I'm looking to deploy several pine64's in our church for digital signage. I was wondering if anyone could tell me if the pine64 running Ubuntu would be able to handle the Rise player? https://help.risevision.com/user/create-a-display
Hello, I am picking one of these units and hoping to start figuring out these new sub 20$ computer systems (ardunio/raspberry)
I really want to use this to remote monitor my homes heating units. I want to be able to monitor and record 4 different temperatures, with the capability of adding more, with a simple flow meter.
If anyone has any experience doing this, please feel free to contact me, or if anyone wants to figure this out and get a working model built - also contact me
I don't mind learning, but I also don't need or want to recreate a wheel if its already working.
Is it possible for me to compile Android from source code and flash the sdcard's system partition with the new system.img? Is there anything else I need to do other then flashing?
Congratulations on your $1m KickStarter achievement! Clearly you have struck a nerve. I have signed up for the Pine A64+ with 2GB RAM to use to trial Linux, as I'm becoming increasingly interested in open source / disillusioned with Apple.
On a bit of a side note, have you have tested the Pine64+ with OpenVPN? I know it's not top of everyone's wish list, but it is mine.
I live in rural Thailand, and my internet connection is rather unreliable. However, I have found that, by connecting to my own VPN server via OpenVPN, I can get speed increases of 50%, along with reduction in latency and increased reliability.
The other thing I've done is to invest in a Peplink bonding router, which allows me to bond multiple ISP WAN connections. At the moment I'm bonding 4.
However, it strikes me that I should be opening a VPN connection on each WAN connection before they enter the bonding router, so I've been talking with PicoCluster about them building me an 8 board, 4 node cluster, based on Pine A64+, as per the attached diagram.
Will this work? I don't think the chip you're using is particularly suited for AES encryption, so want to be sure before I spend $800+ on my little project!
Hello, I have been following this project and absolutely love what you have been doing.
I've been looking into DIY cheap server design and was comparing Pine64 against my other options as a good candidate.
The variations of the card all do a good job of catering to well-rounded software development (e.g. mobile, video, and touch).
I was wondering if you ever considered a card variation oriented towards low graphics, high cpu/memory usage?
2-4GB RAM, Ethernet, expansions, and basic video (My server box doesn't need 4K video ). Things for doing renderings, crunching calculations, running dedicated servers.
I know these generally are made to cater towards wide audiences, but it's just a thought I've been turning in my head as someone who has worked with server stacks.
Or is this a case where I should simply use the Pine64+2GB and just not utilize the extra features?
