Busted Pine64 does not turn on any more |

Got mine a couple of hours ago (2GB). Burned a Ubuntu image and booted it up. Rebooted a couple of times. And now it doesn't turn on anymore. The red LED stays off. Looks dead.
I tried a few other USB power supplies (I have quite a few and I bought them for my Pis, none of those crappy ones that you get with your phone) and nothing. The board seems to be busted. I removed everything (no keyboard or mouse or Ethernet or HDMI cable, no SD card) and it didn't make any difference.
Sigh.. knowing them, 1- it will take them forever to replace the board and 2- they will charge me another $7 to send a replacement
Waiting for : it must be your fault doing something you're not supposed to do. your power supply was -bad-, cables have not been thick enough. Stop whining, there is always problem with a new piece of hardware, etc. etc. etc.
is the right email support@pine64.com?

no permanent MAC address? need it to give Pine64 a reserved IP. |

hi,
i need my Pine64 A64+ 2 GB RAM board to have a permanent MAC address, yet it seems to get a new, random one every time i restart.
allow me to explain —
i need the permanent MAC address so my home router (Xfinity/Comcast Cable Modem) can give it a permanent IP in the DHCP list. the reason i need that, is so i can do port forwarding and be able to ssh into the board, if i leave it on (currently with Arch Linux, i also have other MicoSD cards that have other OS's, like Ubuntu). if the MAC address changes each time, the router can't find it and just gives it a random IP number, instead of my desired permanent IP that i am looking for, and, of course, i can never log-in to the board.
however, every time i restart the board, it has a new MAC address (???). at least for the ethernet, as that is the only real MAC address for it i see. i've confirmed this both with the router software looking at the board's MAC address each time i've re-started it, as well as with ifconfig -a and dmesg. in fact, dmesg has this line in it —
Code: ...
eth0: Use random mac address
...
meaning, it is set up to give a new MAC address on each boot.
is there any way to make it so the board has the same, consistent MAC hardware address each time it is re-booted? any help here would be appreciated.
best,

At what point do you give up and ask for a refund or another board |

Tried every single os, different micro sd cards, cdmi cables, tv's, power supplies and still have a board that power up, has no display, no boot.
I even left it overnight on numerous occasions, left it for a few hours on others. I am fully at the end of my tether with a board that simply will not boot!
the current card is a 32GB card plugged into an LG tv using a power supply that works well with a raspberry pi. I am beginning to get annoyed but am holding back as being an engineer means having patient with new tech but I must say, even the pi has never given me this much grief!
I am on the verge of simply buying a pi 3 and sticking to that as I know it works. If I said I was truly disappointed, it would the the understatement of the year so far!

Pine64 Linux fixup script |

I am a friend of pragmatic solutions, so here is a very simple one to handle current and future fixes required on Pine64 without having to provide packaging.
So there is now a script which can be run on any Pine64 (Linux) any time, multiple times. The script will fix whatever needs fixing. Thus the script is called "pine64_fix_whatever.sh". The idea is that whenever some issue comes up, a solution can be added to this script, run it again and be good.
Fixes (in the order as they have been added):
- Pulseaudio stuttering by disable timer-based audio scheduling
The script is part of my platform-scripts at https://github.com/longsleep/build-pine6...rm-scripts.
You can simply run it like this on all Linux images (as root):
Code: bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/longsleep/build-pine64-image/master/simpleimage/platform-scripts/pine64_fix_whatever.sh)
And reboot afterwards.

Duplicate MAC addresses |

Hello,
I just got my 4 Pine64's in the mail. I plugged them all in and got everything working using the latest Ubuntu 16.04 off the wiki. I noticed odd network issues. Eventually realizing that all 4 have the same exact MAC address.
Would this be an Ubuntu issue or is this a hardware issue? Is this a known issue?
What can I do about it? Can I change the MAC addresses?
