I'm not sure if this is better posted in hardware or software, but...

How does the Pine A compare with the Raspberry Pi in terms of vision processing?  I tried a simple OpenCV blob tracking example with the Pi, and it gave an unacceptable framerate of 5-7 FPS.  Can we expect a better framerate with the Pine (20-30 FPS)?

I presume that they'll be made available - but from whence, and when? 
I would imagine that official torrents will be an option as well?

Thanks for reading, and am looking forward to trying out this spiffy little guy

Hi, wille there be any graphics drivers for Linux so we can use it as a media player or will there only be Android media player that is supported?

/D

Hey guys,

I was wondring if pine could run teamspeak3 server because it's ARM based CPU.

Someone have knowledge about this?


Kind Regards
Glen

Can the PINE 64 boot from a TFTP server or NFS Share?

For example, could a bootstrap be placed on the micro-SD that would boot a Linux OS over the network?  The bootstrap on the SD card would be simple and rarely change.  The Linux OS on the TFTP or NFS share could be dynamic.

Thanks!

Here is a copy of a message I sent to the creators/developers... I was thinking that some of these things could be answered for me here and then others like me would be able to benefit from it.


This project really really fascinates me, but I am not knowledgable about computers. I don't know enough about some of the terms your using to know the full extent of the boards abilities. The idea of expanding with more boards could be the kick computers needs to jump to the next level. What can I do with the computer? I don't know any OS except Windows, and I stumble through android on my tablet (still using a flip phone here), with dozens of Apps I have no idea what they are. Will I be able to use the computer, with the proper interfaces of course.


I guess what I am asking is how can I, a not so computery person use and benefit from the computer?

I really love the idea and modular design of it.

oh and if someone gets say 10 is there a housing option, or do you have ideas for that?


Thanks all for responses.

Just wondering if there will be updates to android 6.0 or higher in the future?

Can we get some details about the expansion headers and what will/will not be available on them?

Some of us probably want to get started on expansion modules already. 

I love Ubuntu. I research more more Pine64, but I not sure that pine64 can run Ubuntu Server for Arm, Ubuntu Mate, Ubuntu 15.04, 15.10, 16.04 (ubuntu core 15.04). If not, future can support?

Good to see the 31k goal   ordered the 2GB one

I wonder which expansion chip can we purchase with bluetooth + wifi, and what is the name of its port?

thanks in advance
