La semana pasada conseguí por fin hacer que la placa #rockpi 4C+ que compré para intentar sustituir las #raspberrypi (que están a precio de angula y con plazos de entrega de meses) arrancaran con #ltsp.

Podéis ver cómo lo hice (espero no haberme olvidado nada) aquí https://github.com/ltsp/ltsp/discussions/829#discussioncomment-6070782

Me faltan un par de detallicos por pulir (redimensionar el tamaño de la imagen) pero en líneas generales creo que reproducible es.

He aprendido un montón de cosas por el camino (qué es #uboot, #pxe_boot y otro buen puñado de cosas), pero me queda muuuuu mal cuerpo al darme cuenta de que lo he hecho prácticamente por fuerza bruta, ensayo y error hasta que ha funcionado... ¡Qué pena no saber bien lo que uno está haciendo!

On di oder jan, la verdad es que la mejora de la Rockpi frente a la Raspberry es espectacular (Bueno, al menos de la 4C+ frente a la 3), puedes usar un navegador normal entre otras cosas... y de precio ya ni hablamos.

Así es que ahora toca adquirir las otras 6 Rockpi y ver si las puedo meter en una buena carcasa IP67 ¡y a muestrear!

If someone has a Rock Pi X (x86) left over, I am interested! The device is currently unavailable for purchase.

Please feel free to share. Thank you. 🙏🏼

Falls hier jemand einen Rock Pi X (x86) uebrig hat, ich habe Interesse! Das Teil gibt es aktuell leider nirgends zu kaufen.

Bitte gerne teilen. Danke. 🙏🏼

The delivery arrived during the week, and I was able to do some tests. But until now, I like this SBC almost the best as a raspberry pi alternative. The features and performance are perfect!

I’ve given up on finding a Raspberry Pi in stock, gonna try to implement OpenPlotter on a Rock Pi 5B. https://openplotter.readthedocs.io/en/latest/description/what_is_openplotter.html #openplotter #rockpi

Ahh that's crap, the SD card snapped in my #radxa #RockPi

I'm unfortunately not surprised, but it shows one of the things you sacrifice with an edge mounted SD card reader like this.

I have two different Arm SBCs, both running #Armbian, both using the same model USB-to-SATA adapter to the same model of spinny disc, both using the uas driver.

The #RockPi 3a constantly was resetting the USB bus (and causing havoc), the Orange Pi 4 hums along nary a problem.

Turns out it was the uas driver, and I had put a quirk in the armbianEnv.txt file to get the Rock Pi 3a stable:

#Debian based #Armbian 22.11 Released With #RISCV 64-bit UEFI Support, New Arm Boards: including #BananaPi M5, #ODROID M1, and #RockPi 4C Plus Arm boards -- on top of the dozens of Arm single board computers already supported by this #Linux distribution. https://bit.ly/3BfeTqK

#introduction

By day I work as a cloud engineer working heavily with both #aws and #gcp technologies.

By night, I like to mess around with my kubernetes cluster of #raspberrypi and #rockpi single board computers or experiment with VMs and GPUs. Like streaming multiple games on VMs on the same computer.

Sometime I play a game or two on a steam deck.

Got the Raspberry Pi Camera V2 to work with the Rock 4 SE. Gstreamer bindings for now. We'll see if I can get it in a Python script.

Next, audio input processing since the Rock 4 SE has mic in

I was able to create a #frankenstein #rockpi install for my #4cplus using the #ubuntu #bootloader and #slackware root #filesystem It worked but was not ideal
This time I'm going to follow this #guide and see what I get https://jamesachambers.com/radxa-rock-pi-4c-plus-ssd-boot-guide/

screwing around with my #rockpi4cplus again .. #pi #rockpi
Getting #nvme boot going is a bit tricky

Talking about Single Board Computers
Due to the current shortage of Raspberry Pi's around the globe, OKdo (https://www.okdo.com/) has started to invest in another Single Board Computer (SBC) called the Rock Pi.

This SBC contains a very similar layout to the Raspberry Pi 3 but has the speed and power of the Pi 4 with extra abilities (see the table further below for more details).

I am being offered
