I used armbianmonitor -r on my OPi Zero just like I did previously on OPi One. On OPi One everything is working fine. On my zero it doesn't display all the information for CPU. It shows: CPU total: undefined% (Sys: undefined%, User: undefined%, I/O wait: undefined%, Nice: undefined%) CPU frequency: 1.008GHz DRAM frequency: Not available Governor: ondemand Active CPU cores: 4 Vcore: undefined If I run armbianmonitor -m it shows these data I checked Allwinner_H3_Extended.conf and I noticed that it reads files from /tmp (/tmp/cpustat, /tmp/disktemp, e.t.c) On my OPi One I see these files On OPi Zero there is no rpim…

Just as the title says. I have taken the current version of debian armbian from the archives, flashed this onto a micro sd card and then installed the mainline kernel packages over this. It boots to a login prompt, but after a few seconds the whole system locks up. Does anyone have any idea what coudl cause this?

I'm looking at GPIOs and I'm not sure - can I buy an "old" (26 pin) Raspberry Pi gpio adapter-breadboard-cable package (like this one) and use it on Orange Pi Zero GPIOs as on Raspberry Pi GPIOs?

Hi, I know it's a waste of time to play with an old bananapi pro but I think I could do it so I want to do it ! I can't make working PCM5102a DAC.

hi all I'm the owner of a Cubieboard1 (A10) running Armbian 5.31 Debian Jessie, kernel 4.11.5 (recently upgraded) I'm not quite sure when it happened (normally it stays up&running continuously), but recently I needed to reboot it and it simply shuts down, with no subsequent boot I've tried multiple times, upgraded the kernel, tried both via GUI and trough cli,.... no way: it simply stops, and I need to push the power on button I've not been able to find any glimpdr on the logs Obiouvsly it is quite annoying, especially for remote management Do you have any idea on the possible causes, troubleshooting etc…

Hi, Seen some posts where mentioning that depending of the version of kernel there is either FEX or DTS usage, old ones called Legacy, using FEX to define GPIOs and Peripherals pins. Wit Mainline Kernel, is using DTS. Yet in the recent kernel (dev) armbian builds, eg armbian 5.21, kernel 4.7.6 (on H3, NEO), seen the /boot containing all the FEX stuff script.bin etc. Is FEX still used in the mainline kernel builds?

Heya, Configuration :: Friendlyarm NanoPi Neo (Allwinner H3) Matrix TFT2.8 (https://www.friendlyarm.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=102) Armbian Release: Bionic 5.8.y found here: https://www.armbian.com/nanopi-neo/ I have this st7789v-based display working on spi0.0 by utilising a custom overlay tft28.dts as below, but I cannot get the ads7846 touchscreen controller to use an additional gpio chip select (ie: spi0.1) because the ads7846 driver seems to be holding that additional cs line in a 'logic 0' state at zero volts.

I built an adapter for a SPI interface SD Card Reader (https://www.ebay.com/itm/161201009722). I'm assuming I need to add in an overlay to make this reader show up, but I am not sure what that should be.

Hello, I use the desktop version of Legacy with my Cubietruck. My problem is that I can’t launch Kodi. I installed it with 'sudo apt-get install kodi' but If I start the program I have a black screen and then kodi is closed. I reinstalled Kodi and updated the system. But the problem was not solve. Have anyone an idea how I can solve this problem?

I just reinstalled my Cubietruck with the Debian jessie, image from http://mirror.igorpecovnik.com/Cubietruck_Debian_4.1_jessie_3.4.108.zip. Only one core is available. What could I do so that the two cores are detected? For what it's worth, the bootloader briefly displays a "checksum error" message. Could it be that I'm still using the old bootloader from the previous installation? (It was Debian wheezy in summer 2014.) Thanks in advance for advice.

I read few in the net about the ahci-driver of the A20-Board. I have a Cubietruck and I want to use a hdd with more than 2TB. Is it - theoretical or in principal possible? My HDD is found but only 2TB of it.

Apologies if this is documented/reported somewhere else, but I can't see anything on a quick forum search. I received two Orange Pi Zeros this morning, and eagerly downloaded the Orange Pi Zero flavour of Armbian (Xenial Legacy) and loaded it up on a good 8GB microSD. I then started using it, updating it, and suddenly realised that it only had a 1.4GB partition when it failed to finish updating due to insufficient space. I thought since I'd had some issues logging into it that I might have interrupted the first boot resize, so I re-imaged it, and loaded it up, left if five minutes, and then logged. No cigar... says it is still 1.4GB (1.4GB size, 1.2GB used, 2…

Hello everybody. Faced such a problem. When connecting to the HDMI port of the monitor, no image is displayed on the monitor. More precisely, the line at boot time is visible, but the desktop is not displayed. If you connect to a TV via HDMI port, there is an image. I connect OrangePi Plus 2, via HDMI-HDMI cable. Monitor LG FLATRON 27EA33V-BB. Why is that such a problem on armbian and retroorange assemblies. But the assembly of DietPi on the monitor image displays .. The systemist under win7 also without any problems displays the image always. Tell me where to find the solution to the problem. I tried changing the modes with the 'h3disp' utility.

Hi, I have a Opi+2 board which has an Armbian system installed in its emmc. Now I want to format its Emmc and reinstall Armbian but the problem is I don't have a proper SD card. So I need to do it without an SD card. I have a running system on it, so I can reach the working system. Is there a way of formating it while its running? For example a command does the same thing with "dd if=armbian.img of="/dev/mmcblk1"" (which won't work while there is a system working, its just an example) (mmcblk1 = working system, emmc)

According to the specs of the OP PC Plus, it only supports 32GB micro SD. My only 32GB that I have, that I was booting from on the OP PC plus eventually got corrupted, and will not boot, can't format and install armbian or anything. What are my options? Can I somehow boot from a 64GB micro sdcard, or USB from a fresh armbian image write?

Hello! I am on the forum to ask you some questions that I am not able to find the answers to. I bought a 3D printer kit on Aliexpress.com including an Orange pi 3 LTS board.

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!

Before remaking any modification i prefer to be certain, do i really need to modify this files? And in particular this lines? /*Part of the files (Uart0 and Uart1)…

Hi. I'm using "Orangepi-r1_focal_current_5.8.5" Armbian. I'm connected to it via Wifi. Everything working fine, but after few hours, I notice that it is no longer showing on my network. If I connect by cable I can ssh to it via ethernet without any issue and it stays available for several days without disconnecting. Any idea why this happens? when Wifi disconnects I will have to reboot to show it again. And I am not running any program on it. Is orange pi r1 wifi like orange pi zero wifi suffering from poor software support?

I've created an armbian minimal image for my pinebook with luks encryption.

I don't want to install plymouth, just the usual LUKS password prompt. Thanks!

Hello, at first I want to thank you for your great work Igor 2 Days ago I installed the new version 5.00 Vanilla Kernel armbian for BananaPro on my SD card. And I was so glad to finally see a working wifi for BananaPro with mainline kernel. Today I did an apt-get update and apt-get upgrade. Ever since there is no more a wlan0 interface. Have tried ifconfig and iwconfig. It seems to be, that there was installed a new kernel image. What can we do to get it working again? Also ReleaseHistory says there is a version 5.01 but the download link for BananaPro Vanilla Jessie still leads to a version 5.00 link. Kind regards Wolf

My cubietruck mac address which I am assuming is auto generated is invalid. Though one would think it should work, other software on routers will not accept the mac as valid, and thus I can not add configurations to it. We probably need a layer somewhere to create 'valid' mac addresses. 02:C2:07:C0:B7:C7 is the generated mac that my cubietruck is currently using which software claims is invalid.

I have an Olinuxino A20. Armbian has no HDMI sound and the video playback is a bit painful.

If so, can someone guide me a little on how to do it? Thank you very much.

I have found this post, but I was not able to install docker because I found 2 problem that I don't know how to solve. 1. Installing docker using armbian-config does not work. I install armbian-config, run it as su/sudo, choose docker and install. The installer does something and after it's done it returns me to the same screen where I have chosen docker to be installed. So, no confirmation that I hav…

Hi, I'm using fbtft with legacy kernel in orange pi zero to be able to use 3.5 inch raspberry LCD with ILI9486 (not sure). Everything works and I can get image from the LCD (although it is terribly slow). But I have one big problem. LCD freezes after some time or when screen screen changes or even sometimes during initialization . Is there anything wrong with the spi driver in armbian ? How can I get over this issue ? I'm sure there is nothing wrong with the lcd because I have tested same lcd on raspberry pi and I have about 500 of these lcds for a project. This is the my fbtft options : modprobe fbtft_device custom name=fb_ili9486 gpios=dc:18,reset:2 busnu…

The documentation on the Orange Pi Zero Plus 2 is somewhat scarce. I couldn't find information on the GPIO map for the 26-pin header anywhere, but I manually mapped it. I did this with an LED on each successive pin and testing through the /sys/class/gpio driver until I found the one to control it. This caused a bunch of resets and eventually corrupted my sd card, but I got the info Each of the numbers below is the GPIO number used for /sys/class/gpio. For example, 110 means gpio110. The list is by pin number from 1 to 26. A value of -1 means unavailable (as far as I could discover): -1, -1, 12, -1 (pin 1,2,3,4) 11,-1,6,0 (pin 5,6,7,8) -1…

Hi Everyone. I have been looking for a way to connect this keypad directly to my Orange Pi PC+ directly through gpio without resistors. https://www.adafruit.com/product/1332 I also need software (hopefully either bash or python) to read a key press and then either run a script or perform a command. If anyone here done this or even connected 1 switch to gpio (without resistors), could you please post the solution or a link to follow. Thanks. V

I flashed the Armbian 5.35 4.13.16 image and at boot time I sometimes got faults and the OS doesnt boot. The clean install also produced sometimes the error or warning but I started to customize the system with enabling overlays and now its cant boot. I restored the initial state of the uEnv through my computer but the bug is still running. I copied the messages to pastebin: http://pastebin.com/2NUGVnqt I dont know where can I start the debugging and how to find what is wrong. I have C skills but I never debug the kernel so its a good time to start, but first it is a serious bug because the system is useless.

Hello, all. My Orange Pi PC2 recently broke when doing an upgrade. So I hooked a serial cable to it and watched what it did. The error was that it couldn't find the dtb file. It was looking for "/boot/dtb/allwinner/allwinner/sun50i-h5-orangepi-pc2.dtb" and "/dtb/allwinner/allwinner/sun50i-h5-orangepi-pc2.dtb", but the former fails because the file is at "/boot/dtb/allwinner/sun50i-h5-orangepi-pc2.dtb". So, I put a simlink in dtb/allwinner called 'allwinner' and pointing to the parent directory. Now the device boots. I'm not sure if that's the proper fix, but it works for now and I'll fix it if I manage to break something with it later on. Thi…

I'm having trouble porting some WiringPi programs to my NanoPi Neo. I have an original neo v1.0 running the latest armbian stretch (as of Oct 04 2018). Have tried several, including mstroh76/WiringNP, and can compile, but programs hang when executed. I'm okay if this is the deep-end of the pool but I wanted to verify that I an indeed in deep waters or if I'm doing something dumb and really in the shallow waters and all I have to do is stand up to get my head out of the water. Which WiringPi library should I be using for C language programs on a NanoPi NEO v1.0 running a recent Armbina Stretch release?

Hello. I am trying to work with a 7-Segment LED Display Module (HT16K33) in a Orange Pi +2e, but I don't know how to start... Any iddea? Thank you in advance.

Dear Igor, first of all: Thank you very much for the work on armbian! My problem now is: I installed armbian on my cubieboard 2 (on 16 GB SD card) and first everthing went fine. I did all the management via putty and ssh but since a couple of days I can't ssh anymore. That means, ssh login with username and password is succesful, but I do not get any command line. Besides I get a couple of other problems: One is, when I boot up, I takes about 10 min, since problems with "LSB", this means: It takes about 5 minutes withe the message: "a start job is running for LSB: raise network interfaces" Similiar problems occur during shutting down the system (…

I need some help with this LCD https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CMD7Y55M?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share, i bought it since i verified whith the always unreliable AI GPT if it would work with my Orange Pi since i want to use the screen in my klipper 3d printer. Now im stuck since the available driver from the manufacturer are only for the Arduino and RP2040. I verified evrywhere and could only find one github but that one did not work for me and there are no tutorials of how to work with this. Does some one have any idea of how to make this run or work?. Just in case my wiring is as follows:

Hello, I know one should't ask or complain here regarding the dev kernel branch, but maybe somebody of you stumbled upon this and knows where to point me: I successfully build and used the "dev" kernel several times for the BananaPi (Allwinner A20 Soc) and it works just fine. The patch regarding the axp209 sysfs interface can simply be taken over from the from the "next" kernel branch and you get a working temperture reading from the axp209 pmu. I still haven't managed to get the internal soc's temperature sensor working in dev kernel, though. I know it has something to do with the touchscreen driver but couldn't find out what exactly is required to make it…

My 2 zeropi cards get new mac addresses at each reboot which is quite annoying for DHCP configuration If I rollback to 5.4.30 kernel the issue disappears. When using this kernel I get a 02:81 address for the two cards. When using current kernel the mac address seems totally random

Hi, I bought about a year ago an orange pi plus. Just a few weeks ago, i tryed the new distro's I love to have debian on the board. And like your distro verry much. I have 2 problems: 1) If i download the file for orangepiplus, the board does nothing. No leds go on, no grafics on screen, nothing I also tryed at home compiling it myself. The result is the same nothing. My Orange Pi Plus has an H3 processor - it is one of the first OrangePi Plus boards. (Is this an error in your piplus distro - just because loborus for piplus works) 2) If i download the orangepih3 file, the board will startup. I can not run sata-nand, because i get an error - abo…

Hello everyone, Apologies if this is not the right forum for this questions, but could not find any more appropriate one after some searching. I get an HTTP 404 when I try to access the pre-built images for the nanopi m1 plus from the board page. I know the board is EOS but for other EOS boards I can still download the images. Is there any reason why this board seems to have disappeared completely ?

Hi, I'm using the Igor-Image: Linux cubieboard2 4.0.5-cubietruck #12 SMP Thu Jun 11 19:18:02 CEST 2015 armv7l GNU/Linux I installed a program that is using a PID-file, normally under: /var/run/fhem/fhem.pid I created a sub-folder and changed the owner and permissions. With the next reboot, all changes where lost. I noticed that the /var/run is linked to /run and this is a tmpfs. So, is there an option to add a subdirectory permanently to /run? Alternatively I will add a short script, that will do these operations after reboot, but in my opinion, that is not the fancy way... greets brenndorfler

Hello, I have a custom board with A20 and I like to share the UART7(I20/I21) pins. I mean sometimes used as UART and other times used as output ports. Should I always change the FEX file to use one u other functionality. The perfect way is using both option without restart the system. Thanks!

Hello, I am curious to hear how accurate the measurement of temperature is from the onboard sensors, particularly in my case for the Banana Pi M2+. While I do understand that the BPi M2+ suffered from poor choices for thermal management from the manufacturer both in hardware and software, I believe that thankfully Armbian has worked out the kinks on the software side, hasn't it? I am running the latest noble image, here's what I noticed. The temperature as shown by the sensors and armbianmonitor commands never really goes below 60° even on idle with ambient temperatures of around 25 to 30 degrees. My SBC already came with a small heatsink attach…

Hello, I recently purchased a Banana Pi M2, and downloaded the latest desktop image to my SanDisk 32gb MicroSD card. Everything boots-up. However, the only interface that seems to be able to get onto the internet properly is wlan0 (Wireless). Ethernet, regardless of DHCP (registers properly) or Static does not seem to route properly. For example, I am not able to ping or SSH the device from another PC, and the Pi (itself) cannot ping/access any local IPv4 address as well. Internet access fails, and points to DNS not working properly (even though servers are specified). Tried many different methods, including taking management/control away from "NetworkManager", but …
