Problems with Rock64 stability

[Gustavo A. Díaz]

Hi,

 

I have a Pine Rock64 v2.0 SBC and with the image Buster xfce desktop (I guess this is the right one that mentions here), the board has random freezes and impossible to use. So far the board does work good with Ayufan Debian buster image.

 

Anyone had and idea why? I post here since I need to implement hwaccel so I can use this board as RTSP server using a UVC USB camera (Arducam).

 

Thanks.

Moved out to a separate topic. Rock64 is unsupported, if you do a little search you will know why. In short, because of problems like yours. Do some search in the forums, please.

Yeah ultimately the rock64v2 is an unstable board.    Armbian is using a mainline linux kernel and will have fewer "workarounds" than an ayufan build from a bsp kernel

Hi, I am trying again to back this board, since I can't afford to buy another one...

 

Legaly kernel is impossible to use; keep unstable. Once it crash for the first time, no matter if I reboot, it will keep crashing.

Now, with current kernel this does not happen.

 

The problem is that i need legacy kernel so I can use hwaccel needed for decoding and encoding.
