Hi guys. Is there ANY Version of Linux that fully supports the LCD? I have the 2GB board with the LCD display. I prefer one thst boots to a desktop.
Thanks,
Mike

Hi All,

Got one of the original Kickstarter Pine64 Plus models with the LCD output. Can I use the LCD touchscreen on the site:
https://www.pine64.org/?product=7-lcd-to...reen-panel

With Volumio OS and make a cool standalone Spotify player?


Im aware there was some early Linux support issues.. that all taken care of now?

Has anyone tried to make a netbook out of a rock64 yet? I'd like to get the 4gb version and give it a try, mostly for learning python, and make it small and very portable, as most laptops are just too hefty to carry around everywhere.

Would it run a regular Linux distro? Would you be able to install regular Linux programs?
Sorry for the noob questions, but you gotta start somewhere.

How can I get the damn IR receiver working? Can it be done in android?

Seems like this forum doesn't get many posters. Almost getting like a ghost town . Tbh it makes me not want to buy one for fear of lack of support.

Hi,

I am pondering this and am wondering if anyone has tried any of the dedicated offrngs on a Rock64. Both ClearOS and IPFire have Arm builds, but I have no idea if they work with the R64. Has anyone tried those out or any similar offerings?

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

I am considering setting up my rock 64 as a firewall using IPFire which will require another Ethernet port. There are many usb3 to Ethernet adapters and I am not sure if they are compatible. Here are a couple of options:

https://www.amazon.com/Anker-Portable-Et...t+ethernet

https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-1000...t+ethernet

This brings me to my questions.

1. Has anyone successfully tested using a usb3 gigE adapter on Ayufun's latest Debian release?
2. If yes, is there a specific version that is needed for compatibility purposes?
3. Do we think that either of the ones linked above will work? If not is there an alternate that you would suggest?

Thank you

Just got a PINE64A 2G and weird enough is a Rev. B board made on 2016-03-21 . I thought Rev. C was out  anyway, I wanted to have the openHAB running on this SBC.

Tried booting openhabianpine64-xenial-201706161506-git7ff273e-crcadda6dbb.img with Ethernet and without no difference the boot process freezes

New to the pine 64 world was wondering what you guys would recommend for a os for use of a weather station and or security system.

Preface


In this guide, I will be showing how to create a raid array, using the raid 0 configuration. This allows you to have maximize storage available, however it comes at the risk of data loss in case of hardware failure. 






It also has the benefit of having really pretty "blinkenlights" effect when the USB drives are being accessed. 



Prerequisites


ROCK64 board running Debian or Ubuntu, connected to the local network

Access to terminal, either locally or via SSH


At least 2 Flash drives (or hard drives)

Recommended: USB Hub, for ease of access.
