| Variable Gigabit Ethernet speed? |

(I've seen there are some older threads / bug reports about gigabit Ethernet running VERY slowly, but I think this might be a separate issue?)
I've got 5 PINE A64+ 2GB boards running Debian Jessie 8.5 base, kernel3.10.102-2-pine64-longsleep, connected to an otherwise empty 8-port gigabit switch. The speeds I'm getting with iperf are excellent  , but strangely variable.
Code: # Run server on board 1
iperf -s -V
# Run client for 100 seconds on board 2, connecting to board 1
iperf -c board1 -i 1 -t 100 -V
Between board A and B I can consistently get 828 Mbits/sec over long periods, but back the other way I only get 733 Mbits/sec. With pairs of the other boards I can consistently get 800+ Mbits/sec on some, but only 561/596/633 Mbits/sec on others. 
Do you think this is simply hardware variation? 47% range!
Thanks

| CPU speed / governor=performance? |

I'm using Debian Jessie 8.5 base, kernel3.10.102-2-pine64-longsleep on a PINE A64+ 2GB and noticed that the CPU clock speed is fixed at 1.152GHz and the governor=performance.
Is this temporary while final scaling settings are being worked out? I'd hope to use something like ondemand, to dynamically scale the clock speed as required, like with other ARM boards. This *appears* to work:
Code: echo ondemand | tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor >/dev/null
and my board dynamically scales between 480MHz and 1152MHz.
Also, are the 1200MHz and 1344MHz CPU speeds practical to use? mentioned in /sys/devices/system/cpu/*/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies
Thanks

| waterproof aluminium enclosure... |

Received my aluminium enclosure today - and I'm a little puzzled, I would have thought that if I buy an enclosure specifically for the pine64, that it would at least have some obvious place to mount the pine64 - but the screw holes in the case do not match up with the screw holes in the pine64... ...and no other mounting equipment included, either...
:-(
Is this really "designed" this way, or am I missing something in the delivered package for the enclosure?

Hi.
First off, I'm backer 27,630. I have not received my board yet. But that's secondary right now.
At May 29, I made another order for 2 x 2gb boards (order: 8163411). There, I've made a small typo in the address and I sent a mail to sales@pine64.com the same day with the correct address. After waiting for a reply. I resent the mail again at Jun 9. Yesterday I forwarded it to shipping@pine64.com.
If you guys can't fix this. Please cancel the order and repay me. I won't argue about the Kickstarter situation. That is ok and I'm happy to wait for it. But you guys not answering my mails. In 10 days, it will be a month without contact. This is not acceptable.
Andreas

Hi,
I burn an 32gb image on a 64gb card due to room request larger than available, now I was wondering if the free space(around 30gb) of my 64gb SD card can be formatted in a new FAT32 partion and used for general purpose.
If the answer will be yes, what kind of software should i use?
I've tried "Disk Management" on my ubuntu distro, but I continue having an error message like this:
ERROR CREATING PARTITION
Error creating partition on /dev/sdb: Command-line `parted --align optimal --script "/dev/sdb" "mkpart primary ext2 30767MiB 64155025407b"' exited with non-zero exit status 1: Error: Can't have overlapping partitions.
(udisks-error-quark, 0)
Any suggestion?

Hi,
I've no received any information that my order #8162485 was send. I will change my location on few days so I need to change my shipping address. How can I do that? I send mail to sales@pine64.com but I got no response.
Btw: when my order probably will be sent?
Regards,
Patryk Czarnota

I have the Pine 2 gb version, with ubuntu mate OS via micro SD. I had purchased this mainly to make it a TV box, and I installed Kodi on this, but I find the performance ridiculously slow, like sub 1 FPS, not real time at all. Is this expected? I discovered that VLC doesnt play some of my videos (all that I tried), is this expected?
Would both these problems go away with some sort of codecs and or hardware support for graphics? Or is this not possible?
Also, when i power on my Pine, I get a red indicator light for power. Is this normal? I saw a few images with a green light. Is this an indicator of low power supply? Could this be causing my performance problems above?
