  Can't boot headless after running update_uboot.sh
Posted by: Borglesnorgle Williams - 08-17-2017, 03:04 AM - Forum: Linux on Pine A64(+) - Replies (2)

Hello,

I've got a Pine64 2GB from a friend, with the original USB power supply. I've flashed Linux onto a quality SD card using Etcher on Linux.

Pine64 boots fine, I can login with SSH and do all the things I want to do. I'm running headless.

If I run the update_uboot.sh script, then I can no longer boot headless. I've tested the Debian and Xenial Base images. I don't have a serial console, so I can't see if there are any boot messages. All I can tell is that I can no longer connect via SSH, and it doesn't appear in my router's list of connected devices. If I connect a monitor before powering up it boots just fine.


  4.4 and Mainline Status Matrices

Earlier today nobe posted status matrices for the RK3328 (middle SoC in the matrix) in the IRC and I felt that it would be valuable to relay them on here. Included are: kernel 4.4 matrix, Mainline kernel matrix,  Linux SDK CHIP Status Matrix and Linux Funciton Status Matrix.

  Provide Boot Jumpers for the Rock64 Board
Posted by: MarkHaysHarris777 - 08-16-2017, 11:50 PM - Forum: General Discussion on ROCK64 - Replies (3)

The factory could provide boot jumpers for the Rock64 board similar to the ones linked.


... the bag is $28.50 for 1,000 pcs;  that is just  2.9 ¢  per board !    Tongue


   (  please notice the gripper tabs in the pic )

Question Installer shows SD Card size 0GB
Posted by: atr.mbl - 08-16-2017, 11:05 PM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook - Replies (1)

For some reason the pine64 installer (on win7 32-bit) cannot recognise correctly the size of my sd card. It always shows 0.0 GB. The sd card (16GB micro sd hc class 1) works fine with all other devices and I formated it just before that.


  Plex server
Posted by: abrmx - 08-16-2017, 03:48 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PINE A64(+) - Replies (3)

Hello

I succesfully mount a Plex media Server on a PineA64

I use this instructions:

Code:
# Run add the ARMHF architecture to the Debian Packages that can be installed here
sudo dpkg --add-architecture armhf
# Make sure that we install the correct version of the arm package
echo "deb [arch=armhf] https://dev2day.de/pms/ jessie main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pms.list
# Update the package lists
sudo apt-get update
# Install the media server and all the dependencies
sudo apt-get install binutils:armhf plexmediaserver-installer -y

good luck!


  Configure the touchpad
Posted by: leszek - 08-16-2017, 02:43 PM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook - Replies (6)

I like to configure the touchpad to be able to use two finger tap for middle click and three finger tap for right click.

So far I was only able to switch 2 finger tap from right click to middle click with

Code:
xinput set-button-map 8 1 3 2 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13

Though that does disable the right click for me. Tapping with 3 fingers sends an s keypress event.
Clicking on the far bottom right produces a 3 keypress.

Setting it back to the default
Code:
xinput set-button-map 8 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13

Makes right click working again with two finger tap and right bottom corner click.
Three finger tap however still send an s keypress.


  Mute speakers when headset is plugged in
Posted by: leszek - 08-16-2017, 02:25 PM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook - Replies (4)

Somehow when I plug in a headset sound is played through it but the speakers don't mute and still play sound still.
I like to have the behavior to mute the speakers if I plug in my headphones or headset.
I guess I  need to enable some switch in alsamixer to make it work.


  Make Microphones work
Posted by: leszek - 08-16-2017, 02:22 PM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook - Replies (2)

I like to test the microphones. Though they seem to be disabled by default and not used by default for capturing with arecord or audacity.
What settings in [b]alsamixer[b] do I need to set to be able to record with both microphones?
I am a little bit overwhelmed by all the mixers I and settings I can adjust there.
