minus-square@LinkerbaanlinkEnglish15•edit-26 months agoRockchip processors is where it’s at these days. Every pi alternative runs an RK3566 or RK3568 For true open source it’s gotta be RISCV instead of ARM. Bbut it might be too early days for that.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish8•6 months agoYeah I mean Pine64 produces RISCV boards
minus-square@LinkerbaanlinkEnglish1•6 months agoOh I didn’t know that. I was familiar with Scifive for higher end RiscV stuff, and MilkV for the cheaper and midrange boards.
minus-square@ozymandias117linkEnglish1•6 months agoThe RK3588 is pretty nifty, and is the first Mali GPU (610) where ARM themselves have contributed the firmware upstream and have helped with Collabora with Panfrost development Bleeding edge, still, but kernel 6.10 and Mesa 24.1 have GPU support HDMI TX and DSI/CSI are still in-progress
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish11•6 months agoYes(ish) They are not yet as powerful as RPi. But if you have a low power usecase then yes.

Can you use pine 64 in the same way as a RPi?
Yes(ish) They are not yet as powerful as RPi. But if you have a low power usecase then yes.
Broadly yes, as a “user”.
Anyone used Beagleboards?
