Caffeine<p>I recently received my <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/pine64" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pine64</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/pinetabv" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pinetabv</span></a>. Going to make a couple of videos on it. I want to publish a tutorial for batch 1 owners on flashing the new test firmware as it requires a new uboot image to be flashed onto the SPI chip. </p><p>One major thing I've noticed is that the SOC is highly dependent on the GPU. It cannot handle rendering using software as the CPU is very weak. It is very usable when the desktop is accelerated, web browsing is snappy. </p><p>I didn't manage to get the cameras to work, I noticed that there are some cobbled together scripts to get them to work, but that was unsuccessful. I did get display out to work fine though, as seen in the image.</p>
