  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?


  Yocto for Rock61
Posted by: miche - 10-06-2018, 09:21 AM - Forum: Linux on Rock64 - No Replies

Hi,

I just received my ROCK64 board and I wanted to use Yocto that I started to learn & use one month ago (so I just have basic knowledge on it).
Build results in several errors...
Do you know if this is still maintened?

I followed steps from wiki:
repo init --repo-url=https://github.com/rockchip-linux/repo -u https://github.com/rockchip-linux/manifests -b yocto -m pyro.xml
repo sync
MACHINE=evb-rk3328 DISTRO=rk-wayland . ./setup-environment -b build
bitbake rk-image-base

Thanks for your help!


  u-boot serial port speed?
Posted by: zener - 10-06-2018, 08:26 AM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCKPRO64 - Replies (2)

I recently got a RockPro64 and I'm assuming it's using u-boot. I have a USB serial port adapter attached to my board and I can log in at 115200.

However, when I power cycle the board I see that it's outputting something with different serial port parameters. What are the serial port settings to be able to interact with u-boot? And what is the command sequence to get into the u-boot command line?


Thanks!

  USB 2.0 OTG port
Posted by: gautham159 - 10-05-2018, 11:22 AM - Forum: Ubuntu - Replies (3)

I have rock64 board, flashed Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic minimal 64bit Image booting off of sd-card. Updated rk3328-rock64.dts


Code:
&usb20_otg {
    dr_mode = "**peripheral**";
    status = "okay";
};

compiled and updated rk3328-rock64.dtb. Connected usb (type A) cable, rock64 USB 2.0 OTG port - latop. Laptop couldn't detect the usb-serial connection though.


Is rock64 OTG port working? am I missing any steps?

Any suggestion is very much appreciated because otg support is the blocker!!

Thank you in advance,
Gautham


  Flashing android to eMMC from linux sd card boot
Posted by: nlem - 10-05-2018, 07:24 AM - Forum: Android on RockPro64 - Replies (1)

This is a method that worked to install android 8.1 onto emmc without using the emmc to SD card adaptor.
It also worked when using the Android tools did not.
Someone else may find this useful

=== Flashing Android to eMMC from Linux SD Boot (ROCKPro64)===

This method enables installing android to emmc using dd method without an emmc adaptor.
Can also be an alternate method if other methods are unsuccesful

Install Linux to an SD Card (Verified with bionic but may work with others).
Insert SD and empty eMMc (eMMc card must be empty so that ROCKPro64 boots off SD card).
(If necessary, emmc can be cleared using android tools linked below)
Boot Linux
Download desired dd android image from pine64 using curl (curl http://link_to_rockpro64_image.img.xz --output AndroidImage.img.xz)
Extract android image using unxz (unxz AndroidImage.img.xz)
Verify that emmc is visible by typing sudo fdisk -l | less. 
eMMc should be shown as /dev/mmcblk1 with the correct size
Write android image to emmc using dd (sudo dd if=./AndroidImage.img od=/dev/mmcblk1)
Wait for dd to finish. (if screen turns off give it another 10 minutes and assume its done).
Unplug power, remove sd card.
Plug power back in and enjoy android.


Thanks to lucasz for helping out.
