BSP Linux woes, early adopter information and a poll

I've written a script to apply the patched ALSA config file which enables the speaker output. You can either download the script and run it on a machine offline (remembering to make the script executable in order to run it), or if you have internet access on your machine, download and run it directly:

Code:

sudo -i
bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pfeerick/pine64-scripts/master/pinebook/no-speaker-fix.sh)

But that isn't out yet, is it... so or was this (and other fixes) in the image released on the 25th? A changelog is really needed for the images in order to work why download a new one.

The most recent kernel patch brings the hz refresh rate from 56hz to 63hz. 
While it doesn't have a 'real' impact on the PBs performance, it sure does 'feel' smoother. 
You can upgrade your current image using the available scripts like so 

Code:

sudo ./pine64_update_kernel.sh 0.5.5
sudo ./pine64_update_uboot.sh 0.5.5
sudo ./pine64_update_package.sh 0.5.5

I felt some flickering in PB11 and returned to 0.5.4

flickering ? I haven't experienced anything of the sort and I have been trying it out for the past few hours. Perhaps I missed something ? When does the screen flicker - generally when working in the desktop, when opening an application, when watching a movie in SMPlayer/ VLC, etc ? (I tried all the above, no flickering on my end).
