Hi all, Igor: I wanted to say many thank you and congratulate for the awesome job you made with armbian! I have a little big problem: I'm using the BPI-R1 (a.k.a. Lamobo R1 Linux version 4.2.0-sunxi (root@kitchen) (gcc version 4.8.2 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.8.2-16ubuntu4)) but out of the blue I got the well known problem of the RCP reset to the 1970. I followed the instructions reported here https://github.com/igorpecovnik/lib/issues/111#issuecomment-145634651 but I got some strange issues 1) If I plug my USB keyboard I cannot interrupt the boot process to get a shell before the kernel loads. 2) If I change my boot.cmd and update the boot.scr settings with verbosity=9 an…

Hi, during the spring I used h3disp - 720p50 -c 1 (on 5.24 with sunxi-tools 1.4.2) to change the resolution for my desktop but today when I did a clean install (armbian 5.30 Jessie Default) I get Unsupported board/kernel combination: Orange Pi Zero running 3.4.113-sun8i. Exiting Is there still a way to change the resolution (720x576 is too low for the gui app I need to run)? Thanks in advance! Nicke

I've got a fresh Orange Pi PC Plus 2 with the relevant Armbian loaded onto a new card. It seems to output just fine to HDMI on my workbench at home, using a relatively new monitor and a direct HDMI cable, but when I try other monitors I get inconsistent results. One is a Quimat 7-inch display that just shows a white backlight when connected to the OPi. However that display has issues with other boards so I'm not entirely worried about it. But the other display is a fairly modern ViewSonic monitor that exhibits a more confusing behavior. The monitor only has DVI/VGA so I'm connecting to it through a passive HDMI-DVI adapter. When I boot the board, the POST screen shows up …

Hi all, I've connected a Serial-TTL converter to my Macbook Pro on one side, and an OrangePi Zero on the other, when I power up the Zero, I'm getting the following, what looks like an output with missing characters: I'm connecting with "sudo screen /dev/cu.usbserial 115200" and the adapter's driver in the network connections is set to 115200. The adapter is an Adafruit USB to TTL Serial Cable with a Prolific chipset. Any ideas?

Hi all, first of all, I really like the dev-tools! I successfully developed my own Image (incl. patches etc.) and it's running great. But now I want to "burn" it to the Orange Pi's emmc directly, without using nand-sata-install ... it's necessary, because the target-image does not allow shell- and/or ssh-access (for purpose). So I flashed a "normal" armbian-image to my sd-card, copied my own image-file to the card, booted the card and wanted to 'dd' my image to /dev/mmcblk1. Everything went fine till now ... after rebooting w/o the sd-card plugged in, the loader hangs in a loop (Rebooting within 10 seconds) :/ I looked into the nand-sata-install-sc…

Hi, I am new to the Armbian. I have build the kernel for BananaPi M2+ using the instruction specified in Armbian document for Building with Vagrant. I could see the output file "linux-image-sun8i-5.59.armhf.deb" in the "output/debs" folder. Know I don't know how to download or install this file on the SD card which is running on my bananaPi M2+. Bascically I need guidance on how to transfer my kernel build image from my windows PC to the SD card which I will be using to test the Bananapi M2+ board. Any help or documents will be highly appreciated.

Hi, is it possible to run xfce4 on mainline on a Orange Pi Zero? I'm doing it with jessie legacy (I need to have a mumble client running, accessing it with X11vnc) but I wanted to upgrade.

After some months not using my OrangePi One, yesterday I installed Armbian 5.90 buster 4.19.57 (previously I had a stretch release). I did a clean install, downloading the image and burning the microSD with it. I noticed the button now works for 1st time since I bought the OrangePi One. It shuts down the device, no need to install or configure nothing. But, previous Armbian versions I had, were able to set the machine CPU speed at 1.2 and 1.1 GHz. Now (with Armbian 5.90) the maximum is 1 GHz. On previous releases, the file /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy0/scaling_available_frequencies contained: 240000 480000 648000 816000 912000 9…

Hello! I had a problem. I noticed for the third time in a week. After one day of standby (idle) is disabled WLAN. Not connected for SSH. It is unacceptable. How to fix it? ------------------------------------------------------------- BananaPi Pro (yellow/black) Vanilla Jessie.

Hello. First of all sorry if this isn't a place to post this. I recently bought an orange pi one. And I'm using Armbian OS. (Latest version downloaded from Armbian website) But there seems to be a problem with WiFi and i searched all over the internet and i didn't found anything about it. So here is how it was: First time that i wrote the Armbian OS on the SD card and configured it (as said by the Armbian website I didn't connected the WiFi dongle) and after doing those stuff I did connected the WiFi dongle to it. It worked fine, but after some mins both LEDs were on. And nothing was working. I did the things I said above many times and the same happend. And once I d…

I'm testing the nightly image: Armbian_5.32.170704_Nanopineo2_Ubuntu_xenial_dev_4.11.8.img I read somewhere that the NanoPi Neo2 has a shutdown issue where it reboots.

Hello, after the usual apt update/apt upgrade the OS requested a reboot. However it then fails to boot. Here's the output of the console: I guess the critical stuff is what I marked in bold? So what happened here and what to do to recover? Not keen to reinstall the whole OS... Edit: I pulled th SD-Card and read it from a Linux PC. When I take a look at /boot/boot.scr it is clearly corrupted! If I'm correct there's binary data inside, however in the hexdata I can see some segments with ASCII text fragments inside that releates to my private data (e.g. names of mp3 files!!) and that shoud definitely not be in boot.scr.

Hi there, I am using Workstation edition on OPi PC+, system quite up to date. Problem: wired ethernet looks hardwired to DHCP (client) and I want to use static address(es).

As I told on another topic, yesterday I installed Armbian 5.90 buster 4.19.57 on my OrangePi One. Now, when it boots, all the output text goes to the bottom line of the screen, with each line overwritting the previous one (no scroll). Then it asks for username, and when I type it it asks for password, overwritting the username I typed. And it probably displays the wellcome banner, but I just see the last line of the banner. Once logged, I have to type "clear" and then I can use the full screen, and it scrolls. That happens on the console, if I start a new session from another machine (using PuTTY) it works fine.

I have a raspi hat (rak2245) that has 2 versions: a pi-hat version that has a 40 pin-header on it for raspberry pi's , but also a smaller stamp edition. It uses spi and uart to communicate with the pi. I have it running without issues on my orange pi zero, even though the pinheader is a little too large. And via a breadboard I can access all pins just fine. But since I am making my own PCB anyway, I am interested in using the stamp version. The only difference between the stamp and the pi-hat version (aside from the form-factor and pin-out) is that the pi-hat version has an additional eeprom chip to tell the rapsberry pi about the function of the pins apparently. Now…

When i boot up Armbian via the sdcard, i can't see the emmc. Am i doing something wrong, or do i need to make some changes to the .fex file?

According to http://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-pc-plus/ If I understand correctly, the only difference is that PC+ has additional eMMC and WiFi. So a system with vanilla kernel for Opi PC+ should also work on the PC. Or are there other hardware differences? The page states: "serial console only, no HDMI." Does this vanilla system support Ethernet yet, so one can login via ssh after installation? My targeted use would be a tvheadend server (without local video for the moment).

If I power up the cubietruck 3 out of 5 times it won't boot. If it starts I can just fine ssh into the system and everything seems to be o.k. But after some time if I start to do something e.g. apt-get update / apt-get upgrade the system will freeze at some point. If i let the cubietruck on it's own it'll run for several hours without freezing. So the problem seems to be related eith…

hdparm -t gives only 2-3MB/s for the internal mmc card. Any ideas? The card does over 80MB/s on my workstation.

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

Hey Guys, i own a Lemaker Banana Pro device. The hardware itself is very fine, no issues with it, but the software support is pretty low. When i check internet, i see at least two images for it: Armbian Bionic - mainline based kernel 4.19.y Armbian Stretch- mainline based kernel 4.19.y I recognize that Armbian Stretch is based on Debian 9, which is the old Debian Version at all, so i am not willing to install it. But i wonder how it is with Bionic? Is Armbian Bionic based on Ubuntu Bionic Beaver? Is it that what i means? How long will the support run for this Bionic image? For me it doesnt matter if i install debian or ubuntu …

Greetings, I've been building an image for a banana pi m2-zero. I noticed during the build that the following DTS is chosen: sun8i-h3-orangepi-zero-plus2.dt There is a sun8i-h2-plus-bananapi-m2-zero.dts in the same directory, that I think would be more relevant. How can I choose this DTS instead?

I am not sure if this is intended or bug, When building the image for Nanopi duo2 I cannot add kvm. This worked before so I guess that this is regression.

Hello everyone ! I'm facing a hard issue that I still cannot solve. On my Raspberry, on Raspberry Os, to be able to use Rustdesk (https://github.com/rustdesk/rustdesk, an open source Teamviewer ) I needed to add some tweaks to the /boot/config.txt file: hdmi_force_hotplug=1 (See doc) hdmi_group=2 (See doc) Now, I'm trying to replicate these behaviours on Armbian for Opi zero 3 (but it could probably work for all Allwinner cpus if a solution is found) When looking on the Armbian documentation for Sunxi, I've found this (See doc) : For example to always use the hdmi connector, even if no cable is inserted, using edid info when available and …

Hi All, I have R1 issue again. After lot of experiments and tuning, I decided try to use R1 for real routing :-) It means dual WAN, lot of VLANs, thousands connections, traffic shaping etc. Everything worked well, until yesterday. As whole Europe has real summer these days, working temperature of my R1 is around 30 celsius. I experienced strange issues when traffic is very high. This happen approx. twice a day. System was not restarted, but PPPOE goes down, kernel reinitialize some hardware and everything continues well. Outage is several seconds only. I have to say, that I'm using OpenWrt for this application, but the system is well patched and worked without prob…

Hello, My problem is that curl tries to use ipv6 to resolve DNS entries and my home modem-router doesn't handle ipv6 so curl fails and fallbacks to ipv4. The process lasts 10 to 15 seconds because of this.

So I've gone ahead and got an Orange Pi PC. I've already been using a few Raspberry Pi boards, as well as the Odroid C2. I wanted to see what the Orange looks like in comparison. It fails to boot properly. I've read a few things around the web, tried the official as well as a few of the Loboris images, including the Raspbian, Jessie and Slackware ones; used the newer script.bin and uImages, etc. But still no go. The board isn't dead, the power LED and the other 2 LEDs near the ethernet port light up. I get activity through the debug serial port, but that's about it. No image through the HDMI, no DHCP request to my router (I connected it through a wired connection…

Hello! I am working on a project that requires coss platform development. Optimally I wish to connect the B-Pro directly to my computer in order to access it from there. Is there any work on this available? I know the BeagleBone can do it for example, bt haven't found anything related to the Pro. Any Information would be inmensely useful and appreciated. Added to this, I want to know if any of you have had any experience with QT for the BPro as well. Thank you!

Hello, i am a "newbee" , just got yesterday my orange pi and did not get it working..... after hours i managed but it is strange ( i think ) the orange does NOT start with NO monitor cable attached..... it does does NOT start with a hdmi-dvi converter.... ( that i found on the web ). The ONLY way i get it started is : 1 - HDMI cable attached to a HDMI monitor AND 2 - Power button pushed AND 3 - then as last one plugin the power cable.... is that normal ?. i doubt it , that is why i ask... also then I have armbian working, super, no problem. but when hitting the restart button in Armbian the orange Pi plus 2e s…

I recently updated the OS (apt-get dist-upgrade), for one of my test systems, and subsequent to this Kismet has stopped working with the wlan0 interface. Everything was working properly before this update. I see it (and wlan0mon) showing Promiscuous mode in the output of iwconfig. I'm not really a Linux person, so any pointers on how I can diagnose/repair?

Hello together sorry for this long description but I want to provide all information I could save. I'm running armbian since 2(?) years and had never a serious problem with it.

Hi, I am trying to use Orange Pi Zero. When I connect TTL debug port eveything ok. I can connect Wi-Fi from TTL command prompt. I can make update, download application but I cannot connect with SSH to device over Wi-Fi. But when I bring Orange Pi near to Wi-Fi modem(about 1m) I can connect ssh. I cannot find any solution about this problem. When I use wavemon to check Wi-Fi signal strength, I saw this values; signal level : -40 dbm, link quality: 91/100 If someone help I will be very happy, because I cannot find solution for days. Thanks a lot

Hello, Unfortunately as I read from forums mainline kernel has no driver for gc2035 and v4l2 driver. I have tried Armbian_5_65 and Armbian_5_59 debian stretch but they are not contains these drivers and eventually modprobe command fails. As I understand, I have 2 different solutions to run camera on my system; 1- Going back to legacy build. But I do not know how to go back the legacy build which is last supporter these drivers. 2- Installing required drivers. (Also I want to prefer this solution because going back to legacy build may cause some bugs) How can I install required drivers to mainline stable build and where can I find …

Hi all, I'm puzzled how everybody is building clusters of cheap SBC's, but nobody is implementing HA, redundancy, resiliency, failover, etc. They're just SBC's networked together. The SBC's are underprovisioned for Ceph, so I think that even if a Ceph configuration was managed to be shoehorned in, it wouldn't perform well. I don't know if DRDB is an option. How are people actually doing implementing real clustering technology on Orange Pi, for example? I'm using OPi+2E. Kind regards, Andrew

Hello, Is there any conclusion how to het wifi to work on OPi zero? I am on buster. I have disabled wlan power management (at least ifconfig says that "Power Management:off"), I have changed to performance governor, but still. After some period (like 5-20 mins) it drop all connections and become unresponsive (you can't even ping) for some time, and then work again. For short time again. What is really strange, as some point I was able to ping some external hosts from OPi (from session over serial) and at the same time, I could not ping OPi from my laptop. Once I tried to ping my laptop from OPi, then immediately my laptop started to ping OPi…

Hi I'm auto-login using nodm with orange pi. I run my udp.py file by creating a file named udp.desktop under the .etc/xdg/autostart folder at startup. but I need to play the wav file using pygame in the .py file, but I get a warning that the audio device could not be initialized. If I trigger my .py file manually, I can play the wav file without any problems. probably unable to load sound drivers during autostart. Can you help with this.

Hi Folks, I have a NanoPi NEO Air with Armbian Bookworm.

The page for the Banana Pi image says: "Known bugs or limitations Latest 3.4.107 image have some stability issues. Build from sources or wait for update." I have some questions about this: - What kind of stability issues should I expect? I am seeing some network problems currently, however a lot of hardware in my network was replaced recently so I'm not sure if the banana pi is the source of these problems. The banana pi never locks up/show kernel oops/etc. - How would building from source help? I would expect to get the same image with the same problems. - When can I expect a new image to be available? Is it enough to download an old kernel from the archive? Or is t…

Hi, i am new here and like to say hello. On my new cubietruck I have one after another tried to install and use wheezy and jessie with legacy and vanilla kernels. With the legacy versions i failed because there seemed to be no video-output on VGA from the kernel. The boot-process seemed to be stopped after Starting Kernel. Then i found that it was visible on HDMI but not on VGA. Because I have only VGA-Screen on my desk i went on with vanilla jessie. But on the download-page there is the note "No audio or accelarated video". What does it mean in detail? I installed mplayer but in fact there is no sound at the jack. Isn't therefore any driver available? Which …

Thanks to the latest Armbian and my own script - I now have a NanoPi Neo (two of them actually) running everything I want - Node-Red, Mosquitto, SQLITE3 etc..... got control of serial ports - marvelous. I have only one problem - I have no idea despite several experiments - how to get WIFI working on the standard cheap Wifi dongles you get on Ebay. (usually say 802.11n on the black plastic end). Anyone succeeded with this? Pete.

Hi Everyone. I have an Orange Pi One and I can use the micro USB (otg) port as a standard USB port - I can plug in a memory stick or USB speakers and it works fine. Is it possible to have the same functioniality with the OPI Zero? I tried and it does not work - I am powering the board through the GPIO header. Even if I plug in USB speakers that have an LED indication - no LED lights, so I guess no power. I looked at the fex file from the OPI One and could not see the difference there in the OPI Zero. I know it is in beta, so I do not expect it straight away, but it would be good to know if it is possible Thanks for any help. J
