Cubieboard2 - Almost there...

Postby mashman » 11 Feb 2015, 12:18

Hi Team,

I've semi-successfully ported Rune to the . ;)

See my debug log .

I'm still missing spotify and upnp/dlna as i don't really have interest in them but they shouldn't be too hard to complete.

I followed a mix of the and the from the git pages. Many of the binaries from the Cubox git page worked for me as the Cubieboard is the same armv7 architechure. Many others did not and I used various methods to get them working.

The system is up and running but it appears to be a little unstable. Skipping tracks seems to freak it out and it becomes all crackly. After that it freezes and i have to hit stop and play to get it going again. If anyone has any tips to iron our the bumps, that would be ace.

The next big step will be getting a Spdif output from this, anyone got any tips? I believe i have to build the module into it but i'm not sure about converting the i2s into a usable/stable PCM stream.

I'd be happy to share what i learnt if people are interested. Where is the cookbook development happening? i can see a lot of simplfication there.

Also, am i in the right subforum for this?

cheers,

mm

aha, righto.

I tried that but it didn't work with just the image so i suspected it was the bootloader as other people have built images this way.

anyhow....

I could not get the HDMI video out to work but i do have a TTL cable so i've copied the output from that.



It looks like the ethernet module is not available within this one. I belive the cubietruck has a gigabit ethernet where as the cubieboard2 only has 10/100. Perhaps they are different drivers. Suffice to say, this probably the same issue with the HDMI.

Interested to hear your thoughts/suggestions.

cheers,

mm
