Are there any plans to sell eMMC cards in the Pine64 store for the SOPINE A64?

Hi,

I'm running Ubuntu 16.04 (Linux pine64 3.10.104-2-pine64-longsleep) for a few days on my Pine64 2GB. What I notice is that after a reboot DNS works fine, but after sometime DNS is no longer able to resolve. 

When DNS fails I get a message like:

nslookup www.google.com
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

However, if I reboot the Pine64 DNS works like a charm. 

I've got a fixed IP defined in /etc/network/interfaces.d/eth0
auto eth0
#iface eth0 inet dhcp
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.158
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.1
dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8


Which works because ifconfig shows the following:

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 4a:7c:01:2a:0d:57
          inet addr:192.168.1.158  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::487c:1ff:fe2a:d57/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:172911 errors:0 dropped:9 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:84150 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:28673200 (28.6 MB)  TX bytes:26435938 (26.4 MB)
          Interrupt:114


ip route shows the following:
default via 192.168.1.1 dev eth0 onlink
192.168.1.0/24 dev eth0  proto kernel  scope link  src 192.168.1.158

Does anybody have a suggestion where I should look for the rootcause/solution?

Nice price for great memory.

I have been trying to do an OTA update on 2016071801 and have not found a way to successfully do it. Does anyone have any tips? When I check update, it states that it is up to date. I havent found a working console to apt-get or similar.

Hello everyone,

i seem to be having a problem with the Ubuntu xenial mate os where i cant resize the monitor in settings, as it dosn't show any of the bars at the top.
I was wondering how i could fix this issue, sorry if I am posting in the wrong sub-forum, I am new.

Hi,

I have a board running Armbian and I was wondering how I could get an application to start up in full screen after the board boots? It is a GTK app. 

Thanks!

Hello, I'm trying to create a media application using Windows IoT, and I started with a Raspberry Pi, but unfortunately it doesn't support any hardware acceleration, so video display was unbearably slow.  Does the Windows IoT image for the Pine64 support any hardware acceleration?  I was looking into the documentation for the Mali400MP2, and it looks like it would be just as difficult to get DirectX working on this chipset as it would on the RPi, but perhaps AllWinner worked more with Microsoft to get things working.  Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Hi ..last time i tried to post this idea i got banned due to a misunderstanding.

I had thought it would be cool for so.someone to deaign a pc expansion plate that attaches to a pine64.

It already has 4 holes in each corner.. Screw an aluminum plate to those and use your old pc case as a place to stack em. The pc power supply can act as a power for all pine64.

I am sure a simple design exposing the ethernet side would be sufficient. Send your design to a company to punch out the plate and sell em?

Anyway.. I hope that description came through clear enough.

I posted a picture of expansion cards with detachable plates but i think that got me banned last time.

Just do a google image search for expansion cards anf youll find what i am talking about.

What a good reason to resurrect and old case for a new purpose!

Hello. I used the Pine64 (2GB) with android on the 64 GB SD card provided last year with Pine's provided LCD panel without trouble. Then I didn't boot it for months, waiting for a project to develop.
I tried yesterday to boot it, but without success. The red led lights up for a pair a second, then switch off. I noticed that without SD the led stays on.

I decided to re-flash Android 6.0.1 on my Mac (using either dd on terminal, or Etcher) with three 16GB and 64GB cards. But nothing happens. The led lights up for a pair of seconds and then switch of, with no boot, nor display on the LCD. Any idea of what is going on?

Thanks

i been playen around with my pine64 and have had several ideas, https://1drv.ms/f/s!ArGQ2C9w7YIYgwSmusbQpqulCcB0
