Hi everyone,

I'm working on a project on SOPine with its Baseboard Model A. 

Currently, I want to do some test on the 5MPixel CMOS Camera module bought from the PINE store. But I can't make the camera work(I'm using Xenial Mate OS), I plug the camera in the CSI port and successfully modprobe the s5k4ec and vfe_v4l2 driver, still can't work in both g-streamer pipeline and guvcview app.


Later I found there may be a power issue by probing the CSI port, and I checked the schematic of the baseboard, seems like the power to the CSI port is disabled by default, and the power is managed by the "AXP803" PMIC. I tried to reconfigure the AXP803 to enable the power to the CSI port but I can't detect any i2c device by using the i2ctools, seems the A64 is using a private RSB to control the PMIC.

I'm pretty new to the PINE, so I may miss something. Does anyone know how to enable the CSI port on the baseboard Model A to make the camera work? Thanks in advance.

Hi All,

I have one pine A64 LTS device.
I downloaded BSP for u-boot to compile and boot the u-boot in the device but I have no steps to compile the u-boot.

I downloaded BSP from this below link provided by pine.
http://wiki.pine64.org/index.php/SOPINE_...re_Release

Can anyone help me providing the complete steps to compile
1) is this the right BSP i downloaded from the shared link.
2) need the procedure to enable the BSP in u-boot.
3) Steps to compile the u-Boot with the required BSP.
4) steps required to load the u-boot image into the board.

Please help me as i am new to this environment

Thanks
Prakash

Manjaro images are now available for download directly from the project's website.

I've downloaded the Android source and built it. I have all of the Android partition images.

So where is the utility that combines these partitions into a bootable SDCard image?

Hi all,

Anyone know how to manually install libmali and get it working with X?  Do you also need xf86-video-armsoc?

Thanks!

I've connected my clusterboard but it will only stay on while I hold the normal ATX momentary switch.  Does it need a continuous switch?

I just got my parts and I was noticing the clusterbooard has a place for eMMC.  I also noticed that the compute modules look like they don't have a place to connect eMMC chips.

Is there no way to put eMMC on to the compute modules?

Is the one on the board just some kind of Network Attached Storage?

Hi Everybody I'm a small manufacturer of musical instruments 

I have an idea to develop a new product to be centered on a SBC computer and based on the information I collected on the net, it looks like the ROCKPro64 may be a very attractive HW platform for that. 

I'm definitely not a programmer and neither would have time to start learning it... I'm writing here looking for the help of an expert for translating my ideas on an evaluation/test device as first, and possibly (and hopefully :-)) later on having a stage-ready musical instrument 

There is any expert user here willing to help me in this 'venture" ? As said above I'm a small manufacturer so my R&D budget is accordingly sized so to say, but of course, I do intend to compensate for the efforts done. Please PM me.  Indication where to find the support I need would be highly appreciated too. 

I hope this message is appropriate for the forum, If not, please accept my deep apologies and delete the it . Thanks in advance

A little bit of community chat maintenance. With all the new gear coming this year - and with brand new categories of gear being introduced  - the IRC and Discord have been updated to reflect this and to accommodate the growing line of PINE64 devices. The current list of channels attempts to strike a balance between granularity (I don't really want to have one channel per device) and having everything discussed in one or two channels as it was until now. We'll see how it plays out.

The IRC and Discord chats have now all been bridged, and IRC logging has been updated to include the new channels.

We currently have the following channels:

• #pine64
  
• #rock64
  
• #pinebook
  
• #pinephone
  
• #cube
  
• #offtopic
  

• #pine64 is where you connect to by default in IRC, and the channel is concerned with discussion on Pine A64 (+)/ LTS, SOPine, Clusterboard and Pine H64  
  
• #rock64 is concerned with discussion on Rock64 and RockPro64
  
• #pinebook concerns the Pinebook, Pinebook Pro and PineTab
  
• #pinephone is solely meant for the PinePhone Dev / end-user product
  
• #cube is for discussing CUBE IP-Camera  
  
• #offtopic is an unloggedchannel for off topic conversation
  

I am not sure if I should go to the DietPi forum, or if my issue is not specific about DietPi and I am in the right place. Anyway...

My setup consists of a Rock64 4G board connected to a WDLabs Pi drive. I have replaced the HDD cable delivered by (the now defunct) WDLabs with another interfaced with USB3. The WDLabs Pi drive has no SATA connector, see here. I have verified that the USB driver used for the disk is not UAS, in fact the HDD drive is using the usb-storage driver:
