Hi

i have 2 x pine64 board.

i assembly package (board, case and LCD) and trying install openhab. i build board and lcd with forum and video but lcd not working (hdmi is working).

i added photos for assembly.

how can i be sure that the LCD works?

regards.

Hi, I'm a newbie to SBC. I have a 512MB model, that I would like use to stream audio to the internet (darkice + caster.fm).  I've read the OS page in the wiki, the only OS there suitable for the 512MB board is Debian. Which has a gui (desktop environment), which I really don't want or need. 

I'm much more comfortable with Ubuntu (actually CentOS, and Ubuntu is closer to Cent than Debian is), but it says Ubuntu won't run on the 512MB boards.  I'm guessing that if ran Ubuntu, it would be slow and laggy, but then if I uninstalled the de it would be ok?  But there might be other things wrong then, like the audio would be setup for a de, not command line, it might make things a little harder.  It seems there is no "official" (recommended) command line OS?

I see lots of references to custom builds in the forums, like "get bob's Ubuntu core here..." but I don't feel great about that idea... I'd like something a little more mainstream. I found one that sounded like it would work ok, but the download link was a 404.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

I need USB-Debugging. It's enabled in Developer Options but the damned Pine isn't even recognized by my Win7 Computer as an USB-Device.   None of the two USB-Ports are recognized. I need to debug a Webradio App i did. It works on every Smartphone, but on the Pine it always shows Error MEDIA_ERROR_UNKNOWN when it trys to open the Stream. Why is this Issue not fixed???

Hi all.  When I attempt to install synergy (allows use of one keyboard and mouse between pc's) I get the below error. Any ideas on how to address this?

Using Debian Mate image here.




The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 synergy : Depends: libqt4-network (>= 4:4.5.3) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

I plan to create a phone with the Pine64 is there anyway I can support a sim card in this build as i really want to give this the full capability of a phone and more features if anybody can give me a idea on how to that will be a great help thanks

This looks like a good place to ask this.  Anybody know JACK/pine64+ 2G?  I envision a two board cluster, one 2G for UI, one 512M --- for audio processing, and some professional audio software.  Touch screen, usb midi, class d pre-amp, and/or digital audio feed to a dsp.  The idea is to devastate the old market with new, accessible kit.  

I'm still noobing on the whole build process, working at getting a stable workstation from which to further develop.  Many of you are waaay ahead of me on that, so I'm just asking.

If this is better as a new post, say so, and I'll do that too.

Just want to take a moment to thank all those who helped me get it up and running. One more question. Using the Android 5.1 LCD version wonder if it will also drive the HDMI port?
Thanks again. Happy dancer here.

4 months ago I did an unboxing of the pine 64. As promised, I have tested it out and made my personal opinion after 1000h of load, and non stop use (24/7). Its ON since the day arrived home.


You have find the complete review here.

Just to put something here:

Conclusion

For being the first model of the company, I would say from my personal experience that, the Pine 64 is solid. Great price, for great performance. It has given me all I asked and never failed to do a task. It’s community is still growing and expanding, so don’t expect to find information as easy as you would do for a raspberry pi.

Is more than I expected, I totally recommend it, if you are looking for a small computer with great performance.

i put an android 5.1 dd image,
dd bs=4M if=/home/dkryder/Downloads/pine64/pine64-lollipop-beta-2-lcd-dd-8.img of=/dev/mmcblk0
it boots and runs fine. i would like to recover the unused space and add to the image. using gparted i get an error message about overlapping partitions. fdisk gives me this,
 sudo fdisk -l /dev/mmcblk0

Partition table entries are not in disk order

i can see what i think might be the problem but having never been in the situation i'm not sure what to do.  i found this page,
http://gparted.org/h2-fix-msdos-pt.php#o...partitions
i could use some help in what changes i need to make. thanks
