  rock64_health.sh
Posted by: hunderteins - 10-11-2018, 04:47 AM - Forum: Linux on RockPro64 - Replies (2)

Hello,
  I hated it to type sudo everytime for the simple rock64_health.sh-command, so I did some shell-voodoo to get the needed values from /sys without uid=0.
I was always interested in the gpu-temperature, too and with rockpro64 the frequency and governor of the A53/A72 cores. So I pimped the script further and got the attached one.
It should work on rock64 and 4.1x.x, too, but I have not tested it yet. Can some good soul can me give feedback on this?

Works like this:

Code:
$ rock64_health.sh
CPU count      : 6  
CPU 0-3
 freq         : 600.00 MHz
 gov          : ondemand  
CPU 4-5
 freq         : 408.00 MHz
 gov          : ondemand  
SOC Temp       : 26.88 C
GPU Temp       : 27.50 C



TIA,
hunderteins

  Ubuntu Bionic LXDE Desktop /w Firefox and TightVNC stability
Posted by: HenryBenry - 10-10-2018, 04:50 AM - Forum: Linux on RockPro64 - Replies (4)

Hi all,

I use my Rock64 Pro as a simple browsing jump box. I VNC (TightVNC) to the Ubuntu Bionic LXDE Desktop (image)

 (18.04 and latest TightVNC build) and browse normally using Firefox. However within 20 seconds to a minute or two of browsing the Rock64 Pro reboots. It doesn't seem to be any particualar web contect that is the issue, although there could be something inbedded I'm missing.

Other CPU heavy tasks don't cause an issue. Neither does browsing over VNC using Chronium.

I don't have visual access to the console so i can't see if there is any on screen panic info.

Anyone got any ideas or troubleshooting thoughts?

I've heard of pulse audio issues causing stability problems?

It;s causing the whole rock to reboot not just the firefox process to crash.

Does firefox utilise some specialist driver support for rendering which Chronium does not? Or perhaps TightVNC is the culprit?

Thanks in advance.

  Boot from M.2/USB 3
Posted by: Max_H - 10-09-2018, 03:32 AM - Forum: Rock64 Hardware and Accessories - Replies (8)

Hi

I want to boot my Rock64 from a M.2 SSD (in a M.2/USB 3 adaptor) using the USB 3 socket of the Rock64. Unfourtunately this did not work. Power supply is a 5 V/5 A lab supply. With the USB 2 instead of the USB 3 socket everything is ok. Is this common? Will a USB 3 hub solve this problem? If yes: Is a passive hub ok? I would prefer a solution without a hub, however. Should I try with another M.2 adaptor and/or M.2 SSD?

  ATX power supply
Posted by: ice2642 - 10-08-2018, 03:42 PM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCKPRO64 - Replies (9)

Hello,

Sorry about my English.

Can I use one generic ATX power supply adapted to rockpro64 to work?

Or the power need to be the original from pine?


  Will we get a tracking number for when the pinebook gets shipped?
Posted by: sakuramboo - 10-08-2018, 01:38 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook - Replies (4)

I hard ordered it when I got the email and I got the receipt. In another thread it was mentioned that they will be shipping in October. Will we get a tracking number when they ship or will I come home one day and have a package on my doorstep?


  reset button
Posted by: RockPro64Newbie - 10-08-2018, 08:43 AM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCKPRO64 - No Replies

I accidentally hit the reset button when moving the rockpro64 closer to monitor to be out of the way.  I lost white button.
I turned off for 10minutes/unplugged, plugged it back in.... nothing. I pressed the power button...… nothing.   how do I reset board to come back on?

I am running LXDE UBUNTU.  iS THAT CORRECT FOR ME?  (I am not programmer, just user.
what I really preferred was Kubuntu version of Ubuntu from Ubuntu website.

The LXDE VERSION brings up black screen.  I waddled around and found what I thought were background options. I picked purple, but it didn't change over from black.

That's when I moved sbc and accidentally hit the reset button. GRRR, LOL

SUPER DUMMY HERE!  LOL  ANYONE WITH PATIENCE TO ASSIST?

hUMBLE THANKS!

  dedicated GPU PCIe on RockPro64
Posted by: ice2642 - 10-07-2018, 11:28 AM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCKPRO64 - Replies (3)

Hello,

I am new here and my English not is so good.

I plan to buy one RockPro64 2gb, maybe 4gb to use with Linux.

I am wondering to know if the PCIe slot in this board can work with a dedicated graphics card like this
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Club-3D-Radeon-...B00JGON2EM

The drivers for linux x86/amd64 can be ported for this this kind of use or it will be a very big challenge?
