Hi,

First of all, thanks to longsleep, lenny, and others for their work to provide working images for the pine64.

Now running the pine64+ 2GB with the wifi/BT module. After several trials, both latest debian-mate and ubuntu-mate seems to work fine after I changed the HDMI cable from 1m to 0.5m.
The 1m cable was only working with longsleep 20160507-1 image, and always failed to output the HDMI signal with the newest kernel Undecided
The 0.5m seems to be fine with the latest images :-)

I have a question regarding the capabilities of the wifi module: can I connect to the pine64 through wifi from a phone and share the pine ethernet connection or are the module capabilities limited to connect the pine64 to already existing wifi networks?
I would like to set the 1st option, if possible, in order to connect my phone through wifi to the pine64 that is already wired connected...

Thanks in advance for any help and advice!
Cheers!
