Rainbow USB3 Detection Issues When Booting Without USB Device Attached
Posted by: Dargmuesli - 01-14-2019, 11:26 AM - Forum: Linux on Rock64 - No Replies

Hey there,

I received my Rock64 about a week ago and I have been trying to get a consistent USB3 connection to work since then. I've tried multiple OSs, ports and devices and spent many hours googling.
What I've found out: booting without a USB device connected results in no USB3 device detection on later plug in into the USB3 port. USB3 into USB2 port works, USB2 into USB3 port works. But USB3 on USB3 does absolutely nothing. No output with

Code:
lsusb -t
and
Code:
lsblk

Now - after initiating a return, because I suspected a hardware failure - I've found that booting with any USB device connected to any USB port results in normal device detection afterwards. Even plugging devices in and out in any combination works flawlessly then.

... what?! Can somebody explain to me what is going on here, because the return packet is already paid. If it turns out to be fixable through software, I'd need to cancel the refund task. I'm currently on
Code:
Linux DietPi 4.4.132-1075-rockchip-ayufan-ga83beded8524 #1 SMP Thu Jul 26 08:22:22 UTC 2018 aarch64 GNU/Linux

Thanks in advance!

  Only ttyS2 working with rockpro64.
Posted by: rahulsharma - 01-14-2019, 03:59 AM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCKPRO64 - Replies (1)

Hi,
I am using ubuntu18 minimal LXDE image with my rockpro64.

I am using ttyS2 for UART communication. Have two doubts-
1) When i use 1500000 Buadrate, then it works fine. But when i change its baudrate to 115200 then after some time, my UART gives unexpected symbols but not correct data. So is ttyS2 should be used with 1500000 baudrate only?
2) I wanted to use ttyS4(UART4), But it is not working. Can i enable this?
Thanks.


Star Free 14" Pinebook Spare Parts (You Pay Shipping)
Posted by: Nierika - 01-13-2019, 04:56 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook - Replies (3)

I broke the screen of my 14" a while back and have no interest in fixing it.  My Thinkpad x230 is better suited for my needs.

If anyone needs any replacement parts let me know.  No charge but you cover shipping.

Hopefully I can help out someone who needs some spare pieces  Cool


  PINE64 STEREO AUDIO DAC POT
Posted by: jtgiroux - 01-12-2019, 04:56 PM - Forum: Pine A64 Hardware, Accessories and POT - No Replies

What OS will this work with?  I have the original Pine A64+ 2GB board.

I am not interested in using it with Volumio, as I already have two Raspberry Pis with HiFi Berry boards running it.  Thanks!

  Motherboard PCI-E questions
Posted by: Debbie - 01-10-2019, 07:24 PM - Forum: Getting Started - Replies (1)

Good evening everyone. So I have been reading and reading and cannot find an answer anywhere so decided to try here. I bought a Intel 7 Lenovo Yoga 720-151KB laptop a few years ago and am still very happy with it. All I use it for is gaming. I decided to check my specs today because my drivers were out of date with Speccy and it says my motherboard will accommodate 4 PCI-E x1 slots and only one is filled and 1 PCI-E x4 slot which is not filled. I am currently only running the very first PCI-E x1 card. From what I am seeing it can increase the computers power with each card. It is already a very fast computer I am happy with it but if I could upgrade it I could only be happier. Who isnt happy with more speed right? I have changed out power cords and video cards on desktop computers but have never messed with a laptop. What kind of a system boost if any would I get if I upraded and filled all these slots? And I am also running a NVidia GeForce GTX 1050 card and was wondering if that could be upgraded or should I just leave that be. Any answers would be appreciated but especially about the PCI-E cards. Thanks again.
