Wait is armhf Firefox different from the one installed by your Mate install script? That one does not work consistently.

Sure - thats why its the architectures have different names armhf vs arm64.

I am not entirely sure how to install specific versions of FF like suggested here. I will Google it but want to avoid any unexpected gotchas.

Ubuntu is fully multi arch. I think instructions have been posted somewhere in this forum before. Search is your friend.

Thank you for the response. I am off to search. Once I figure it out, I will post the response in a new thread to hopefully help others.

Finally, thank you also for all your hard work on the Pine64 kernel. It is really amazing progress! The latest resolution change functionality in the new kernel was particularly noteworthy from my perspective.

Is there any issue about creating a wifi access point? Options to do it are non selectable grey.

Hi there,

I've managed to install this image and have plex media server running.

I'm trying to mount a 4TB HFSplus drive which I'm currently using with my existing plex media server on a mac mini.

when I tried mounting, i'm getting: mount: unknown filesystem type 'hfsplus'

I noticed in the "**3.10.101-1-pine64-longsleep-41 (20160516)**" changelog that HFS+ support was added but i'm not too sure how do i go about enabling this module.

much help appreciated. thank you in advance!

Something like sudo modprobe hfsplus should do it.

Something like sudo modprobe hfsplus should do it.

Thank you longsleep for your reply and all the hard work.

I tried that command however i'm getting an error below.

Code:

root@pine64:~# modprobe hfsplus
modprobe: FATAL: Module hfsplus not found in directory /lib/modules/3.10.101-0-pine64-longsleep

The image i used was "xenial-pine64-bspkernel-20160507-1"
Has the module been removed in this image, will it be added back or should i grab an older image?

[longsleep]

Your Kernel is too old? Why do you even ask, you clearly found the release notes which say it was added in 3.10.101-1-pine64-longsleep but you are running 3.10.101-0-pine64-longsleep??

Yes, i clearly realized that after trying to enable the module.

I've not done any compiling myself, only grabbed the latest image from the first post. Is it supposed to come with older version of kernel?

Got the image from below site and I believe that's the latest version of the image.

Will there be new images compiled with newer version of kernel or i'll need to compile them myself?

Just run the update scripts. There are plenty of posts in this forum showing how, including the one which lists the release notes for each Kernel. http://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=293

Ok i got it - you installed the lates Xenial image thinking that it also would have the latest Kernel. That is not not always the case as Kernels are released more frequently. From time to time i release a new Linux image - if required - for the Kernel or U-Boot alone i am not doing that, as those can be updated easily.
