Is it possible to run Kubuntu on the Pine64?I really want to use KDE desktop on my Pine64.

Hi folks.
Well, I got some issues trying to make my Pine64 works. I have made an Ubuntu boot at my Pine64 and after few seconds using the OS, I just lost my signal. After that, I tried again, but now It does not work, after LogIn, Signal gone.
Also, I would say that the same happend with some Android and RemixOS Image, I mean, runned great at first time, but, after 10 or 60 seconds I just lost my signal. I even have tried using a LCD Image (android-ver5.1.1-lcd-version-20160603-pine64-phoenixCard) burned with PhoenixCard_V310_20130618 at Setup Module at my LG Monitor Flatron W2252tq and using a 1024x resolution and I got no signal, none at all.

Can someone help me?

Here's some information:
-I'm using a LG lcd 42LD460;
-HDMI without any adapter;
-DD imagem xubuntu-xenial-mate-20161215-longsleep-pine64-8GB burned with Win32DiskImager;
-MicroSDCard Class 10, 16GB;
-PINE A64+ 2GB board;
-WIFI 802.11BGN/BLUETOOTH 4.0 MODULE;
-PSU 5V 2A;

I'm interested in doing some stuff with OpenCL. According to this ARM Community post and ARM Developer
full OpenCL is only supported on Mali-T600 and newer chips. I can't find anything about partial support on the 400 line. Anybody here know more about this or is my Google-fu just weak?

Hi,

I am using Kicad for my all electronic designs, and most of the time creating spesific components takes so much of my time. When I was surfing I found this tool. It seems very useful. I just want to share it with you. Seems really worth it.

Hi All,

I have a Pine64 with ZWave module, installed domotizc on it.

I installed open zwave for domoticz.
For it to work, it was needed to create a symlink from /dev/ttyACM0 -> /dev/ttyS2 as domoticz expects to find the open zwave module on /dev/ttyACM0

Now I also have a RFlink, which is connected to the serial port.
And guess what, when I remove the device and symlink, then I see the RFlink getting created as /dev/ttyACM0

Same way, if I keep the symlink, and connect the RFlink, in the log of domoticz I see it complaining about the ZWave device not properly reponding.

I.e. when I connect the RFLink, it will come as /dev/ttyACM0 even if there is already such a device (ore a symlink to it)

Any ideas how to solve it?

I have the pine64 2gb board with the touch LCD running armbian. everything with the LCD and touchscreen works. I am working on trying to get the display manager to work. When you boot it up, it does the autologin to the desktop for the user created on first run. Armbian uses the nodm (no display manager) by default. I removed that and installed lightdm as suggested on the getting started section on the armbian site. After rebooting I am presented with terminal only. I can login as what ever user I want and then run startx to get to the desktop but I still can't log out, or switch users or at any point get presented with a graphical login screen. If I remove lightdm and reinstall nodm it goes back to doing the autologin to the desktop.

Any wise folks run into this before?
