Ive looked around but im not seeing where the options are for me to boot to terminal instead of the gui desktop. Id like to be able to startx into the desktop on occasion but I only use it in terminal most of the time so the desktop isnt needed all the time.
I tried the grub option but Grub doesnt exist with this image so thats no help.
(12-18-2016, 11:56 AM)longsleep Wrote: I decided to roll a new Ubuntu Xenial image which is not using the proposed repository. Starting from 20161218-1, Xenial images now use the latest released rootfs to improve repository compatibility. Eg. this makes it possible again, to install the mate desktop environment (whose dependencies are broken when using the proposed repo like before).
Get 20161218-1 from https://www.stdin.xyz/downloads/people/l...es/ubuntu/
As always, for a list of changes and full details see the first post in this thread.
this is my image at current, using the xfce desktop. ive got ssh installed and im fully updated. I just cant figure out how to change the boot settings.

Hi, I'm a new member of this forum.
I joined to this forum because I want to buy a Pine a64 (2 GB RAM), but I'm not sure if I must also buy a power supply for Pine a64. My question is: I have many power supplies from old smartphones that end with microUSB-B, can this type of power supply works on a Pine a64 like the one I want to buy?
Thanks for helping.

for some reason i have an issue with lacking power to boot one of my boards. if i use the micro usb power source i don't have enough power to complete a boot, after it reaches a point the boot sequence loops. if i use a power supply through the euler pins, same situation, boot loop after a certain point in the sequence. however, if i use a power source through both the micro usb & euler pins at same time the boot is always successful. after boot i can disconnect one or the other and the board runs fine. i have been doing this for about 3 weeks now without any obvious damage. but i thought i'd mention it to the group and see what feedback i get. i'm mostly interested in if i will eventually burn up the board someway but i'd also like thoughts on just why this is working thanks.

AssistantPine Developement
I have been working roughly 80 hours a week, so i have had a lack of time to focus on bigger projects, aka TV64 and or ChromiumOS, but i couldn't sleep last night, probably to much coffee. but i had a good idea of something id like work with the pine community on, due to time issues on my part i will need some help or assistance for this, and it is in the very basic, i have an idea, and a very basic blueprint on a plan of action. here is the idea. In the last 4 or 5 years, the virtual assistant has grown to be very powerful, amazon,google, apple and windows all have there's. Where is the Pure Linux one? and even better answer, where is the pine one? That is what i want to try to get started, my base idea, is to work off some of the work that's all ready been done in the Linux world. SemiCode OS, is a development based Ubuntu distribution, they have done some great work with what they call Sarah. you can check it out here https://github.com/semicode-ltd/sarah and of course with amazon releasing the source code of Alexa for Linux there is promise for this idea.
Mission Statement for this Project
I want to build a small base distribution for the pine64, that then could act as a hub or a standalone unit, loaded with the AI, then this main unit could then be used to manage any other units on the same network, basically a home-kit type idea. So step one would be to strip Ubuntu down and build around with Sarah, then work with code for touch screen's etc.I will have time this Sunday to work on this idea, and some more outlining on how this can work, right now I am curious, if anyone else thinks this would be a worth idea. Also any idea's that would be worthwhile to look into surrounding this idea would be awesome.

Follow the progress at Trello
Update 1/23/2017
After reaching out to SemiCode OS I have been contacted by Mohamed Saif Eldeen, the CEO and founder of SemiCode OS, We are going to be working together on some features of Sarah. A full port of SemiCode OS may be in work as well.

Hey guys,
I'm trying to add a USB mic to my Linux install but it appears that it is not being detected. I am connecting via VNC and SSH. Any thoughts on this?
Here is what the output of cat /proc/asound/cards shows:
Code: 0 [DeviceEcho058 ]: USB-Audio - USB PnP Device(Echo-058)
USB PnP Device(Echo-058) at usb-sunxi-ohci-1, full speed
1 [sndhdmi ]: sndhdmi - sndhdmi
sndhdmi
