  High speed I/O
Posted by: richw42 - 01-13-2017, 12:23 PM - Forum: POT modules - Replies (3)

I would like to design a POT for the PINE64 that requires a lot of I/O. For example, I would like to design a board that has 4 stereo (or even 8) channels of high-quality audio output. What resources of the PINE64[+] would be appropriate for this endeavor? Can some of the existing interfaces (like display or camera) be re-purposed, and is there information available about how to do this?

  A dedicated forum for guides and tutorials?

Just as a suggestion, I was thinking we should have a dedicated forum or subforum for guides and tutorials related to the PINE64.


  PINE64 connected to Arduino over I2C
Posted by: shockr - 01-13-2017, 02:21 AM - Forum: General Discussion on PINE A64(+) - Replies (2)

Hey folks,

As one of the steps in my ongoing PINE64 robot project, I wrote a couple of blog posts that deal with connecting the Pine and an Arduino Mega over the I2C bus. My Pine is the 1GB version running longsleep's Ubuntu image.

The first post covers the the pin connection and the Arduino sketch.

The second post explains the C and C# code for controlling the Arduino from the Pine.

  pppoe with CenturyLink?
Posted by: alg_42 - 01-12-2017, 11:24 AM - Forum: Ubuntu - No Replies

Has anyone been able to configure there Pine64 to do the pppoe connection when your DSL modem is in transparent bridging mode?

I've finally gotten time to start playing with my board and last night I attempted to have the Pine64 handle the DSL connection with the pppoeconf script.  It found the DSL connection and asked for my credentials which I put in.  After it ran, I did get an error about the ppp module not loading and to do a mknod to create I think /dev/ppp .  I did that and then a reboot.  At that point I was unable to connect to the board through ssh.  It was late so I didn't hookup a monitor or keyboard, but the ppp module error has me concerned.

For the network, I have a USB ethernet dongle which is now hooked up to the DSL modem.  The onboard NIC is running to a 5 port ToughSwitch.


  Karaoke! [maybe]
Posted by: Dmoreno - 01-12-2017, 03:47 AM - Forum: Pine A64 Projects, Ideas and Tutorials - Replies (3)

Rusting in one corner, at last i find some time to play with my PINE64, but the idea of making a retro-console was discarted. With the new release of debian, i begin to think to put Ultrastar in the board.

First steps:

- Put the keyboard in my language (spanish)

Code:
$ dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration
$ reboot

- Install Vim (is what i use in my work)
Code:
$ sudo -i
$ apt-get install vim

- Avoid the login page
Code:
$ apt-get install gnome-system-tools




The real instalation of Ultrastar-Deluxe

- Install some require libraries
Code:
$ apt-get update && apt-get install git fpc libsdl2-dev libsdl2-image-dev libsdl2-image-2.0-0 libsdl2-2.0-0 libsdl2-mixer-2.0-0 libsdl2-mixer-dev libsdl2-net-2.0-0 libsdl2-net-dev libsdl2-ttf-2.0-0 libsdl2-ttf-dev libsdl2-gfx-1.0-0 libsdl2-gfx-dev ffmpeg libavdevice-dev libsqlite3-0 libsqlite3-dev libpcre3 libpcre3-dev ttf-dejavu ttf-freefont portaudio19-dev lua5.1-dev libpng16-16 libopencv-highgui-dev libprojectm-dev

- Get the code
Code:
$ git clone https://github.com/UltraStar-Deluxe/USDX
- Configure the program
Code:
$ cd USDX
$ ./configure

The program says he need Pascal to work, and in Synaptic not seems to help me. Any try of install any package of pascal return me a beautiful message of error.
So i try by console
Code:
$ apt-get install fpc

It not seems to work, so i try a new version
Code:
$ apt-get install fpc-3.0.0


At this point is where i start to cry like a child, because i receive a lot of warning of dependencies....  

I let this to my tomorrow Me


  HDMI Color Inverted on TV
Posted by: Apicalis - 01-12-2017, 01:57 AM - Forum: Android on Pine A64(+) - Replies (2)

Hello everyone,

my TV is the Philips 42PFL8404 which i bought ~6-7 years ago. Since then i had the same issue with some devices which didn't really bother my because i rarely used them on my TV

The problem is that every now and then (no real trigger) the screen gets inverted colors. Doesn't matter if a movie is running or it's a picture on the screen without any movement.
This happened to some devices like my laptop, a playstation and my PC once when i had another GFX card installed. So the Problem is definetly the TV not the Pine.

Why am i talking about it then on this forum???

Because there is a Fix that can be used on Radean GFX Cards. There u can go to the ATI Driver Settings and set "PC-Standard-Pixelformat RGB 4:4:4 (full RGB)" to fix this issue. And i wanted to ask if there is anything similar that can be done on the Pine64 on Linux oder Android

It's really terrible that my Pine64 finally runs smoothly with Ayufans Android image but i can't use it on my TV :/


Thanks in advance


  Midori and Chromium (52) Cannot open display
Posted by: DuMees - 01-11-2017, 08:45 AM - Forum: Debian - Replies (3)

Hi All,

First of all, thanks for taking the time to read my issue. I don't have a lot of experience with Debian (some, as I develop in PHP and have setup a PHP server before on Debian).

I have debian installed (pine64-image-debianbase-310102bsp-2) as I'm building big photo screen for in my house. Remix OS takes too long to startup and the program I've written links to my Synology and displays my pictures (and I've written an Android app for my phone to take control over the photo screen). I've developped this over the webbrowser and it works perfectly on any browser.

So I have gotten Debian up and running, Chromium (52) and Midori installed, however when I fire one of them up I get the message: Midori: Cannot open display and with Chromium: Eror: Browser_main _loop.cc(283)] Gtk: Cannot open display:

I've connected the Pine64 (2GB) via HDMI to a screen (Acer computer screen) and login directly on Debian (not over SSH or via a client).

Anyone experienced a simular issue?

Thanks for any help.
