Anyone near Gravesend, Kent, UK need help ? - frewind - 05-05-2016 Hi All, I've been pine user now for a little while and I've been through all of the all the "aaaaahhhhhh" moments, and I've built up a little bit "and I mean a little bit" of know how on the device. It occurred to me that if people are having issues with the Pine's I may be able to help... The important bit's are.... I have a know working power supplier. I have a few know working SD card with boot images. I have a working display with the right HDMI cables. I have a serial port setup for monitoring the boot from the EXP UART port I have working 1GB Eithernet. and I'll have a power monitor set up tomorrow. With this lot I can test DOA issues people are having... I guess we could also start the Kent User Group.... Let me know if your near me a need a little help....

It's been a few years since I was asked for ID in a pub , my first programming job was machine code programming on a PDP 11..... It was this post and the lake of response to it that made me think if the Pine Tracker idea.I work in London, so maybe London should be the location of the first UK Pine User Group meeting.

Ha! The Pine Tracker idea is great - I understand that you exchanged PMs with Lenny re its implementation on his site? About the group meetup I suggest waiting a little so that all backers receive their boards and some of the first regular orders get out the door. How bout you start a thread about it in social networking? : http://forum.pine64.org/forumdisplay.php?fid=31 My favourite pub in London: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.5104707,-0.123742,3a,75y,140.28h,84.67t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sj2OEmV5A6OQJuDTPNbc8Ng!2e0!7i13312!8i6656 RE: Anyone near Gravesend, Kent, UK need help ? - frewind - 05-13-2016 (05-13-2016, 04:34 AM)Luke Wrote: The Pine Tracker idea is great - I understand that you exchanged PMs with Lenny re its implementation on his site? Yep, I'll follow up this weekend with him, I've got some code working as a prototype, so will discuss any hosting restrictions he has.

Think Lenny has been quite busy with work and finishing off the tutorials for the site. Yea, I think the thread is a good idea - lets see how many people are interested to make the trip/ live nearby. Drop by on IRC if you can - would like to chat. Cheers! |
