Got my Pine 64 today

[tkaiser]

Alright, so it's understood why tllim has only 38degrees with just using 1 core and for me it's fine my board runs with all cores (also noticable in the rpi(ne)control widget.

In case you're running Linux it's easy to reproduce. Disable/check for longsleep's pine64_corekeeper.sh service and disable it when running (I would suspect there are even crappy Linux OS images out there that miss this service!)

And then simply (as root):

Code:

for i in 3 2 1; do echo 0 >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu${i}/online ; done

(to bring them back replace 'echo 0' with 'echo 1', restart the pine64_corekeeper.sh service or reboot)
