Hello everyone,

  I was compiling OpenWRT today for one SoC and I notice that OpenWRT is supporting ARMv8 / arm64 for Allwinner.
  I compiled it for testing in Pine64, but the problem is the u-boot. Even reading longsleep post, I'm not sure if I did the right thing.

 So, anyone already make anything about OpenWRT (or tired) for pine64?


Thanks in advance.

Hi all,
I need to assemble a simple videoconference station based on Skype.

Is Pine64 a possible solution?

Can I use a usb camera (logitech)?
Can I add a remote to control the station?

Thanks in advance for your answer.
best regards.

Any support for Plex Home Theater on any distro?

Ran into every error posted in this forum. Though nothing has been resolved and forum is quiet.

I'm somewhat familiar with the basic cmake/make/make install recipe for compiling code. The issue is that this usually results in code compiled for the architecture of the host machine (which for me is an Intel Core i7 / x86_64). Compiling code on this machine is lightspeed faster than compiling directly on the Pine.

Are there (I'm sure there are) flags/switches/make-file changes I can make/use when compiling on my desktop so that the resulting binaries will work on the Pine?

I tried this just now "cmake . -DCFLAGS='-maarch64' -DCXXFLAGS='maarch64'" but I didn't see any messages about the architecture changing. I'm waiting for the compile to finish.

Thanks!

I have tried many ways but can not get the camera to fit into the playbox. Any pics/videos?

How will the selection of boot source be handled on the SOPINE64? I do not see a switch or jumper on the baseboard or module board to switch between a micro SD card and a eMMC card.

Just purchased a pine64+.

Pine works no problem and i can plug hdmi computer monitor into the board and it runs beautifully, however the 7" LCD is a no go.

I am not using the standard pine power supply. I have plugged LCD into a samsung one ( 5V 2A). Any ideas?


EDIT...ah just saw the email from tech support. Apparently Remix does not support the 7" LCD touchscreen?

Has anyone gopt any workarounds other than to change OS?

anyone know it can play how long ?
