I was just browsing the Datasheet and User Manual of the A64 and while I am glad that we have those available, I also noticed that the section for the DE2.0 (Display Engine) is just a two page stub in the user manual... is there a chance that we can get that documentation released as well, or is this something super secret?

Hi, i've found this library. I would like to port it from a20 to a53 processors. Someone has got any suggestion??

I recently upgraded phones as my S4's screen gave out. I was wondering if there's anything I can salvage from my Samsung Galaxy S4 and repurpose for use on my Pine board (whenever it actually arrives)? I'm new to this kind of thing and plan on using the Pine as a learning tool. I found this teardown that shows the components of the S4...

I keep hearing people say "you must not know how kickstarter works" as they thumb their nose at customer complaints, but I fail to see the justification for a company that just took $1.7 Million in pledges to run this horribly. The logistics issues are a complete embarrassment. I submitted my order in December, was told it would arrive in March, was told it shipped 3 weeks ago, still waiting with no tracking updates whatsoever. Then they can't even respond to customer emails for "10 days" and they act like the people getting upset about that are being unreasonable. $1.7 Million, hire some staff and get your shit together. This is a total shambles.

I have set up a 32GB SD card from pine64-image-debianmate-310101bsp.img.xz with command xzcat /media/pine64-image-debianmate-310101bsp.img.xz|pv|sudo dd of=/dev/sdc bs=1M oflag=sync

I have the 2GB version of pine64 with WiFi native board installed. Once I plug the micro sd card it boots (albeit taking more than 1 minute to get me to the desktop).

From the debian mate desktop I can set up the wifi connection and I can see the connection is set up. I can also do sudo apt-get update / upgrade. But when I try to access websites with Iceweasel I get errors. For example www.yahoo.com works but www.github.com doesn't work.

I have tried also git clone from github but I get an error Failed to connect to github.com port 443: No route to host

My ISP is ipv6 based. Any other device in the house (Windows PC, Linux PC, Android device) have standard DHCP settings and all work without problems. What can I check/set on the pine board to get complete connectivity?

Hi,

does anybody consider to use Pine64 as an Ethereum node (like a go-ethereum)?

Will that work or is that a completely crazy idea?

Thanks,
Artur.

I wrote an artile about my initial thoughts of my Pine64+ 2GB model. Check it out: http://techscout.online/2016/06/16/pine6...-thoughts/
I am also going to write an article about setting up the SD card for the Pine and about problems related to booting the Pine!

Hi everybody.

I'm downloading the Android 5.1.1 Image (LCD Panel Video Output) Release 20160603, for 32GB microSD Card from the official page and it's extremely slow.
I've got 300Mb from my ISP provider so this can't be the problem.

Is there any other source or server where I can download it from?

Any is suggestion welcome.
Thanks in advance

I have the battery pack for the Pine, and my goal was to use it sort of like a battery backup for a server. What I'm wondering is if there is a way in Ubuntu to pull any stats on the battery. Mostly I'd like to track the charge percentage if possible just for monitoring purposes. I know it's not connected like an actual UPS, so I assume it can't be managed the same way. Does anybody know if this is possible?

Please share your actual free space results, on microSD cards without any known defects, with only 1 partition.

SanDisk Ultra UHC-I class 10, red/grey, "32GB" has only 28.7GB of actual space. Partitioning software cannot increase it.

SanDisk says that they define 1 GB as 1000MB, not 1024MB. That would only be 2.3% off, but this card is missing 10.3%. As a result, 16GB images are the largest images that I can use.
