(ARCHIVED) Ubuntu Xenial Image (BSP Kernel)

[jdt]

Okay - will do. Thanks @longsleep. I just installed the image from this thread and updated it. As you noted, it shows the same behavior.

@benpope81 - I was probably a bit defensive. Sorry about that. Moar coffee.

No worries, internet, etc.

I just enabled iSCSI as module (see https://github.com/longsleep/linux-pine6...930310e560) - will be in the next release.

Awesome - thanks. I was just tracking that down and saw the "updated 1 minute ago".

Also hoping to get openvswitch working:

ubuntu@pine64:~$ sudo ovs-vsctl add-br internal
ovs-vsctl: Error detected while setting up 'internal'. See ovs-vswitchd log for details.

You know you rock.

@tllim, why doesn't tapatalk allow me "+1". I mean seriously, delegate, dude. How is everybodies problem, yours?

This is my problem; I want "like", "+1", whatever. Fix it now or I'll sue you for something I haven't yet decided upon but my lawyers will find.

Fingers crossed that this is the right module configuration flag and location to enable openvswitch: https://github.com/longsleep/linux-pine64/pull/20

[longsleep]

Yeah almost. The configuration is created with the savedefconfig target and thus has specific sorting. Anyhow, i enabled that module as well and will include it with the next release.

I've installed this build, resized the filesystem, updated, upgraded, and installed the desktop (all through the serial console) but I can't get any HDMI output. Have tried 3 different monitors, 2 of which were 1920 monitors, tried 2 different HDMI cables, nothing.

The monitors obviously know something is there, it's just a black screen.

In the boot log I get this message, which is worrying:

[FAILED] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules

Could this be my issue? Also failed to set console keymap, but that doesn't sound nearly as serious.

Pine64 1GB with a 64GB class 10 Sandisk SD card (which obviously is good because Ubuntu is running fine).

U-Boot 2014.07-4-pine64-longsleep
Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (GNU/Linux 3.10.65-7-pine64-longsleep aarch64)

Any tips much appreciated...

Longsleep,

I prefer this minimalist approach. It keeps the quick installation process less cluttered and more educational. Stay command line or add the desktop of your choice. I used to do the roughly same with Unix builds on older hardware. Deja vu! (-:

Also, the contents of /usr/local/sbin were very thought out and very helpful. Thank you.

[longsleep]

I have heard that some think that something is wrong with my images as they are so small. Properly compressed and not compromise cluttered is the reason.

@3lliot + something seems wrong with your installation and the kernel you post is not the current one. Try updating it.
