  MIPI LCD 10.1
Posted by: Valma - 07-25-2017, 01:39 AM - Forum: LCD and Touch Panel - Replies (10)

Good morning,

i'm looking for a lcd screen without touch screen and larger than pine 64 table(7''). I found one but i don't know if i need to have into account anything more. LCD Screen is HSD101PUW1-A00. I would like to run my pine64 with debian and this screen.

Here you have the datasheet:
http://www.yslcd.com.tw/docs/product/HSD101PUW1-A00.pdf

I can check it has a MIPI protocol with 4 lanes, but the connector has 34 pins. I think that i can make the conector with a ffc(do it myself) conecting correctly the pins but i don't know if i need to have into account anything more to run the LCD Screen...

Another question is about the squematic about MIPI-LCD, i don't understand the squematic because it seems the conector has 32 pins but actually the conector has 30 pins...could anybody explain me that?Are there more information about this conector DSI and its interface?

So...summarizing:
1.- Do i need to have into account anything more to run the screen?(driver for linux or something like that)
2.- I don't understand well the squematic of MIPI-LCD


Thank you!

  Microphone specs
Posted by: duncanh - 07-24-2017, 01:14 PM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCK64 - Replies (4)

Hello

I happened upon the Rock64 whilst looking for a better sound solution for a project I'm trying to get working with a Pi3. I need to record ultrasound through an electret mic with at least 192kHz sampling rate and there only sound cards for the Pi which reached 192kHz are no longer available. Whilst most mics aren't spec'd to record that high they some will apparently pick up such sound reasonably well.
I see that the Rock64 has an on board microphone - what is the maximum sampling rate?


I've only just got into this sort of thing so I hope my question makes sense

Thanks

Duncan


  Battery Issues - Nothing Else Works
Posted by: mesaxi - 07-24-2017, 10:00 AM - Forum: Android on Pine A64(+) - Replies (3)

I bought a battery and installed it on my pine, but when the board isn't plugged directly into the USB Charger nothing but the most basic board functions work. Anything in the USB slot is not read, there is no audio output from the 3.5mm jack, there is no HDMI output. Is there something wrong with my board or maybe the OS, or is it so limited that my battery purchase was a total waste? I mean between this and not being able to turn the board on/off I'm about ready to ditch it and get a Raspberry Pi, which is a shame because I've wasted a lot of money at this point.

edit: I should mention I'm using the Android 5.1 LCD build, in case that's the issue. Bluetooth and WiFi do still work while on battery.


  Pinebook Arrived
Posted by: KryPtAlIvIaN - 07-24-2017, 09:44 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook - Replies (1)

I must say I was blown away by the Pinebook! 


I honestly thought it would be a lightweight laptop with cheaper materials, but boy was I wrong! This thing feels more expensive than some of the laptops I've bought over the years! The system is very fast and beautiful, definitely surpassed my expectations.

I can't wait to try Luke's RetroArch image on it Smile


Wink Retroarch on A64
Posted by: Luke - 07-24-2017, 06:48 AM - Forum: Game Station Emulation - Replies (41)

Hello everyone, 



If you are using a Pine A64

pfeerick is kindly building Retroarch images for the Pine A64 for those who wish to test and offer feedback. As of 0.7.5.8 most issues with the Retroarch front-end should have been ironed out.  


If you are using a different A64 device:

You can use the linked script to make a dedicated Retroach image   

Here is the script

Easiest way to use the script is as follows: 
First download one of the minimal ubuntu images (needs to be 0.7.5 or later!) for your device. 

SSH into your Pinebook (you will be copying and pasting contents so SSH is easiest) and create a script file in your home folder: 

Code:
sudo nano install_retroarch.sh

Copy and paste the contents of the script and save the file by pressing CTRL + X followed by Y and clicking Enter. 

Make the script executable: 

Code:
sudo chmod +x install_retroarch.sh

Now all you have to do is execute the script and it will do the rest: 

Code:
sudo ./install_retroarch.sh


Upon reboot Retroarch will start in full screen. 


I have so far tested: Megadrive, SNES, FBA - all work great and run at full speed. 
I put it together it for my own purposes but decided to share it with you lot to spare others who want to do this all the hard work Tongue 


Here are some features of the linked image:

* Minimal ubuntu image with xterm twm 
* Disabled CLI login
* Boots straight into Retroarch (added to rc.local)
* Retroarch with all available emulator cores
* Quitting Retroarch powers down the board (added to rc.local)
* Customised the front-end theme for performance 
* Set up a ROMs folder where BIOS and ROM files should be placed. Its accessible via SMB as guest (no credentials needed)
* Start + Select = Retroarch menu in emulator

What doesn't work (to my knowledge)

*Mupen (N64)
*PSX emulators

  Boots just fine. Can not install new image.
Posted by: willpine - 07-24-2017, 12:41 AM - Forum: Getting Started - Replies (5)

Boots and runs just fine, however the Linux Mate is a little heavy, runs slow, bogs down etc. I wanted to try a lighter O.S. I have three SD cards, used three installer types including the Etcher remix made for Pine64. Once I install the image on the SD card/s it will not boot. The power button symbol just flashes until I remove the card, then it continues to boot just fine into Mate. I have used all three of these sd cards to boot a live image of the android-for-pine but that too was sluggish and unresponsive.

TL;DR SDCards I have worked previously, they do not work when I image DietPi.

Is there a preboot screen, verbose, or a bios type screen to monitor the boot process?

This unit came pre-flashed from the factory.

  Would HDMI screen for Raspberry PI work?
Posted by: dhewko - 07-23-2017, 06:39 AM - Forum: HDMI Port - Replies (1)

I have the Pinea64 4GB with the LCD screen. Unfortunately, Ubuntu doens't work with LCD, so I'm wondering if I purchase a HDMI LCD screen for the raspberry pi, would this work with the Pine??


  read/write gpio in c example?
Posted by: ealbers - 07-23-2017, 05:46 AM - Forum: General Discussion on PINE A64(+) - Replies (1)

Can someone please point me to where theres a simple GPIO example in C?

Is the GPIO memory mapped somewhere?  I need to read/write the pins at very high speed, so I'd like access as close to the hardware as possible.
Thanks
