  EMMC
Posted by: adamjedgar - 02-23-2017, 10:33 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PINE A64(+) - Replies (6)

I have read that running from an EMMC module is faster than micro SD Card. Is this true?

If so, is it worth the additional money on Pine A64 2GB? (will it improve performance once system is booted up and in Remix OS?)

Any particular specs i need to consider before purchasing an EMMC module for pine64?


  Where is the pine64 official source code
Posted by: MikeGao - 02-23-2017, 08:05 PM - Forum: Android on Pine A64(+) - No Replies

Is there PINE64 official source code repository for android and its kernel?
I only see some personal github address for android 6/7.
Please give the help.
Thank in advance!


  Usb and ethernet ports
Posted by: adamjedgar - 02-23-2017, 03:05 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PINE A64(+) - Replies (2)

Will the pine 64 function with

1  ethernet port removed off the board
2 remove double usb and replace it with a single one
        -could the standard USB be exchanged for another micro USB

Just wondering, for the eMMC, is this eMMC module from odroid compatible with the SoPine baseboard?

Video Linux gkrellm launch
Posted by: jhawk - 02-22-2017, 10:47 PM - Forum: Linux on Pine A64(+) - Replies (1)

I like to use Gkrellm2 on linux Desktop, the one plugin I use the most is gkrellmlaunch, it allows me to get everything done from a simple light weight interface. However, it is never included in distributions, I will attach same for access.

Here is a little script I fire from launch.

Code:
#!/bin/bash
#
# updater designed to keep system at latest state & clean
#
echo 'The following will be completed, Autoremove will require response.'
echo
echo 'Update, Upgrade, Dist-Upgrade, Autoremove and Clean'
echo
read -n1 -r -p "Press SPACE to continue or Ctrl+C to exit ... " key
echo
if [ "$key" = '' ]; then
   echo "Continuing ..."
fi
echo
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade && sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade && sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get clean
echo 'Have a nice day!'


  Slim line Pine Board
Posted by: adamjedgar - 02-22-2017, 09:58 PM - Forum: General Discussion on PINE A64(+) - No Replies

What are the chances of Pine developing a much thinner board?

ie get rid of the double row full size USB hub and ethernet, as well as swapping the pin slots for ones with 90 degree facing ones?

The current board is incredibly thick when put inside a case...particularly when combined with touchscreen. This kind of configuration would want to replicate a relatively thin tablet configuration would it not?


  FreeBSD
Posted by: ernie - 02-22-2017, 09:13 PM - Forum: Linux on Pine A64(+) - No Replies

Sorry, I am new to the forum, so I am starting this thread in the Linux section as I couldn't find a section for other operating systems.

I am running FreeBSD on a Pine 64 A+ 2GB board.
The image I am using is:

http://download.raspbsd.org/FreeBSD-aarc...06M.img.gz

It's designed to run headless, no HDMI yet.
I set it up using a serial FTDI converter hooked up to pins 7,8,9 of the Exp connector.

Then I added the FreeBSD 11 packages repo as per these instructions for a Pi3

http://www.raspbsd.org/raspberrypi.html

That all worked well, everything is running except on the serial console and in dmesg, I am getting spurious interrupts on irq 27 which I think is the SD card controller.

 gic0: Spurious interrupt detected: last irq: 27 on CPU1
 gic0: Spurious interrupt detected: last irq: 27 on CPU3

The messages only seem to occur when the SD card is being accessed. I tried a high speed SDHI card and it made no difference, the board is being powered off a 5A USB supply and drawing only about 100mA when the SD card is being accessed, so it doesn't seem to be a power issue.

Is anyone else running FreeBSD and getting the same spurious interrupts?
