Hallo,

normaly the ESP8266 works over TTL and can on this way only give only very low and unstable connection.

Than there is a very messy way to get fast wifi over the GPIO (or you buy the HAT 30€ and 15€ shipping)

But since the Pine has SDIO connectors this should much more better...in theory ^^

I have bought a cheap WiFi dongle from ebay, it costs about $2 and looks like this:

As it has no branding or whatsoever, I have run following to identify it (only relevant output is copied):

As a backer, I got my Pine64 few days ago.
I was able to use it in multiple ways and now I'm wondering how to use my nice LCD touch screen with the Debian version.

Thanks in advance for advice and help.

Cheers,

Hi there,

I just received my shipment earlier this week, but it did not come with a board inside of the package? It did come with two HDMI cables for some reason?

I have attached a picture of the contents of my package. My Kickstarter backer number is 37,993.

Can someone advise me as to what steps I take next to getting a board shipped to me? 

Thanks. =)

I purchased an HDMI to DVI converter.
Tried it with Android and Ubuntu, neither work with my DELL 2407FP
24-Inch WUXGA 1920 x 1200 Display

Boots fine though (can ssh to Ubuntu)
Using an HDMI cable direct to a regular 1080p flatscreen TV/Monitor does work.
Both Android and Ubuntu work with HDMI (not with the converter)

Wondering why you sell the HDMI to DVI converter in the Pine64 store.

How can we get a build for Android or Linux that works with DVI?
Can I help with any builds to test with HDMI?

Is there an image, preferably Debian or Ubuntu, with kernel modules for DVB-T dongles included?
In particular, I need dvb-usb-it913x and it913x-fe modules, but I do not see any dvb-related modules in /lib/modules in any of the images I have found.

(I wanted to use my Pine64 as a tvheadend-server for Kodi. It worked out of the box with my Raspberry pi, but it died recently and I wanted to replace it with something faster..)

Thanks.

my board boots up just fine but i cant get any keyboard or mouse to work since the ports dont seem to be working at all the devices dont even power up. Is it a hardware or a software problem since i've tried different OS-es and none of them fixed the problem?

On May 27th I received a "Pre-Shipment" notification. As of today (7/2/2016) I have not received any updates either by email from you or by my email requests.

I have also not received the board. Shipment is via USPS and tracking # is 9405511699000540563204

I understand delays. I am more concerned about lack of communication.

I saw posts here saying that headset microphones should work, but so far Remix isn't recognising any of my own headsets or a 4-pole TRRS type headphone adapter with mic that I've just bought. I've tested using the sound recorder and Google voice search. Is this a known issue with the Android and/or Remix distributions, or do I possibly have a fault?

Hi All,
I've just installed Ubuntu Xenial on my Pine64 board.
Everything is fine except the HDMI output.
I can't see the top bar (and probably some pixels even from the other sides).
I've digged the net looking for a solution.
It seems to be related to overscan.
My TV doesn't have an overscan option to enable/disable.

Is there any way to fix this problem via terminal?
I've played with xrandr but I always get an error.

Any suggestion could be helpful!

Thanks
Luca
