Hi all. Not sure how many of you have tried to SSH into your pine64 (using debian image) from outside of the LAN. I am unable to do so. Here are some things I have discovered to help.

1. I have a Raspberry Pi that I can SSH into from the outside. I have a router/modem combo from COX and can SSH from the outside and inside the LAN just fine. And strange enough, I don't even have to forward any ports to do this.
2. I tried to open the port on the router and looks like that doesn't matter one way or another.
3. When the RPi is plugged in to the router/modem, when I check the port 22 on a website, I enter my outside LAN IP and scan port 22 opens. When I remove the RPi and scan again port 22 closes.
4. With the pine64, I have the SSH setup. I can ssh to it from inside my lan network. Can't access outside my LAN.
5. Ran nmap

I've emailed support AT LEAST 3 times since I got my "Your Package has shipped". I have yet to hear back from them about ANYTHING. 

I got the email on May 27th. That's almost 3 weeks ago. 

It came with a tracking number. I emailed them a few days later to let them know the tracking number would not work. Then about a week ago I got the Kickstarter email saying that some packages didn't get "scanned" or whatever. Now I see that MANY other people are in the same boat. 

I tried my tracking number again... Still, nothing. It just says "Pending" like it did since May 27th. 

Why am I being ignored by support? Why hasn't my package gotten here yet? Why hasn't my tracking number been updated? Why haven't I received any information other than the Kickstarter update that blamed the shipping company? 

This is my tracking number... As if it would help.

Boots when just wifi/Bluetooth, and boots when just LCD/ Touchscreen. I'm running the android lcd version. When both are in the red light turns off then on and and nothing happens

Hi, I was playing a bit with the bluetooth part on the RTL8723bs. What I gather from the documentation and the web it's just a normal serial interface and needs to be initialized correctly. I used a small program from https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8723bs_bt and was able to talk to the BT module on /dev/ttyS1 (physical UART is UART1 on Port G of the A64) and it seems it was able to initialize the BT and hook it up to the Linux BT subsystem. (see http://pastebin.com/Z3RUS9kc for output and dmesg). Now I have to see if it actually works :-)

Edit: while the initialization seems to work, the Linux BT stack doesnt register any new adapters, I have to look into how to debug that....

Hi,
I recently moved over to the Ubuntu image after longsleep stopped supporting the Arch version. However, I'm now getting very slow boot times of up to 5 minutes, and the issue seems to be with the wifi driver:

Hello,

I got problem with using my lbp 6020 printer. I used the 32bit drivers as amr64 drivers are not available. Everything went Ok, but when try to print a test page or any other, the printer shows "Filter Failed" error and it does not print. Have someone encountered this? 

this is the output of lpstat -t

as I checked /etc/init.d/ccpd status I got no numbers as i installed it on Ubuntu I got two numbers which meant that it was operating correctly..

I was just browsing the schematics for the Pine from the Wiki. On page 15 of the schematic where the connections for the WIFI/BT module are made, there is a direct connection between VCC-WIFI (the module supply) and VBAT-EXT (the external battery voltage after the current sensing shunt). What is the reason for that, couldn't that cause trouble in some setups?

Hi guys, 

So finally after a order two chargers off of Amazon and rewriting my SD card about ten times I have successfully booted Remix OS. My concern is that it is very slow and crashes a fair amount. They only way I've managed to boot it is by download and using the Remix V2.0 designed for 8bg on a 64g SD card. I was wondering if this will be contributing to the slow performance?

Thanks,

Josh

I got the kit that included the touchscreen and a few other things I am not even sure what they are don't have the case yet which I know is on the way, does anyone have photos of how to install the touch screen correctly? I would like to use it for the first time with that, or do I need to attach it to a monitor and keyboard before I can setup the touch screen? I've not turned my pine64 on yet : was hoping the OS was already on the mini SD but from the look of the forum here I may need to make a boot card.

Logic dictates this is possible, but thought I'd throw a quick question about it....

I have Remix OS 2.0 up and running....can I get another SD card and install, say a linux img on it and swap it out at any time?

Thanks
Fitz
