    It works on mainline. Not sure for legacy.

    cibomato reacted to Igor in Touch display for cubietruck?   
    I have two touchscreen displays in the lab. Both works with Cubietruck in plug and play fashion. Check download page for details: https://www.armbian.com/cubietruck/ Similar will also work and there are many others, but for some you might need to do some R&D/tinkering.

    cibomato got a reaction from Igor in update not working   
    Hi Igor,
     
    thanks for your answer. Upgrade to Xenial didn't work either but now I've set up a whole new system image.
     
    Cheers,
    Jochen

    If you still have a running system, than you don't need to use that procedure but directly:
    apt-get install linux-image-next-sunxi linux-headers-next-sunxi linux-firmware-image-next-sunxi apt-get install linux-trusty-root-cubietruck apt-get install linux-u-boot-next-cubietruck

    cibomato reacted in change commit setting when using hdd?   
    For a normal HDD the defaults are fine. For a SSD it's recommended to add "noatime" and "commit=600" mount options. The "discard" is not recommended, and fstrim should be used instead.

    cibomato got a reaction from jtaparicio in cubietruck hangs at boot with debian-3.8-wheezy-4.0.4   
    GOT IT !!!
      It was the f***ed-up rtc indeed! Let me explain:   I simplified my experiment from above:   - installed debian-3.8-wheezy-3.4.107 --> ok (eth0 is ok, ping heise.de works) - survives reboot / halt and power-on / halt and dis-/reconnect power --> everything ok   Then upgrade to kernel 4.0.5 as described in your faq and then: - reboot    --> System boots till login screen (!!!) but eth0 isn't set up! No ping possible! dmesg | grep rtc 2085-06-25 (NOT ok) date Fr 20. Mai 13:37:52 CET 1949 (NOT ok)
    hwclock --show hwclock: The Hardware Clock registers contain values that are either invalid (e.g. 50th day of month) or beyond the range we can handle (e.g. Year 2095).
      So, all date/time and clocks are wrong! Now I've set the correct date manually: date -s "25 JUN 2015 21:00:10" date ok!
     
    But hwclock / rtc is still going wrong:
    hwclock --show (NOT ok)
     
    So, I've now set hwclock to system date via:
    hwclock --systohc --localtime And voilà:
    hwclock --show  --> ok (!)   reboot --> eth0 comes up !!!! ping ok! date --> ok hwclock --show --> ok   halt and power on date : ok ping ok   halt power dis-reconmnect --> ok   Then I removed sdcard, copied debian-4.0-wheezy-4.1 on it, put it back in and reset   And.................. Tatataaaaaaa, it doesn't complain about rtc, it recognizes eth0 and boots normally!   Repeated that with new installation of  debian 3.9-jessie-4.0.5, also works like a charm!     I'm happy!   Hope, that this is helpful for you other guys, too!!!
