I do not wish to make this too political. But I do often get the question if we can trust all the images from board makers security wise. I personally try many images. I only use Hardkernel images on my Odroids. On my NVIDIA Jetson Nano I of course use the image from NVIDIA since it's got all the goodies. But on all other boards I use Armbian. Either official Armbian, or Balbes Armbian. I wanted to hear your thought about this.

Hello, in a Overlay (compatible = "simple-panel-dsi";) I have the following proerties: reset-gpios = <&gpio8 3 1>; /* GPIO8_A3 */ reset-delay-ms = <10>; enable-delay-ms = <60>; ... in the panel-simple.c driver File I can find the properties "reset-delay-ms", "enable-delay-ms" - but not the "reset-gpios" property. Even though the reset at GPIO8_A3 is working correctly. I also had no success to find this property in another file... so I'm very confused about where or in which driver / include is this property defined/specified? I also have tried to search "reset-gpios" in all files with grep, see below, but I could not find a related …

Anybody know a way to reset board (OPI PC) immediatly not going through shutdown process? I'm already logged in (ssh session). I've overwritten SD card by mistake, whole fs has gone, and I cant perform reboot or shutdown command (not found) :/

I just released a new C library for communicating with those inexpensive 4-digit 7-segment LED displays: https://github.com/bitbank2/tm1637 They can run on 3.3V or 5V and draw between 1 and 15mA depending on the brightness setting. I purchased mine from an AliExpress vendor for 68 cents each with free shipping. They use a custom 2-wire communications protocol and must be "bit-banged" from 2 GPIO pins. In my demo, I assign pins 38 and 40 on my Orange Pi Lite.

Maybe someone does know the old/historical SAM (Software Automatic Mouth) speech synthesizer for the Commodore 64? Today I did found the github-page with the source-code and compiled it on my Orange Pi R1 - using armbian For compiling the default SDL-version I had to install the 2 additional packages with apt - libsdl1.2-dev - libsdl1.2debian before SAM did compile on armbian. I also did try libsdl2-2.0.0 (and -dev), but this didnt worked well while compiling The souce-code could be found at: https://github.com/s-macke/SAM Hear here, how this OLD speech synthesizer sounds https://www.youtu…

hello and good evening Armbian-experts, Can I use GitHub as free unlimited cloud storage? well i guess no btw: I have found out the following: https://help.github.com/articles/what-is-my-disk-quota/ https://help.github.com/articles/about-storage-and-bandwidth-usage/ **conclusion:** well - i guess that the github folders are public unless to pay for service? **but wait:** What about Bitbucket: this seems to be a good idea - Bitbucket has free private repos. love to hear from you

Hi all, I'm running DietPi on an Orange Pi Zero 3 (H618, sunxi64), which repackages the Armbian current-sunxi64 kernel. I use a USB DVB-T2 dongle (HanfTek Astrometa RTL2832P, VID/PID 15f4:0131) with tvheadend for over-the-air TV. After a routine update the dongle stopped working entirely, and I tracked the root cause down to missing kernel modules. ## Problem Starting from kernel 6.18.x (package linux-image-current-sunxi64 version 26.05.0-trunk-dietpi1 and all subsequent builds through dietpi5), the following modules are absent from the kernel package: - dvb_usb_v2 - dvb-usb-rtl28xxu - dvb_core …

Hi! I am using armbian nightly image on my Orange Pi PC 2. Need I every time unpack a new build to the memory card to keep system up to date, or there is enought to make upgrade with apt? I mean will I get all the same updates as on fresh images from the armbian's repository?

The download page of armbian has a pretty good UI. I am interested to know how this page is generated, is there a php backend generating the directory listing? Or, is it a static html with bootstrap? link: https://dl.armbian.com/rockpi-e/

Hi We've made a patch for the current a64 megous 5.10 kernel which enables writing to the 2K SID/Efuse security area of the A64/R18 processor. Our initial investigations have found that the A64 doesn't seem to match the tables found in the SID Register Guide, however we've proceeded to perform various write tests and are presenting our results here for anyone that may found it useful in further development. There shouldn't be any issues using the same patch in the 5.14 kernel, as the driver code is still the same. The patch won't be pushed upstream, and is for dev purposes only, as the original intend of the driver is to be read-only. (This is EFUSE area …

I am trying to keep the Rock64 I have running on Armbian 10 Buster Version running Home Assistant in a Docker container running 24 hrs a day 7 days a week. It seems like it the OS goes into s sleep mode or power savings mode and I can not keep it up running 24 hrs a day. When it is up and running works very good but is there any settings in the OS that I can access from terminal (no running any gui or desktop) that I can invoke to keep it up and on line all the time?

Hey I managed to get the WiringOP libraries to build with the Python WiringPi libraries on my OPI One. I wrote up a quick gist and made a dinky fork to save some people some time: Orange PI WiringPi-Python Gist PS: Igor, TKaiser, and other contributors. Armbian is a really great distro. I'm very grateful for all your hard work.

After being frustrated with the lack of accurate information regarding how to overclock Armbian systems I have decided to create a YouTube tutorial so I can provide a more comprehensive guide to what I consider to be the correct process to overclock a processor in a more universal way so that it won’t matter which processor your using or kernel your running. link to video will follow.

If there are any people out there proficient in c and assembly we should all commit some time to improving the lima driver, the benefits of having an open source user space driver for the mali gpu are too high to pass up, i plan to devote two of my three sbc's to this task, one with the mali400 the other mali450, there is already considerable information on the 400 in the git repo, i know that i alone cannot do this so please look into it search lima driver on google.

Hi all, This is my first post after reading all the good work this community has done. My goal is to create a cheap cluster of ARM boards. I started with the RPI3 but that's getting expensive real quick and the board isn't that good performance wise. So I started looking for different, cheaper boards but it still wouldn't be cheap enough if you plan to run 30-40 of them. So I started looking at older Smartphones with OpenCL support and came to the Samsung Galaxy S4 (The Exynos version). It is an older phone but once was one of Samsungs flagships and still offers good performance for what I want. I know the Exynos 5410 was used on the Odroid XU, so in my opinio…

Hi Is it possible install Armbian to any kind of smartphones, for example based on MTK6580 CPU

as Info: differences to V1.0 : http://wiki.friendlyarm.com/wiki/index.php/NanoPi_NEO2#Hardware_Change_List - NanoPi NEO V1.1 1711's Audio connector is a 2.54mm 4Pin-header - NanoPi NEO V1.1 1711's Ethernet port is a pin connector. - NanoPi NEO V1.1 1711 has a CVBS output which V1.0 doesn't have - NanoPi NEO V1.1 1711 has two more mounting holes of 1.7 mm in diameter - NanoPi NEO V1.1 1711 has 1.1V/1.3V GPIO voltage regulation and - Popup TF Card Slot and maybe a 1GB RAM option - which will double the cost of the board

Oh and another one: Sinfo doesn't show the frequency of the CPU - to be made working. Why can't emails be sent to operators to be inserted in forum? Bye.

Do any of you ever conformal coat your SBC's with clear nail polish or polyurethane to protect it from moisture to prevent corrosion? I usually coat the boards in my solar lights and they last MUCH longer...usually they die within a few months..the wires or components rusting thru. or silicon coating... like this https://www.amazon.com/MG-Chemicals-Silicone-Modified-Conformal/dp/B07BSK5S7B or acrylic coating...like this https://www.amazon.com/MG-Chemicals-Acrylic-Lacquer-Conformal/dp/B01HPS13SM I have found the nail polish seems to work well...others find it flakes off

Orange Pi Plus 2E, Armbian 21.02.1 Buster I can use Ethernet OR WLAN but not both connections at the same time. To use WLAN I have to disconnect the ethernet cable. Do you have any idea to solve this issue? Thanks

i have an orangepi plus2e, and i cant find mupen64plus, i can find data and plugins, but i cant find the main package, i tried installing other packages wich might contain it but no luck. are there other repos to add? or do i have to compile it?

First and foremost, I appreciate everything I've seen come from Armbian, back from when it was being "hosted on an OrangePi" to update after update of newly released boards to expanding to include this Forum. Thanks, Igor and other contributors. What you're doing is awesome. Anyways, I'm starting to find the Forum to be kind of hard to navigate, threads are pretty jumbled and topics kind of globbed together. I was just wondering why that is, if there's plans to smooth out those edges, etc..? Or is it just me? Don't get me wrong, I'd rather have a medium to go to than nothing at all. Just looking for a little insight into the plans for the look and functionality of thi…

Hi, I have a question regarding standard DNS server entry in resolv.conf: The Google DNS 8.8.8.8 is at the top followed by the one supplied by my DHCP service. That way the Google server will be queried first, which I think is wrong, considering privacy implications. Why is it hardcoded anyway? As I understand it, it comes from /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head? this should not include anything. Would be nice If somebody could clarify why it is implemented that way. Thanx

armbian uses mainline kernel for many boards, but it has dts files that mainline linux doesn't. Where are dts files? Why does mainline linux lack many of dts files that armbian has? The same questions are asked about mainline u-boot, too.

Hi, my rpi 4 with 4GB ram is now on my desk but I cannot find armbian for it: looking at github build repo I do not see any file regarding raspberry pi in general. So... is anyone interested to help me to work on it? Is there an armbian interest in having a Raspberry PI build? Why historically I cannot see any sign of interested in those boards? Please... I know of all of their HW limitations... but they sell millions of boards each year... it is clear that some million people out there find them useful so we (as community) should to deliver an armbian build for this SBC.

Hi again, For a dedicated digital audio system (squeezebox) I would like to set up my Pine64 board with a preemptible kernel. I have been trying to use the procedure from https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_Build-Preparation/ to build a patched 3.10.104 kernel using the RT patch from: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/3.10/ patch-3.10.104-rt117 patch set The patches are applied successfully by the script, but break a number of things so the kernel doesn't compile. A number of the problems are linked to ip tunnelling, which I simply removed from the config as my system won't need them, but now I'm hitting: MO…

Hi guys . Im new on this, but I just install armbian on my orangePI litle and after wifi connect with my router the wifi icon disappear. how i canfix this . Thanks for any help.

First post here... apologies in advance for any questions that might sound dumb. My plan: buy Android TV boxes and install Armbian to run browsers and remote control using AnyDesk. I chose Android TV boxes - everything is complete and contained in a small box + very cheap. For £35 for example, I can get with power supply - with 2GB RAM - not sure about processor though. - Should I consider other options? Like Orange Pi? I've got a 3rd generation Raspberry Pi - that is so poor for speed, chokes on one or 2 browser tabs. (I haven't tried Armbian - I will be doing shortly.) - Need recommended hardware. Whether it's an…

Hi all, I'm trying to download the multitool for write flash images in rk3229 tv box, but the links is down: https://users.armbian.com/jock/rk322x/multitool.img.xz Anyone have the file saved, could please send to me? Thanks.

Hello guys and girls, I'm new around here, looking for a board to power my network storage needs. Up until now I've been running a 2TB USB3 Seagate Expansion connected to a ASUS AC68U router and things were just fine until free space started to be a problem. Recently I "inherited" a 2TB USB 2 Seagate Expansion which I was thinking of putting to good use. Some other 2.5" SATA HDD's might come my way in the future so I was thinking of taking a stone of the router and building a small NAS. The main usage will be SMB served sequential operations involving video files (daily) and occasional backups. The current numbers stay around 25-30 MB/s writ…

Please help, I've tried everything.

<prompt> "Talk to me about it." <claude> Good question, because the honest answer has layers, and most of the "8K" in the ads lives in only one of them. What's real: the decoder. The RK3588's video engine (RKVDEC2) really does decode 8K: HEVC and VP9 at 8K@60, H.264 and AV1 at 8K@30, in silicon. That's not marketing. It's the same block Deep Ink talks to for our 4K HDR work, and 8K is just more macroblocks through the same pipe. So "8K video decoding" is a true statement about the chip. Where it thins out: the display. The VOP2 display controller's big port (VP0) tops out at 8K@30 or 4K@120, and here's the nugget: those are the same number. …

Just a simple little question - I've moved my system to SATA, but there are still full OS on the SD Card: ~# ls /media/mmcboot/ bin boot dev etc home lib lost+found media mnt opt proc root run sbin selinux srv sys tmp usr var I would like to remove unused stuff to make some space.

I have an Orange Pi PC2 and burned a SD Card with Armbian for it. The device boots to a Login window wit a single input field. OK the docs say the root password is 1234 so likely 'root' is what I enter into the login field. I enter that, I then get a password prompt to I enter 1234 and press enter. I then get 'Login incorrect or forbidden by policy' !! Can anyone give me a clue?

Background: I'm using Orange Pi Zero for data I/O. I'm using https://github.com/zhaolei/WiringOP to manage the GPIO stuff. So I've been writing programs in C/C++ using the simple nano editor via SSH to my Orange Pi Zero. I start by doing all code edit within Atom.io on my laptop/desktop computer. (I ALWAYS want a record of what I'm changing... ) I keep track of code changes via Git and the Atom content on my laptop/desktop. When it comes time to push code to the Orange Pi, I SSH login to the orange pi: Delete my old workingCode.c file (erasing big blocks of code within Nano is a pain in the neck) Create the file again via Nano. Copy paste the new c…

Hello ! I’ve been trying for the past few days to make the Banana Pi M3 work with hzeller/rpi-rgb-led-matrix LED Library. But it doesn’t.

Dear all, who can help me to understand why there are these files ? Is mandatory to install it? thank you a lot

I noticed in last raspberry pi geek (DE) in board comparison use Armbian as prefer os for cubieboard https://www.oboom.com/82BRP4U9/eere416.pdf

about COCKPIT in opposite to eg. Webmin does Cockpit edit just like you would in the configuration files. So it doesn't matter if you do any changes via SSH or via Cockpit. It is pretty neat to view your devices, see whether they run smooth or if one is going mad If you grab it from their website you get the latest and greatest (updates pushed weekly) but the easy way is: apt update && apt-get install cockpit (available since Ubuntu 16.04, needs systemd). I got Version 151. On the tinker board mainline the download was only about 1750Kb, the server side is written in C and in your browser it runs with Javascript and such. Just lik…

On the main armbian.com page are three boards depicted as "Popular downloads". I was just wondering, what are the most popular downloads, perhaps the top five downloads over the past month? Might be interesting to someone looking for a popular and well supported board. Besides Raspberry Pi, that is...

Hi all, recently searching on how to connect raspberry pi 3.5 inches TFT display (wave share 's clone) .And lucky for me, i have success to make the display show up the console( according to this post ) Sorry for my bad English Thanks for reading this

Apologies for opening a new thread - the thread that mentions it that I wanted to reply to is closed. Does anybody have the pin-out and/or datasheet of the AXP8036?

What you guys think of the Unisoc SC9863A ? 8 cores arm with integrated LTE modem, getting mainline support. This unisoc look like a company like mediatek... But the point is, the the modem is opensource or uses a blob ?

ubuntu announced 10 years of support for version 18.04. This is due to the willingness to support devices and iot platforms. Is therefore armbian based on 18/04 will be supported for 10 years?

I'm only just getting started with this project. So far I have gotten a lot of help from some great people and looking to get further along with this project as time goes on. My main goal is to turn the tinkerboard into a linuxcnc control system with a drop in SDcard/EMMC image(s). The images will be preloaded with everything needed to setup a cnc machine for different control systems such as GPIO, ETHERNET, SPI depending on one's choice or needs for control. The gpio will provide direct step/dir, end stops, router power control signals, etc.... the normal cnc machine control logic one would expect when using a parallel port. Ethernet and SPI will be options for anyone u…

Hello, i'm trying to make Arch work on my H3, it boots to uboot, loads fine and says RAM size and reads /boot/boot.scr, but when it tries to ext4load something it gives a error of ` ** fs_devread read error - block` and ` ** No partition table - mmc 0`, everything after `321 bytes read in 24 ms (33.2 KiB/s)` loads by arrays of pixels, i never seen these before on Armbian, H3Droid or any other img file. [ EDIT ] Turns out, U-Boot defaults to 400000hz on SD card while saying its mode is SD High Speed (50MHz), i still cant fix the issue...

Hello, There is a software I ported to armhf (32bits), running very well on a Raspberry Pi3 (probably Pi 2 will do it) and I'd like to know where I could post to obtain feedback for other arm machines ? I can provide it under .deb form, or as pre-installed in a .tar.gz or whatever on demand Thanks in advance for redirecting me if I'm on the wrong place. -- ericb

Hi. Around a month ago, my Rock 3A arrived and I got to playing with it. I noticed that there was a community build configuration for it, so I set up an Armbian build environment and got to building it. The image built without error and before I knew it my device had booted. However, since then, a few changes have been made to the Rock 3A (including receiving a proper Armbian maintainer), and now it seems to be completely broken. This issue seems to be reproducible, with people both being able to boot the board with old images as well as not being able to boot with fresh images. There seems to be some work happening towards fixing u-boot (which seems to be …

Hello all, I'm relying quite heavily on RSS for my news feed. However I can only see two feeds on the armbian forum: New threads and posts. As you can imagine, I get quite a lot of pings for the post feed, and I'm not able to follow previous threads from the New threads feed. Is there more feeds or is it possible to add a feed per thread to the forum?

Hello, after I've read the NAS topic ( http://linux-sunxi.org/Sunxi_devices_as_NAS) and the importance of random I/O performance in the SD card made by tkaiser. I'm here to ask what board can you advise for: During day-time: stream box w/ kodi (resolution 1080) if possible without laggy use During night: running daemon of torrent e.g Trasmission (or NAS server) Never happen that both activities are made in same time. I think that for night-time use it would be recommend use a internal hard disk attached to a SATA port. I don't need high performance of trasmitting data because internet speed here is only ADSL 12Mbps download and 0.8Mbps Upload. The only thing is not …

I've liked the idea of having a little message board that was off the www and only accessible with wireless devices from the neighbors. It would be fine if the wireless were handled by a router and then use an adapter from Gigabit-to-USB port on an H3 device. I was wondering if anyone's tried that or has a favorite home cloud they'd recommend? There are various turnkey LAMP servers that could be installed to Armbian but it's a jungle out there. Messaging, message board, file sharing (or at least a repository), and maybe some kind of camera sharing. The camera sharing is because this is sometimes a dangerous neighborhood, and it'd be a big luxury if one neig…

So i've installed a bigger battery on my cheap A33 tablet. Previously it had a 1700mAh battery (rated for 3000mAh actually) for a 2x1700mAh setup. It works fine and actually works for longer, but the battery percentage is not correct anymore, since it now drops to 5% and stays there for some time until it completely discharges. Does need a special calibration (pmic is AXP223) or will a simple charge/discharge calibrate things ?
