I was reading the posts and noticed one person mention that they had to sign for their package. Is it being sent as signature required in person or can you sign and leave it for the USPS for the next day?

Hey there still waiting on my board, but wondering what project to start with, I wondered if anyone has thought about using it as an Oculus rift, or any other VR setup.

Hello,
I apologize if this has been asked, but is there a tutorial or a quick-start guide? I"m not really sure where to start.
I'm familiar with using other microprocessor based FPGA boards which require downloading a program (i.e libero) and using verilog/C. However, as far as I can tell this is not needed for the pine64...? Basically, if anyone could help me get started, that'd be great.
Thanks

Hey everyone,

Having toyed around with the pine64 for a couple of weeks, I feel that now I zeroed in on a real day-to-day purpose for it. I want it to act as a NAS/ sync server. While I know that I could just get BitTorrent sync + samba installed on it and live happily ever after, I am wondering if it would be possible to build omv for the pine64. From what I remember omv uses Debian (right?) and not Ubuntu - hence my question, would it be possible to install omv on top of ubuntu?
 Cheers, 

Luke

Tried to burn the android image onto my sdcard but fails every time.
Phoenixcard is running as administrator.
Reformatted sdcard a few times still no luck.
The partition of the sdcard after phoenixcard reformatted it seems very weird.
Attached the images of error for reference.
Any help or advise would be appreciated.

Hi,
I just received my Pine A64 (1GB model)  and I wanted to try out Moonlight-embedded for streaming games (https://github.com/irtimmer/moonlight-embedded).
First I installed Arch Linux and then I followed the official instructions (https://github.com/irtimmer/moonlight-em...i/Packages)  for installing Moonlight.
Unfortunately I got the following error:

        package moonlight-embedded-2.1.4-1-armv7h does not have a valid architecture

I guess the issue here is that the pine uses the arm v8 architecture. 

Did someone already try to compile/install moonlight for the pine?

The forum has become somewhat messy and disorganised. I would like to restructure it slightly, rename some forums, add others, etc. Given below is my proposal for a new forum layout. Any input or suggestions much appreciated. 

A PLACE TO START - this forum includes a guide posted as a sticky explaining how to get the Pine64 up and running, noob questions and answers, and basic general discussion.

PROBLEMS, ISSUES, BUGS & SOLUTIONS - this forum is for discussion of various issues people have with the Pine64 and how to go about solving them. Could be further divided into more specific sub-forums, such as OS bug reports, display issues, power supply issues, etc.

USER PROJECTS - this forum is for people to propose and carry out their Pine64 related projects, so other people can follow along and add their help and advice along the way, if needed. A good example of this is Zoidano's car head unit: http://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=303

SUGGESTIONS - suggestions for improving the Pine64 in future iterations (adding USB 3.0, more RAM, different SoC, SATA, etc), improving the forum. Basically any constructive, helpful suggestions that can help to improve the Pine64 community.

SOFTWARE - this forum can largely remain as it is at the moment, there are many fantastic contributors already in this forum doing a great job.

HARDWARE - discussion of all things hardware-related, i.e. AllWinner SoC, GPIO, USB interface, Ethernet, etc.

PERIPHERALS - talk about keyboards, remotes, pointers, WiFi dongles, all plug-in peripheral-related things.

GENERAL CHAT - a place to talk about non-Pine64 things - movies, games, travel, work, etc.


The current official Pine64 NEWS forum does not have much activity. It could either be revamped (maybe as PINE64 OFFICIAL or something), or merged into the other forums.

Please all comment and let me know your thoughts on this. The better we can make this forum and the access to relevant information for people searching for solutions, the more useful it will be.

I have a 512GB card. Is it possible to load many operating systems on it and pick which to use when (or IF since I have problems with my board) boot up?

I'm only getting at most 40KB/s if I'm lucky. Apt-get update usually times out, one time it took 30 minutes to update. This is with both Ubuntu and Debian images, what gives? Is my board defective? I take a rasperry pi and plug it into the same ethernet cable and I'm able to get awesome speeds. At this point the pine64 is unusable for anything
