Hello Everyone, I would like to play with my A20 board a bit and would like to use the GPIOs. I checked the forum but it's still not clear what to do and how. Can someone explain to me how to get for example pin 16 on the board? This is the fex: Spoiler [gpio_para] gpio_used = 1 gpio_num = 88 gpio_pin_1 = port:PB20<1><default><default><default> gpio_pin_2 = port:PB21<1><default><default><default> gpio_pin_3 = port:PB20<1><default><default><default> gpio_pin_4 = port:PI03<1><default><default><default> gpio_pin_5 = port:PB22<1><de…

Hi, Got OPiPC with legacy and Ubuntu desktop, build 5.33. Gonna attach some external dynamic mic to OPiPC in place of the on-board condenser mic, replacing it. How can we stop the mic bias voltage? Can we do that from Alsa or Pulseaudio? Christos

Hello, guys! I'm trying to make use of gpio-poweroff procedure. I'm trying to understand the consequences of the approach I've used. Here's what I did 1) Added power_ctrl: power_ctrl { compatible = "gpio-poweroff"; gpios = <&pio 6 11 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>; force; }; to arch/arm64/boot/dts/allwinner/sun50i-h5-nanopi-neo-plus2.dts 2) Recompiled the device tree blob and put it where it belongs The gpio-poweroff's code got probed but failed due to `pm_poweroff_handler` being set to something. So I figured it out that it's set to `psci_sys_poweroff` in [drivers/firmware/psci.c](https://github…

Hi, I have been working on this problem for a few days. I have a orangepi plus2e and orange pi 5'' lcd. When I make all the connections and give power to the orangepi, I can not see anything on the LCD. At first only a white light comes out. Later on, I looked at the 5 inch screen produced by OrangePi with 640x480 resolution and the LCD settings on the H3 boards. I tried to set the resolution with the h3disp command, but I did not see the proper resolution. I did these on a different computer screen, and when I changed the resolution, nothing appeared on this screen.

Hi, i have a small/big problem because i`m not able to change the system time. The same with ntpdate, its not able to adjust :( and i didnt have any idea whats wrong.

Hi, I'm trying to create a DT overlay for my Cubietruck running 4.19.62 and I've placed it in /boot/overlay-user and changed the user_overlays entry in boot.scr to load it. It is being loaded but I'm getting FDT_ERR_NOTFOUND when trying to apply it. The overlay is meant to change the label and default-trigger entries for the four LEDs in the leds node. I'm using dtc 4.1.4 and it does compile this overlay. Can anybody tell me how I can change this overlay so it will work ? Or perhaps tell me if this is not possible. /dts-v1/; /plugin/; / { compatible = "allwinner,sun7i-a20"; fragment@0 { target = <&leds>; …

I'm getting logspam from RTL871X running buster on my OrangePi Plus 2e. I'm not using wifi on this so I guess I could just disable/blacklist rtl871x to stop this? But is there a better/cleaner way to stop all these log entries? Or does it indicate something is broken/mis-configured? syslog is showing many many log entries from RTL871X; each minute I get the following sequence: May 23 16:52:06 orangepiplus2e kernel: RTL871X: cfg80211_rtw_scan(wlan0) May 23 16:52:06 orangepiplus2e kernel: RTL871X: _rtw_pwr_wakeup call ips_leave....

Issue: 1. I have Armbian 22.05 installed on emmc 2. I have run apt upgrade 3. During the process, I got an error due stated that no space on /boot 4. I have tried to reboot but no sign that board starting 5. I have burn SD, load from SD, copy SD boot to emmc boot and than can boot from emmc again The main question is how to prevent this issue in future? How to clean-up /boot from obsolete kernels and avoid space issue?

When I attempt to run the Sudo apt update command I am receiving an error message about the Repository not being signed. See attached photograph

Can we count on adding a module to the future kernel... I mean: v4l2loopback 🙂

Any advice for building for the H5 flavor of the Zero Plus? I am not new to kernal compiling or embedded systems dev but am rather new to compiling linux kernals FOR embedded systems. Currently using the H5 image from here: https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-zero-2-h5/ but there is no easy option to target this board when building from source.

Hi, if anybody can suggest if mentioned situation is OK? Thanks in advance. Originally all my OPI boards have been running on 624 MHz for DDR frequency. 2 days ago I decided to remove fans from My Orange Pi+ 2e and Orange Pi+ 2 (following suggestions from forum as fan is maybe not required). 1. Orange Pi+ 2e (this is running all my services which is: nextcloud, mail server, svn and web server to access mentioned) - originally with heasink and fan (as you can see downtime on Oct 14th - when I have removed fan and keep only heatsink). But something happened - with fan ddr frequency was always 624 MHz. Without fan some time after reboot it is increasi…

Hello, in the company where I work, a nanopi M1 plus was purchased and we are developing a firmware to run on the device. In our code we need to change the settings of the active wired connection at that time, but we can not do it due to an error. If, for example, we use the following command: nmcli connection modify 'Ifupdown (eth0)' ipv4.method auto The following error message is returned. Error: failed to modify connection 'Ifupdown (eth0)': Connection is read-only The command is executed correctly if the connection is not managed by NetworkManager, so when in the file: "NetworkManager.conf" the "managed" parameter is set to false. We had to s…

Hello! I'm using Armbian Stretch for 1080P Pinebook A64. I've installed Armbian Stretch about 2 months ago, when it was still "Unsupported" and in-development. Now, however, it's supported. Currently, I'm on Armbian Stretch 5.60 and dev branch. I would like to update to 5.69 and next branch. However, from armbian-config, I'm only able to go from stable to nightly build (5.68, but still dev branch). Moreover, I can't select next kernel from Other menu. Is there a way to switch branches (barring re-flashing from latest image)?

Hi there, this is continuation of my previous thread about problems with my OPiPC+. 1). "OOB" Armbian Buster, looks working OK, not "ported" all soft / configs from another one. 2). Armbian Jessie upgraded up to Buster, mainly for mosquitto, OpenHAB2, PostgreSQL 11 (for logical replication). Now I have copied everything (only different UUIDS) from working /boot directory to the one with problems. (kernel, initrd, etc). What I do not understand, is fact, that on "good" HTOP shows 4 cores, on "bad" one only 1 core, performance is horrible (OpenHAB startup in minutes). OpenHab (I suspect) can cause whole system to hang - ping works but no…

When using armbian-config to select an overlay ("DTO001")e.g. for uart2, one is offered the full names w/ overlay prefix, e.g. sun7i-a20-uart2. The system adds this to armbianEnv.txt: overlays=sun7i-a20-uart2 But it has also the line overlay_prefix=sun7i-a20 In the end, uart2 is not activated (no output from /dev/ttyS1) - after changing the overlay line to overlays=uart2, I can read from /dev/ttyS1. System is Armbian 25.2.2 stable (bookeworm), Armbian Linux 6.12.20-current-sunxi.

Hello Respected Supporters, After upgrading to Armbian 26 (kernel version 6.12.58), the onboard network card (end0) experienced a severe degradation in transmission performance (reduced to approximately 1/10 of previous levels).

I'm new to cubietruck and linux as well. I used the default build for CT i.e. 3.4.107. The wlan0 was working fine. It was using bcmdhd module for wireless. But I had to move the latest version 4.0.5 for the availabilty of sctp module which was not available in 3.4.107. In 4.0.5, the wireless interface is not being detected and it has brcmfmac for wireless i think. Is there a way to implement the sctp in 3.4.107 or make the wireless work in 4.0.5 ? please advise. best regards, Arun

I need/want USB ethernet via OTG. I've wasted over 16 hours trying to get the g_ether module to work. A prominent poster told me that all recent Armbian images have this ability, just follow the directions... It's not.

The OTG connection currently shows up as a USB serial gadget, but I want a USB Ethernet gadget.

Hello Folks, sorry for popping up here with a technical problem first thing - but I have some trouble. I have a circuit where an attenuator is connected to PA19.

(picture courtesy @renaudrenaud) We spotted a new OPi Zero variant with one USB-A receptacle missing and replaced by a second RJ45 jack a while ago (in this report where a lot of 'information' seems a bit questionable to me) Today @Icenowy confirmed existence of this board since Xunlong announced it in a chat group. I believe this is somewhat related to recently available Orange Pi Zero Plus since by looking at the picture we can see behind both Ethernet MagJacks small packages. My bet is we're talking here about RTL8211E (Gigabit Ethernet PHY connected via RGMII to the SoC) and RTL8153 (Gigabit Ethernet MAC/PHY USB2 Hi-Speed attached to the SoC). …

When I did a kernel upgrade using "apt-get dist-upgrade" (because I had earlier the error message ~"failed to Load Kernel Modules", and dist-upgrade was recommended), and this dist-upgrade failed inbetween (probably because of power consumption), the SD card was left in unbootable state. (error msg see below [1]) I concluded that the /boot directory was corrupted, so from a new installation of Armbian_5.38_Debian_stretch_4_14_14 made elsewhere I copied all the /boot directory over to my SD card. This m…

Hi, trying to start my Banana Pi Pro Board with the latest Armbian buster image (Armbian_21.02.1_Bananapipro_buster_current_5.10.12.img.xz) without success. There is initial output on the screen until there is the message "Starting kernel ...", the after a few seconds the monitor loses its signal and nothing seems to happen any more see: https://c.1und1.de/@520257322610590089/1IBkHiwHQX6jYxLPdlkTZQ Reading through the forum I guessed it could have to do with an issue of automatic discovery of the correct DTB, so I edited the armbianEnv.txt file and added the following line to it: fdtfile=sun7i-a20-bananapro.dtb But still the sam…

Hello, since the build for OrangePi Plus 2 is only community maintained (and there is a warning during installation that this build is not suitable for production), I though of using some generic image or a image for a similar board with standard support. Is it a good Idea? Which image should I choose? Thanks for help, Skalistan P.S. there is no tag for "OrangePi Plus 2", so I used the tag for "OrangePi Plus 2E" since it is required to add a tag.

Good morning, I have a NanoPi Neo Core that I want to use to generate a PWM wave. As far as I understand, the pin for this is PA5, which is shared with UART. However, by using the corresponding overlay, the UART would be disabled, and PWM would be enabled. Is that correct? What would be the next steps to verify that this is correct and to generate the PWM wave? Is there a specific command to do this? Thanks for your help, and best regards!

Hi, Recently I've made a custom kernel for an Olimex Lime board. The NAND driver refused to load and reported "kernel divide by zero". I believe the problem is in drivers/block/sunxi-nand/nfd/nand_block.c in function get_cmu_clk. The function (with my patch line) is: __u32 get_cmu_clk(void) { __u32 reg_val; __u32 div_p, factor_n; __u32 factor_k, factor_m; __u32 clock; reg_val = *(volatile unsigned int *)(0xf1c20000 + 0x20); div_p = (reg_val >> 16) & 0x3; factor_n = (reg_val >> 8) & 0x1f; factor_k = ((reg_val >> 4) & 0x3) + 1; factor_m = ((reg_val >> 0) & 0x3) + 1; …

Hi armbians, I was wondering how do you trigger the red LED for other devices like USB r/w or wifi tx/rx . echo mmc0 > /sys/class/leds/orangepi:red:status/trigger works like a charm for microSD r/w.

Hey folks! On monday I was able to fix the overscanning issue of my Orange Pi zero (read here). Because fiddling around with the register values can be pretty harsh some times I decided to created a small programm to move the picture of the composite video output. You can find the project page here: https://projects.nwrk.biz/projects/allwinner-tvout With this tool you can easily move the picture relative to its actual position by just calling : $ sudo tvout -m -x <value in px> -y <value in px> To reset the position you can use: $ sudo tvout -r I hope some of you may find this useful. If I have enoug…

Hi everybody, I asked to forum in the past about game library for C but it is very hard to develop our software in C. As I told in the past, I don't develop a game, I using it to draw some graphs in 2d or 3d. I am here again to ask that, Is OPI Zero can run a game software from Monogame framework. We can port our windows C# software which is written with XNA framework to Linux enviorment with MonoGame. Thanks

Hi! I've been using Armbian on my a20 olinuxino lime2 board without issues for over a year now. Yesterday i decided to reflash the installation image onto the SD board.

Are there any workarounds to this?

Hi, I am trying to use the two UARTS on the I/O pins which are UART 1 and UART 2 mapped to PG6/PG7 and PA0/PA1 respectively. I have had a look at the FEX file and these seem to be mapped correctly to UARTS's port 1 & 2 so I would expect these to be mapped to /dev/ttyS1 and /dev/ttyS2 but this does not seem to be the case. If I try to connect to these UARTs using screen I simply get the message: - root@orangepizero:~# screen /dev/ttyS1 9600 [screen is terminating] I have tried searching these forums and Google but have not really found anything - any help or pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated.

Hello, I'm running a freshly installed armbian with mainline kernel 4.9.5 on my cubietruck. Between u-boot messages and login prompt I don't get any output while booting. I've tried several values for the "console" parameter in the armbianEnv.txt and recompiled the /boot/boot.scr file without success. I've tested both VGA and HDMI (with an HDMI to VGA adapter) outputs without success too. What should I do to get things to work please ? Thanks for your time and your great work on armbian.

It took me a while to get this ILI9340 based LCD monitor working with the Orange Pi Zero until I found a post on this forum that explains how the H2+ ports are mapped to the GPIO numbers in the Linux kernel. So I built an online tool that does the math for you: Here is a map of all the Orange Pi Zero GPIO pins: All the additional details are described in this blog post.

Hi everyones, Last week, I tried to read the value from DS18b20 temperature sensor to log it in the monitor system I already have. But I could not get its value.

OPiPC2, with Armbian Bionic desktop mainline based kernel 4.19.y Using it as headless server, all X and desktop stuff removed. Using PuTTY to log in via SSH, line drawing stuff (as usual) only works if translation is set to ISO-8859-1 in PuTTY. mc looks great, but all ncurses-based software (aptitude, htop, bmon etc) does not. Main problem seems that horizontal spacing is "shrunk" whenever there is no text to keep it: This is even more dramatic for menu systems and anything that is column-oriented. Tried dpkg-reconfigure locales to switch system to ISO-8859, but no change, really seems to be an ncurses bug. No such problem…

Had a bit of a success with HDMI audio and also video acceleration on OrangePi 3. What was needed was to apply some patches from LibreELEC, namely ones from projects/Allwinner/patches/linux/ .

When done right you should see in dmesg: asoc-simple-card sound: i2s-hifi <-> 5091000.i2s mapping ok Also what helped was an IRC chat that Jernej had with mirko some time ago: https://irclog.whitequark.org/linux-sunxi/2018-03-14 For video acceleration you need 0005-cedrus-improvements.patch and compile Cedrus driver.

This maybe something that just isn't available yet, but if I can help with the development I am happy to. I have created the following patches as a starting point but they don't yet work. Looking at the source code for the spidev module and comparing it to the H3 datasheet, it would appear that the H3 uses the sun6i spi register addresses. Though the datasheet lists the RX and TX buffers as 64 bytes whereas the sun6i spidev driver implements 128byte buffers. I'm assuming that this wont be a problem at least for testing as long as I don't try and transfer or receive more than 64 bytes. As you can see from the dtsi patch, I have updated the module memory locatio…

Hello; My OrangePi PC HDMI port is dead, it throws no input signal, and I've read that this board has no ESD protection for HDMI, so I assume it died because of it. What I want to get is video working through analog TV out, but I can't seem to find the solution for this. I guess it should be simple task, but I never did it before. Hopefuly somebody can give me the solution. Thanks!
