hi,
i'm trying to use an gps usb module with it, but i haven't success.
Is there a method to have "high precision" in geolocation and exploit the module?
Thanks!

ps: i'm using the 6.0.1 version.

Hi, my rock64 board gives me a lot of kernel messages, ending with this one:

--snip--
Message from syslogd@rock64node1 at Apr  3 17:59:08 ...

 kernel:[ 2374.557577]  lock: 0xffffffc0e82a8d68, .magic: dead4ead, .owner: bridge-network-/12840, .owner_cpu: 3
--snip--

Does this mean the board is defect, or is that my docker swarm network kills the kernel?

It died on me before, not running a swarm. I suspected the emmc and using a different one know, but again it dies...

Hello,
I don't know if in recent kernel releases was built in, or as a module the SCSI Generic driver.. ?
Any one know?

This driver is needed, to access SCSI devices, for example HardDrives for Configuration..

EDIT:
I filled a request for ayufan, on github..

Hello!
Today I received my RockPro64 board, and, of course, first thing I did was to power it with 24V power supply, heard a little pop, and it's dead.
Dead part appears to be SY8113B regulator,I found this part in Chinese supplier listings, but that would delay my project for at least 2 more weeks.
Perhaps any of you know about any compatible alternatives that are available in Europe, preferably from farnell?

Thank You,

This is a mainline LibreELEC image for the Pine H64. It already works really well, and should work with both the model A and model B boards.

I also posted this to the Armbian forum.

I can never seem to get the Rock64 to boot consistently from the SSD. Sometimes it comes up, sometimes it just "hangs". About once out of every 6 or seven times can I SSH into it - this is regardless of distro whether it's Bionic or Stretch. This is of course after flashing it to allow for USB boot.
 
On the Pi, I was able to solve this 100% of the time by using a small microSD card with nothing but "bootcode.bin" and an empty file called "timeout" which tells the boot to hang for a bit while things "spin up" and the SSD (or HD) mass storage come available. Once I did this, all my Pi's work great. In addition with the Pi I am able to do all of this completely "headless" where I can restore an .img onto the SSD, copy over a wpa_supplicant.conf file and touch an ssh file and "boom", I can always get to it consistently without having to prep it by plugging in a monitor and keyboard to make manual changes before booting it headless. 
 
Are there any steps to make this a similar possibility with the Rock64? Is there some image I can put on an SD card that will accomplish the same thing and then let bootup happen and continue on the image restored to the SSD that is hanging off the USB 3.0 port? Personally I don't care if it has a microSD in it or not - as long as it boots consistently 100% of the time and all of the real I/O occurs on the SSD drive. 
 
Thanks!

Does anyone know if it's possible to install the Pine64 Stereo DAC inside the Playbox case (with LCD and Pine64 of course!) ? It doesn't look like it'll fit judging by the pictures; I was hoping to get a definitive yes/no before I place an order.

If not, does anyone know of 3rd party LCD cases that can accommodate the DAC? I haven't found anything so far.
TIA

Bi-Monthly Update

This is a new entry on the forum that I intend to update with new information every other month. The purpose of this thread is to keep those of you whom may not follow all PINE64 projects on a daily basis up-to-date on how projects are progressing. It is also a chance to learn about PINE64 projects you do not know about. In short, consider it a 2-month TL : DR of information collected from the forum, partner project forums, various chats, websites and insider knowledge.  

It has now been two busy months since FOSDEM 2019. At the conference we announced a number of new and (judging by the community’s response) exciting devices, including the Pinebook Pro, Pine H64, the Pinephone and Roshambo. For this first entry I’ll focus on the aforementioned new devices, but rest assured I’ll be posting updates pertaining to devices that have been on the market for a while too in the future.

For those willing to discuss the updates of devices announced at FOSDEM 19, there is the right thread to do so. If you wish to discuss other information in this thread, just find the right place on the forum and either join or create the conversation subject.

The Pinephone

The second generation of Pinephone development kits have just started to reach developers. These new kits are, for the most part, the exact same hardware that will be found in end-user phones. Marius from UBPorts has shared a first image of the device powered on with the LCD panel working.



Last month we also unveiled the near-finalised look of the production phone. As things stand today, we’re confident that this is indeed how the final device will look like. That said, there is still a long road ahead of us production as it will be some time before production units start rolling off of the production line.



The development on the device is proceeding well and I expect that my next entry will already be showcasing one or more front-ends running on the dev kit and perhaps even showcase some of the functionality. Things are at different stages throughout the different projects. Here is an extract from a quick chat with Marius regarding software status:

Quote:On the kernel side, we still need to do some work, but display is working and so is mali; (...) we have been focusing primarily on graphics at this point (...). I’m currently working on putting together a fully working mainline rootfs. Once this is done i expect that unity8 and mir will just work.

Hi, I received my BTO code yesterday for the 11” Pinebook. I’m only interested in ordering if the screen is 1080p. The product page still lists the 1366x768 resolution. Can you confirm which screen I would receive if I ordered today?

Thanks!

Hi. I'm using ROCKPRO64 4GB. I want to set static ip address for ethernet. But I can't find anywhere to set the static IP.
How can I do it

Thanks.
