Hello!
I can't download the PineWifiServer.gz file from the wiki page.
All the links in the Program/Driver section of the Downloads except the first three are not working.
Is there any other place I can get the Wifi Server.
Best regards

Edit (15/10/2017) Newest pre-release image allows you to set display mode to fix flickering. Check ayufan's git.
It seems that the newest batch (as of 04/08/2017) of Pinebooks shipped with an older Ubuntu image based on 3.10.105-bsp-1.2-ayufan-59 (you can check if your's is running this version by typing uname -a in terminal).
Some Pinebook's experience screen flickering while running this kernel version, which is solved by upgrading to newest release version.
To update your installation navitgate to /usr/local/sbin and run the following update scripts:
Code: sudo ./pine64_update_kernel.sh 0.6.2
sudo ./pine64_update_uboot.sh 0.6.2
sudo ./pine64_update_package.sh 0.6.2
Run all three and then reboot.
For those feeling adventures and who want to try out pre-release images with additional features but also bugs and broken settings please see ayufan's git releases with instructions on how to update.

Pine64 corp when will you have Ubuntu linux ready?
You promised I think in one of the videos a demonstration of Linux on pine64. It would be good to see it now, especially since the delays.

Video noise on new Pinebook |

After booting my newly delivered Pinebook up for the first time today, I noticed quite a bit of noise on the display. There seem to be randomly flashing pixels on the display that are most noticeable against a blue background. I'd almost describe it as sort of sparkle or shimmer effect. I tried to capture the effect on video which was a bit tricky. I searched a bit and didn't seem to find any other topic with this issue. They appear to be flashing randomly, it doesn't seem like it is the same set of pixels repeatedly. Any ideas for how I might try to fix this? Thanks much!

pinebook won't power up or charge |

Hello, I don't use my pinebook often so it seems like after a few days of non use the batteries loose there charge and usually I can just plug it in for a few hours and get it to power on. This time I've left it plugged in for 2 hours + and I still am unable to get any indication that it's ever charging. I've held the power button down for several seconds, which usually will turn the green power light on and if it can't boot it will show a battery charging icon on the screen. I'm not sure when/how but there is a little light next to the power port that turns on. It's not turned on. The last time I charged this unit the plastic on the case above the power port would get very hot. I'm also using the power adapter that came with the pinebook. Is there something else I can try or is this thing toast?
