Hello!

So, I have just got my wonderful RockPro64 and NAS enclosure going and I'm now starting to get the software set up. One thing I have noticed though is that after a while with no activity the RockPro64 (RP64) seems to go to sleep and no longer responds to an `ssh` login attempt.

Does anyone know if the RP64 can be set up with either `wakeonlan` or `eitherwake`? (I read somewhere about the BIOS needing to support this.)


I think I'll just give it a go but would be interested to hear from others if they think that is the right approach for a NAS/Docker setup. Perhaps not letting it sleep at all will be best. ?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Not sure if this is the right place for this but I'll try.

I got my new 1080p 11.6" pinebook yesterday, I'm typing this post on it. Fun.

It still has the OS it shipped with (don't even know what it's called).

IPv6 autoconfig is not working. I don't get a global address. It works on my Mac on the same networks (meaning I get a global address on it). I'm more of a BSD guy than Linux, so I'm probably missing something.

I wiresharked the router solicitation and advertisement. The solicitation is not the same as the Mac and I'm not sure if that matters. The advertisement from the router is the same one the Mac uses successfully though.

IPv6 does work, I can ping the link local address on other systems. Just no global address so I can get to the internet with IPv6.

Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction?

Thanks.

So what now? I have downloaded and etched the latest KDE image on a micro SD.
Now I put the card into the Pinebook and that thing boots into a nice Linux KDE Desktop.
Now, how do I move that image to the eMMC?
Bear in mind, the eMMC is empty and unformatted, I only have the KDE on the micro SD....

I replaced the eMMC and put in a SD card with a OS 'etched' to it. I can hold down the power button until I see the LCD backlight come on, but .. there's no bootup sequence. Am I missing something?

Most cases for the A64 will fit the RockPro64, correct?

Does anyone know of any case options with a fan? 

This is the only one I've found: https://www.c4labs.com/product/zebra-cla...e-options/, but I'm not sure it will fit the RockPro64. Has anyone tried this case?

My Rock64 order (Tracking # LZ867855082CN) has been stuck with the status "Custom Release" for almost a month now:

Is there anything that can be done to solve this issue? I'm not sure what I can do to help it get unstuck.

Best Regards,
Railgun

DHL sent me a TXT to my mobile that a delivery from SYABAS TECHNOLO is to be expected Thursday. and that I will have to sign and pay. But not how much and, honestly, I will be working. The question is... will it be the Pinebook? If so, I hope I can divert that into the office....

Hello all,
Rockpro64 has MidGard Mali-T860, Graphics Card,
It has support at least for OpenCl 1.2 FULL_PROFILE( I don't know about OpenCL2.0?! )

For those wanting to try it, in Lua,
There are a project mooncl( which are the Lua Bindings for the Official Khronos OpenCL™ API , by stetre )

It supports Lua >= 5.3 and OpenCL >= 1.2, ... so Rockpro64 is there too!!

You will need:

1. The last stable release of  ARM OpenCLComputeLibrary
   as root(Compile it for example during the night...it will take hours..)
   
   
2. After compile it,
   Check if ARM opencl icd is ok:
   
   Code:

   cat /etc/OpenCL/vendors/mali.icd
libMaliOpenCL.so
   
   
3. Run a test, on ARM OpenCLCompute Library:
   
   Code:

   cd /opt/ComputeLibrary && LD_LIBRARY_PATH=build/ ./build/examples/cl_convolution
(...)
Test passed
   
   
4. The mooncl Bindings for the Official Khronos OpenCL™ API
   as normal user ( ie: rock64 )
   
   Code:

   cd /home/rock64/Desktop && git clone https://github.com/stetre/mooncl.git && cd mooncl
make
sudo make install
   
   It installed the shared library and headers in /usr/local( has expected )
   
   
5. 1st test :
   
   Code:

   lua examples/platforminfo.lua

   Found 1 platform.
  
   platform no. 1:
   - name: ARM Platform
   - vendor: ARM
   - version: OpenCL 1.2 v1.r14p0-01rel0-git(966ed26).f44c85cb3d2ceb87e8be88e7592755c3
   - profile: FULL_PROFILE
   - extensions: 
      cl_khr_global_int32_base_atomics
      cl_khr_global_int32_extended_atomics
      cl_khr_local_int32_base_atomics
      cl_khr_local_int32_extended_atomics

   Mali-T860 is detected and in OpenCL 1.2 FULL_PROFILE!!! 
   
   
6. 2nd test( sum 20 + 30 in OpenCl):
   
   Code:

   lua examples/hello.lua
20 + 30 = 50
   Nice!!
   

Hello all,

This Thread was moved for Tutorials Section ..

Howdy, people of the Pine64 Forums!

I'm having a problem with the RTL8188eu wifi adapter sold on Pine64's site. www.pine64.org/?product=usb-wifi-802-11bgn-rtl8188eu-for-rock64

I am getting 50 kb a second with it. I'm using Armbian based on Ubuntu 16.04 with the Mate desktop but I've tried Ubuntu 16.04/18.04/LXDE and both Armbian based on Debian and based on Ubuntu 18.04.

I'm now using another wifi adapter that works for between 800 kb and 1.5 mb a second but I want to use the official Pine64 wifi adapter.

Thanks to anyone who can help me.
