Hello, I'm testing the latest (kernel 4.5) jessie server vanilla on a Olimex Lime2. If a battery is connected to the board and the power plugged in, the board start by itself ! I would like to change this behavior, is there any file to tweak ? Thanks

Was playing around with a well tuned system, wanted to upgrade my kernel - but seem to have broken something. I was on 5.37 - manually upgraded to stretch and everything was working quite well. Today tried upgrading my kernel, and was playing around with `armbian-config` to switch kernels, but didn't go so well. After a reboot had no network. Plugged in the serial console, and was greeted with the following. pi@orangepione:~$ uname -a Linux orangepione 4.11.12-sun8i #2 SMP Wed Nov 22 13:50:32 CET 2017 armv7l GNU/Linux pi@orangepione:~$ dpkg-query -W -f='${Version}\n' linux-stretch-root-orangepione dpkg-query: no packages found matching linux…

Hi Im seeking for a kernel that i can trust it does not hang. Using the old 3.4 kernel on bananian I could get my banana pi m1 more than 6 months without hangs and reboot. Now im been playing with the armbian and 4.x kernels for almost an year, and the banana pi hardly got 2 months without hangs and reboot. Could you be kind to tell me what is the kernel version with longest uptime with armbian on a banana pi? Sergio

Greetings, Some time ago, I built armbian with kernel 5.4.51. I applied a patch to two dts files that allowed for the OV5640 camera to work. By "work", I mean /dev/video0 was present in the system and /dev/media0 was also present. I could set camera parameters with media-ctl pointing to /dev/media0. Now, I've updated, and using a legacy kernel, 5.4.65, I cannot reproduce this. I've applied the same dts changes, but upon booting this image /dev/media0 is missing. I've compared the two kernel configurations, and there are very minimal differences: # diff config-5.4.51-sunxi /boot/config-5.4.65-sunxi 3c3 < # Linux/arm 5.4…

Hi! Sorry if it is already covered but I didn't find a complete answer on the subject on the forum... So I have activated the uart3 overlay and enable CTS and RTS on an own-build Armbian 5.27 dev flavor for my NanoPi NEO Air. But I was unable to get the AP6212 Bluetooth working, I've try some infos/commands found elsewhere without any luck My question: Is Bluetooth on Nanopi NEO Air (or any H3 board with AP6212) still WIP on Armbian? Thanks. Emmanuel.

Hi. I've got a Orange Pi Win Plus flashed with armbian, everything is running great, except the bluetooth module. I have everything installed, but blueman keeps telling me that no adapters are found. I've checked if the bluetooth adapters were on with the command 'armbian-config', as well as trying to stop and restart it with '/etc/init.d/bluetooth stop and start'. I start to feel like it won't work on linux, because I've already tried debian and ubuntu from the orangepi downloads page and the bluetooth didn't work too. I don't want to run Android just because of this issue. Any ideas?

Hi, I just acquired a couple of OrangePi zero's with the H2+ SoC and 512MB Ram. I tried to install the latest images for both Debian and Ubuntu burning then to microUSB with the regular dd command. The flash USB was a 32GB ebay cheap microUSB generic unbranded. I could not succeed at all in installing any distro, I even tried all the distros on the orangePi website. My strategy is to run the OPi headless, only connected to the ethernet cable, so no display at all. The symptons were always the same once powered (with a 1.2Amp phone charger) the OPi would start the blinking ethernet leds, on my router there was a new IP on the Lan but th…

Hello, since the build for OrangePi Plus 2 is only community maintained (and there is a warning during installation that this build is not suitable for production), I though of using some generic image or a image for a similar board with standard support. Is it a good Idea? Which image should I choose? Thanks for help, Skalistan P.S. there is no tag for "OrangePi Plus 2", so I used the tag for "OrangePi Plus 2E" since it is required to add a tag.

Hi Guys, today I've Updated from "Armbian_5.67_Nanopiduo_Debian_stretch_next_4.14.90" to Armbian_5.69_Nanopiduo_Debian_stretch_next_4.19.13" now I've the follwing problem on my nanopi duo.

Hello, Is such configuration possible: 1. Orange Pi Zero + 2. SPI-boot with no USB storage 3. SD Card has armbian files, but it is not bootable. I red that there is configuration with SPI-boot + USB storage, but not sure if there is a guide/possibility to continue use SD Card. Is that possible, is there any guide? Thank you.

Hi, I try to create a mural display monitor to show rss flows I have an orange pi pc plus with armbian installed on EMMC and a RVB monitor with an RVB/HDMI adapter.

Hello, My Orange Pi Zero was working during a few days. However after a few days it stopped working. I tried to install a fresh armbian (and I also tried lot's of different distribution on several SD cards), and all of them are unable to boot.

Hi There, I hope I posted this in the correct forum. We run a lot of distros on a given "disk" or "sdcard" (or whatever). We call our system "Boot-Crazy". Here goes: The partition starts with a small boot partition containing the initial boot parameters, configuration, and a pointer to the partition holding the root file system we want to boot. The boot partition is followed by some number of other partitions, like this: [bOOT]-[sWAP]-[COMMON]-[COPYOF-DISTO-1-BOOT]-[DISTO-1-ROOT-FILE-SYSTEM]-[COPYOF-DISTO-2-BOOT]-[DISTO-2-ROOT-FILE-SYSTEM]... Armbian (as downloaded for the BananaPi-M2) is simply one large partition, like this: [armbia…

Hello everybody! I upgraded my armbian on my Bananapi M1 to... armbian 20.08.17 Buster with Linux 5.8.16-sunxi Unfortunately I don't have any internet access anymore now. I can still SSH into the board, but I can not ping any server with it. What more information do you need to help? Thank you very much for your attention!

Hi I discovered that there are two versions of M64 bananapi. The first version on which all the kernel numbers go. The second version, which is not the kernel 4.19.x - kernel panic. The system will not run. I can not give you memory numbers because I covered it with sticking the heat sink. The first version is a model bought in 2016. The second version is the this year's model. The situation is similar to that of Nano pi T3 +

Hi, I am trying to flash debian jessie 4.x to NAND( there is already wheezy there ), but it doesn't come up in the ./nand-sata-install device list. I would install wheezy, but the problem is that it is not working( not 3.x or 4.x ), I just get a black screen after Staring Kernel message and the green LED is flashing every few seconds. What should I try next? Thank you, Stefan

On a fresh install of Armbian 20.08.1/Linux 5.8.5-sunxi on an OPi Zero (256MB version), total memory is 238MB according to "free -m": root@orangepizero:~# free -m total used free shared buff/cache available Mem: 238 74 78 1 85 154 Swap: 119 0 119 238MB is not 256MB. :-) I assume the discrepancy is due to reserved framebuffer memory, but after a bit of testing I've found that the "sunxi_fb_mem_reserve" parameter (set to "16" in /boot/boot.cmd by default) has no apparent effect. Here's a boot with the Armbian default "sunxi_fb_m…

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! Could you please clarify, is there a way to increase default limitations for max cpu freq (H5) on Orange Pi Prime? As i understand, according to driver (cpufreq-dt): /etc/default/cpufrequtils is a bit less restrictive: Is this a driver limitation ? Or there is a way to increase cpu-freq, but it's not used by default ? ( ... and why, if it is so ?)

I have spent hours trying to get any activity on my new Orange Pi PC I just purchased. I have been downloading and burning different images, reformatting / trying different SD cards, 2 power supplies, using DD, WIn32DiskImager, Rufus, scanning my SD using F3, etc lots of "pain". The solution - which I found somewhere halfway by accident - is that some boards do not have card slots mounted correctly, but you can flex the card to make it work. So yes, I flexed the SD card and applied power, and like magic I got actual LED activity. OMG it boots now! Would have worked the entire time but it did not make contact with the SD card. My solution for now is to stick a laye…

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

Dear friends, I have a problem with the ethernet connection of my orange pi plus 2e. The connection was working normally and stopped, I can only access through the wi-fi. I already researched it and found no solution. Open the connections and pressing ifupdown (eth0) the following error appeared: (1) Creating object for path 'org / freedesktop / NetworkManager / ActiveConnection / 14' failed in libnm-glib. Is there a connection to this error with a lack of ethernet connection?

Apparently, I have to do "echo $GPIO-Number > /sys/class/lirc_gpio/tx_gpio_pin" which I did with the right pin so in theory, the driver should be set up the way it is supposed to be.

Hello, I installed last Bionic on a Orange Pi PC+. It's on EMMC. (it used to have an old Armbian Ubuntu with 3.x kernel before) Common settings (background image, GTK theme, icons, panel) are there on logout but are not saved on reboot. I saved a text file in the home user folder, it's OK. With another common user I face the same problem, with the root account settings are saved. My Linux knowledge is average, I really don't know what's wrong. Thank you Mathieu

I am having problems with the NanoPi R1. I loaded the latest Armbian for R1 on flash. All works good. I went to armbian-config to load into eMMC. The last step of the process had weird text on the dialog, I clicked "OK" anyway, and the process seemed to be working. But after removing uSD card and rebooting, the board does not work. The red led stays on solid. Did anyone successfully burn the image from uSD to eMMC using the tool in armbian-config?

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?

Hi everyone. I got a Orange Pi Prime (OPi Prime). It works ok with "official" debian and ubuntu images from Xulong (xulong web site). When I try to use Armbian 5.33 stable, I got some text into HDMI screen until the words "loading kernel", then nothing is shown on monitor; but through TTL port I can login as root. That behaviour is repeated wheter using Ubuntu (desktop or server), Debian (desktop or server). With Legacy kernel (3.x) the same card worked in the past, but the image is not available anymore. I'm attaching the output from TTL console: Spoiler CPU: Allwinner H5 (SUN50I) Model: OrangePi Prime…

Hi! Happy new year! Recently, I experienced a strange date problem on my Cubitruck. After a reboot or a powerdown/powerup the date is set to Jan, 1 1970 00:00:00 UTC (aka epoch). As far as I can see the RTC is working. ntpd is enabled on my Cubitruck. (Since it runs its own nameserver with DNSSEC, DNS resolving isn't working if the date is set to epoch. So ntpd can't reach any NTP server.)

I am planning a project for a few Orange Pi Lites as multimedia devices. I have been testing applications on the Lite with it unenclosed, and without a heatsink and haven't seen any issues with heat so far (running at 1.2 GHz). Is there a general consensus on if this board should have a heatsink when clocked at 1.2 GHz (and is enclosed)? The intended case design has vents.

Hello Igor, Jessie and Wheezy wont start with kernel 4.0.4. The image from your page (wheezy) will not start completely and now a tried a self compiled (jessie) .

Hello Igor and congrats for your contribution and regards to community! As the title points, is there any chance to create a Lubuntu image that will out of the box support all Pis (Banana Pi, Banana Pro, BPi-R1) with SATA, audio, networking and video acceleration?

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)

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.
