| Understanding Kernel Choice |

Dear All,
apologies for the basic sounding question. Do we have a choice in the kernel we use? As far as I can tell, the current version of the linux kernel I am using is an ayufan modified version of Allwinner's BSP. Is this similar to Sunxi's current kernel and does one version have benefits over the other?
Many thanks for our help.

| Booting from eMMC with SD inserted? |

Hi all,
Just a (hopefully) quick question - I have Ubuntu MATE installed to the eMMC and I have a 32Gb SD card installed for extra storage. If I try to boot up with the SD inserted, the boot process stalls at a blank screen (no bootup logo etc). It will only continue to boot into eMMC if I remove the SD card.
This is a bit of a pain in the arse.
I know that the PB looks at the SD first, but I assumed that if it didn't find what it needed to boot - it would failover to the next option of the eMMC. Is there anything I can do to get this to work how I would like?
M.

Thread to collect iozone performance tests of the rock64.
When posting a report, please list your board (1G/2G/4G), OS type and version (Xenial/0.2.5), hardware tested (make/model), and the file system it has (ext4/fat32/ntfs/etc). And don't forget to use code tags so the formatting doesn't stuff up 
If you don't have the iozone package installed yet: sudo apt install iozone3
Set the CPU governor to performance (as root, i.e. sudo -i first or pipe through sudo tee):
echo performance >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
Mount your drive, change to the mount point, and run the below to run your tests:
iozone -e -I -a -s 100M -r 4k -r 16k -r 512k -r 1024k -r 16384k -i 0 -i 1 -i 2

Hello all,
Sorry if i already missed the posting but I have been trying to change the username in the terminal from somthing other than pine64@pinebook. I have changed my name on login but in the terminal still keep the old username. I also tried using:
Code: usermod -l newname pine64
and i get the message:
Code: usermod: user pine64 is currently used by process 941
The number at the end changes but I get the message everytime I have tried.
Is is possible to make this modification?
Thank you,
Coyote

Maybe to share for others that want to have this installed and find that it is hard to find the right sources for the pine64
influxdb installation
The standard download page does not show the right pine packages
use the following
Code: curl -sL https://repos.influxdata.com/influxdb.key | sudo apt-key add -
sudo source /etc/lsb-release
echo "deb https://repos.influxdata.com/${DISTRIB_ID,,} ${DISTRIB_CODENAME} stable" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/influxdb.list
After that simply install with
Code: sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install influxdb
Grafana Installation
mainly coming from https://github.com/fg2it/grafana-on-raspberry/wiki
To get it working on the pine use the rpi2/rpi3 package.
You can install it by hand accoring to the instructions in the wiki.
If you want to keep it up2date you best use the apt installation.
Code: sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https curl
curl https://bintray.com/user/downloadSubjectPublicKey?username=bintray | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb [arch=armhf] https://dl.bintray.com/fg2it/deb jessie main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/grafana.list
the key difference here with the standard instructions is:
deb [arch=armhf] https://dl.bintray.com/fg2it/deb jessie main
Once done you can simply install
Code: sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install grafana
Hope this helps you

Hi All,
happy new owner of a 14'' Pinebook. So far, everything is going swimmingly. Only bugbear: I am trying to switch from MATE to LXDE. I have successfully installed LXDE via apt-get, but for some reason, the log-in screen won't give me LXDE as a choice of sessions, only MATE. Any ideas how to remedy this?
Otherwise, lovely machine.
