  SDL2 and LXDE image
Posted by: Max11 - 05-24-2018, 01:51 AM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCK64 - No Replies

Hi,

I'm using the bionic-lxde-rock64-0.6.41-227-arm64.img.xz image with a Rock64. I tried compiling a test program with the included SDL2 library in /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu.

I got this error:

Code:
libGL error: unable to load driver: rockchip_dri.so
libGL error: driver pointer missing
libGL error: failed to load driver: rockchip

How can I get it to work?


Thumbs Down Pine64 was a Useless Project
Posted by: pushpendrak - 05-23-2018, 10:21 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PINE A64(+) - Replies (18)

I purchased 2 Pine64 boards thru crowdfunding hoping it will be a great board and good alternative to Raspberry, but still i am struggling to get a fully functional OS for these boards and mostly other people also stopped developing and supporting these boards. from past 3 years these boards are lying and eating dust. I tried stable release of Android, Ubuntu etc. but non of them are useful neither for work nor at entertainment.

Pine64 has not fulfilled what it promised while launch. Angry


  Supply DC power to Pine64 via Pi-2 Connector & Euler Bus?
Posted by: crapped - 05-23-2018, 03:49 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PINE A64(+) - Replies (2)

The Pi-2 connector of Pine64 has Pin 2 & 4 labeled as "5V", and Pin 6, 9, 14, 20 as "GND".
The Euler bus connector has Pin 2 & 4 as "DC IN", and Pin 6, 9, 14, 20 as "GND".

So, questions:
1. Can I supply regulated 5V DC to power the whole board via Pin 2/4 of Pi-2 or Euler bus connectors? 
2. Do these pins have the same 2A current rating as the micro USB power jack?


  Can't boot new 0.6.41
Posted by: Brendon - 05-23-2018, 02:37 PM - Forum: Linux on Rock64 - Replies (7)

Hi guys,

i have Rock64 4gb version and i can't boot new stretch 0.6.41 image (OMV). When i put SD card with flashed image (tried etcher and pine64 installer too ...), there are cycling errors like:

- Buffer I/O error on dev mmcblk1, logical block 0, async page read
- mmc1: tried to reset card
- mmcblk1: error -84 transfering data, sector ....... cmd response 0x900, card status 0x0

and more.

Around after minute device restart, and looping with errors again. I have three 16gb class 10 cards (all the same), but the same result with each. I don't think that it is a problem with cards, because I'm able to boot Jessie OMV image 0.5.15 without problems on any card. When i try to upgrade from 0.5.15, i end up like with flashed 0.6.41 image. I have read a few posts with similar problems, mostly on 4gb boards.


Someone here with 4gb board running new images? Please help and sorry for my english. TY.


  canNOT boot after a normal apt upgrade
Posted by: cooker - 05-23-2018, 07:39 AM - Forum: Linux on Rock64 - Replies (2)

The latest upgrade push kernel 4.4.126 and crash Rock64 when reboot.

By using serial cable, there is a short moment that user can select to boot from the previous kernel (the lovely stable 4.4.77).  So, be claim, everything is still there, I believe.

Unfortunately, seems that there is no hope for pure ssh remote control boxes.

Anyway, any elite kind enough to post a know-how on how to change the default boot order specifically for Rock64 on this forum.

Thank you


p.s.  if possible, also a know-how to prevent the kernel from being updated automatically.


the 1st know-how

$ sudo vi /boot/efi/extlinux/extlinux.conf

change the 2nd line from
default kernel-latest
to
default kernel-previous

Its a first pre-release so expect things not to work or not work as expected. As always, offer feedback here an on ayufan's git.


  How to enable mate/startx on boot in jessie
Posted by: desai_amogh - 05-22-2018, 11:55 PM - Forum: Armbian - Replies (5)

I have a 2gb pineA64+.  I used this image https://www.armbian.com/pine64/ and got a barebones termina.

Installed xorg and mate-desktop-environment through apt-get.  Now I am having a hardtime getting it to stick at booting.

I did add a line exec startx in ~/.profile. But it boots the pine64 and asks for credentials in terminal and only gets to the gui after credentials are entered.  I also couldnt fine /etc/default/grub toset it up there.

What am I missing here??
