The additional cpu performance and 4Gb of ram would be extremely useful in a module form factor.

Is creating a module for this cpu / ram a thought at all?

Hi All,
I registered here to suggest Fedora as a potential distro for whomever makes images for the Rock64.  I don't have the skills to create my own ARM images from scratch for new boards, but I'm really hoping that one appears for Fedora 25+

Fedora does a great job of publishing generalized images for the ARM architecture here:  https://arm.fedoraproject.org/

Looking forward to 4GB of RAM on a SoC!

At present my pine64 2gb board is working a treat for a nice intranet, cloud and plex media server. The only gripe I have is .avi files can't be played via the pine to my firetv stick as it hasn't the oomph to transcode on the fly. I am looking for something I can load onto the pine to run on schedule to convert .avi files to mp4 etc to be playable.

Does anyone know of anything and have experience with said thing?

Hi every body
Does any one designed any custom board based on the PINE64 schematic so far? any source to buy RK3368?

Thank you

I received my pinebook two weeks ago. But my pinebook LCD was cracked. I opened a ticket with support immediately. It has been 14 days but, there is no response. Is anyone else sucessfull with getting help with their pinebook defects so far?

Second release of Anarsoul's Arch with mainline kernel for A64 devices can be found here 


Here's Archlinux image for Pinebook (and Pine64, SOPINE - but beware - these are not tested, I tested only Pinebook image)

Hi,

I am a happy user of of an A64+ that is serving as a Linux server in my basement, and it has worked flawlessly with Armbian and Debian before that.

Anyway, Owncloud is a bit slow on the Pine and I am considering upgrading to a Rock64. Does anyone have a sense of how the performance of the 4GB board would compare to my 2GB A64? As an added question, any sense of how the Rock64 would compare to a RPi 3 performance wise focused on the Linux server use case?

Thank you!

Hello guys.

I'm looking for the best media center for my pinebook to watch IPTV

Kodi in Ubuntu Mate ? I've tested. So slow, so sad ! I know, some threads talk about this default.

VLC in Ubuntu Mate, yes, it's ok, but not so glam isn'it ?

Kodi on Android 6.01,   so slow too

GPS SMART IPTV on Android 6.01, it's a good solution. But, it's cost 2$ without publicities.

Have you another idea ? rather than in Ubuntu.

Thanks for your ideas.

Here have been using Ubuntu and Mono since early days of the Pine64.

Somewhere during updates mono updated itself to version 4.8.x.

It will no longer update relating to using an arm 64 bit CPU.

I want to edit the current repo for mono and everytime I do this it updates itself to this repo:

mono-xamarin.list

deb http://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian wheezy main
deb http://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian deb http://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian wheezy main
deb http://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian wheezy-apache24-compat main

In wheezy-apache24-compat main there is are no updates for 64bit ARM CPU mono versions.

Reading package lists... Done                     
N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/binary-arm64/Packages' as repository 'http://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian wheezy-apache24-compat InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'arm64'

Please tell me an easy way to lock in a version of mono that works with current Ubuntu Pine64 build?

I was just starting a manual build but will defer to waiting for an answer to my dilemma.
