I'm looking to drive this resolution but nothing I've done so far - in any of the distros - has been able to support this resolution.  Currently I'm trying to configure DietPi manually but I just get a blank screen;  DietPi (with LXDE) also fails to return the image if it blanks due to screen timeout (which I also can't change properly).  I've tried all of the major offerings that I can find but nothing seems to work properly.


It seems so far that unless you're equipped to run 1920x1080, 1280x720, 800x600 or 720x480 you're not going to get anywhere;  is this some kind of hardware and/or screen driver issue with the Rock64's chipset?

The lxrandr program permits only these resolutions (auto seems to default to 1920x1080 which my video system squashes to display).   For reference I tried driving a Pi via this monitor (with its HDMI <> VGA adaptor) and it works ok;  I've run other HDMI outputs through this config as well (PC) and they displayed without issue.

Text display is also distorted, I think the system is desperately trying to output 1920x1080 and my adaptor is trying to compensate.   I've tried some of the manual modifications for text but desktop GUI configuration still eludes me.

Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Does Hyperion work with the rock64?

It's mostly used for creating your own ambilight and can be used with libreelec/kodi etc for watching movies and stuff.
It's working fine with the RPi, and since the rock GPIO Pins are supposed to be the same, it should work as well... but dunno...

I asked Raybuntu, but he does not use it..
maybe any one did try it?

What size and what brand eMMC is compatible with the ROCK64?

What size and what brand of eMMC is compatible with the ROCK64?

I'm tryin go build the gt9xx touchscreen driver, and there's no way to proceed:

make -C /lib/modules/3.10.104/build M=/home/ubuntu/pine64-gt9xxf_ts modules
make[1]: Entering directory '/lib/modules/3.10.104/build'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'modules'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory '/lib/modules/3.10.104/build'
Makefile:11: recipe for target 'all' failed

I will admit that the /lib/modules/3.10.104/build directory *used to* exist, but it was a symlink to a /home/user account name that, of course, does not exist on my machine. 

Help!

I recently ordered 3 EMMC modules from the Pine64 store. Two of the modules work fine, but the third does not work. It is not not recognized by my computer. I am using the official Pine64 EMMC adapter.

How do I go about getting the defective EMMC card replaced?

Thanks!

Hi,

I’m using Ayufans Ubuntu image for pine64. 

When I look at sources for software updates it has Longsleeps sources ticked and not Ayufans - is this correct or do I need to change this?

Hi,

Downloaded Ayufans latest Pine64 Xenial image with Mate desktop. 

The ‘software boutique’ is loading but when I choose any category to download from it says it is not available for my device?

Can anyone help here?
