  Rock64 - program windows with inverted color
Posted by: HelgeMK - 11-21-2017, 04:02 PM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCK64 - No Replies

Hi, I am a new Rock64 user, running Ubuntu Mate. So far, all fine, except when opening a program, such as LibreOffice, the menu is unreadable, everything turns black, until I hover over it, which I bringing back the menu. I tried different display settings. I have been testing the sytem with a 7 inch LCD screen and a Samsung tv (38 inch), both via HDMI. I heard from another user that he is having the same issue.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks, Helge


  force HDMI output for VNC
Posted by: dontpostalot - 11-21-2017, 02:58 PM - Forum: Linux on Rock64 - Replies (1)

Hi

On the Pine64 to get x11vnc going I used to add the following to /boot/config.txt:

hdmi_force_hotplug=1
hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=16

I've looked at creating an xorg.conf file but the configure fails since I don't have a screen connected atm...


So how to force hdmi output on the Rock (Debian image)?

  PuTTY Disconnected : no supported authentification methods available (server sent : p
Posted by: tomtomtom - 11-19-2017, 03:03 PM - Forum: Linux on Rock64 - Replies (3)

Hello;
I use PuTTy to connect to the OMV ROCK 64.


I just want to connect simply with login and password.
I try to add a SSH public key, but no success.
So i delete PuTTY, clean config and reinstall.
I try to connect simply with login and password.
But when i put the login, this message appears.

'PuTTY Disconnected : no supported authentification methods available (server sent : publickey)'

Putty stop at :

Code:
login as: root

Do you know if i could connect log/pass again or it is a server issue, and the only solution is to fomat / reinstal OMV on the ROCK 64 or may i try to connect directly (with keyboard and screen) the Rock64 ?

Bug Fan speed controlled by CPU temp script
Posted by: mikedhoore - 11-18-2017, 03:37 PM - Forum: Rock64 Hardware and Accessories - Replies (2)

Hi,

I wrote a script to control my fan.
The fan speed is controlled by the temp of the CPU.
I'm pretty new to bash so I'm hoping for some feedback and off course is everybody free to use the script how they like. Big Grin

Code:
#!/bin/bash
#MikeD
#Automatic fan on cpu temp

CHECK_TIME=10 #IN SEC

function pwm(){
LOOP=0
while [ $LOOP -lt $(($CHECK_TIME*75)) ]; do
       echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio82/value
       sleep $1
       echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio82/value
       sleep $2
       LOOP=$(($LOOP+1))
done
}

function fanOff()
{
echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio82/value
sleep $CHECK_TIME
}

function fanTweFiv()
{
pwm .0025 .0075
}

function fanFifty()
{
pwm .0050 .0050
}

function fanSevFiv()
{
pwm .0075 .0025
}

function fanFull()
{
echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/gpio82/value
sleep $CHECK_TIME
}

while [ 1 ]; do
       TEMP=$(cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp)

       if [ $TEMP -le 20000 ]
       then
               fanOff
       fi
       if [ $TEMP -gt 20000  -a  $TEMP -le 35000 ]
       then
               fanTweFiv
       fi

       if [ $TEMP -gt 35000 -a $TEMP -le 50000 ]
       then
               fanFifty
       fi

       if [ $TEMP -gt 50000 -a $TEMP -le 65000 ]
       then
               fanSevFiv
       fi

       if [ $TEMP -gt 65000 ]
       then
               fanFull
       fi

done

Thx in advance Smile


  root running from usb connected ssd locks up system
Posted by: marcelser - 11-17-2017, 04:50 PM - Forum: Debian - No Replies

Hi,

I connected a msata SSD (Samsung EVO 850) mounted in a case with USB3 to lower USB Type A plug. Then I copied root & swap onto it and replaced initrd and modified uDev.txt to set root filesystem on SSD

The whole process is described in this threaqd https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=1114

In theory works fine. But after some time my pine just freezes out of nowhere. Sometimes it runs for minutes some times hours but sooner or later it locks up which is just a situation which I cannot accept as it's designed to run openHAB.

Does anybody have any input what might cause this before I throw the pine a64 into trash and switch back to rasperry pi3 which can boot directly from USB connected msata. I already have built 2 of these configurations and they just run and run and run.

Would be great to get any help, because the pine is much more powerful especially because I have the 2 GB version then the pi3 but it gave me so much headache so far that I'm really close to sell it and never try it again. Pine A64 support from creators also just sucks.
