I'm using the latest 16.04 image (xubuntu-xenial-20160501-longsleep-pine64), and seeing some annoying noise in dark areas of the screen. Mostly (near-)black ones, but some dark blue ones.

The noise is small numbers of individual pixels flickering between the expected color and a light one (maybe the 1's or 2's complement?? It looks a little yellowish when it's on blue). I don't see it on a normal desktop display, except in the terminal emulator window while the "logout" popup is displayed.

It's not always present in blue areas of the screensavers, but does show up sometimes.

It's always there during video playbacks, with videos recorded using the XviD, DivX 5, and MPEG codecs (all the types I've tried). It also shows up in MJPEG streams from an Axis camera. So it doesn't seem likely to be a codec bug.

It looks like it's probably either a hardware or a video driver bug. Any suggestions on how to isolate it?

Thanks,

Ran

Hi,

I used the phoenix card image from Android 5.1.1 Image Release 20160505 but it seems it's not rooted yet and the tool is not pre-installed on it.

Can you tell me how to root it?

Thanks

Hi,
    Who can tell me the debian root's password? Thank you very much.

I've just installed the 0508 version of Debian Jenny with Mate from the Pine64 download site and want to change the logon procedure so that it boots to the desktop without needing my input. I have x11vnc installed but I can't run completely headless since I need to use the USB keyboard to log on before the system finishes booting and brings up X11VNC.
I thought it'd be a simple thing to do, but there's no entry in any desktop menu I can find to change the logon (or even the User name). I'd expect to find it in one of the system settings but no go. I'm marginally capable of editing a config file if someone will just tell me which one, where it is, and the changes to make. I'm elderly but not blind, but did I miss the boat here on changing things via the GUI?

When I try to power on my Pine from the power button the board it seems to boot up but it goes off after a few seconds. It doesn't matter what I try, I'd like to know if my board is faulty or not.

Hi,

Since I didn't get an email response for my last email I'm trying this forum.

I am a December kickstarter backer which backed a Pine64 at the time.
When the surveys were sent out I upgraded my Pine64 to 2gb and added a WiFi and camera modules.

According to your kickstarter updates you seem to have everything in stock (Pine64 + accessories) so my question is why haven't I received a tracking code yet?

Thank you.

Hey so this is my first post, i have read a handful of threads to try and fix my issue but no luck. first of all, NONE of the wiki download links are working for me, every single one of them say they are corrupted when i try to unzip them. my second problem, when i plug in my pine64 to the charger and the hdmi... nothing, i though i have seen in other videos people plugging them in, and getting the pine64 screen, i dont even get that, i get the red light on indicating there is power, but nothing else. i have a geniune 16gb class 10 sandisk card, and the 1 gb pine64. I am very new to all this so i really need basic tutorial, but even the basic videos i have watched still all direct me to the pine wiki page for download, and none of them work... super frustrated. please help.
