  Xenial Mate 0.7.5-88 - LCD off after resume
Posted by: nicole.f - 07-21-2017, 05:09 PM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook - Replies (4)

Hi,
just tried the Xenial Mate release 0.7.4-86 and 0.7.5-88. Both seem to work mostly fine except for two issues.

If sunxi-drm is enabled then suspend (to RAM) does not work anymore, the device does not fully go to sleep and never resumes.


If sunxi-drm is not enabled then suspend works, also resume mostly seems to work but the LCD stays off (black) and I do not know any way to re-enable it.


Release 0.6.2-77 does properly suspend and resume.

Cheers

  Pinebook picky with microSD cards?
Posted by: nicole.f - 07-21-2017, 09:22 AM - Forum: Pinebook Hardware and Accessories - Replies (2)

Hi,
I don't know if this is a hardware issue with my Pinebook 11.6" or a general issue... but mine is very picky about the microSD cards it works with. I tried quite a bunch and found only one working flawlessly by now. All others sooner or later result in kernel error reports of some sort of timeout or other errors, like:

...
data error sending stop command
send stop command failed
mmcblk0: timed out sending r/w command, card status 0x400900
...


Does this happen to other users too?


Is there a know workaround?

Cheers

  Ethernet issue
Posted by: Matthew - 07-21-2017, 06:23 AM - Forum: Debian - Replies (4)

Hello,

Installed the latest pine64-image-debianmate-310102bsp-2.img, it flashed fine, running on a Pine64 2GB board, using the Wi-Fi / BT module. 

When Debian starts up, the Eth0 connection says connected, and the negotiation icon on top right stays on and moving, thing is, i don't even have an Ethernet cable plugged in and it says "Connected"? I have to disconnect the connection before it stops. When I plug an Ethernet cable in, it will not initiate DHCP, or if i insert static, there is just no connection. 

I even inserted the SD into another Pine64 board, same result. Eth0 just won't work, Wi-FI works fine though. Any suggestions? 

p.s I did run the scripts to update etc...


  Project DAW Platform: Fully capable Audio Production, Recording Station
Posted by: speedro86 - 07-21-2017, 04:27 AM - Forum: Pine A64 Projects, Ideas and Tutorials - Replies (4)

Since I ordered my Pine64+, my goal has been to use it as a base for a small, portable full Audio Production Station. I am planning on running a DAW with midi input, audio in/out, full functioning audio interface integration, with the ability to sync up with my work studio. This is in the early stages, but I believe it will be simple to implement. MORE TO COME!!!!

Lightbulb Pinebook SDIO gpio control using SD card slot blog post
Posted by: MarkHaysHarris777 - 07-20-2017, 04:56 PM - Forum: Pinebook Hardware and Accessories - Replies (15)

   

This is my first experiment with bringing some of the A64 gpio mux lines to the outside via the SD card slot;  SDIO.  These are data lines D0-D3, CMD, CLK, VDD, & VSS.  The lines are gpio160 - gpio166;  PF0 - PF6.

The pic above is the 48cm ribbon cable that extends the SD micro slot to a full size card adapter;  this ribbon is useful in itself;  but I plan to modify it for pin access on a solderable bread-board.

         

These two shots are the modified ribbon cable;  this was actually easier than I expected.  The cable will extend under the notebook.

         

The two shots above show the finished cable running;  I have the green and red LED(s) initially connected to CMD and CLK.  These are pulsing at regular 3/4 second intervals (or so).  The gpio(s) are not useful in this state;  next I need to hack the dts and make sure that the pin function register has '0' s.

  Can I use Citrix receiver on Pinebook?
Posted by: eishi - 07-19-2017, 09:35 PM - Forum: Linux on Pinebook - Replies (1)

I want to use Citrix receiver,but we can do to download it
that made by ARM HF and ARM LF architecture on Citrix web site.
But ARM HF and ARM LF are diffarent from ARM64  architecture.
Can Pinebook run a software made by ARM HF or ARM LF architecture?
Or is there any other good way?


  [Problem] help find R110~R113 resistors on board to LCD Rotation 180deg
Posted by: msmmbl - 07-19-2017, 08:24 PM - Forum: LCD and Touch Panel - Replies (2)

I have an old MIPI LCD panel. It works fine with pine64 2GB version. I want to rotate the screen 180deg. I checked the board schematic and found the MIPI L/R Pin is 0, U/D is 1, which means LCD is mirrored and upside down.

       

So, I want to make L/D pin 1, U/D pin 0, which means LCD is in default direction according to the datasheet. Move the resistor R113 to R112, R111 to R110. I have two problems:

1. Where is the R110 to R113 on board?
2. The resistors are very tiny and it is difficult to move them. I am using Android 6. Is this have other way to rotate screen 180deg without rotate the touch panel?


  Question on audio output
Posted by: cootcraig - 07-19-2017, 07:59 AM - Forum: General Discussion on Pinebook - Replies (6)

I just received my pinebook and I'm enjoying getting used to it, so far I'm using the installed Ubuntu/Mate system.

There are two aspects of the audio output that I wonder about.

1) low volume
2) speakers stay on when I plug in headphones.

The volume function buttons are working, but the highest volume is not loud enough

Hi
How can we add a battery and a charging circuit on Rock64 ?
And can rock64 display the battery status on the android 7.1 image ?
Thanks
