Hi All,

Luke & I have been discussing meeting up for the first London (South East England) User Group Meeting. We've also been discussing when, we feel we may want to wait for the Kickstarter boards to be completely delivered and the shops first customers getting their boards. As always we ask you the community for your opinion.

Luke has already suggested a location ....

I don't recall previous versions doing this, but the mouse wheel seems backwards in play store, but normal in settings, Chrome, ES3, calendar...

in play store, to scroll down, I have to push the wheel away from me.  everything else is the other way.  why is this one different?

I am a Feburary backer, #2,262 to be exact and ordered an acrylic case and Wifi Module. I received message that it was shipped over a month ago and it has yet to arrived. Does it usually take this long for it to arrive?

Well unfortunately I have not yet heard back from the pine support team.

The Pine device that I received should have 2GB memory but unfortunately only appears to have 1GB.

Hi!

Not sure if I've done something wrong when I installed Remix OS on my SD-card, but even though the card is 32gb, there's only like 3gb free space when Remix starts up.
Where is the rest?

Do I need a specific image, or is there a way to expand the file size?

My wireless mouse and keyboard work on all 7 of my other Linux and Windows machines, and even on the Pine64 Android distro, but not in Debian. It's puzzling. Entering "lsusb" shows the dongle is recognized (listed as Bus 3 Device 2 in the top USB port, Bus 4 Device 2 in the bottom port). So the USB dongle is recognized but after that, no function. Obviously all my experience back in the CP/M OS days isn't going to help here...

What do I need to do to set up UART2 to be able to parse GPS packets from Adafruit's GPS hat for the Raspberry Pi. I would like it to be be done automatically at boot-up.

Anyone encounters the same thing? There is no serial number on the board and somehow some Chinese words attached to the board. Does anyone understand what those Chinese words really mean...? I am suspecting it's a faulty board... Attached please find the photo for the board I got...
   

I've been trying to keep up with things (both on KryPtAlIvIaN's Compatibility thread and on Recalbox's GitHub) but things are at the moment less than clear. As far as I can tell, there's scattered reports of various games working here and there, but not much else.

So the question is... what's the status?

My plan at the moment is to slap Ubuntu on it and try to build Retropie from source. I have no idea if this is going to work though.

Recalbox's fine folk seem to be converging on a working solution - should I hold off for that instead?

Thanks!

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
