Hello everybody! There was a problem, my OrangePI R1 with the Armbian Stretch OS running works in the access point + bridge mode (hostapd & bridge-utils), and when the client downloads a large file from the network, the RTWHALXT process loads the CPU by 100% and rtw_xmit_thread by 20% (watched using top) as a result, the processor freezes. How to fix it? Thanks in advance, sorry for my English I am from Uzbekistan.

Hi, I'm a new user to SBC and is thinking of buy an orange pi pc 2. Since it has a Mali450 GPU and the manufacturer claims that this SBC support OpenGL, can I use that to play some open source games like 0.A.D on armbian? Is armbian have mali gpu drivers installed? Thanks.

Hi everyone, What I want to do is to use a DS18B20 through 1-Wire to read temperature on an OPi Zero. The sensor seems to be detected by the board (I see the file under /sys/bus/w1/devices/28-something), and then it disappears randomly after a reboot or a power cycle. (file goes away and obviously I can't get any readings). Then it starts working randomly again after an indefinite amount of reboots. I'm having this problem for a while now, and it's driving me absolutely crazy. This one here on the picture is the sensor I'm using. I have attached a 4.7K Ohm resistor between the VCC and Digital cables, and attache…

Hi, I just got a NanoPi Neo Plus2 for which I must prepare an image for our software. Basically I must have a working Ethernet-over-USB, Wifi and NIC. I started with your current Debian image compiled with uses Armbian v8.75 and Linux kernel v4.19.20. In this image Wifi works, but loading the g_ether module does not seem to work. I assume I need to patch the kernel to make this happen, which means I need to build my own images. So I created a Virtualbox environment as described in the documentation, and compiled an image with all the defaults (apart from a date-tag I add to the kernel name for identification). I installed the image to the eMMC and b…

Hi, I'm here to dig into low power consumption with allwinner H6 boards, I own an OrangePi one plus and I'm already doing some tests. With an H3 board and legacy kernel I would simply tweak fex file to turn off the unnecessary, and there is already good material around this argument. But with mainline kernel there is no documentation about lowering power consumption. I would really appreciate some hints on how to tweak down consumption for H6 boards and mainline kernel, probably editing DT overlay or some other config/patch files, and re-building? I already tweaked the simplest things like: -Using fast ethernet instead of gigabit -Lowering max CPU frequency (…

I have a Orange PI PC Plus that isn't booting either from sd or emmc. I had really messed up some configuration, so I erased emmc. After I erased EMMC, I started to get this boot screen. https://photos.app.goo.gl/EbJX43eSATyqTEau8 If I insert a sd card in with the latest Armbian, I get no boot screen, or activity at all. In fact, even if I format the card, and insert it into the OP+ it gets no boot activity. It is only after that I remove the card that it can then boot from usb flash. I ended up writing the latest orangepiplus image to a usb flash drive, and am able to get it to boot via a flash drive. I did backup my microsd install a …

It is possible to drag backlight control slider to far left position and this completely dims the screen's backlight. This might cause a lot of trouble, if backlight levels get saved by systemd service, as it will persist across reboots and will require you to shine a flashlight on a screen to actually see something and turn backlight back on.

Thank you for bringing USB3 to life on the lite2 again!

Hi, I'm back to China and got the NEWEST Orange Pi 3 at hand. But, it looks this new SBC has NOT been supported yet (please refer to https://www.armbian.com/download/?tx_maker=xunlong) ? Just expecting when will the armbian support for Orange Pi 3 out? Cheers Pei

I've got an Orange Pi PC2, and I'm running some pretty CPU intensive tasks on it. However, I'm running into a situation where the processor is overheating and shutting down. I've got a bunch of OPiZero's, and on those I'm used to the kernel automatically throttling the CPU frequency down and/or shutting off cores in response to rising CPU temps -- but I'm not seeing that happen on the PC2 -- it just stays at max CPU speed until it overheats and shuts down. Is there a way to enable that same behavior on the PC2? (I'd rather it throttle down the CPU frequency instead of overheat...)

Hello, I'm trying to read temperature from DHT22 on armbian using OrangePi's WiringPi library. The moment I call digitalWrite the whole system freezes. Previously I had raspbian and it used to work just fine. Am I missing something? Should I do some configuration maybe? Any help is appreciated. Thank you

Greetings, can the NAS HAT for the Zero work on the Zero Plus2 H5? I have the Zero HAT, which connects to the Plus2 board, but when I connect a usb keyboard, it does not power it. Although a usb mouse lights up. I can't test the mouse fully because I'm using ubuntu server on the Plus2 which has no GUI. So again, is the problem that the Plus NAS HAT does not work on the Plus2? I see that there is a NAS HAT for the Plus2 with the same connectors that the Plus HAT has but it's smaller. Thanks in advance iomari

Hi , there I am trying to write a program which will detect the presence of SD Card in Nano Pi M1 plus device. There are many ways to do this either by doing fdisk -l or looking into /dev/mmcblk* . But I want to keep running it in a loop and doing fdisk -l and grep doesn't seems an appropriate way. Can the insertion or removal of SD cards be checked via Hardware Interrupts? Plz. help me I am a newbie. Thank in advance.

Hi, I am new here and searched the forums for an answer to my questions regarding the NanoPi NEO2 and NEO Plus2. Most answers I could find, but a few were left open. The NEO Plus2 is marked as WIP. Why? What do I have to expect not to work? Both boards are similarly old, from what I could find. Will the Plus2 move up to "supported" eventually or does it currently more look like the route is going towards CSC? Do common features like GPIO access, SPI, I2C ... work with current images? Do specific features where the Plus2 differs from the NEO2 like WiFi, Bluetooth, ... work? I already found out, that the second USB port should work…

After along time I downloaded a new armbian image, after doing apt update/upgrade for the last year or so. I was quite surprised to see that the pcduino3nano is now deprecated, while other A20 boards are still supported. What was the exact reason that the pcduino3nano was dropped from support? If I keep using the deprecated OS, can I fully use apt update/upgrade for all user stuff? What would happen to all kernel and u-boot update packages? Is the latest armbian for the pcduino3nano automatically disabling those updates, or do I need to do something manually? *should* I block kernel & u-boot updates? thanks, Michale Jasson

I'm trying to get the Orange Pi One Plus' OTG port to function in "otg" or "peripheral" mode. I've modified the device tree configuration to change the "dr_mode" from "host" to "peripheral". This works as long as the Orange Pi One Plus and the device are separated by a hub. If directly connected via an OTG cable/adapter the device instead charges from the Orange Pi One Plus. I assume this would be due to the OTG port acting as a power source rather than a power sink. However, after experimenting I've been unable to find a device tree configuration change the role of the vbus. Does anybody have any advice?

Hi! Just saw a new board from FriendlyARM - NanoPi R1 (https://www.friendlyarm.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=69&product_id=248). It based on Allwinner H3, has dual Ethernet port, wi-fi and Bluetooth, USB, and onboard eMMC. Memory options are 512MB or 1GB. It comes in a case, just add power supply. Looks quite fun SBC for IoT and for micro router. I was unable to find Armbian images for this board. Could you please comment if is it possible to use images for other Allwinner H3 boards? Do you have any plans to support this board? Thank you in advance for your comments!

Hello, I've been using an OrangePi PC with legacy distribution for a long time as a mini-server, it worked Ok except for some seemingly random freeze. I'm using it with an unsupported monitor size (1600x1200), so I had a modded version, and I never updated the system files to avoid having to recompile. I'd like to update Armbian to the mainline kernel version, but I want to keep all my settings/additions/installed programs, so I'd prefer to NOT do a complete re-install. Is there a way to do an upgrade without losing everything?? If not, how can I keep track of all the modifications currently installed so I can re-install them? TIA

I have OrangePi Zero 512 with Armbian Bionic. I hav econnected LED diode to GPIO PA12 pin. When I (re)boot the device, LED is automatically on. I have to switch it off then manually (with Python script). Is there any config file in Armbian to define which GPIO ports should be switched off?

Hi everyone ! I'm starting this new dedicated thread because I've got some new headache about this issue that we tried to figured out since months... I've received my PineH64 last week, and with this board I don't faced the reboot hang behaviour ! Today, since I've committed the OPi3 WIP scripts, and facing same reboot hang, I've decided to to try booting PineH64 image on this OPi3 board, but unfortunately reboot hang still occurs ... This brings me to a conclusion that it is not a software issue, but maybe hardware one ... I will dig on that during next few days by comparing PMIC and other between all those boards ... …

Hello, i'M having this issue with the latest Armbian 5.75 stretch image with updated firmware. When booting with a huwei E303 modem is in the usb port the board fall in a eternal reboot. if i let the board boot as normal an then insert the modem everything is o.k. I tried with 4 others OPI PC+ and others E303 sticks, same thing. also tried with 5.65, same problem. BUT, with an earlier version 5.35 and it boots as normal.

Hey all, I understand these things are in active development at the moment. I was attempting to use the usb 3.0 socket on the lite 2 with stretch, except it did not respond at all - looking at dmesg shows the following error: [ 1.806055] sun4i-usb-phy 5100400.phy: Couldn't get regulator usb0_vbus... Deferring probe [ 1.806320] sun50i-usb3-phy 5210000.phy: failed to get phy clock which from my limited experience with linux kernel seems to indicate that the device tree config may be incorrect for the board - as most searching for these errors show the code added as part of updates to get the pine64 board's usb 3.0 stack working.

Hi, I did a dist-upgrade on my BPi M1. Now it is running on ARMBIAN 5.73 stable Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) 4.7.3-sunxi When I choose a newer kernel in armbian-config after the reboot it is still running with the old kernel. When I do an apt-get upgrade it shows this error in the output: update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-4.20.7-sunxi with 1 The BPi is booting from SSD with LVM. Thank you very much for any help. Regards, Robert

Hi. I would like to ask you how to add and read temperature and humidity from sensor DHT11 on Nano Pi Neo Core 2 with armbian. I want to use PA13 pin (CS form SPI1) I try to enable overlay: sudo modprobe dht11 cat /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0/in_temp_sclae return : -119 When I try add dht11 to overlay in /boot/armbianEnv.txt this module after reboot is still disable. Any suggestions?

I haven't solved the problem of spdif-out on mainline kernel. But, on legacy kernel 3.4.112, spdif-out works. but, has a limitation upt 48khz? doesn't work of 88khz, 96khz, 176khz on my Nanopi Neo Air 1.0. Is it correct to have a limitation. Thanks in advance.

Good day! I've had the Nanopi Neo2 v1.0 for sometime now, used for mostly for NAS solution. the v1.0 is the one being carried by my supplier here. No v1.1 yet Lately I installed armbian monitor to monitor system resources. Then I stumbled upon the min and max frequency when I checked using # cpufreq-info -p 408000 816000 ondemand I've read on some internet writeups that one can set the max frequency to 1008000 tried editing the cpufrequtils scaling_max_freq scaling_available_frequencies scaling_setspeed I was able to lower the minimum frequency to 120000 using the following entry…

Orange pi one refuse to add spi to /dev/. It's 5.73 armbian kernel 4.19.20-sunxi. I've activated spi dev from armbian-config but no device after reboot. Gpio and i2c work great . Anyone had problem like this? Послато са Redmi Note 6 Pro уз помоћ Тапатока

Dear All, first of all, i dont have any orange pi yet, want to have one, perhaps orange pi PC Plus. My main intention is to use as robotic experiment. i have some questions: - is orange pc plus GPIO compatible with raspberry one ? - does shield / module for raspberry works in Orange Pi ? - example : if i want to use "Pimoroni Explorer HAT Pro for Raspberry Pi", can it work in orange pi ? sorry if these euqestion existed before and sorry if wrong forum. thanks.

Hi everyone. I have nano pi neo core 2 with ARMBIAN 5.75 stable Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) 4.19.20-sunxi64. I try to change i2c speed from 100 000 to 400 000. I try: sudo fdtput -t i sun50i-h5-nanopi-neo-core2.dtb i2c0 clock-frequency 400000 Error at 'i2c0': FDT_ERR_BADPATH Anyone have idea how to change i2c speed?

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…

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…

I'm not sure I even want BakeBit. I'm trying to use the GPIO in my NanoPi Neo2. Specifically I want to read a digital I/O pin on/off state. And if possible I'd like to read an analog voltage from the H5's built in ADC. Now that I've looked deeper into BakeBit, it seems like the entire purpose of BakeBit is to do GPIO with an Arduino, and read the information remotely on a RbPi/NanoPi or whatever ON the Arduino's GPIO pins. If that is really what BakeBit is, then BakeBit doesn't interest me. The H5 already has GPIO and an ADC. We just need to get that working. For interest's sake, here is the progress I made with BakeBit. ADC Python example in Bakebit h…

Hi all, Running Armbian Ubuntu 18.04 with stock neo2 4.19.20 kernel I tried installing https://github.com/friendlyarm/WiringNP but after installation `gpio readall` says : "This NanoPi model is currently not supported." However all the wiki's and the Github page says it's supported.......? I can see GPIO in the sys fs at /sys/class/gpio/ but I was hoping to have an easier time with it than manually exporting each pin and calculating offsets for pins with scraps of info online etc. Objective 1: Read a high/low 3.3v/0v status from a GPIO Objective 2: Read an analog voltage, using an ADC. Does the H5 include an ADC? When I look i…

I know Lamobo-r1 has many problems and that the support ended, but it works fine for me. Everything works fine with kernel 4.14.84-sunxi, however, when I update the kernel, the b53 switch does not work anymore. I need to update the kernel to add another wifi usb dongle that seems to work only with newer kernels (https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8812au/issues/272#issuecomment-467983704). Anybody experiencing the same problem? Any ideas for a workaround?

Hi, How to enable TV-OUT on Orange Pi Zero in Armbian mainline ( 4.19.20 - 5.75)??? I saw a post from one year ago with a patch that adds an overlay called tve, but is there a more integrated solution by now? Thank you

Is it possible to add this camera: VGA OV7670 CMOS camera module - 0.3 Megapixel lens / 640X480 to the Orange Pi PC2 H5 64bit? (all info related to my Orange Pi are stored here http://ix.io/1BW3) The ribbon cable fits the socket (although pin numbering are reversed), but I have not found any relevant info googling the internet. I'm wondering if anybody experimented already this coupling. Thank you.

Hi!

hello everyone my Orange Pi A20 does not detect any USB device with the current versions of Stretch or Bionic, but works fine with Wheezy I had try with a printer, a scanner, or USB stick. When something is connected, nothing appears in dmesg or lsusb. Yes...yes...I've been reading the troubleshooting FAQs and Google it for an answer. Change power supply and SD card, etc. But a printer or scanner doesn't consume too much power from the USB, does it? in a last effort I went back to the old Debian Wheezy (downloaded from orangepi.org) and everything works fine. Any help with that? Could it be a kernel parameter o…

Hi. Recently i upgraded to Armbian_5.65_Orangepilite_Debian_stretch_next_4.14.78 and i have two problems.

Hi, after I made a software-update for my Cubitruck last week, my VGA monitor shows text only up to "starting kernel", then turns black. HDMI still works. I tried to reinstall the newest versions of both Ubuntu Bionic and Debian Stretch, both show this problem. The old VGA monitor is used only for maintenance work on my home server and off most of the time, it would be a shame if I had to buy a new HDMI monitor for this purpose. What is going on? Thanks Engelbert

Hi, I just got my hands on a Orange Pi Zero, but when I try to use iscsiadm I get the following message: iscsiadm: iSCSI driver tcp is not loaded. Load the module then retry the command. iscsiadm: Could not perform SendTargets discovery: iSCSI driver not found. Please make sure it is loaded, and retry the operation I have tried to load the module using modprobe, but it does not seem to exist. Any tips?

Hi If i boot my cubieboard2, sometimes it's visible on network, and reachable, sometimes not at all. After that, it isn't changes. No problem with the LAN cable, i've tried two.

Hi, as many did, I've bought a (CSI) OV5647 camera from AliExpress and am struggling to get it to work. Been at it for a week now and am at a loss. So i'm trying to get some clarification via this thread on how to get this camera to work. What I've done so far is to compile a mainline kernel (Ubuntu Bionic) and edited the kernel config file to include sun6i_csi and ov5647 driver. Build finishes successfully and am able to boot and load the drivers Unfortunately the OV5647 isn't recognized and /dev/video0 isn't created. Second build included a userpatch I've found online which i applied to no avail to the kernel https…

(Edit: it's a red herring for me to worry about swap. Please see a few posts down...) Hello. My NanoPi Neo 2 only has 512MB RAM. I'm using it for OpenMediaVault. It starts swapping very badly (totally paralysing it) when I FTP 60GB worth of tiny files into an attached 500GB SSD SATA drive (attached with the NAS kit). Yes, ProFTPd is RAM-hungry! I know how to create and work with traditional linux swap files. I'm a noob to this whole zram thing, which I suspect is more trouble than it's worth. I would prefer to not use zram, and use a traditional swap file on an attached 6TB 3.5" SATA drive (attached over USB 2.0 with UAS). It's a backup dri…

Hi, I’m curious how to boot into command line rather than the GUI desktop when booting up. I have looked at some other answers where changing the `nodm` but that file does not exist. Thanks!

Dear Armbian friends, I have question about add DS18B20 temp sensor at RPi-Monitor (web based interface). Can somebody paste working config of this sensor? On internet I found many tutorials but with DHT sensors. On this page (Xavier is an author of RPi-Monitor I think) is described DS18B20 but in status "Working in progress". I tried this but without luck. https://xavierberger.github.io/RPi-Monitor-docs/32_sensors.html?highlight=ds18b20 Cheers, Lucas

Hi. I want to run the desktop at a 800x600 resolution, to get better FPS at full screen gaming (HDMI screen). I fiddled with OpenGL, and it looks like I got a lot better FPS by just using glshim.
