Hi, I receive 16 bytes every 0.5 seconds. This should be saved as text or as MySQL table data. Need to compare with all existing records , process and display it on 3.5 inch TFT LCD on SPI ( Notro fbtft ) and also save to SD Card . It should be broadcasted to a fixed Ip using TCPIP. Can I use Orange Pi Zero with 512MB Ram ? Can I partition Ram as RAMFS OR TMPFS to do all read only tasks thus save time for slow SD CARD writes ? Can I first copy boot files and my app,tables to Ram and start from Ram ? Any suggestions ? Thanks

Hi all, I noticed that my OrangePi freezes after 4-5 days of uptime. Something happens (usually around 06:00) when my script simply stop working (no more log entries) and then reboots after ~12 hours (exactly at 13:17 in all occasions). Finally the orange pi becomes unresponsive and heats up to 85-90 degree Celsius. I've checked CPU temperature, disk and memory usage but haven't found anything... I'm a beginner in armbian and completely having no idea what could be the root casue. Could you please help? I've executed a diagnostics you can find it here: http://ix.io/1iQc Related syslog entries: Jul 31 06:10:01…

Hello everyone! Yesterday I downloaded "Armbian 23.5 Jammy". Unfortunately the integrated wifi module does not work. I tried several alternatives but with the same problem. I am not an expert on the subject. Any solution? I'm trying to compile and in one of the steps it tells me that the "Orange Pi 3 LTS - H6" is no longer supported. If anyone knows and can help would be appreciated. https://paste.armbian.com/varepekose Original: Hola a todos! En el dia de ayer descargue "Armbian 23.5 Jammy".

In a brainfart i thought the rpi gpio is compatible with most arm boards. so i took one witch i had laying around and i connected the Raspberry pi DVB-T HAT module (TV uHAT). I checked if the SPI bus pins where compatible and with the help of the "Hardware_Allwinner_overlays guide" i created a overlay for the rpi-tv (used the original from the raspberry pi github). to my surprise (after some struggle) it work. // rpi-tv HAT /dts-v1/; /plugin/; / { compatible = "allwinner,sun4i-a10", "allwinner,sun7i-a20", "allwinner,sun8i-h3", "allwinner,sun50i-a64", "allwinner,sun50i-h5"; fragment@0 { target = <&spi0>; __overlay__ { /* …

Hi, Please, i am seeking for some help. Today i just did an apt-get dist-upgrade and my banana pi updated the kernel to 4.19.13. There wasnt any error messages but then i wasnt able to boot. I get messages like "/boot/zImage file not found" so i checked my sdcard (wich cointains the boot folder) and i saw that zImage was symlink to the previous kernel image (wich no longer existed). I corrected it cause in fact there was a vmlinuz-4.19.13-sunxi but there are some more symlinks broken in boot foolder. UInitrd is also broken and i dont have the appropiate file to make a new symlink, script.bin symlink is also broken (it pointed to /boot/bin/bananapi.bin wich …

Hi, I just downloaded this image from here (this is the link i copied from the bananapipro site): https://dl.armbian.com/bananapipro/Debian_stretch_next.7z and i got Armbian_5.38_Bananapipro_Debian_stretch_next_4.14.14.7z on my disk. Unpacked it and put it on my sdcard with etcher. Tried to mount it as loop device --> error. Checked with gparted --> it said /dev/sdc1 is not ok. Repaired it with gparted and could mount it. Put it with etcher on the card. --> Bananpipro does not boot. Red light is the only one that shows up, none of the other led is blinking. What can i do? best regards Ralf

Hi there. First time posting. I already installed the latest version of the desktop version for my M1 and I was gratefully surprised how an old device is still working thanks to the armbian community. Thanks all of you. I am on a retro project trying to make my M1 working on an old crt TV through the pal/ntsc video output. New compiled kernel doesn’t seem to have the necessary driver/module. Any workarounds/ideas to achieve that? thanks

Hello, I am trying to communicate with a mcp2515 breakout (8Mhz oscillator) on an Orange Pi Pc+ I have modified the breakout following info on Raspberry Pi: HowTo/Quickstart MCP2515 to keep logic level @3v I have two other nodes composed by two Arduinos, with same (not modified) breakout, one that transmits the other receives. I have successfully tested the first breakout (used on OPi) with an Arduino (powered by 3.3v and 5v on TJA1050). It lets me think that hardware is OK. Below photos of wiring (nb: orange wire becomes red, is wired near TJA1050 = 5v): It seems I have the same results with (edited) user_overl…

Hi all together, on a Raspberry Pi 3b and 3b+ as well as on a Odroid-C2 I know how to switch off the blinking LEDs s or Power LEDs. Does anybody know how I can switch off or dim that extremely bright red power LED from the OrangePi3? I tried a script snippet like this: echo none > /sys/class/leds/orangepi\:red:\power/trigger But it wont work. Has anybody a helpful hint for an unpatient contemporary? Thanks for help :o)

Issue found! Orange PI changed eMMC from KLM8G1GETF to KLM8G1WEPD. The difference is eMMC 5.0 vs 5.1 and maybe more. The key things is that Armbian (checked using 5.35 and the latest one) does not see this memory (fdisk -l)!! I have noticed it on OPI0 Plus 2 H3. PCB boards are the same, only memory model no. difference. Someone solved it or noticed the same? Confused 🤨

Hi to all, I have been using banana pi pro and m1 for some years as mini PBX with asterisk, due the stop of bananian's development that works perfectly but now is obsolete and vulnerable, i'm testing armbian but registered prompt audio sounds choppy and i can't find reasons, I tried to move files in ram disk, use usb to lan interface, increase process priority, use performance ad cpu governor, also tried Armbian 5.83 Bananapi Debian stretch next, same problem. Any suggestion ? Thanks advance.

Hello, A newbie here can anyone give me an instruction on how to set Analog Video as Output display in Orangepipc, I am using Armbian Buster with mainline based kernel 5.9.y.

One of the Bananapi-m1+ GPIO pins is connected to an LED that I need to illuminate as quickly as possible after power-on. Using an older Fedora Linux release, it turns on in 3 seconds. Using a recent Armbian build, it takes 45 seconds. I've tried many ways using services with early "After=" targets, to access /sys/class/gpio/* interfaces more quickly, and this improved it by 5 seconds, but it's still too long. So I tried adding a device tree overlay to set the default value in the pin controller. I am confident the DT overlay is getting read and parsed properly, based on seeing artifacts in debugging streams, but still, no LED illumination. Anybody got any ideas on …

Hey everyone... I have an Orange pi zero Plus2 h5. The SD card load and boot is working fine. However, i just realized i have no way to connect a keyboard and mouse to it to finish the setup.

Hi, I performed an apt-get upgrade on my system, and it installed the 4.13 kernel. After the reboot, i started getting the message "bad CRC - using default environment". I spent the whole day reading many threads but still didn't manage to come with a solution. I tried the symlink to /boot/dtb/allwinner from the PC2 forum, but with no luck. I bought this board recently, it is my first board and i am very new to this, although i have decent Linux knowledge. Could you point out what i might have done wrong or if i'm missing something?

First i have to say - if i knew what i am gonna go through, i would never buy this troubled hardware. So don't buy it too. But if you are already strayed like me, i decided to share my modifications, to make this inconsiderate piece of hardware useful. With this mods the device finally work as i need it to and i am fully happy with hardware part. Not so happy with software though, but that's another story. The main reason for me, to buy this router, except pc like capabilities, was SATA+SATA power connector. I used my old router with usb HDD, so it sounded good to have it in box and on native sata interface. Silly me, who would thought this will be the most troubled …

Hello, I'm working on a project which include a microcontroller and a NanoPi NEO Core running Armbian FriendlyCore distribution. The NanoPi is wired to the µcontroler ICSP which can reset the µcontroller for update purpose. The allwinner H3 datasheet state that the GPIOA6 (the one linked to ICSP) should start with HIGH-Z and no resistance pulling, it seems to do so but a few second after reboot it seems to go low as all other GPIO... resulting in an unwanting reset of the µcontroller. Is there a way to change this by setting the default state somewhere in the system, or should I have to use dts files or core compilation ? Any solution would be appreciated. …

Hi, I have been using the Aruntu 2.0 desktop for CubieTruck on my sailboat mainly to run an OpenSource charting program called OpenCPN. On Aruntu I was able to compile from source and it worked well. Aruntu is no longer supported, so I am trying to switch to ArmBian. I can compile on ArmBian, but OpenGLES is not found, so the program defaults to software OpenGL which is very slow. How can I install OpenGLES support, in order to use the hardware video accelleration ? Thanks, JM.

Dear all, i just installed a fresh Armbian 4.5 Jessie with Vanilla kernel 4.2.3 on an SD card and booted it on a cubietruck. I did not receive any HDMI output. This did not change after a kernel update to 4.2.5 via apt-get update and apt-get upgrade and a reboot. However, the same cubietruck works flawlessly with Debian Wheezy (2.6 updated to 4.5) and kernel 3.4.110. I checked the boot.cmd script and looked into cubietruck.bin - the standard settings would appear to identify the correct (HD) display resolution and to enable HDMI by default. Do you have any recommendations ? Is there anyone experiencing the same problem ? With kind regards, Lupus …

Hello, is the new Orange pi Zero LTS supported by Armbian? It's the same chip and same stuff but they claim they have reduced the power consumption and lower the board’s temperature.

I installed every operating system listed on Armbian’s Orange Pi Zero 3 page and followed all the standard setup procedures. Despite updating all packages and even performing kernel updates, I have never been able to get any sound output from the device. I have checked multiple configurations, tried different OS images, and ensured that all drivers are up to date, but nothing works. The device otherwise functions normally, but audio simply does not come through under any circumstances. Could you please provide guidance or a solution? Any help would be g…

Hello, I am going to start looking into running Docker on OPi +2E soon, but before I get stuck in details I would like to know whether other people have had experience with it..? In particular, I would like to know what to expect when trying to run Docker on an OPi +2E. Having a report from prior experience would be helpful. As far as I understand, Docker is still in pretty much experimental stages on ARM. Kind regards, @ullbeking

After orangepiplus upgraded the kernel, the native wifi interface card disappeared. Output log of sudo armbianmonitor -u: https://paste.armbian.com/ilufiwukav Currently, after upgrading the kernel to 6.6.36-current-sunxi, the native wlan0 will disappear.

Hello! I recently started setting my board up, and came across all the information needed to enable the LCD use for it. For info, I've updated to 5.20. I have gone through the whole process to change the script.bin to fex, edit, change back, copy and sync. The changes are saved, I have even made a copy of the script.bin to script.fex in order to see if the new script contains the changes I made. All is there. It seems to be the problem another user had in this thread: http://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic/841-bananapro-lemaker-5in-lcd-legacy-kernel/ In this case I chose the lcd_if=4 since it is what they provide at sunxi, but it didnt work.

Hi, Orange PI Lite Armbian 5.25 (latest download available at the time of this post) ARMBIAN 5.25 stable Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS 3.4.113-sun8i I would like to have the Pi boot without the desktop environment, and either start it manually over SSH. I found a tutorial that said to edit /etc/default/grub and change GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="text" but that file does not apply, so I'm not sure how to impliment this for armbian. I don't want to remove the desktop environment completely, but rather have it bootup to command line only, and if I need the desktop environment log into via SSH and either re-edit "a file" and…

I've just asked this question on the UNIX StackExchange - but I am hoping that the Armbian wizards may have a better idea on what is happening. The setup: - Machine 1 is an Arch Linux laptop, on which `ssh` is spawned, connecting to an Armbian-running SBC (an Orange PI Zero). - The SBC itself is connected via Ethernet to a DSL router, and has an IP of 192.168.1.150 - The laptop is connected to the router over WiFi. - There's also another laptop (Machine 2) connected via Ethernet to the DSL router. When benchmarked with `iperf3`, the link between the laptop and the SBC is less than the theoretical 56 MBits/sec - as expected, since …

Good afternoon. The problem is indicated in the title. The computer is connected to my monitor via HDMI and the screen resolution is only 1024x768. Which is inconvenient to use. I saw a similar topic raised on the official forum of a single-payer in 2019, but no one answered there. Is this a problem of the computer itself or the Linux kernel or drivers?

Hello, I am trying to have a serial link between an arduino and a banana pi. As a basic test, the Arduino is sending "hello" every seconds. I observe that the reception by the Banana pi is not good. I have tried , several baud rates, /dev/ttyS2 and FTDi adaptor. The best result seems to be with the FTDI adapter , at 115200 bps. But I have still a lot of errors, see below. When I plug the FTDI adapter on my laptop, it works without issues. Do you know what could be the cause of my issues?

Hello everybody, the images from armbian for my Orange Pi 3 work very fine and stable. Thank you for that. I came to armbian by links form orangepi.org.

Hello all! Does anybody know how to make 5inch hdmi screen for RPI work with OrangePi One? When I try to connect it to my OPI one with armbian it is just white screen and no one of LEDs is lighting on the OrangePI PCB.

Dear Armbian community, not sure if this the right place for this thread, please feel free to move it. I'm testing the Debian Installer Buster (alpha release) after seeing that there is (partial) support for the 5 there is (partial) support for the•Orange PI zero (H2+) and other boards. It seems that the u-boot packages in Debian miss the u-boot build for the Orange Pi zero and support for the Ethernet controller as it seems it is not the mainline kernel yet and seems to be needing some work in order to be available in kernel 4.15. Armbian already includes the u-boot build and has support for the Ethernet controller of the Orange…

I'm trying to disable IPv6 on my NanoPi Neo2. Initially I used the option in armbian-config -> Network -> IPv6 (toggle). I can confirm that IPv6 is disabled by running 'ip a' and no longer seeing any IPv6 addresses. And I can also confirm that the following config is changed in /etc/sysctl.conf: net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1 net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 1 net.ipv6.conf.lo.disable_ipv6 = 1 However after a reboot I see the IPv6 addresses back. I found a guide (itsfoss) that suggest the same changes to sysctl.conf and if the changes do not persist ander a startup I should make edit /etc/rc.local : #!/bin/bas…

Hi, I have probably trivial question related to GPIO on Orange Pi Zero. So - I have a switch there connected ot 3.3V and then to GPIO (pin 12 on Zero). What I want to do is just to read GPIO state. When button pressed it goes to high state - normally. On RaspberryPi and Odroid C1 that works fine just using basic code with wiringpi2 or eventually wiringpi. So I tried the same on Zero compiling wiring for H3/H2. My code is basic in Python: import time import wiringpi import pyA20 as GPIO cykl = 1 wiringpi.wiringPiSetupGpio #or wiringPiSetup() wiringpi.pinMode(1,0) while cykl == 1 : do_call = wiringpi.digitalRead(1) if do_call: print 'pressed' time.s…
