

I also found the following tutorial to build tensorflow
https://github.com/lhelontra/tensorflow-on-arm
I followed this as well and it showed error when bazel was getting build. I have attached 2 images of the terminal when this happened (Build Install1, Build Install2)

I would appreciate if anyone would help me to install Tensorflow 1.12 or later on my Pine64

Thank you for your time.

  Rock64 with Debian netinst usb
Posted by: Bloris - 04-16-2019, 07:05 AM - Forum: Getting Started - Replies (6)

Hello,

first of all sorry if this is already been asked in the forum, but i didn't find a lot.

I would like to buy a Rock64 to make a little home server with Debian.

In the wiki i found this http://wiki.pine64.org/index.php/ROCK64_...an_Stretch and it said Debian has to be installed with a particualre image. Isn't possibile to install with a normal debian netinst USB? In this case, how can i boot debian installation via USB?

Thank you,
Loris

  rock64, compile problems "illegal instruction", "memory fault" -> ddr_333Mhz?
Posted by: hunderteins - 04-16-2019, 02:57 AM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCK64 - Replies (10)

Hello,
  since owning my rock64 (4GB version)  I had always problems compiling larger projects on the device itself.
I tried many things like an other ac-adapter, different micro-sdcards, compiling on USB, different host-images, compiling only on two cores than
one core, gcc-5, 6, 7, swap on,  nothing helped.
The compiler always runs in errors like "illegal instruction" or "memory fault" that were temporal as they disappeared at the next
try.
After playing around with the rockchip boot flow on the rockpro64 I got the idea to check the driver for the external memory interface.
All host-images I tried on the rock64 use the same driverfile "rk3328_ddr_786MHz_v1.13.bin", so I gave the rock64 an other try with
rk3328_ddr_333MHz_v1.13.bin at offset 0x8800 on the boot device.
After reboot I compiled the ayufan-kernel on the device itself with 4 cores on internal sdcard. Worked, no error like before.
Yesterday I took an external USB-HD with the source of palemoon compiled from USB, wrote the objectfiles to the internal sdcard, 4 cores, swap on. It took the whole night, but the build completed successfully. No error like before.

Can someone tell me the negative implications when using the 333MHz-version of this driver?

TIA,
hunderteins

  Pine64 LTS vs Rock64 4 GB LTS
Posted by: gops - 04-15-2019, 04:58 AM - Forum: General Discussion on PINE A64(+) - Replies (2)

I needed boards for industrial use, we are rolling out a simple monitoring services, decided to use boards from Pine community. 

We have one questions, Pine64 LTS vs Rock64 4 GB LTS? Which one to choose? I see that Pine64 LTS has mentioned one year warrentee which is a good sign, but same is not applicable for Rock64.

Can you please recommend one?
