/dev/spidev0,0 on the Rock64 - Does anyone know how to enable it?
#2
It seems that there is no solution except using another distro and experimenting, which will surely create other problems for us around liquid investigations

And even then, I have no idea how it will work. Dammit, is it really so hard to get an 08/15 eInk display run on advanced arm64s except raspberry?


So if you come here with the same question about spidev on rock64 as I did, there is no solution until someone tells you specifically otherwise for rock64.
Don't search further, because I've asked here, on github, reddit, stack overflow, irc, ...  and after more than a month no helpful answers, just redirects and complaints about wrong phrasing for the question...

Yes, I know everyone works her for free and for their own purpose. So do I: Spent half a year lobbying to give this platform a chance for a project supposed to help investigative journalists around the globe which otherwise would just run on intel as everything else. 

Occam's razor tells me this is a chicken and egg problem: The hardware seems to be missing use cases which causes a lack of knowledge how to use the hardware. If you want to just run eInk displays or anything ales, go the way of the raspberry pi.So I have to wait till raspberry pi finally gets to 2 or 4 gb and usb 3 since that was that is the critical demand for li.
