Information Non-backer Pine A64+ recieved
Posted by: jayare69@pacbell.net - 06-30-2016, 03:37 PM - Forum: Shipment Related Discussion - No Replies

I just missed the Kickstarter program, ordering my Pine A64+ on Feb 9th.  And of course, was not able to order any accessories to go with it due to the store not being open yet.  Also not having any idea what I was going to need because that information was not posted on the website. Store opens on what May 2nd, however I dont know when I will be getting my board and I also don't know what products I am going to need for a computer browser and a media center having never messed with Android, Remix OS or Linux, and reading the forum I got kinda scared.... so I waited, now ordered items on June 26 and will not receive until mid July......



Feb   9, 2016                  Ordered Pine A64+
May 24, 2016                 Received e-mail from Pine with USPS tracking #, Order has been sent.
May 25, 2016                 Pre-Shipment Info Sent to USPS
June 2, 2016 5:49 pm   Accepted at USPS Origin Facility, MILPITAS, CA 95035
June 2, 2016 7:04 pm   Arrived at USPS Origin Facility, SAN JOSE, CA 95101 
June 3, 2016 1:11 am   Arrived at USPS Facility, WEST SACRAMENTO, CA 95799
June 3, 2016 2:38 am   Departed USPS Destination Facility, WEST SACRAMENTO, CA 95799
June 3, 2016 7:36 am  Arrived at Post Office, MODESTO, CA 95350
June 3, 2016 9:11 am  Sorting Complete, MODESTO, CA 95350
June 3, 2016 9:23 am  Out for Delivery, MODESTO, CA 95350
June 3, 2016 12:40 pm  Delivered, In/At Mailbox, MODESTO, CA 95350


My point is that there are BACKERS  who have not yet received their BACKER KITS, yet I have received my board already.  Just doesn't seem FAIR AT ALL. Huh

And I do understand other items are back-ordered but I am sure those BACKERS would like to have communication on the status of their boards....

Computers are in fact a communication device Idea

I don't know, maybe I am the odd thinking one.......... Cool

and I live not 80 miles from the company, could have driven there and picked it up long ago if possible.....

  5v|batt jumper next to Pine logo on the Pine64+ board
Posted by: MarkHaysHarris777 - 06-30-2016, 10:47 AM - Forum: DC Power In - Replies (8)

I am having trouble finding the 5v|batt jumper (the one next to the PineLogo) on the schematics !

... can someone tell me where it's located on the sheets?  tnx.

Also, does that jumper need to be moved in order to use the batt|charger ?

tnx, again.


  hdmi_group CEA or DMT hdmi group specify uEnv.txt
Posted by: MarkHaysHarris777 - 06-30-2016, 10:44 AM - Forum: HDMI Port - Replies (2)

Does the hdmi port support both industry standards CEA & DMT ?

In uEnv.txt, is there a way to specify which hdmi_group we're using [ CEA or DMT ] ?


  (ARCHIVED) Debian Mate (3.10.102 BSP)
Posted by: janeku - 06-30-2016, 09:53 AM - Forum: Debian - Replies (15)

Hi,
I find some issues regarding this Debian version. When i click on upper right corner where connection information is, and after that i request connection information, it says error connection and there is no active connection. I tried to do snapshot of this situation and again there was an error saying PNG type is not supported and therefore it can not make any screenshots.
Also iceweasel started blocking when accessing You tube, just stood there and the only option is to do xkill.
All these things happened after installing last kernel.
At this moment i do apt-get upgrade in order to see if everything is ok.
Maybe these issues with kernel should be fixed as soon as possible.
last option is to re-burn original ime and trying not to upgrade latest kernel Smile
Longsleep, do you have any answer to this ?


  Remix OS not working with projector
Posted by: MikeJewski - 06-30-2016, 09:09 AM - Forum: Remix OS - Replies (1)

I attempted to connect my Pine running Remix to a projector, only for it to not work, and be met with a screen saying "frequency out of range". I found out that there are multiple reasons for this, but a possible one is if the refresh rate is set above 60Hz. Is it possible to see/change the refresh rate of Remix OS? The Debian image is working just fine.


  Widescreen gaming in Google Play
Posted by: DwyerSP - 06-30-2016, 08:37 AM - Forum: Android on Pine A64(+) - Replies (1)

Hello. I'm not terribly familiar with the Android OS, so please forgive my ignorance...

That said, I'm attempting to play a game I downloaded from the Google Play store, or whatever (Final Fantasy: Brave Exvius). It seems to work fine, but it seems it can only be played vertically. And since I have my Pine A64 plugged into a TV, this is a problem. Is there a relatively simple option to change the orientation on games, or am I stuck having to play this game with my head sideways?

Thanks, 
Sean 


Question PPS-GPIO
Posted by: Sebastian - 06-30-2016, 06:05 AM - Forum: Linux on Pine A64(+) - Replies (11)

Hello Forum,

i want to set up a stratum 1 server on the pine, with the Adafruit GPS-Board. On the Pi it's no problem, because i don't need to make big changes.

What I have done so far on pine:

Code:
$ git clone --depth 1 --single-branch -b pine64-hacks-1.2 https://github.com/longsleep/linux-pine64
$ curl -sSL https://github.com/longsleep/build-pine64-image/raw/master/blobs/pine64.dts > linux-pine64/arch/arm64/boot/dts/sun50i-a64-pine64-plus.dts
$ make menuconfig

The pps-part in the config looks like this:
Code:
#
# PPS support
#
CONFIG_PPS=m
CONFIG_PPS_DEBUG=y

#
# PPS clients support
#
CONFIG_PPS_CLIENT_KTIMER=m
CONFIG_PPS_CLIENT_LDISC=m
CONFIG_PPS_CLIENT_PARPORT=m
CONFIG_PPS_CLIENT_GPIO=m

#
# PPS generators support
#
After build dmesg shows:

Code:
# dmesg | grep pps
[   14.067625] pps_core: LinuxPPS API ver. 1 registered
[   14.092242] pps_core: Software ver. 5.3.6 - Copyright 2005-2007 Rodolfo Giometti <giometti@linux.it>

But where the pin is defined?
The pps-source is connected to Pin 18 on the board.
That's all what I have found:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation...s-gpio.txt
https://dev.openwrt.org/browser/trunk/ta...?rev=44392

For me that sounds like rocket science. :/

Could somebody "take me by the hand" please, and tell me what is the next step?



(And please, excuse my bad english.)


  Tracking Number?
Posted by: UrbanGecko - 06-30-2016, 05:31 AM - Forum: Shipment Related Discussion - Replies (3)

Hi guys  Smile

I've been waiting patiently hoping to get some kind of news, however, haven't heard anything. I've also been checking kistarters comments daily reading "literally" every comment from about 353 or something like that, seen the good and the bad there, lately though so many people have been getting theirs, kind of making my burn even more for this thing.

Could you please let me know what the status of my order is? I'm backer number 15,785. I've also checked backerkit daily, or multiple times a day for the last couple of months, and nothing has updated there. I was part of the March tier.

Really dying to get this now.

Please let me know whats happening

Regards
Micah
