RETRO GAMING: UPDATED RECALBOX FOR THE RK3399 ROCKPRO64

[cybergrimes]

I'm looking at ordering a rp64 with Roshambo case-- would the SSD cartridge accessory work with this release of Recalbox?

thanks!

@Mrfixit2001
Thank you for making this.
Would it be possible to get a verson that is updated to kodi 18.5 or above?
The reason I ask is that a bug fix for for kodi when using mysql was relased into verison 18.5.
Thank you.

One question that comes to my mind, would it be possible to install APT on the system?
My goal is to better control the fan (based on temp), because on/off it's ok but while it's quite noisy when on. I know it can be lowered in /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0/pwm1, but would be good to have it automated.

I don't think this will take too much CPU: https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=6953

What do you think?

@Mrfixit2001 I see you have a new Dragonblaze image on your git.
Thanks for all your hard work man, can’t wait to try it out !

I've seen the new retrobox 6.0 beta at https://github.com/mrfixit2001/recalbox-...p/releases
and I wonder which version to install on the RockPro64?

It shows two version which could be right (rk3399 based):
 -hardrock
- pinebookpro
Hardrock is a cost down rockpro64 (no PCI & usb C),
while the pinebookpro also has a rockpro64 variant with additional laptop hardware.

I have a roshambo box, and like to use the harddisk later on, so that  might hint to the pinebookpro image.

Regards Paul

There should be a build specific to the Rockpro64 under assets on the link that you posted.

Many thanks to Mrfixit since I know a ton of work has gone into this! 

I am having a problem where after Recalbox has been idle for an hour or so, it loses the wifi connection.  I have to go into Network Settings, turn Wifi off and then hit Close.  Then I go back into the menu and turn it back on and it works again (or I can just reboot and it will automatically connect).  My wifi signal is strong so I don't think that is the problem.  Is there a Linux command that I can run that will force it to periodically check the connection and keep it alive or any other ideas for how to fix this?  Thank you!

Put it as an issue on his git and Maybe he can patch it in his next rc.
I hear on the grapevine that Mr.F is moving to Bacotera to help develop the Rockchip releases. I’m not sure if this is going to affect his work on Recalbox
