  Supported speed of sdcard?
Posted by: humanitypeace - 07-09-2018, 11:57 AM - Forum: General Discussion on PINE A64(+) - Replies (1)

I have a U3 rated micro-SD on which I have installed arch linux running on a Pine64+ 2GB model.

I have run a test and even though the card is rated to up to 95MB/s read speed and minimum rated write speed of 30MB/s I get constantly get read write rates of ranging only 10 to 15 MB/s (having done some testing with


Code:
dd if=/dev/mmblk0p2 of=/dev/null bs=2M count=1000 &



Is there any documentation which speed the mmc/sdcard is connected to the A64 of the Pine64+

Can those discouragingly slow speeds be confirmed, or is only my setup so sluggish.


PS: is there any alternative on the Pine64+ for a faster persistant memory storage (something like a emmc, sata, via GPIO bitbanging?)


  OpenWRT installation guide
Posted by: Sander - 07-09-2018, 09:42 AM - Forum: Linux on Pine A64(+) - No Replies

Hi there,

I am trying to install OpenWRT in my PINE A64 but right now I am stuck. So I searched the web for a guide to install openWRT but cant seem to find any, for the PINE at least.

I already downloaded the OpenWRT image and installed it on a 16GB microSD, put te microSD in the PINE and plugged in the power. I connected my laptop to the LAN port of the PINE and tried to reach the web interface by 192.168.1.1. That did not seem to work so I tried to connect to the PINE using Putty and that worked. I found a video on youtube how to enable the web interface using Putty, but that didnt work so now I dont know what to do anymore.

To enable the web interface it seems like you need to update some packages. But I can get the PINE to connect to internet so can update either.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance!


  [solved] Unable to start X
Posted by: Osiander - 07-09-2018, 06:56 AM - Forum: Linux on Rock64 - Replies (8)

Hello together,

I've got some troubles to start X on my Rock64.

So, fist of all I've donwloaded "Debian Stretch Mate Community Build Image [microSD Boot] [0.5.15-136-20171222]", this one: http://files.pine64.org/os/ROCK64/debian...m64.img.xz

After burning the image on sd I've bootet from this and then apt update and apt upgrade.

After reboot I've saw in the console:

Code:
[  OK  ] Started Light Display Manager.
[  OK  ] Stopped Light Display Manager.
[FAILED] Failed to start Light Display Manager.
See 'systemctl status lightdm.service' for details.

Okay, systemctl status lightdm.service says:


Code:

  Mali OpenGL ES 2.0 SDK
Posted by: ab1jx - 07-07-2018, 10:04 PM - Forum: Linux on Rock64 - Replies (4)

Docs are linked from
https://developer.arm.com/products/graph...li-450-gpu
see DUI0607C_mali_opengl_es_20_sdk_for_linux_on_arm_ug.pdf

This is a weird URL but it was hard to find:
http://openlinux.amlogic.com:8000/downlo...x86.tar.gz  I think arm/mali pulled it

I managed to get all the examples to build on a Raspberry Pi, but it doesn't have a Mali so they don't run.  There's one called frame_buffer_object that's a spinning cube and on each of its faces is another spinning cube, supposedly anyway.

If you've got all the prerequisites installed, unpack the tar.gz.  In the directory that creates make a build_arm directory and cd into it.
do:
export TOOLCHAIN_ROOT=/usr/bin/
then
cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -DTARGET=arm ..

If it builds OK look in the samples directory that gets created.  There are samples of OpenGL ES 2.0, 3.0, 3.2.

Anybody have any luck installing mssql Docker image. 

I can pull the image ok and create the container but the container does not display port 1433 used in the installation command.

I'm using ubuntu 16.04.04 and Docker 18.03.1-ce

  ayufan's bionic minimal boots only the first time
Posted by: fczuardi - 07-07-2018, 01:44 PM - Forum: Linux on RockPro64 - Replies (6)

I got my rockpro64 and I am trying to get it running, I have created a sd card with the image bionic-minimal-rockpro64-0.7.3-1040-arm64.img.xz

The first boot works seamlessly, the white LED is on, hdmi tv is detected and login with rock64/rock64 takes me to the shell...

But if I turn the computer off and on again, nothing happens anymore: no LED, no signal on hdmi...

Any ideas on how to get more information or what might be happening?


  Content Control
Posted by: teddyj - 07-07-2018, 01:22 PM - Forum: Getting Started - Replies (1)

Team, 

Trying to load apps on the google play store and keep getting a warning for "Error: Your Content Filtering Level does not allow you to purchase this item." .... The app I am attempting to DL, Amazon Video. Running > Android 6.0 (HDMI Video Output) [20170112 v2.0.1]. I have relaxed all User Controls in settings, and no change to the "Error". 

Little help on how to remove this control. Thank you,
Ted
