I've been trying to revitalize this device for several weeks now, but really strange things happen. I use my own Ubuntu 12.04 rfs running unity. The only 3d accelerated kernel providing me internet access (asix) is jjhmod's from here:<br />http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?5161-Updated-kernel-and-MicroSD-image-for-rk3066-ubuntu&p=69513&viewfull=1#post69513 <br />It boots all right every time I flash this kernel no matter how hot my stick was.<br />However, this source is not available for tweaking, and also, 3.0.36 should provide better performance. And so I tried Galland's kernels (never managed to get his 720p to boot, and did get 3.0.36 to boot - sort of - with some really weird gui issues). Then I tried olegk0's 3.0.36 kernel (link provided on his github), and it is providing by far the best performance, same as jjhmod boots up at any time no matter what, however it doesn't provide internet access. But when I compile this same kernel from source (adding just asix support), it stalls same as Galland's 720p. It seems that current Oleg's source is for his experimental kernel (3.0.36_exp), rather than plain 3.0.36 one. I have some reason to believe that thermal issue was less pronounced with oleg's plain kernel, since when I reboot to recovery without sdcard inserted it gets me to initramfs. Upon inserting sdcard, I can execute: "exec switch_root -c /dev/console /mnt/root /sbin/init.sysvinit" which then mounts the rfs all right to gui. But when I repeat the same with my compiled kernel, it stalls the same way again. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I then tried justintime4tea's installation without success. In desperation I tried olegk0's 3.0.8+ kernel with the Picuntu 4.5 RFS and found that the combination worked fine, booting first time every time and running dependably. The Picuntu official (ug802recovkernel.img) kernel also behaves solidly and allows a wider range of possible cpufreq's. Using 3.0.8+ kernels I was able to get WiFi working with both internal chip and USB dongle but performance was pathetic in both cases so instead I am using a USB/RJ45 (Asix) adapter which works well in combination with a cheap (A$22) WiFi repeater/range extender that has an RJ45 port. Can't help but be impressed by how sweetly the RK3066 can support the normal productivity apps (web browsers, LibreOffice etc).Lloyd Seatonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773467969314612736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6487105202596390783.post-80845111967059793292014-01-04T18:14:43.982+01:002014-01-04T18:14:43.982+01:00cpufreq Governor Algorithms

Six governors are listed (some with bizarre names) but I have been unable to find any documentation about their operating algorithms in order to make a reasoned selection.<br />2. Although my machine has been operating at its maximum allowed cpufreq (816 MHz) for many hours, cpufreq-info indicates that it has been at 1.61 GHz for 100% of the time.<br />3. Thanks for adding 126 MHz to the list of possible cpufreqs. If only I can find a governor that knows how/when to use low cpufreqs.<br />4. Without compiling one's own kernel, is there any way for the user to specify the cpufreq to be used during boot?<br /><br />Many thanks again.<br />Lloyd Seatonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773467969314612736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6487105202596390783.post-16885223013628105732014-01-04T12:59:41.554+01:002014-01-04T12:59:41.554+01:00I am of your view, and even went as far as adding ...I am of your view, and even went as far as adding a new lower power frequency for the CPU (126 MHz). Try cpufreq-info to check how long is your stick running at each freq.<br /><br />However in your case there is at least one further problem: the MK808 is the cheapest stick because it doesn't have a PMIC (Power Management IC) so that all components run at the highest voltages (for 1.6 GHz) even at the lowest frequency (126 MHz), causing all that heat, no matter how low the frequency.<br /><br />With a PMIC: lower freqs run at a lower voltage, meaning much less heat.<br />Try setting conservative CPU governor to diminish that disadvantage a bit.Gallandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01766730761074080091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6487105202596390783.post-45426459494604213332014-01-04T03:28:59.832+01:002014-01-04T03:28:59.832+01:00Thermal Management Measures

Disable the screensaver - the picture may seem "cool" but it will probably cause your CPU temperature to rise and may cause the device to stall.<br />2. After installing cpufrequtils (sudo apt-get install cpufrequtils), do use the sudo cpufreq-set -u 816000 command if you expect CPU load to be high for extended periods of time.<br />3. Instead of adopting the dual-boot mode of operation (which allows Android to preheat the CPU) you can use Finless Bob's Reboot app (1.7c ROM) to Reboot To Recovery which causes all subsequent boots to go directly to the recovery partition.Lloyd Seatonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773467969314612736noreply@blogger.com
