Exclamation Shipment does not progress
Posted by: ahs1200 - 10-12-2018, 03:15 AM - Forum: Shipment Related Discussion - Replies (2)

This order has been sitting somewhere with the "translation" "Not duly cast"
https://t.17track.net/en#nums=LZ783129761CN

It seems as if the shipment was not done in such a way that it can progress. It seems as if it was not shipped sufficiently funded.

Could you please tell me, when I am to expect a delivery? We would like to build a cluster of these machines, once we've tested its performance. But are now worried, that the sipping is done so badly, that we might just lose out money. 

An Email of a week ago has gone unanswered.

The post I sent yesterday has gone without an answer too. 


  qemu-x86_64 fails on A72 cores, but runs nice on A53 ones :)
Posted by: guannais - 10-11-2018, 07:32 PM - Forum: Linux on RockPro64 - Replies (6)

I have tried to emulate a chroot for x86_64 architecture and it gave me inconsistent results, random successes and fails:

Code:
jinks /disco2/chroot/amd64 # chroot . /bin/bash
qemu: uncaught target signal 11 (Segmentation fault) - core dumped
root@jinks / # exit
exit
jinks /disco2/chroot/amd64 # chroot . /bin/bash
Instrucción ilegal
jinks /disco2/chroot/amd64 # chroot . /bin/bash
qemu: uncaught target signal 11 (Segmentation fault) - core dumped
Violación de segmento
jinks /disco2/chroot/amd64 # chroot . /bin/bash
root@jinks / # ls
Instrucción ilegal
jinks /disco2/chroot/amd64 # bin   dev  home  lib32     media  opt   root  sbin  tmp  var
boot  etc  lib   lib64  mnt    proc  run   sys   usr

jinks /disco2/chroot/amd64 #

Finally I got it to work, by forbidding to run on the last 2 cores:
Code:
jinks /disco2/chroot/amd64 # schedtool -a 0xf -e chroot . /bin/bash
jinks / # ls
bin   dev  home  lib32  media  opt   root  sbin  tmp  var
boot  etc  lib   lib64  mnt    proc  run   sys   usr
jinks / # exit
exit
jinks /disco2/chroot/amd64 #

And it is stable.

A bit more of information:
Code:

  Boot Android from USB?
Posted by: Max_H - 10-11-2018, 08:56 AM - Forum: Android on Rock64 - Replies (3)

Hi

Is there a Rock64 Android which boots from USB? Preferably from Rock64's USB 3 socket?

This is what I have tried:

  • Bionic works flawlessly with a M.2 SSD in an USB 3 adaptor using the USB 3 socket.
  • With Etcher (Linux and Win10) and rock64_20171204_stock_android_7.1.2_rooted_emmc.img as well as rock64_20180606_stock_android_8.1_emmcboot.img Etcher reports "It looks like this is not a bootable image", this probably because of a missing partition table.
  • With Pine64Installer (v 2.0.0 beta 3, Win10) and Stock android 8.1 emmc (build 20180606) from the list I get  "Invalid Message Unhandled rejection undefined Invalid message" after download.
  • Flashing ayufan's android-7.1-rock-64-rock64_atv-v0.3.13-r115-raw.img with Pin64Installer worked, but the image didn't boot.
Any suggestions?

  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?
