  How to make multicast working on ubuntu and debian
Posted by: brengthdom - 09-10-2016, 03:54 PM - Forum: Linux on Pine A64(+) - Replies (3)

Hi, I run VLC on Linux OS (Ubuntu and Debian) but it seems VLC cannot receive multicast stream. I can see that IGMP_JOIN is not sent out when trying to receive from multicast IP address (IPv4). I also tried a test program as calling setsockopt IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP which should send out IGMP_JOIN, but it is not sent. After some investigation, I can see that CONFIG_IP_MULTICAST is listed as disabled in /proc/config.gz. Maybe this is the reason, but I am not sure. How to make it working? Did anyone send IGMP_JOIN successfully? Thanks a lot. 


  Missing incomplete accessories YET no response
Posted by: racann - 09-10-2016, 02:42 PM - Forum: Shipment Related Discussion - Replies (9)

I really don't want to go posting this  topic but I say 3 months of waiting  is enough. 

TL Lim, where's my accessories?

You gave me this response:

"Already shippe don July 4 and here is the tracking number: RI902865565CN"

Which is useless.

So where's my Air mouse + some of my accessories now???


  Hue binding issue with OH2
Posted by: jmmorgan83 - 09-10-2016, 10:18 AM - Forum: openHAB - No Replies

I imagined the SD card with pine64_openhab_20150521_8GB. Openhab starts up fine, but obviously there are no interfaces. Using the classic interface model, I set up things, items, and sitemap as outline in the hue binding instructions (http://docs.openhab.org/addons/bindings/hue/readme.html). Hue starts and goes online, but I get the following error: "Could not update element with key hue:bridge:1 in ManagedThingProvider, because it does not exist." What am I missing? Any help would be appreciated.

  Question regarding Playbox case
Posted by: jeffrey_ring - 09-09-2016, 07:27 PM - Forum: Enclosures - Replies (3)

Hi!   I received my Playbox case and was able to connect everything together with the help of Bob Carlson's video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTCIiChX...e=youtu.be .   One thing Bob pointed out in his comments was the inability/difficulty to swap the microSD card if the case is snapped closed.   I was thinking about acquiring a microSD extension cable to plug into the microSD port on the board that could feed out the case opening where the USB ports are accessible so that I could easily swap out the card without having to re-open the case.  I am not sure if this would work or not.  Could someone please let me know their opinion on this?  Thanks!

Anybody know if any such thing exists? Probably not as I'm the first to ask about such a novel idea.

  White box plastic enclosure
Posted by: clawinus - 09-09-2016, 02:19 PM - Forum: Enclosures - Replies (3)

Today I received the Pine 64 enclosure, a white plastic box.
However, it was closed up. The lid is held by six hooks to the case
on the inside and you cannot lift the lid from the case,
so it is not posiible to put the Pine 64 board inside.

can somebody help?


  The thing I like
Posted by: S265 - 09-09-2016, 03:49 AM - Forum: Ubuntu - Replies (1)

Ubuntu Mate 16.04
3.10.101-4-pine64-longsleep

Things may not be perfect for your use case. Even in Ubuntu we want more. But hey, things are happening. Updates are coming thru. It takes time. Unfortunately 4k resolution and gaming performance are still a way off. In time all things are possible. It may not suit everyone but Pine64 is very cool.


  After update - won't power up with HDMI connected
Posted by: UnixOutlaw - 09-09-2016, 12:05 AM - Forum: Debian - Replies (6)

OK - now my Pine64+ (2 GB) won't stay "on" when I've got it connected to my lapdock.  Longsleep latest Debian XFCE build...

It was working before I did :

https://www.pine64.pro/getting-started-linux/  :


Code:
sudo -i /usr/local/sbin/pine64_update_uboot.sh /usr/local/sbin/pine64_update_kernel.sh resize_rootfs.sh reboot

(didn't need to resize - I already did that from GParted on my Linux workstation)


When I power it up, either from the power button, or plugging into mains (i.e. USB otg) - it stays up...

Once it's up - and - staying up - if I plug it into my Lapdock - I get nothing output...

If I try to power it up connected to the Lapdock - either drawing power from the Lapdock or direct from mains (i.e. USB otg) the PWR LED will come on for about 5-10 seconds then it shuts off again.

If I can get it "rescued" from this state (e.g. SSH over ethernet [I don't know what IP address it's getting over work's WiFi]) I'm going to rename the host to pezzo-di-merda...


  performance of the pine64+ 2GB on android LCD ver
Posted by: Ghelorn - 09-08-2016, 06:22 PM - Forum: Android on Pine A64(+) - Replies (8)

Hey guys. Finally assembled my playbox and downloaded the LCD android distro to play with.

This was 2 days ago. Had lots of dramas trying to get it to work with known working SD cards that work no worries on Debian or Ubuntu. Finally got it to work. Not sure why but it just started working.

So today I decide that I might try a 3dmark bench test...

It took 45 mins for it to boot up. It was alternating between freezing on optimizing apps, boot looping or booting to blank screen with lines.

Now its running its forgotten any system settings. Great... I finally reconnected to WiFi and downloaded 3dmark.

Apart from the whole thing being slow I can't see any reasons why I can't get an OK score.

Running the opengles 2.0 test here are my results.

Pretty poor.

This result is from my mobile. The huawei g8. Same test.

Anyhow I'm really not impressed by this board. Even when I tried kodi on the normal version, it struggled to play even a 1gig movie file along the network.
