Hello,
Is it possible to have a performance test between different storage systems? (boot time, read/write)

I hesitate to take eMMC, I would like to have concrete example

And Is it possible to have a bench Pine 64+ 2Gb vs Rock64 2Gb ?

Thanks in advance

Can the pinebook work with a standard eMMC 5.0 module? The store has great prices, but there are 128gig modules from hardkernel and others: 128g eMMC

Can the FM tuner in the RTL8723CS sdio module be accessed from linux?

Has anyone attempted to run a Minecraft server on a Rock64 and have an idea of its performance?

I imagine since one will run on a Pine64 it should run quite smoothly on a Rock64 but any notes from anyone who has tried it or who has a good understanding of this new board would be helpful input in deciding to make a purchase.

Has anyone tried painting their Pinebook? I was thinking of killing a can of Krylon to make it less scrapeable.

Yep. I'm a Linux noob for sure. I bought a Pine64+ 2GB (No Wifi/BT and using HDMI for video) for a project here at work. My problem is that the project REQUIRES Flash. I had no idea that Linux and Android both made it so difficult to simply install Flash. Can someone here point me to directions on how to install Flash on the Pine64+ version of Ubuntu-Mate? Since Firefox is already installed in the Pine64 version (Xenial Mate [20161215] built by PINE64)? it would be most helpful if the directions are tailored to that.

Or is there another version of Linux that has Flash pre-baked?

The purpose of this obscure post is to document some modding discussion, high-lighting the lcd module clips and showing some close-ups of the lcd pane.


               


In the pic(s) above the clips which hold the lcd module in place are clearly seen. What is not clear is whether any glue (sticky goo) has been used as well during the manufacturing process.


   


Also not certain is what holds the glass pane in place (see pic above) ;  I suspect glue or sticky good substance at the edges of the pane.  Removing the module may be fairly straight-forward, but removing the necessary glass pane may be a trick;  and, the glass pane is definitely needed for touch, and may also be required for proper viewing as well due to the nature of polarized light through the display.

Just a thought but just ordered a rock64 4gb + PSU & 32GB eMMC module.

Usually I use a SD card and basically just copy the image via a card reader and hey presto.

Whilst I am waiting for delivery I am wondering how do I get the image onto the eMMC?

Never had a SBC with eMMC so a total noob question

I have a Pine64 2GB without anything extra attached (like WiFi, RTC battery, or monitor).

I have installed the ntp package and timedatectl reports the time and date being synchronized. The issue is that the time displayed is off by two hours (and a second).

I've had mine for about a week, and to be honest I'm disappointed. It runs excruciatingly slowly on android. In fact it's un useable. I have a Sandisk 32gb class 10 card and a fresh image. I have an Ethernet connection to it that is good. Any ideas please?
