Hello All, I have configured OrangePiR1 as router. There are three network interfaces, two as wired and one wifi(hotspot). eth0 serve for access to internet(via ppp/adsl) and eth1+Wlan0 for internal network. Interfaces eth1 and wlan0 are in bridge br0. Problem is, that interface eth1 sometimes loses connection/link(cable and switch were checked ). Next nonstandard behavior of eth1 is, that only yellow led control is blinking, while green led control is not alight. Network interfaces were configured via file /etc/network/interfaces. However, when I checked network manager nmcli, I saw, that some connections are configured there too (there can …

Good evening, I ran into some problems with sbc-bench on a couple of Allwinner boards Orange Pi Zero, Orange Pi Zero+, Orange Pi One and Nanopi Neo 2 spcifically. The 7 Zip benchmark causes the following error: ./sbc-bench.sh: Zeile 611: 4206 Bus-Zugriffsfehler "${SevenZip}" b >> ${TempLog} Most likely due to a problem with the ZRam: zram: Decompression failed! err=-22 This happens on all boards under Debian and focal with different SD cards and power supplies. The benchmark ran previously on this setups without any issues – unfortunately I don’t know when it stopped working and hence cannot narrow do…

Is the build for Orangepi Plus the same for Orangepi Plus 2? When I download for OPI Plus 2 I get the following file: Armbian_5.65_Orangepiplus_Debian_stretch_next_4.14.78 but it will not start

Hello! I'm running CB2 board as home server for a long time and after recent upgrade I've got an issue with LXC container. LXC container has "Ubuntu" inside and provides TOR functionalty + access point via connected USB wifi. USB adapter passed to container like this: lxc-wait -n tor -s RUNNING lxc-device -n tor add wlan0 I'm not using it recently, but recently I found, that after connection to AP nothing happens (no internet, DNS servers are IPV6 :)) and host system (CB2) is completely frozen. After reboot I've connected via SSH and retried to connect to access point - again freeze, and screen is populated with this: …

Hi all. I build Armbian for "orangepipcplus" as described here: https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_Build-Preparation/ After build finished, I've got Armbian_5.24_Orangepipcplus_Ubuntu_xenial_3.4.113.img image, flash it to SD card, and my OPi starts well, thanks! All things that necessary for my work tasks - works fine: USB, USB OTG, WiFi, but... no Ethernet :-( When I plug Ethernet cable into my PC and OPi - no LED blinks at both sides (but Ethernet on PC 100% works, tested with Raspberry Pi, for example). In console kernel logs I see the following: [ **] A start job is running for Raise network interfaces (26s / 5min 6s) And OPi actually wa…

Hi! I just bought a NanoPi M1 board and It is running with Armbian without problem. Now I want to add a DHT22 temp & hum sensor but searching in the web I cant find any script to get it work. I saw that the RPi script doesn't work on the NanoPi M1 because the chip is differnt. In the Friendlyarm page there is a C script to work with the DHT11, but nothing with the DHT22. So, anyone have been experimenting whit it in this context? There are a Wiring Pi equivalent to NanoPi M1? Thanks

I've a problem with latest Armbian Debian Server stretch (ARMBIAN 5.38 stable Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) 4.14.18-sunxi, Uboot loader 2017.11) on OrangePI One, and OrangePI PC. It boots seemingly OK, but without any output to 1080P HDMI monitor. So I've no video. But Ubuntu Desktop with Legacy kernel boots fine using the same SDCard (and same power supply ). I can SSH to the Debian after boot, here's the boot and diag log. Couldn't wait for senseless SDCard testing to finish, as it works perfect with Armbian Ubuntu Desktop version. Legacy version on 1st boot shown boot progress and defaulted to 720P resolution, which I changed later to 1080P. But Debian Server doesn't sh…

I'm trying to get audio out work on Orange Pi Lite using HDMI. aplay -l lists sndhdmi as card #1 and I have set it up as default in ~/.asoundrc. aplay -v shows it being used, but my AV receiver doesn't recognise the Pi nor output any sound. The same cable & receiver works fine with e.g. Macbook Pro. Should the HDMI audio output work in the legacy Jessie server image for OPi Lite? If yes, how could I debug more why it doesn't seem to work?

Hi, I just installed the Armbian_5.35_Orangepilite_Ubuntu_xenial_default_3.4.113_desktop.img on my 32GB SD card for my new OPi Lite. On start-up the screen res overlaps the monitor a the top and bottom and the screen text is thin, fuzzy and illegible in places. I can see from the Fine Tuning section of the Armbian documentation and a post by tkaiser that the h3disp utility can be used to modify the script.bin file to permanently update the start-up screen res. I have a NEC MultiSync LCD1830 that's optimal res is 1280 x 1024 at 60 Hz to 76 Hz so naturally I'm trying set this resolution. The monitor is connected to the Opi Lite via a VGA to HDMI adaptor.

Just flashed Armbian 20.11.9 for NanoPi Neo 2 with kernel 5.10.4. I have run armbian-config to install kernel 5.10.4 source, but there is no any option for 5.10.x kernel sources, I see only options for 5.8.x and 5.9.x.

I have orange pi one with Armbian Xenial desktop legacy kernel 3.4.y which have a script.bin file in /boot directory and doesn't have /boot/dtb directory ...but when i installed Armbian Bionic mainline based kernel 4.19.y, I found the .dtb files but not the script.bin ....now i don't know how to configure both touch screen and the pwm pin! is the .dtb file (sun8i-h3-orangepi-one.dtb) is the same as script.bin or orangepione.bin ? if so, how to configure it? because i am used to convert the script.bin to .fex to configure it and then back to .bin.

After about 10-20 hours of normal work the IP address on USB wifi adapter disappears. Ethernet adapter connected to the same router works well at the same time.

That is, I give my client the orange pi configured and no sd card inserted, starts with emmc, but if someone inserts an sd card with any image for this card can mount the internal partition and access the contents.

how i can enable usb wifi on orange pi pc ?

Hi! Im running armbian 5.25 on a banana pi. And i cant found a way to enable gpio on in. In armbian 5.31, there is an option on the armbian-config to do it. On 5.25 i cant find it. Anyone could help me enabling GPIO for UART3, UART7 and I2C? Thanks Sergio

Hi, I have an Orange PI Lite on to which I'd like to install the latest Armbian release. I had Armbian Xenial installed on the Pi Lite quite some time ago for test purposes and put it to one side while I got hardware for my Pi Lite set up for its intended use. I wiped the SD card and I was ready to download, install and set up the latest Armbian Xenial on my Orange Pi Lite when I notice the sub-heading "desktop legacy kernel 3.4.y". I'm not sure if this description appeared previously but my question is does this mean that this version, i.e. "Armbian Xenial desktop legacy kernel 3.4.y", although currently supported is no longer being updated and will theref…

How do I copy sdcard image to nand . I tried to use the ./nand-sata-install script and it returns the following message " There are no targets. Please check your drives. "

A board (nanopi neo) collects some information and stores it to SD card. Users than change the SD card and open it on PC (windows). Due windows limitation, there is only one (first) partition (fat/ntfs) can be visible. Current mainline image for nanopi neo contains only one ext4 partition, so I tried to gparted it (moved first partition and made new FAT16 one), but for some reason, the image did not boot. So I'm looking for info, how to make two partitions properly.

In the 3.4 Kernel I could call: rmmod dhd modprobe dhd op_mode=2 To set the wifi module to Access Point mode. But with the latest Kernel 4.14(?) neither of these modules exist. Does anyone know what the equivalent of this code would be for 4.14, or some other way to enable AP mode?

So I apologise in advance because I'm sure it's probably on this forum but I could not work out the buzzwords to find it. For whatever reason, I upgraded the cubietruck with armbian which has been on since forever and rebooted for the first time this year. On reboot it failed to find /boot and a few other things and kept bootlooping, resetting itself and then following the same procedure. I already had installed the system to my SATA SSD, so this isn't a huge deal. I've flashed the latest armbian release onto the SD card and it boots fine. Now, I see there is an install to sata option in armbian-config but it gives me the warning that it will wipe …

Hi guys, I have PCDuino 3 Nano which worked fine on latest ARMBIAN on Debian Jessie which is moving to EOL and armbian support for this board was dropped due to lack of devices.

I know that still are a lot of A20 boards that have armbian support. Which of them I can use and what probably won't work?

I have build a Embedded Cluster [1] out of a cubietruck, 5 Orange Pi PC and one Orange Pi One system. Since yesterday I have modified my cluster chassis. Maybe but just maybe a short circuit happened on my OPiOne because of some assembly issues I had during it's installation. The problem is that it OPiOne does not boot any more. The red and green LED are still turned off. The two LED'S of the ethernet port are always switched on. Nothing to see on a screen attached to the HDMI port. It a…

Hi, as it is quite hot now in Europe, one of my boards is experiencing overheat and shuts down automatically: Jun 25 16:52:27 localhost kernel: [74505.568246] thermal thermal_zone0: critical temperature reached (90 C), shutting down Who is initiating this shutdown? Is it possible to: 1. Change the temperature value that triggers the shutdown 2. Hook a script instead of direct shutdown so I can handle the overheat Thanks

First Boot is Ok and then at second Booting of the above image, I receive the usual Out of Sync messaage (67.5kHz / 60 Hz) message and no display! regards, hitam4450

Hi, couple of month ago I installed Armbian on my Cubietruck. I didn't really use it much, but today I decided to start using it, and obviously the right way to do so is to update to the latest version. So when I started, I had this version on my Cubietruck: ARMBIAN Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS 3.4.112-sun7i I followed Igor's instructions at http://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Getting-Started/#how-to-update : apt-get update apt-get upgrade apt-get install -f apt-get upgrade apt-get autoremove -y However, I received the following error message after the first instance of "upgrade": ...

hi every body! in last two days, i have been trying to make my orange pi zero board to hotspot device. i follow instruction at armbian documentation and it's work fine. but i want more than a simple bridge network. in order to use nginx to show my website to connected devices, i need to set ip to connected devices. i used both of isc-dhcp-server and dnsmesq, but it failed every time a device want to connect to board. dnsmasq config: interface=lo,wlan0 no-dhcp-interface=lo dhcp-range=192.168.8.20,192.168.8.254,255.255.255.0,12h interface config auto lo iface lo inet loopback iface eth0 inet dhcp auto wlan0 iface wlan0 inet static hostapd /etc…

Hi, Over the last couple of weeks, I have been trying to get Pi-hole working (and more importantly, stable) on the Orange Pi (along with the relevant Orange Pi zero H2+ ARMbian OS) without success. I realize that I am using "Tested" but as yet not marked "Stable" code, however I'm hoping this can help somebody here perhaps in terms of developing a stable OS for these little boards. I have rebuilt the SD card from scratch several time now. The SD card is of reputable make (Sandisk) and in fact I have tried two different cards, just in case this was a card issue. I'm using a reliable power supply, which I have verified by continuously monitoring it with my …

Hi, What are the boot priorities on the Orange Pi Zero 2+ H3 / H5 boards? In case of a working eMMc boot, is it possible to prohibit any boot through SD? Thanks /R

I live in the desert in California and the only Internet access I have is using PDANet on my phone. Is there a way to build an SD Card using rufus (which is a great app by the way) that I can use to load LXDE on my Olimex Micro? Once I get the desktop loaded I will get PDANet working on Olimex, but this seems like the lessor of two evils. I have both Jessie and Wheezy working and I'm still running off of the SDCard's. I have SSH working in both versions if that helps. thanks in advance. Mike

I've noticed that Armbian builds are taking a really long time to power up on Orange Pi PC and Orange Pi One. Is there some way I can see what's going on in the bootloader that's causing these long delays? Also, if I run apt-get dist-upgrade and take the latest kernel, it never boots after that point. I think something's wrong with the boot sector (or whatever it is) that is written/updated on the SDCard. The Orange Pi power LEDs don't light up until the bootloader successfully finds an OS on the SDCard. All of the builds over at orangepi.org work just fine but the Armbian ones aren't working right. I'm using a diverse collection of very high-quality SDC…

Hi everybody, just downloaded Armbian_5.30_Orangepizero_Ubuntu_xenial_default_3.4.113 and flashed. I can see "orangepizero" in network, also ip is pingable but ssh port is closed. Is it a known issue? Armbian_5.30_Orangepizero_Debian_jessie_default_3.4.113 from archive works fine. Thanks

For days now I have been fighting to get this thing working. No boot, No hdmi, no sound, no wireless network and so on. Armbian is anyway the best choice for this device, Supported? well yes if you have lan, true HDMI Well i got it to boot, after writing a new image to sd card. finally booted, no signal detected ( with a DVI > HDMI ), I had to hook it up to a true HDMI and modify the script.bin file to get a signal. Got it to boot all the way to the desktop. Hurray ! Plugged in a crappy wifi adapter from Ali express (realtek 8081 i think it is) and I got wifi, jippi. Next time booting no wifi, no matter what I tried. Made a new image again, with modi…

I am operating a headless data acquisition system with Orange Pi Zero Plus2. In the readings I collect among others data from a discrete separate 18B20 sensor and record the H3 CPU temperature. The 18B20 reading comes from the w1 kernel routine, the CPU temp is provided by armbian OS. With the new OS 5.8.16 I see a strange effect: reading .... the external sensor at /sys/bus/w1/devices/<sensID>/temperature and the CPU temperature at /etc/armbianmonitor/datasources/@soctemp it gives the same reading correct to a 1/100 degree. Even when the system runs low power - this cannot be true. I have no idea how these results can be mixed in t…

Hi, As I saw some people were able to use docker on CubieTruck : https://dzone.com/articles/cross-platform-hybrid-cloud https://dzone.com/articles/big-data-processing-arm-0 As there are also some images for Raspberri/docker like http://blog.hypriot.com/getting-started-with-docker-on-your-arm-device/and as in the changelog of the kernel, docker is mentionned, I would like to know how to install & use docker on my cubietruck. Did someone achieve that ?

I have been using this orangepi for several years now. Today SSH stopped working (it would hang indefinitely after password prompt) so I decided to restart it by removing and re-plugging the psu cable. After that it never appeared on the network again. 1) the board lights up: green / orange light on ethernet, and one green light on MB that turns on for ~25sec then turns off for ~10sec 2) I connected it to two switches with multiple cables, none of them show the ethernet port as active (no light on the switch port) Obviously due to 2) it doesn't appear on the router 3) microsd mounts fine on my pc, did a backup and flashed a clean image to no avail, wil…

As title says, how to install image on eMMC on this board? My board works fine on TF card with every image FriendlyElec, DietPi and you here provide, but i haven't managed to make it boot from eMMC. On official Wiki there are some misleading. For Ubuntu they say to select image from eflasher and burn it on TF card. Eflasher folder has two images. Which one? Although i tried both. Anyway, if i burn boot image on TF card, should eMMC stays empty or to burn on it, say, root image? Or to burn root image on TF? I had a few attempts but no luck. Obviously. On Android, they say to insert TF card into PC and burn image on eMMC? LOL. Again should i burn any…

Hi, I'm trying to get pygame working on Banana Pi / Banana Pro (with LVDS display) using the armbian 4.5 CLI images, but I'm unable to succeed (I think I'm missing fbturbo). I tried to install the basic desktop following armbian guide, but pygame still is not working. A little help on this one would be very appreciated, thanks !

I've been trying lots of stuff, read a lot but could not make it work. What I need is to make a video player. If someone pushes a button a specific video will be played. So simple. The device will be networked and I will add other stuff in time (sensors, Python scripts, IoT frameworks etc). I chose Orange Pi One and Armbian Debian LEGACY (sorry NOT mainline) kernel. I wrote scripts to to automate device setups. All fine. To play videos I installed LXDE and mpv. The video did not work as there is no acceleration. Drivers seem to be broken (05.02.2017 compilation - I read about the broken drivers, but do not have the solution) …

Hello everyone, Around July 2018 I was able to successfully build an Armbian image for NanoPi Duo using provided documentation: https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_Build-Preparation/ The reason I decided to build the image was that I needed it with legacy kernel 3.4.113. For some reason there were significant problems with using the mainline kernel with direwolf application which is an amateur radio APRS modem. The device hanged with mainline kernel after few hours of operation without any reason and this was not an overheat problem (temperatures below 50 degrees and a huge heatsink). I believe that it is some problem with audio driver for H2 wh…

Hello, my Orange Pi Lite WiFi (RTL 8189FTV) @ armbian 5.13 for OPi Lite works well on 20 MHz WiFi channels however is not usable on 40 MHz channels. The signal strength vary between 79 to 95 % on 20 MHz channel(s) while from -1 to 36 % on 40 MHz channel(s) and the connection is not possible. It seems the driver still needs some more tweak. Other WiFi devices have no problems with 40 MHz. The router I use to connect to is Asus RT-N18U (Broadcom BCM47081A0). Thank you for your efforts vojtvop

I'm running what I believe is the latest experimental for the neo2 - 5.27.170601. This could well be a problem related to something that doesn't yet work in this build.

Hello, i'm trying to make a mesh network with some Orange PI Zero devices, but ibss (adhoc) and 80211s (mesh) seem not working...with an usb wifi work fine... I have read that this device's support isn't the best, but i don't kwnow if my case is a release specific bug or these modes aren't really supported. Installed release "Armbian_5.38_Orangepizero_Debian_stretch_next_4.14.14", i have also trying dev kernel but this don't load the device... What are the really working modes and valid interface combinations? Reported info by iw list command seem not correct. Thanks for the help

I am making some testing over A20-SOM from Olimex. I have a signal connected to NMI_N pin and with a legacy distribution, with power_start=0 on FEX, I am able to poweroff the board from command line (while the board is still powered) and then poweron/weakup the board raising up the signal on NMI_N. However, I need to do this on an armbian mainline distribution. I poweroff the board from command line (but keep the board powered), the PWR_LED keeps turn on and the board should wakeup when I turn on the signal on NMI_N and it does on my legacy distribution but not in armbian. Has anyone any clue, advice/tip to make this work in armbian? I really don't know where to sta…

Does anyone has a solution to preconfigure the WIFI of my Armbian from windows (or Linux if needed)? My second problem will be: I would like to install my system on the EMMC flash to not be dependent of the SD card. Can you confirm I would only need to run the command "nand-sata-install" when I will get…
