I have seen many posts about Kodi on Android, but from what I have read Kodi runs better on Linux.

Do we know if Kodi will be ported to 64bit Linux in the Pine.

Hi, 
will the Pine A64 have a CE mark that declares that the product meets the requirements of the directives of the European Union? 

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?

HI,

Im interested and confused about shipping to EU, to be exact Finland, will be the 15/19/29 + how much? And when we would know how much is it?

Thank you!

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.

Thanks

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?

Hi

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!

Thanks.

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?

Many Thanks,
Jigen

Since the stretch goal has been passed, the board circuit for a power switch will be there, what options will there be for using or not using it?
