The "desktop" image for Banana Pi used to be based on Debian Jessie, but now it has been replaced by a Ubuntu xenial based image. For some reason I need the debian image, but after checking https://dl.armbian.com/bananapi/archive/ I did not see the old images. Is it possible to have the old image now? Thanks! (I have been using that jessie desktop image for a long time until just now the SD card died...)

Hi, my problem is that I can't figure out why doesn't wifi access point doesn't show up, after setting up neither with Config utility from the desktop, neither manually from the website documentations help. What am I missing here? First, the Config utility that I'm using it asks me to reboot every time I set it up successfully, but after reboot it doesn't appear anywhere, neither my smartphone won't find the ARMBIAN connection. Second, I tried the way it is documented on the websites help section on how to set up an access point. I've changed the required files with nano, copied and nothing. I haven't used wired internet con…

I run the OPi Zero as a Pihole with etherned, and I would like to minimize power consumption as low as possible. 1. I did change the frequency to be between 120 - 960 Mhz, and ondemand. This probably reduces power and heat too. 2. I'm not sure how to disable USB (I don't need it at all) and WiFi. I read the threads, like this but not sure how to do. Can you please guide me? 3. I saw there are other options too, with a tool h3consuption, but I don't know how to install it and what can I do to squeze down a couple of mW's more. Your help is very much appreciated!

The Orange Pi Zero +2 H3 with USB hat will hard lock up on boot at "Starting Armbian Hardware Monitoring" when booting the latest (and at least one previous) available Buster (and Bullseye) images over HDMI console. Tested on multiple SD cards with the same result. (I will test with serial later, I do not have the time to remove it from the case at the moment; I figured I would post it now in case anyone had a chance to check before I could.)

I have Armbian 4.5 Jessy Legacy 3.4.109 running in the internal NAND and tried to do apt-get update+upgrade what bricked the device. As precaution I setup an identical system on a CubieBoard 2, where the upgrade went fine. After two days of testing on this test board, I tried it the same way on my real server but it failed. The board is not completely bricked, but network is not working anymore which limits my access dramatically.

Looking for recommended LCD screens for NanoPi Neo and Orange Pi Zero. I have some IoT ideas I want to explore. Does not have to be touch, and I'm pretty flexible on screen size. Actually, would like a couple of different screen sizes but bigger than an 128x64 OLED (I have that). Must be color. At least 320x240, preferably something 320x480. I just got two Orange Pi Zero systems today and want to create a couple of IoT devices along with the two NanoPi Neo systems I got recently. Performance does NOT have to be ideal, just reasonable (not going to game on it or watch action movies). The Zero means HDMI is not an option; given that, what interface is best - …

I have my Orange Pi Zero flashed correctly (I think) with the green light solid and the red light flashing on every so often. I've got the unit plugged into a charger that provides sufficient power. The devices SoC warms up hinting that it is actually booting. When plugged into my network the activity LEDs do not flash nor does my router detect it. I'm considering connecting my keyboard to connect it to wifi blind. If I plug it in after boot nothing changes. What should I do? How can I connect it to my wifi blind? I do not have the shield for video out.

Hello, My hardware is BananaPi and I would like to enable early KMS start. As per https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Kernel_mode_setting#Early_KMS_start , I need to add "the display driver kernel module" to initramfs. With a normal x86 PC, the kernel module to add would be 'i915', 'radeon' or 'nouveau'. But I'm a bit confused with the sunxi hardware. Which module am I supposed to add? Thanks!

I've been using a Cubieboard2 and I have been struggling to get the SPI to work. I've edited the armbianEnv.txt and added the spi0 and spi-spidev to the overlay line. I see the overlays being loaded and I get (only when I've got the spi-spidev overlay on) a /dev/spi0.0 In the dmesg I see a line like "scanning for SPI0 on DT" (paraphrasing as I don't have the screen in front of me ATM.)

Hello, I wanted to upgrade my Bananapi M1. So I downloaded "Buster minimal" from https://www.armbian.com/bananapi/ Last modified: 2020-02-17. I flashed the image to my SD card and started the SBC. But nothing happened. I got no heartbeat LED nor HDMI output. (I know from my Tinkerboard that I have to boot without connected HDMI to start correct. I did this with the bananapi too.) So I tried different variants: Bionic server, Buster server and Buster desktop. I never had a video output. I cross checked with my old raspian lite from 2016. With this image the Bananapi works. I used dd and Etcher for SD card preparation. What am I doing wrong? Can I us…

Is this the right place to post this type of content? I have a board for Orange Pi. Since I'm usually using windows, it's very inconvenient to burn u-boot.

I'm trying to configure the CS (Chip Select) pin on my Orange Pi Zero 3. I added overlays=spi-spidev to the /boot/armbianEnv.txt file, created my own dtbo file, and tried all possible methods suggested by ChatGPT. I've been struggling for two weeks with no success. I haven't been able to switch the CE1 pin to alt4 state; it only stays off, nothing else. Is it even possible to work with SPI on this board?

Hey kids, it is me, again! So, this time I found out (well, you maybe knew it before and I am dumbing around again) that voltage control does not work on Banana Pi (at least) mainline kernel. Well, if I am supposed to change it in linux-mainline/arch/arm/boot/dts/sun7i-a20.dtsi. I tried to reach 1248000kHz, which is, of course, unstable. So I was adding and adding voltage, until I was too afraid to continue (1650000mV ). But BananaPi was unstable the same way (freez after few minutes of FTP transfer), no more (bad charger) or no less (would still need more voltage). So after few hours of re-compiling source and listening wonderful music I tried this: 1248000(kHz)…

Hello again, since I use the NAND-Flash to boot and I want to use the new kernel, which doesnt support NAND yet, I'm curious if its possible to use both: 1. Can I boot the new kernel from NAND? Since the new kernel is started after uboot, it should be possible? 2. Afterwards I have no possibility to update the kernel again. Or do I have? (Without SD-Card) a.) the nand-tools requires the nand-driver??? Or is there a possibility to writea prebuild image to nand without kernel-nand-support? b.) is it possible to start an old kernel from the new for upgrading? Tried "kexec uImage", but it doesnt work. Maybe I need the zImage instead of uImage? best regards

I wanted to try 3.4 to see if I could build FFmpeg with the legacy Kernel. When I run any of the three (Trusty, Jessie, Wheezy) as soon as the script says starting Kernel, I get a few blue and green noise lines on the screen and then the screen disappears. I can use SSH and.the system is booting up and running. The one thing that I noticed is that when I log on, the name of the machine is LIME instead of MICRO. I'm running an Olimex Olinuxino Micro. Is there a config file that I need to tweek, or is the Kernel setup for a LIME? thanks MikeC

Hi! I plan to use a Banana Pi as a file server and install the system on the hard drive. The documentation page says: SATA/USB: pre-partitioned SATA or USB storage How does the nand-sata-install script work? Will I need to pre-partition my hard drive or will the script do it? Will it just partition it as one big ext4? Is it possible to make at least two partitions, one for the system and one for the files?

Hello Everybody I'm using olimex olinuxino lime2. I'm to expiriment on real time linux. I could build the kernel with the real time patch by disabling newer kernel patches, .108 and on, but I would really like to have a ticking system. There are not options for this in the kernel menu configuration. Just tickless system. That may cause some extra delays on realtime processes. Is there a way to configure tick frequency at 1khz?

Hi I need to set static IP in eth0 and wlan0 in my OPi Zero using ARMBIAN Jessie. Googling around, I read a lot of controversial options, like edit /etc/network/interfaces and use nmtui, but, I couldn't set BOTH eth0 and wlan0 to a static IP. If I do it for eth0, wlan0 doesn't work and vice-versa. One guy said that after Debian Jessie version (https://nebulousthinking.wordpress.com/2016/02/25/setting-a-static-ip-for-raspbian-jessie-in-2016/), some things changed to set up static IP. Now, from Jessie, we need to edit /etc/ dhcpcd.conf, but, where is it ( dhcpcd.conf )? Can someone instruct me about how to set static IP, please? Sergio

Hi, I have an Opi+2 board and I want to overclock it. Assuming that I have a proper cooling, how can I do that? I want to overclock it to 1.6Ghz.

I got that stability issues on my banana pi m1, and notice that the last kernel available on armbian still the 4.14.18. Today I also run apt upgrade on raspberry pi 3 and it installed the kernel 4.14.30 that stop the ipsec vpn working, the same as in 4.14.18 used on armbian. I feel some frustration on the latest kernel updates, and wondering if anyone have some info about the next kernel update that solve this issues. Do you advise me to change to nightly builds to get a new kernel to test? สมัครufabet Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

These boards are well suited to routing/network traffic control functionality. Currently the kernel has been compiled with Traffic Control stuff disabled, which makes it impossible to perform traffic shaping on stock Armbian kernel. I'm busy recompiling the kernel as a temporary solution, but I will really appreciate it if the kernel build maintainer can please change the traffic control options from DISABLED to MODULE (at least)? I have a bunch of Armbian boards but I'm testing with NanoPi Neo 2 right now. --- I'll let you know the size of the modules once I've finished compiling.

Hello! I’m using Armbian 25.2 image. It seems there is a bug in the device tree. I have enabled ethernet@5030000. But ethernet doesn’t work. Does anyone know where to find the tree with the correct description of the ethernet@5030000 node for use with internal phy?

hello i have a new sbc board cubie a5e 1GB Ram starting via sdcard 32GB and tried to boot it with armbian cli image. Very early while the boards stuck with: RADXA Cubie A5E 1GB RAM Armbian CLI stuck while uboot via sdcard seems to be an issue with the uboot which hangs very early. With original debian image from radxa the board is b ooting and running. But i intend to use the armbian version with newer debian and kernel. What can i do? Regards Rolf

Greetz // Pozdrav vsem uporabnikom vsezmagovalcev! I am planning to use my Cubietruck for a general-purpose desktop computer to surf the internet, write documents, watch movies (youtube, VLC, lan/dlna), etc. Basically I'd like to install a lightweight desktop image on it and connect it to my SmartTV in the living room via a short HDMI cable. I'll probably need video acceleration for a 1080p resolution. Thing is I'm currently in a bit of a dilemma because there are so many premade images out there, and most of them seem outdated. Can you recommend me which image to use for my goal (possibly a LTS release)? I've been leaning towards Lubuntu, but I see debian has som…

So I just received a couple of Orange Pi Zeros. I thought for a fun first project I'd port the pi-hole project. The Pi-Hole project creates a black hole / dns server for your home network that filters out lots of extraneous advertising. Its a pretty nice project. Reference: https://pi-hole.net/and https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole I ended up using a semi automatic install for pi-hole: git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/pi-hole/pi-hole.git Pi-hole cd Pi-hole/automated_installer/ bash basic-install.sh There was one hiccup. The admin page for the pi-hole (run on your local network) in the browser includes a header that conveniently shows CPU temperatur…

The old 0.14.0 version doesn't work well with subtitles, ending up with subtitles drawing on top of each others, when the text is moving fast. Is there any build I could download and install? Or some other workaround? Edit: Kodi draws the subtitles correctly, but it has pretty awful screen tearing. Using black bloxes instead of just some outline on the subtitles does work, but it's not an acceptable fix to me. So, it would be great it was possible to use whatever kodi uses to draw the subtitles, but then use mpv to draw the video.

I have couple H3 and A20 devices and all run fine except one - Opi Lite, running latest Arbian (5.26) with built in wifi connected does not close SSH session upon reboot/poweroff. The session eventually times out on client but sometimes I have to kill it manually. There are no modifications to PAM nor systemd-logind configurations and the configuration is exactly the same as on other devices. I'm wondering what may cause this misbehaviour, and how can I fix this? (This topic was created yesterday before db failure/site update and I can't find it now on restored site, I guess it has been lost)

Hi everybody, I'm new to this forum so first let me say a big THANK YOU to the armbian team for the excellent work. I've been playing around with my orange pi pc for a while now, not really wanting to spend much time on it (family, children, work, you know the story) or dig into details, and did not find any PnP distro that was 100% satisfactory (always something missing, unstable,...), until I gave a try to armbian. Apart from a weird kernel panic at the end of every shutdown, everytying is running smoothly so far. I'm now in the process of installing OctoPrint to drive my 3D printer and I am facing a problem with python virtualenv. Basically trying to execute…

I am trying to setup a logitech squeezebox server on an Orange Pi Zero so that it can be carried around and serve my collection from a large micro-sd card. This is the 3rd iteration of this already (first was given as a gift, 2nd got fried by 12V, and now this one) and in the past I've been using hostapd to connect while away from home. I'd like to explore the possibility of using a Bluetooth Personal Area network, but I am not sure if there is a stack that can achieve this for me. The idea is that I would use bluetooth instead of wifi to connect to the orange pi zero and establish a tcp/ip connection that would allow me to control the server using the phone…

Anybody know how install ARDUINO IDE on ARMBIAN orange pi pc 2? Can I drop tar archive to home/pi/arduino

I'm using Armbian 5.38 stable Debian stretch 4.14.14-sunxi on A20 Lime2. I try to use PGxx pins (connector GPIO-1 on board), without any luck. I know i must use formula (position of letter in alphabet - 1) * 32 + pin number, so i have tried (for PG11): echo 203 > /sys/class/gpio/export echo out > /sys/class/gpio/gpio203/direction echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/203/value but nothing happened. I tried from 192 to 203 (PG00 to PG11), but nothing happened. On the same connector (GPIO-1), PC23, PC18 and PB23 work perfectly. What am i doing wrong?

I have a encrypted external hard drive connected via USB. I want to be able to automatically access it after boot so I made a keyfile that I put in /etc/crypttab. After updating the crypttab file I ran update-initramfs -u. But after reboot the drive is still locked. Why is this? I suspect it might be because of the order of things at boot. Maybe crypttab is called before the USB device is initialized? Any help would be appreciated. Edit: I had a incorrect crypttab that's why it didn't mount. It works now thanks!

Hi, I am trying to use the SPI interface on the board GPIOs of a BananaPi M1+. I have started the latest version of Armbian available for this board (Armbian_19.11.6_Bananapi_bionic_current_5.4.8) and after the initial configuration the "/boot/armbianEnv.txt" file has the following added lines: fdtfile=sun7i-a20-bananapi-m1-plus.dtb overlays=spi-add-cs1 spi-spidev param_spidev_spi_bus=0 I have rebooted but I am unable to use the spidevX.Y under the "/dev" folder. What am I missing? NOTE: I have tried several combinations of values on the armbianEnv.txt configuration file (ie: using only overlays flags without the other ones, using only the spi-spidev flag,…

Armbianmonitor: http://ix.io/2g5I I recently started playing around with OrangePi Zero with the Allwinner H2+ CPU. I want to test out the internal audio DAC. To do so I enabled "analog-coded" in armbian-config. After rebooting I saw a new audio device in the output of "pacmd list-cards", but it says that only mono is available. How can I configure stereo sound? I haven't played around with "/etc/asound.conf" much as I don't understand it. Also, I don't have anything plugged into the audio pins on the GPIO.

Hello, I installed Armbian (image from here https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-lite/ [Buster / mainline based kernel 5.4.y]). After booting on OPi Lite everithing works fine.

Desktop was downloaded and installed successfully (with armbian-config). Everything works fine. After reboot, shutdown, turn off by unplugging the cable, Armbian on my OPi Lite does not wake up anymore. When I will load this image again, everything works fine by the time I will download and install desktop and turn off the board. I have tried other di…

After flashing the sd card with armbian and booting it, it asks me to enter the root password, however the keyboard that is plugged in isnt detected and nothing is typed on the screen. Ive already tried bookworm and jammy, both cli and minimal-cli variants. It is not a keyboard or usb related issue, i tested it with an older version of armbian and the keyboard still works.

Hi, Recently while I was using the banana pro, it locked itself up and I had to manually pull out the power. And after that, it cannot boot anymore with armbian or bananian, the red light turned on and thats it, no more activities. :-( But with lemaker's oficial image it can boot up normally. What could be the problem? Do I have a faulty hardware? Thanks!

Hi again guys, I buy some usb wireless boards to connect to the GPIO with the UART Pines, but in the especifications of the GPIO, only i see 1: Has you can see only GPIO 14 and 15 have TXD and RXD... I will use too the SPI to add other ethernet so... its possible use other GPIO for TXD and RXD?? In my Pixhawk (board for drones) i use I2C for monitoring stats via wireless (2.4Ghz), maybe this pines can work for usb wireless. If is possible, how can i program other pines for that? will be any diference? (more slow or more cpu resources or whatever?) Thanks like always!

Edit: Nothing was wrong with the Orange PI. I turned out to be my switch. Hi All, Firstly, Armbian is just fantastic. Secondly, this issue is highly likely to have nothing to do with Armbian, but just the cheap crap you'd expect from a cheap SBC. Essentially, after much pain and anguish having bizarre Ethernet connectivity issues with a shiny new Orange PI PC I bought a couple of days, which was: 1. When OPI was connected my network switch (which has four other devices connected to it: two Ethernet and two WiFi), none of the other devices can reliably 'ping' or SSH to the OPI... 25% to 100% packet loss. 2. When connecting the OPI physically directly to ex…

Hey. I'm not sure if I perhaps caught the Armbian website in the middle of an update, but there doesn't seem to be any Ubuntu (Xenial) builds for H3 boards anymore ... with the exception of the NanoPi Neo. It's all Legacy Jessie builds right now. Thanks,

Hi everyone i got my ILI9341 TFT 2.4" display to work on armbian but the screen is cut off? i have no idea on how to fix this Orange Pi One

Hi there, My question is to Orange Pi Zero owners. I've read is has DDR3 RAM shared with GPU. What is a minimum value of GPU memory? I'm looking for headless setup so it would be good to know how much memory can be used by OS. Thank you in advance.

Have not been able to confirm if it is possible for the Orange Pi Zero to act as a virtual mass storage device. I would like to be able to plug this into a device and have that device treat the Pi Zero as a USB drive, and write to the on board SD as such. I believe this requires USB on the go so that the device can be USB slave. Any input on the topic is appreciated. I know the Raspberry Pi Zero W supports this, but I think i will have better luck with the wireless having an external antenna on the Orange Pi Zero.
