OS

What OS is ROCK Pi E running?

Currently we have Debian Buster, Ubuntu Bionic, etc, running on ROCK Pi E.

Can I ssh to ROCK Pi E running official Debian/Ubuntu?

Yes, you can. The ROCK Pi E is shown as rockpie.local in your local network. Check out the Using SSH page.

Where is the Radxa APT sources list?

Some Bluetooth devices are discovered, but failed to connect to them on ROCK Pi E?

One of the reason is the weak signal. To gain a stronger signal, you need an antenna attached to the antenna socket on board.

The reason is the public key used before is expired. You can execute the following command to get the new available.

sudo apt-get install -y wget
export DISTRO=buster-stable
wget -O - apt.radxa.com/$DISTRO/public.key | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update
