I recieved my Rock 64 yesterday. Using a Windows laptop, I downloaded a couple of images for the Rock 64
I formatted a MicroSD card with SD formatter, then burned a image, using win32diskimg, all in windows {using a usb sd card reader/writer}.

It all went great, plugged the card in the rock 64, and booted up, no problems.

Here is my problem ... once I put a microSD card into the Rock 64, and boot it up .... I can no longer put that Microsd card back into the usb stick, and have it recognized,

I plug the usb stcik into the computer )windows, or Rock64 .. they recognize usb reader/writer, but not the MicroSD card inserted into it.

I will note, when I take the microsd card out of the usb stick, and put it back into the rock 64, the card works fine .. so the card is not destroyed ..it is like .. the rock 64, once it boots up with the microsd card .. it sets some kind of .. bit or something, stopping it from being seen, in a usb reader/writer.

I have tried it with 2 MicroSD cards now ... I also have tried plugging the usb stick into the Rock 64, with a MicroSD card, that was used previously in a rock64, same result.

I have no idea why this is happening. I have re-written microsd cards many times, for the pi 3, never a problem.

I have not expanded the microsd card, to use all the space on it yet .. but can't see why that would make a diffrence.

I am a relative newbie,when it comes to Linux, so maybe this is just something I don't know {although, as I mentioned, never had this problem, with my Pi's.

Any ideas?

Thanks, Jake

It might be a dumb question but what is the polarity of the DC input on the Rock64, I forgot to order a PSU at the time of purchasing so I have to source one. I haven't founded it stated anywhere.

I tried to get Docker running, but it doesn't work as posix mqueue is not enabled in the kernel (using ayufan's Xenial minimal image).

Before I start trying to solve that myself, which hopefully only involves compiling the kernel with mqueue configured, I wanted to ask if anyone else got Docker running or if someone knows if there is a reason why mqueue isn't enabled.

Is anyone working on the sound out on the laptop? Iether the internal speakers or headphone would be nice, and a line out would be great too!

Nice of them to provide a free case with the r64!

First, let me say.. I (or Pine, I am sure) can say my experience will always be what happens, I am sure, but... 

I ordered my rock 64 with expidated shipping, it shipped out on the 5th (today is the 9th.  In response to a post in another thread, I mistakenly thought it shipped the 1st ... My mistake, confused it with other orders from China, in 17 track.... 

Anyway, 
My rock 64 is now sitting at my local post office, to be delivered tomorrow (missed getting it today, by 40 
Minutes. 

So, with expidated shipping, the rock 64 made it from China, to my local post office, in 5 days. Very impressive.

Hello guys.

An idea ?

Hello

Has someone installed  a RDP Client?

Thanks

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?
