Hi all! I sadly found that I can't watch my videos. Everything's fine with youtube, nevertheless. But video I tested (h264 + avc1, m4v and avi containers) looks like fast slideshow, and sound is VERY ugly! I've tried to install mali-midgard-dkms, I've failed (see below). What should I do to watch the videos? Convert 'em all to some chosen codec? Add to sources.list kind of "unstable" thing and upgrade? Install another armbian image? Find proper mali drivers and compile it carefully? Please, help! armbianmonitor -u http://ix.io/2mXg __@opi3 ~ # apt-get install mali-midgard-dkms …

Hi, this is not a complaint, just wondering if I am doing something wrong. When I try "any(Pine64,Sopine,Olinuxino-A64,Bananapi-M64)" A64 board with armbian 3.10.x kernel, desktop performance is quite satisfactory. Example: https://dl.armbian.com/_old/pine64/archive/Armbian_5.90_Pine64_Ubuntu_xenial_default_3.10.107_desktop.7z But when I build armbian in docker, both 5.4 and 5.6 kernels, I experience dramatic slowdown on desktop performance, even cursor is moving slowly. Here are armbian monitor logs: http://ix.io/2oW4 and http://ix.io/2oVY Here is how it looks on BPI-m64 as an exam…

hi everyone, I'm running latest Armbian 20.08.1 Buster with Linux 5.8.5-sunxi on a Nanopi Neo Core. I cannot understand why I cant turn GPIOA0 on\off, can't configure it as output.

Since U-Boot v2025.04 works very well on Orange Pi Zero v3 and has a shorter boot process time, if there was a possibility to switch to U-Boot v2504 for Orange Pi Zero V1, I would be grateful, as would probably other users of this SBC Regards

Hello, I'm a newbie an Linux and bananaPI. Actually, i uses an debian wheezy image of Igor's (Bananapi_Debian_2.8_wheezy_3.4.107) with openmediavault and one sata drive. I would like add an sata multiplier on my BananaPI. I find this tuto : http://www.htpcguides.com/rebuild-bananian-kernel-with-sata-port-multiplier-support/ I don't know if this procedure works an the debian image of Igor's ? please confirme me I think the line " git clone https://github.com/Bananian/linux-bananapi.git--depth 1 " isn't good ?

Hi everybody, First I would like to thank you Igor's work.... Excellent!!! I discovered this week your new armbian site. I decided to try wheezy for cubieboard1 but can't startup. Jessie started but never ends LSB raise network interface...... It's my fault? Excuse me i'm not english Regards

Out of curiosity, and according to several articles/posts including this one http://forum.lemaker.org/thread-1847-1-1.html the A20 has support for hardware watchdogs. Has some successfully configured and used the watchdog kernel module sunxi_wdt.ko in a banana / lamobo R1?

Is there any way I can make use of the VDPAU implementation for A20 with the mainline kernel? Or will I have to use the old 3.4 kernel? Thanks Paul

On a previous build (and separate board), I have both wlan0 and wlan1 showing up as wireless interfaces on my OrangePi+ board. I have since upgraded the image on a new board, and now I only see wlan0. The software I've written for the board relies on having both wireless interfaces present, however, I'm not sure how to get the other one to show up. I've performed the apt-get update and apt-get upgrade, and then installed the image to EMMC. I've basically got a fresh image, and I'm unsure what I need to do next in order to get the wireless adapters to show up properly. Can someone help me out? Thank you!

Hi, I have some problem about softAp mode. I am using orangepi+ and, Armbian debian jessie server 5.20version.

Hi, I've installed armbian on my orange pi +2 and trying to build GrandOrgue. It is depending on the wxWidgets library. I've tried searching apt-get without any luck. Any suggestions? Thank you. -Roy

I have an orange pi+ 2e that is being used for pihole. I want to set my pi to use 1 cpu core, disable usb ports and set Ethernet link speed at 100Mb/s etc to reduce consumption however not all the changes will apply at once (see picture attached) If cpu is running at one core and ram at reduced speed, ethernet link speed will still be at 1gbps and the other way round when Link speed is at 100Mbps.

I bought an orange plate zero pi that I requested for a project. The issue is that I can not start the AP mode. I am making use of the hostapd and isc-dhcp-server packages, apparently everything is well configured, I am thinking that the problem is the chip driver of the wireless network. I put some relevant data, from now on thanks. root@orangepizero:~# /usr/sbin/hostapd /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf Configuration file: /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf nl80211: Could not configure driver mode nl80211: deinit ifname=wlan0 disabled_11b_rates=0 nl80211 driver initialization failed. wlan0: interface state UNINITIALIZED->DISABLED wlan0: AP-DISABLED …

Hi all, I'm currently running Armbian 5.36 Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS 4.11.1-sun50iw2. This was / is a local armbian build that I performed a few months ago to resolve an issue that I saw at that time in the network stack that prevented ipsec working correctly. I've performed apt update / apt upgrade since however cat /proc/version still reports the version as that which I manually built back in June. Fast forward to today and I'd like to try out some traffic shaping tc rules but I'm running into some difficulty, which is making me doubt if my kernel has the support needed for iproute2. The following works without any issue to list existing rul…

So I have an application which requires 1Mbps UART and wasted a few days trying to debug my board thinking that was the issue (was working perfect at 115kps), so I decided to scope the UART TX from the orangpi, and of course that signal was not actually working at 1Mbps. Scope is saying that its running at 750Kbps. Did some research and it looks like there is some sort of UART scaling frequency set in the driver, which excludes certain bitrates from running (check here https://github.com/jernejsk/linux/blob/master/drivers/tty/serial/sunxi-uart.c#L356-L381 ) Did some further tests and 460Kbps works fine as well as 1.5Mbps (so its not an issue w…

I use OrangePi R1 with connected RS485-TTL module to UART1 (PG6, PG7). RS485 communicates with a heatpump. Heatpump transmits data to RS485 module and I read and decode the data with a program and make some ACK replies. Everything worked fine for a month till OrangePi Power Adapter died. I have replaced Power Adapter and my program now stopped working. I have already spent couple days debugging. Replaced the cable from the heatpump to RS485-TTL module. Tried to see what is happening on the RS485 line with oscilloscope. Start of the diagram always looks good, but the end is skewed and corrupt. It seems like RS485 tries to send data while it receives and ce…

Hi! I just installed a fresh Armbian_5.14_Lamobo-r1_Debian_jessie_3.4.112 image to my R1. While booting, the system first shows about a page of boot-messages on the Display and then changes to a Out-of-Range Display. Changing console by <Ctrl><Alt><F1>, ...F2,... Fn doesn't help. Accessing the system with PUTTY/ssh works fine. apt-get update/upgrade/reboot won't help. The display does 1280x1024 resolution maximum. Just before I used banian without any problems. What should I do?

I have a BananaPi M1+ running pure-ftpd, it was fine when using Armbian 5.14, but I have a problem after upgraded to Armbian 5.20. Here is the output of the filezilla client : If I disable the firewall by clearing all the iptables rules, filezilla can connect to pure-ftpd without problem.

Hey, after making sure that all packages are current (armbianmobitor upload available at http://sprunge.us/Migh)I still have the problem currently that my three cubietruicks freeze after working 1-3 days. Mostly they are still ping-able, but no "heartbeat led blinking" happens anymore and SSH connect also not possible. The logs simply say nothing. Is there anything knows with uboot 5.23 in case ob unstability? The last uboot I remember that was quite stable was 5.20 ... Can I simply downgrade to that using sudo apt-get install linux-u-boot-cubietruck-next=5.20 or such? Thanks for an advice... Ingo Fischer

Hello, I'm new to this forum and Armbian. I've got an Orange Pi Zero 2+ H5 running the Armbian_5.34.171121_Orangepizeroplus2-h5_Ubuntu_xenial_next_4.13.14 image. It's connected to a device via UART1 using pin 1 for 3.3V, 6 for GND, and 8/10 for TX/RX. I've been trying unsuccessfully to use pyserial in a Python script to read data from the ttyS* devices, but I can't seem to cat anything from them either. I've tried moving the device to a RaspberryPi Zero W and I'm able to read the output from ttyS0 successfully. I did have to run raspi-config to enable the UART on the RPi, but I'm not aware of an equivalent on the OPi. I believe I added the uart1 overlay to my…

Hello. From moment when i flashed armbian to SD card and boot it up on Banana Pi M1, random reboots started to show. Ya'll should know that i'm hosting Plex and Tautulli on that. It's pretty much handling these servers without big problems but i'm constantly getting these random reboots. Well, i looked into /var/log/syslog to see what is happening. It looks like before every booting session there's cron job couple of hours before reboot. Maybe that's the reason? I can post whole syslog here from jan 5 till feb 2.

Hello everyone! I am trying to set up a CSI camera for my Orange Pi win plus (A64). The camera is GC2035 and I have already seen it not easy with latest versions.

I'm using latest armbian with kernel 4.3.3 and got some problem: I have some usb-drives that should be mounted at boot via fstab. But sometimes they are not mounted at boot, after restart they mount normally. Never had problems with same fstab, only with kernel 4.3.3 it sometimes failed to mount. Seen same behaviour with bananian with 4.3-kernel, so maybe it has to do something with this kernel? Maybe some usb modules didn't load before mounting fstab? But i'm linux noob, so i dont know what i can do... Some suggestions?

The Wifi funktion was rather poor and deteriorating, so I ordered a new OpiZero-Plus2-H3, same physical shape and connectors (I thought). Now the -P2 Armbian image 5.30 for the new board loaded perfectly, the Wifi function is really improved due to better hardware. The python part of the code works (still) perfectly. Only (most of) the gpio-functions of my project do not work any more with the new board attached. I use PA07, PA13 and PA14 for bit-bang gpio and a 1-wire sensor via the kernel. I modified the OPi-P2 fex file, shipped wit…

I have spent two days on LIRC. I am going to give up if no one can help me on this. My software conf are ARMBIAN 5.38 stable Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS 4.14.18-sunxi and ARMBIAN 5.35 user-built Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS 4.13.16-sunxi # cat /etc/lirc/hardware.conf # /etc/lirc/hardware.conf # #Chosen Remote Control REMOTE="None" REMOTE_MODULES="sunxi_cir" REMOTE_DRIVER="default" REMOTE_DEVICE="/dev/lirc0" REMOTE_SOCKET="" REMOTE_LIRCD_CONF="" REMOTE_LIRCD_ARGS="" #Chosen IR Transmitter TRANSMITTER="None" TRANSMITTER_MODULES="" TRANSMITTER_DRIVER="audio_alsa" TRANSMITTER_DEVICE="hw@48000,r" TRANSMITTER_SOCKET="" TRANSMITTER_LIRCD_CONF="" TRANSMITTE…

Hi i did some comparison of NanoPi NEO Kernel 3.4 (Jessie) and kernel 4.4 (Stretch). - Looks like the temperature limit controlling of 4.4 is not working as good as 3.4 (on 4.4 Kernel the CPU reaches more than 85 °C!) - GPIO (wiringPi) has less performance (-4%) - SPI has better performance (10%) - CPU performance is ~6% better (nbench, maybe the newer compiler) - consumption is besser on Kernel 3.4, especially on halt state I did a fork for wiringpi Library to make it work on Armbian Jessie and Stretch https://github.com/mstroh76/WiringNP (so far only for NEO)

Hello I have an armbian on my Orange Pi PC2 Could you tell me, how I can detect in console is audo jack is plugged in or not?

Hello, I`m used armbian build script (from ) and got image without module tv. Why it missed module tv (video/sunxi/disp2/tv)? There it bug or legacy kernel doesn't support cvbs output? How can i add this module to image?

Hello all, I have a 5" waveshare touch screen connected (touch screen cable) to an orange pi one through usb with a separate power cable for screen, and it works fine. but when I used the (microusb to microusb cable) for the touch it doesn't work.. is there any way to make it work!? because i need the usb for something else and i can't use a usb hub for it's too big for my application. Regards,

I downloaded the armbian focal image for NanoPi NEO/Core board, and it works great. (Specifically, Armbian_20.11.10_Nanopineo_focal_current_5.10.4.img, so it's a few months old.) I'd like to start creating my own image, and I'm all setup to do that, but what I'd love to do is start from the .config file(s) used to create the image I'm using. That way I have a known base configuration from which to start modding. Are those available anywhere to download? Thanks!

Good day Armbian Forums! I'm having some trouble with builds of Armbian (up to and including 21.08.6 | kernel 5.10.60-sunxi) seeing wireless access points that are configured to channels 12 & 13 on my Orange Pi Zero Plus2 boards (H3 + 256mb RAM). Specifically, the default Android image (a generic Chinese-language Android multimedia system) that's loaded onto these boards can see and connect to access points that have been set to all channels (1-13) successfully, but any Armbian image I have tried fails to see anything (and subsequently cannot connect) to routers on channels 12 & 13. Due to the nature of this, I believe it may be a region setting or dri…

I have Armbian 22.02 Bullseye installed on my Orange Pi zero. The wifi connection worked fine at first, but after a few reboots the device 'wlan0' seems to no longer exist. In the Armbian-config settings the entry wifi is no longer present and also in ifconfig wlan0 is no longer displayed. I have now reflushed the system 3 times and always have the same problem.

Hello fellow Armbianers! I'm using Orange Pi zero. My only complaint is the 30s boot time. Looking at the log files, seems like it only takes 5 seconds to boot once the kernel is loaded. The majority of this 30s is spent in uboot somewhere? Does anyone know how to speed up this boot process? I'm always just booting from SD card, don't need USB boot/network boot, console, or any of that. Thanks!

Hey! I have Lime2-Server from olimex here and get no internet connection. I configured eth0 via nmtui and tried to activate it, but I get: "could not activate connection: the device could not be readied for configuration". Any idea or known issue? best regards armybee

Armbian 24.2 is broken on Orange PI PC2 (Debian Bookworm CLI) Latest stable community release: https://github.com/armbian/community/releases/download/24.5.0-trunk.123/Armbian_community_24.5.0-trunk.123_Orangepipc2_bookworm_current_6.6.20_minimal.img.xz With update 23.11 -> 24.2 the orange pi pc2 no longer starts. I tried a new sd installation and it too does not appear on the network. Right now I don't have a serial cable to check but it is possible that the network driver is missing or not working. SD, SBC and PSU are 100% working: a revert to 23.11.2 makes it work perfectly.

Hi, does anyone know where I can find a build for linux 5.1 for my orange pi zero 2w. I would like to use fbtft device, so either finding a pre 5.4 linux build, or building one myself (In that case how so because I failed miserably) or an alternative to fbtft. Thank you very much

Hi Igor, Thank you for all your work. I was looking at your website and found out that page with Bananapis is missing some content (FAQ is missing, I assume that it is the same as on orange pi pages. Also in "Graphics desktop environment upgrade ready. (kernel 3.4.x only) Possible further upgrade to desktop hardware acceleration." - upgrade ready has broken link). Some parts of text looks like outdated too. Would you be a modern superman with unlimited free time and update that page? I am interested in accelerated desktop environment and all 2D acceleration. But I was unsuccessful in finding more about it. OK, I have not found anything. Would you be so king and give…

Hello there, I belong to the group of users that bought a BPi-M2 to just find out that hardware is nothing without software support. First, to my background: I do spend a lot of time at my computer using both Windows and Linux, but I am not a Linux guru. I used to configure and build kernels several years ago, at the time, when we used LILO to boot Linux. My field of interest is real-time sound processing, based on complex filter banks (ideally implemented using multi-threading). For a current project I needed something small, powerful and easily programmable. Since the BPi-M2 has 4 cores and built-in microphone, it seemed ideal for the first tries. Anyway, I…

Hello ! Aftert installing new image (Armbian_5.04_Bananapipro_Debian_jessie_3.4.110) onto Banana PI, I can't start desktop, startx command is not recognized. Neither root or normal user. Any idea wha't going on? Regards! Mladen, Herzegovina

I keep my Lime2 updated with apt-get update/apt-get upgrade, but it does not upgrade the u-boot, that is still an old version: U-Boot SPL 2015.07-armbian-sun7i (Oct 11 2015 - 17:17:10) DRAM: 1024 MiB CPU: 912000000Hz, AXI/AHB/APB: 3/2/2 Because the network speed is not that fast, I suspect this could be solved with a more recent u-boot. How do I update the Lime2 bootloader to a recent u-boot without re-downloading an image and re-installing all my software and data?

I have a small sdcard on an orange pi zero and I would like just to keep it for booting, installing package and doing all work on key usb (16 Go) english is not my mother language and what I have read up to now is very difficult to understand i would like somenthing step by step like the diespi installation tutorial, well I forget to say I have dietpi on my 2Go sd card works fine wifi too.

After setting up my static IP address, I can't SSH or Ping to the board anymore. The board shows up on my router list of connected devices, and the Pi Hole works normally. I flashed a new SD card and went step by step to see what was causing the problem. I resize the filesystem, update and upgrade the system, then I set up the static IP, so this happens. I tried both by /etc/netwkork/interfaces and by nmtui. This is what my /etc/network/interfaces file looks like: auto lo iface lo inet loopback iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.25.160 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.25.1

Hi. I have an issue configuring the board: no hugepage configured. I installed the command line Ubuntu. No I am in command line via SSH. Everything is ok. With a NanoPi Fire3, OrangePi Pc2 and an OrangePi Zero H5 I had not this issue. The folder /sys/kernel/mm/hugepages does not exist; the folder /proc/sys/vm has not the value or file that tells how mutch is the hugepages amount.

I've tried to downgrade the kernel with the armbian-config tool, but now the opi+2 hangs while booting from emmc. I can boot via sd card, but i dont know how to fix the problem - please help.

Hello! In order to compile software on my Banana Pi running Armbian 5.27 Debian 8, I started off uncommenting the "# deb-src" lines in /etc/apt/sources.list and then ran apt-get update and apt-get upgrade. The start screen in the shell would then ask me to reboot as the kernel was updated. But after the reboot there was no AppleTalk anymore to serve my old devices. Compiling a newer Armbian with an up-to-date version of Debian is of no use to me as I run software (A2SERVER) that is incompatible with newer systems. So how can I upgrade my system without loosing AppleTalk (which I configured as a kernel module when compiling two years ago)? …

Hi everyone, I am trying to set the pin 26 (PL08) on orange pi as Input but sometimes it is flashing. I did put a 10K external pull up resistor and it is exported as input pin. I did the same thing with the pin 22 (PD21) and this one is steady, no problems until now. I did not add anything on overlays for these pins. Any idea what I am doing wrong? Thanks

Hello, I am using Armbian on a Nanopi Neo Allwinner h3. I build Armbian with the Armbianbuild repository and noticed that the CPU Frequency in all builds (minimal/standard) (buster/focal) are between 480MHz and 1.37GHz, but the H3 Soc only supports up to 1.2GHz.

Hello. I have the following problem with my Orange Pi PC: When I turn it on, only the green and orange LEDs of the ethernet port are flashing. There is no output on the HDMI port. I have already tried different microSD cards and different images. It used to work perfectly, but all of a sudden it stopped working. Maybe an issue with the power supply (it is the offical power supply 5V 3A DC jack).

As you known OrangePi PC PLUS with armbian (e.g. Armbian 22.05 Jammy) can't be fully off. (But Xunlong's Ubuntu 16 can be off ok) I suggest change status of board from green "Supported" to yellow "SUITABLE FOR TESTING (WIP)".

Dear all, I copied Armbian 4.5 (on cubietruck with kernel 4.3.3) from SD to SSD using the script "nand-sata-install.sh". The resulting system with /boot from SD and rootfs on SSD works fine. However, the "Welcome to Armbian" message generated upon login contains the error message "df: cannot access ‘/dev/sda1’: over-mounted by another device" (see below). It seems to be related to mounting /boot from SD.

Hi, Are there any news on if Armbian will be on the new H5 64bit board? Orange released an Android SDK and an Android image but I guess everyone is waiting for a decent 64bit Debian. Since took the plunge and got into the H5 wagon ordering one, I looked at the released info and obviously there was nothing I could use myself.. So the question goes to the Armbian gurus, guys do you think that there could be an Armbian release for H5 this year? Christos
