Hi People!

I have 2 usb dongles for WiFi, but none of them are working in Rock64.

First one is a TP-Link WN721N uses AR9271 chip and is not accepted.

The second is a DLink DWA-123 uses RTL8188EU driver and is not accepted.
I think this is the same used in the dongle sold originaly by Pine site.

I running a Rock64 board with 2 Rb of Ram.

S.O. = MATE 1.12.1
Release 16.04.3 LTS (Xenial Xerus) 64-bit
Kernel Linux 4.4.77-rockchip-ayufan-136 aarch64

Running ifconfig only lo and eth0 are shown.

Running iwconfig only lo and eth0 are shown.

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to have a linux build with opencl working (clinfo finds 0 platforms).

I am using ayufan's outstanding xenial-minimal-rock64-0.5.15-136-arm64.img.xz.

I even tried getting on the https://github.com/rock64-linux/libmali but it still does not give me the clinfo positive identification.

Anyone care/know how to enable the OpenCL.

Thanks
Adrian

I`m looking for days to find any Info - is the board capable of 4K@60Hz ? 
I read the hardware is not capable of true 60 FPS @ 4K Resolution.

Is this true ?

Can I render 4K60Hz from memory into Framebuffer ?

Thanks for any Information on this issue.

Hi,

I was just wondering how one would go about upgrading the Ubuntu version. I did, and then it failed to boot, but I'm not sure whether it's a U-Boot problem or an OS problem. I don't believe the kernel would have been upgraded in the system-wide upgrade when the kernel in use is from the Pinebook PPA, but I'm not really sure.

If one were to upgrade the system, assuming all drivers and such would work, what other work would be required before the system was at least operable (with graphical environment)?

Hello, I need help with setting up HTPC and NAS on rock64. When I installed Linux, I knew set up NAS (open media vault), but the videos did not play smoothly. On the Android video was good for me, but I can not set up the NAS again.

Would you help me set up Linux so that videos can be played good on 4k and youtube in fullHD too?

Spotify does not work on rockchip, so I tried it through a web player that does not work either on browsers for me.

Thanks for help, and sorry for my english.

I have a Pine64 2gb (A64-DB-2G-Rev B) that I got during the Kick Starter campaign.

I'm an insurance agent, and I do a lot of presentations at restaurants and other places like that.  I would like to use my Pine to display PPT's and potentially other media files on tv's or projectors.

What would be the best OS to load on my Pine to run this?  


P.S. I have a Kennison wireless presenter mouse with a usb dongle, is it possible for it to work as well?  Or another input device.

Hi,
I have problem with a shipment from Aliexpress. The shipment details follows,

However, there is no delivery so far and Deutsche Post tells me there is no shipment with this tracking code in their system. Do you have any idea/suggestion? 

Having used the Pine 2.0 Beta 3 tool to place images on microSD cards I can not seem to find one that uses both the HDMI and LCD screen as video output.   (or get me to a login prompt with the LCD ribbon cable plugged in)

The Xenial MATE version as presented by the tool will boot to a Unix login (or looked like it - didn't actually log in) on the HDMI without the LCD cabled in, but with the LCD in AND a monitor plugged in the SOPINE/baseboard model A.  And by not boot I mean it shuts off.

It seems the functionality exists as the Android 6.0.1 (non eMMC) version will allow for the LCD and the HDMI to work at the same time.  (I did not try Android 5 and Android 7 did not allow operation of the LCD)   As the limitation seems to be software, is there a GNU/Linux version which would work with both video output methods?

hello,
i know that the pinebook64 dosen't have a bootloader, bout is there a way to  install or boot in to a live usb or micro sd card? any help is appreciated.

Hi,

Does anybody have Unifi controller working on Rock64?
