Not sure if this helps at all, but hope so. :) If you have some more concrete example of what you want to achieve (maybe the
docker-compose.ymlthat you are trying to use?) then we can give more specific advice. Also would recommend posting it in our forums, where there's more chance to get feedback and quicker https://forums.balena.io/
if anyone can shed a light on this issue https://forums.balena.io/t/build-kernel-modules-on-ci-servers-for-balenaos/5972 I would appreciate that. Thanks!
@resinio folks, can someone make my post visible again? https://forums.balena.io/t/build-kernel-modules-on-ci-servers-for-balenaos/5972/6
I’ve posted a long log as requested by someone on the team and the Akismet thought it was spam :(
also, the lack of rotate support for Tinkerboard is really a problem for us :( we’re running kiosks as the main devices for Balena, and without rotation, we’re screwed
[Shaun Mulligan (shaunmulligan)] there will definitely be a way to rotate the screen, but will need to find out from ASUS if there is a hardware specific way to do it, otherwise you will need to do it in software via xorg or whatever windows manager your kiosk system uses
and, do it via software, will definitively affect performance
[Shaun Mulligan (shaunmulligan)] it would be worth asking in their forums
looks like it is indeed possible
the kernel has to be compiled with the support for that @shaunmulligan
[Shaun Mulligan (shaunmulligan)] There is a chance it could be enabled in our kernel already, so worth a try. Others you can create and issue on our asus OS repo here https://github.com/balena-os/balena-asus-tinker-board and we can get that compiled in

now I can't login on the host :(
I rebooted it from the portal, removed the local mode and enabled again
and it just fail to boot now
will reflash it
now I just need the freaking rotation to work on it :(
Do I need to install
rpi-update now by myself?
Hi @resinio, I just realized that
balenalib/intel-nuc-alpine-python:3.7-run has Python2 as default, and no python3 installation and balenalib/intel-nuc-alpine-python:3.7.2-run has Python3 as default with a python3 installation. Why the discrepancy? Is this intended? Seems very unintuitive
particularly, eglfs
I’m having troubles with the PI brcm libraries to properly work on balena inside the container
Hi there! I experience some strange issues with the intel-nuc image. I downloaded a development image, installed it on an advantec device (compareable to intel nuc) with ethernet, disconnected ethernet and instead inserted a working SIM. On the device itself I was able to check, that the host os has access to the internet (pinged a couple of servers), though the device is shown as offline in balena.io .
nmcli shows, that supervisor and cellular-modem are connected
Is this a problem of routing in the hostOS?

[Alison Davis Riddell (alisondavis17)] Hi @philippnbg our team is much more active in our forums, if you could post your question there at https://forums.balena.io/; our engineers monitor it every day and will be able to help out quickly!
@resinio any chance we have the DragonBoard supported? https://www.arrow.com/en/products/dragonboard410c/arrow-development-tools or at least any 96Boards
Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 is far supperior than PI and ASUS tinkerboard… we just got a few for test and it is ridiculously fast. Not to mention the quality of the board itself
Or, should we follow this doc https://www.balena.io/os/docs/custom-build/#supporting-your-own-board and use the BSP from here https://www.96boards.org/documentation/consumer/dragonboard/dragonboard410c/build/open-embedded.md.html and build ourselves? Would that still be officially supported by balenaCloud?
@galvesribeiro the best way to ensure production ready support is to work with our team to support the board through our custom device support program. That will ensure new OS releases are tested for compatibility and we ensure things don't break. If you are interested in that please reach out to our sales team.
