I sent an email requesting an RMA number for a bad board on 8/8. I got a reply from Van requesting my email id and then ...... nothing.
The details are that I have two boards, one works with the LCD screen and one doesn't. I've tried re-seating connectors, and used the same SD card.
Why is response so slow....... ?
How can I get a board that works?

With joy I received the PINE64 Media.
But with surprise I discovered that the SD card with OS and media software is missing, allthough the brag about increasing the size of it. I haven't received any SD card, just an empty SD box and adapter.
I have asked for a new SD card with the proper software without ANY confirmation, result or whatsoever.
I have emailed on several addresses including support and shipping, but nobody seems to respond. Probably all busy with the shipments. But please take time to at least respond to the emails which are sent weeks ago.
For several weeks I'm staring to a beautiful PINE64 as a brick without any software...
I hope to start a support conversation by this forum now...

| Standard Mounting Standoffs from the Hardware Store |

In the pic above we're looking at a standard machine bolt 3Mx30.
... these bolts are readily available from any local hardware carrier , and are especially handy as desk stand-offs ( without enclosure ) or they may also be used to 'hang' the board from the top case bezel of an ABS plastic box like the Radio Shack enclosure discussed earlier this week.
These are 3M machine bolts; which means they just fit the holes in the Pine board. I have chosen 30mm posts here, with washers and nuts, so that when my testing is complete I can use the same stand-offs to hang the board from its ABS enclosure top bezel. One of the advantages here is that the height of the board, or the hang off-set, may be adjusted easily with the nuts and washers provided.
Standard 'stand-offs' may be purchased via electronics whole-salers and retailers, but these bolts are generally less expensive , may be obtained locally , and don't require shipping costs. This is just another option for mounting.

| Can't get power button to work |

Hi,
Today I decided to add a power button to my Pine64. I have a momentary push button switch with a red LED that I got off eBay that I was going to use and I soldered some header wires to use the switch with the EXP connector pins (using pin 5). However, I cannot get the switch to work. It works as a reset switch (using pin 4), but not as a power switch. I also soldered on the included switch to the holes at the front of the board but that does work either. I tired using the System LED pin (pin 2) on the EXP connector for the LED on my button, but that is not working as well. I have the latest release of Ubuntu installed. I don't see what is wrong, the button I have works, but connected to the Pine64 it doesn't? Any ideas?

Ok, so I'm running the latest RemixOs. I have the following:
- 1 third party wired XBOX controller
- 2 original SNES controllers
- multiple PS1/PS2 controllers
- a SNES to usb adapter (two SNES controllers in, one usb out)
- a PSX/PS2 to usb adapter (two PSX controllers in, one usb out)
Using Retroarch:
- one PSX controller plugged in, worked fine in the menus, but was non responsive in game
- the third party XBOX controller seems to work just fine in both menu and games
- one SNES controller plugged in, worked fine in the menus, but was non responsive in game
- on a hunch I disconnected the SNES controller from one adapter port, and plugged into the other one. Now it works in game, but not in menus.
Using SNESRetro 16:
- one SNES controller works just fine in both menus and in game.
- two SNES controllers seem to work fine in menus, but create problems in game.
- during co-op, each controller can perform fine one at a time, but if trying to use both at the same time, it creates problems.
- switched to the PSX adapter/controllers, and find the same thing.
Conclusion: The pine64 see's each controller as the same, because they're plugged into the same USB port. Can anyone else confirm/refute this?
I currently have a small usb dongle plugged into one port, for my wireless keyboard. That leaves one free port. Now, if I obtained a USB hub and plugged two XBOX controllers into it, would the Pine recognize them as two different controllers, or just one device?
