Hi,

I am wondering if the Z-wave module developed for the PINE will work on a Raspberry PI B+/2/3?

Thx

Hi.
My idea is to connect Pine to Hi-fi and then to be able to stream wirelessly music from in ex tablet/smartphone or just connect to Pine wirelessly. Would it be better to intall RemixOs or some Linux based Os?

PhoenixCard app is not really an option for me as the several computers I am running are all Mac OSX. I do have a netbook running Mint Linux. Looking for option that will work for the OS I have.  Also any specific Allwinner requirements might be helpful. I am comfortable with CLI and did a recent install of MintLinux with a formatted USB thumb drive from the Mac. Sure it is possible but need to be pointed in the right direction.

Hi whats the status of the Pine64 boards with regards to the ZWave?  (can't complete survey)

Do all boards have this feature?
Is so, in our region we have to have one that operates on legal frequencies; can you let us know when that will be available please.

I see the sound bar in actu n'33, It is a good idea, 

I would like to do the same project.

anyone know how to have the source of this project..?

thanks you

I've been experimenting with some of the GPIOs on my Pine, and I think I figured out how to talk to them using /sys/class/gpio. Unlike the Pi, which I am coming from, the GPIO numbers are different. I found another resource on the web that said in order to get the GPIO number for a different chip, you need to take the letter from the Pin number, convert it to a number, subtract 1, multiply by 32, then add the listed GPIO number. I thought that was strange, but figured I'd give it a try. For example, I wanted to write to the Pi 2 pin #16, which is GPIO 23. I did the folllowing:

Using the document attached to this post, I determined the pin I want is PC13.

P="Pin", we don't care about this.
C=3rd letter in alphabet, but we're nerds, we count from zero, so C=2 (subtract 1)
13=GPIO 23 We just use the raw number, I can't math.

So we take 2 and multiply it by 32, which seems to be a magic number. I'm sure it has significance to someone, but not a n00b like me. 2*32 = 64. Now we add 64+13 from the pin out document to get a final result of 77.

Then, as root, I changed into /sys/class/gpio and enabled the GPIO:

I am looking to see how many people actually got a bent board, and if it impacted the function of the board. Post below with your results.

Hi

I have an external USB drive that I plan to use with Android as a media centre. It's a 1TB drive, about half full of stuff, currently formatted as EXT4 due to being previously attached to an old Popcorn Hour A210.

Does the current (latest) Android image support EXT4 for external drives?

Are there any plans for a GPS board like Adafriut's Ultimate GPS HAT for the Raspberry Pi?

So I got my Pine64 in the mail the other day, and I bought some fancy new microSD cards for it for experimentation. I've got it all hooked up to my RPi dev station. Now, is there a Debian based Linux release somewhere in the wild I can play with? Google is failing me with an answer. All I've found is Android and Arch. I guess I can make do with Arch, but couldn't care less about Android. Most posts and updates are from early February, when not many people had their boards. Am I just one of the first to receive it?
