I'm running gentoo on my Orange Pi PC. it's powerful enough to build gentoo, and its ethernet is fast enough to build from NFS.

After installing the Bullseye version in the Orange PI3, I launched the Kodi installation. The videos however are in slow motion, with the audio at normal speed. Are there any codecs missing? The video driver? Thanks

I have Debian and installed Mate. I happen to install sv_SE.UTF-8 and en_US.UTF-8 but I cannot change languish on desktop from sv_SE.UTF-8 to en_US.UTF-8. First I just remove "sv_SE.UTF-8, but then the Terminal complain it did not find sv_SE, so install again. I generate the 2 locales, And thied to when I marked the local I want en_US, but it say sv_SE are active in Mate. I tried to run: sudo localectl set-locale en_US.UTF-8 Failed to issue method call: Access denied I don't find any "Languish controll" at all in Mate desktop It is right languish in terminal.

Hi, I've just downloaded the July 12th image with the 3.4.108 kernel from http://www.igorpecovnik.com/2013/12/24/cubietruck-debian-wheezy-sd-card-image/. After booting from SD card i can't seem to reach ssh on this machine. I can ping it though ping times vary between 1 and 220ms. I tried to boot several times but nothing changes. With the 4.x kernel i was able to boot and ssh into. Any idea?

TKaiser. If you install the Desktop version of Armbian 5.10 then the following list of codecs (containing h.265 with 8 bit but not 10 bit!) is available for HW accelerated decoding: http://linux-sunxi.o...ed_codec_matrix Is 8 Bit versus 10 Bit a limitation. Can the Orange Pi PC with Armbian 1.10 decode all HEVC 8 or 10 bit encoding to 8 bit decoding, or can it ONLY do 8bit encoded to 8 bit decoding? Seasalt

Hi, currently my small server is running under Armbian 5.16 on Orange Pi Plus 2 board. It is using eMMC as root fs. I am expecting to get Orange Pi Plus 2E to be delivered shortly. The question is if following procedure will be OK to migrate server between boards: before: stop services etc. 1. insert SD card (16GB) when system is running. eMMC is visible as /dev/mmcblk0, SD card will appear as /dev/mmcblk1. 2. use nand-sata-install to copy system to SD Card. 3. mount /dev/mmcblk1 under some mount point, for example /mnt 4. verify, if /mnt/etc/fstab is valid: /dev/mmcblk0p1 / ext4 defaults,noatime,nodiratime,commit=600,errors=remount-ro 0 1 5. modify lin…

I got my Nanopi M1 today and then installed RetrOrangePi on it. Every was fine until I started Openelec and can't go back to the EmulationStation. Can anyone guide me to go back to that menu? Thank you very much

Hi, I am looking for a solution or tutorial to help me enable splash screen for Orange Pi One. Thanks.

Hi! I have a small question, i installed Armbian version 5.20 (kernel 4.7.3) and upgrade all package with apt-get upgrade. In this case armbian upgraded to version 5.23 with kernel 4.8. I must have kernel in version 4.7 so my question is - how to downgrade all armbian package to previous release (5.20)? Thanks for help

Hi, I have problems with the versions "Armbian 5.25 Orangepizero Debian jessie default" and 5.26. When i install Nginx, the directory "nginx" is created in /var/log/. After a "reboot" the directory is then "disappeared", not possible to start Nginx. I can create the folder with error.log and access.log and restart Nginx. After this, it runs. After a reboot again, nginx is missig again... Any hints? The same happens with 5.25 and 5.26 on OrangePiOne, so far tested... I thing i'm not the only one with this problem. (I testet with "root" permissions only)

Today I did get my NAS-Case "Neo Station NS-120B" for my NanoPi Neo2 (also useable with a normal NanoPi Neo). Because I already did use the Neo2 with armbian (and had soldered all pins on the mainboard - I ordered only the case without a new Neo2 with soldered pins) I didnt want to write the FriendlyARM Image for NAS to my uSD. After completing to built the Neo2 and the 2.5 HDD inside the case (and using the 12V PowerSupply I had) armbian did start up and I could normally SSH into my Neo2 - BUT I cant see the HDD or the HDD-controller (which should be connected via USB). ( @tkaisernow here the Neo2 do get his power over pins and not via the Mic…

Hello everyone :-). I would like help, I checked on the Web and I found using the forum a script (that I modified) to trigger using DTS LEDs. I adapted the script found here at the end of the page: Topic 112-dtb-howto-add-leds I think that for the section "disk-activity" and "netdev" it misses options but I'm not a developer just a scheming. Can you please explain to me how to add options to the mentioned trigger? I searched a lot of time but did not find any information. Here is my script, everything works fine (compiled with armbian-add-overlay), but "disk-activity" and "netdev" do not work. I tested the write / read trigger on disk but did no…

Hi All, Just wanted to share a good story using armbian. I have used in the past 1-wire probes for temperature, and the process included decompiling, editing and recompiling dtb for my Banana Pi M1, which was not easy at all. Every firmware update deleted by changes and had to redo de recompilation. With latest kernels and armbian version, the process is now extremely easy, just edit: /boot/armbianEnv.txt Adding this lines: overlays=w1-gpio param_w1_pin=PI3 # desired pin(7th pin (GCLK) or number 4 on first column where number 1 is +3V) param_w1_pin_int_pullup=1 # internal pullup-resistor: 1=on, 0=off …

Hi all, The plot thickens. This is only an issue when eth0 is given an IPv6 address by my home router. If i disable IPv6 at home my problem goes away. I am having some issues getting wireguard to play the game. I have a fresh Armbian Focal 22.02 install on a NanoPi Neo. The problem is that the wirguard interface comes up, then traffic doesn't flow., not even to the other side of the wireguard link (10.66.0.1). tcpdmping on the other side of the connection shows no packets at all coming into the far ends 51820. Stopping wireguard on both sides and using netcat via UDP and TCP I can see the traffic I expect. I can also use my Android mobile phone and…

Hi, I would like to establish communication between Pi One and a computer through OTG Usb to USB. My goal is to use it to create a serial communication between the PI One and the computer to be able to send quick strings from the PC to the PI. I have a program which only communicate through serial com port and I would like to feed it with data from the PI. Is it possible... to use the physical interface to communicate? Is it possible to establish serial communication between them? I would be very grateful for any extensive help. Thanks in advance! Hi again, I don't think I got closer to the solution... I don't want to use the debug port or th…

I'm using Orange Pi One with Armbiab 5.14. And trying to use GPIO (keys) for volume up and down, making game console. Of course, I could read GPIOs status by Wiring Pi, but I couldn't control volume by command. I tried amixer with various parameters, but not change HDMI volume. I'm not sure the usage detail of amixer on Armbian. Please advise me how to change volume by command. It's OK to control by C source, because use C program to read GPIOs!

I'm trying to use 1080p60 with a DVI-HDMI cable on an Orange Pi One so I run h3disp -m 1080p60 -d and restart. Monitor shows randomly moving white lines on both sides of the display (probably the console text all garbled) for a few seconds then goes to sleep. Tried with a TV (using an HDMI-HDMI cable) and it cycles between Unsupported Mode and No Signal. 1080p without the DVI flag works on the TV but the monitor doesn't even come out of sleep with it. Other resolutions seem to work fine with the DVI flag on the monitor, including 720p and 1080i. The monitor also works fine with a 1080p output from a PC.

So recently I got a 5 inch HDMI display with touch in the mail. They got drivers for the raspberry pi, and i got it working on the raspberry pi without a problem. Now I was wondering if would work on my banana pi running armbian legacy kernel. I have tried installing and following the original instructions, but i can't get the touch controller to work, it will display on the screen, but touch is not working. The resolution also seems a little bit off. Allthough i tried setting it to 800x480. I know there are other post around this topic, but most of them didn't made it any more clear to me what i could possibly do. And some that did still didn't work. So ye…

Hi to you all. I've had a functional boot from USB flash drive on my OrangePi Zero and when I've updated kernel yesterday from main repository and reboot_ed boot stoped working. I've tried on another fully functional OrangePi Zero with same rom on it and still not working. I've tried to put new "virgin" image to USB flash drive and still nothing. Tried to erase spi and write it againe and still nothing. Any idea what could happened. I'll try today to get serial console to see what is going on during the boot proces.

Hello! Is there any way to config the frequency used by the DRAM driver when throttling takes place, or even better, disable the DRAM throttling at all? First of all, I have to say that that I'm pushing my Orange Pi Zero H3 board to run at very hot temperatures due to my CPU throttling settings so I can play some retro arcade games (I know I may burn it). But it seems the DRAM driver has its own throttling settings, and it takes place reducing DRAM frequency to 132Mhz. At such DRAM frequency there is flickering at HDMI output.

I'm trying to use PA18/PA19 for custom purposes. I need to put these pins to Input state without any pullups/pulldowns. What I can achieve is: to put these pins to input state via the command: gpio mode 30 in gpio mode 31 in ("tri" instead of "in" does not work, it accepts the command, but a multimeter shows the input is still high, as well as gpio readall) These pins are probably pulled high because they are I2C pins. I want to disable the I2C functionality but have not found any means to do so. I have tried this dts script: ##### /dts-v1/; / { compatible = "allwinner,sun8i-h3","allwinner,sun50i-h5","friendly…

The Volumio team is currently investigating whether our sopine64 based motivo board (https://volumio.org/epic-journey-called-volumio-motivo/) could boot from usb using SPI flash. I'm aware of the sunxi SPI developments in u-boot and mainline kernel, and that we theoretically should be able to flash the SPI-NOR chip with the correct u-boot version using FEL mode. I also read that armbian has been prepared for booting from usb (as @martinayotte mentioned in other places). My question is, did anyone actually do anything in this direction, is there something I could help testing with? I know how to compile u-boot as I've done this with armbian's u-boot ver…

I recently updated my Orange Pi Zero Plus to the 5.3 Kernel and since then it failed a few times. I tried to find the reason why it hangs, and when connected using ssh, I get the message kernel:[ 275.633561] thermal thermal_zone0: critical temperature reached (100 C), shutting down After seeing this, I started a program that generates load and watched the temperature and CPU in htop. Temperature goes up to 100°, but the CPU stays at 1.3Ghz. After downgrading to kernel 4.19.63 it works as expected again. Temperature raises, but then the CPU speed is limited, first to 1.01Ghz, then 960MHz and then temperature is always low enough to stay at …

Good morning, I have a NanoPi Neo core where I am trying to use the usb ports (USB1, USB2 and USB3), the first thing to say is that all usbhost is active in armbian-config. The system does not recognize me anything in any of the 3, not a pendrive, or Wi-Fi or anything. If I go to armbian-config, I see that the DTB system that has loaded is that of the NanoPi air, I do not know if it can influence. USB devices receive power when connected. Any idea if I have to activate something else or modify the DTB or something? I have tried adding to armbianEnv.txt this line at the end fdtfile = sun8i-h3-nanopi-neo.dtb but nothing.

Hi specialists, I'm trying to understand how the axp209 on Banana Pi works with the A20. In the Banana Pi schematics I see, that they are connected with only four lines. Two lines are used for I²C (TWSI), one is from axp209 PWROK to RESET# of A20 and another one is connected from axp209 IRQ and GPIO2 to NMI# of A20. When system is off and I press my Power Button (K1) on the Pi, the system is booting. System is running and I long press the Power Button, System shuts down. But can anyone say whats happening? What does axp209 do with IRQ, GPIO2 and PWROK pins? Wich way does the A20 recognize, that it has to shutdown? Yours Martin

Looking for any means of finding a unique and permanent MAC address for opilites. Is there some kind of serial number or other unique number of any kind in an H3 SOC or in something on an OPI Lite board that could be used to derive a MAC ? As things currently are I either have to manually setup the mac for each board I build - in a conf file in /etc/modprobe.d or live with the fact that the board comes up with a new mac/ip with every boot.

I encountered a strange problem and I do not know what to do: When I am restarting my OPI with inserted USB audio card, then LIRC does not work. When I am restarting my OPI without inserted USB card and this USB card I put only later after a restart, then LIRC works. Can anyone advise how to proceed? I need to insert USB audio card permanently (it's inside the device).

I just recently acquired a few Orange Pi Zero Plus 2 boards. I need to get them working for a Bluetooth application. After a somewhat rough start with the WiFi they appear to be running smoothly now. The first problem I am noticing is that sata-nand-install does not exist on the distribution for the H5. Can anyone shed some light on what is necessary to get these boards to boot from eMMC? Is there anyone currently working on this problem? If not, what is the correct version of that script that I should download to begin trying to port it, and what utilities will I need to adapt to make it happen? Any advice on how to begin? On another front, doe…

My newly received Orange PI Plus 2 gets stuck in a reboot loop, if I try to boot headless (no USB, no HDMI; UART is connected to see boot messages). Is such a problem known here? I have the same issue with some other linux images from other distributions, but hope to find some experience here. In detail: Power supply: Regulated Power Supply set to approx 5.2V (max 2A, built-in analog amperemeter shows max 1.4A during boot). No cables connected except power supply and UART I tried various SD-Cards (8GB or 64GB SDHC) --> The Orange PI Plus 2 boots till USB initialization and then reboots (sometimes it freezes). …

I've installed Armbian again. Initially I logged in as root and 1234 password which worked. Then it asked to change the password. Something wen't wrong with it. My OrangePi PC boots fine and ok. When I open a terminal and try to do a "sudo this that" it asks my password and won't accept the one I gave, nor 1234. I've done the full installation a couple of times and same problem persists. How do I rest root password? The problem is that everytime I re-install everything and I'me at the very firts log (where I enter root and 1234) the screen scrolls so that I cannot see what it is asking since my monitor is 1600x1024. That I why I need to reset password afterwards. I…

I need 3 USB ports (webcam, wifi 5G, 3d printer). On Zero Plus 2 H3/H5 micro usb port is occupied by usb charger, because none of my devices can play as power source. So, only 2 usb ports left, not enougth. Is it possible to make micro usb useable somehow? For example, via custom usb cable etc. I need micro-usb male / micro usb male cable (OPI <-> 3d printer board) + supply power somehow. PS. i don't like to add external usb hub.

I'm trying to develop a kiosk system using an Orange Pi One (Based on Allwinner H3 - Mali400) running Armbian Xenial To do this I need to develop a full-screen GUI application (I don't have much experience in this area) I'm looking for a professional way to do this, Ive spent about a week trying to get Qt to cross-compile from my laptop but not getting much luck, Any ideas / advice welcome, Andy

Hello everyone, Is there any utility to deal with overscan when using TVout? I'm using Armbian Legacy kernel. There is a tool called Allwinner_TVOUT_manipulator, anyone have used it?

I am running a relatively new install (few months) on a replaced microSD (RMA). Keep in mind this is a headless install. At random, usually after many days / weeks+ the orangepi appears to freeze. What I mean with freeze: - samba shares disconnect - sometimes SSH works till the password is submitted, then it times out - sometimes http works when I hard restart it - I always see a very high temp & in some logs I had seen some weird dates, so I set to write out date & temp and I got this beauty on the next freeze: Spoiler date: Sun Sep 30 13:27:03 2018 -- temp: 41.99 date: Sun Sep 30 13:28:…

Latest doesn't seem to work at all, so something like 5.59 4.18.0-rc7-sunxi64 mentioned here https://github.com/armbian/testings would be ideal. Alternatively is there a way I can build old version myself? I ran ./compile docker BOARD=orangepilite2 BRANCH=dev but resulting image doesn't work also.

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

I had a rather crazy idea (in my opinion) of trying to hook up a bluray drive to an Orange Pi Zero Plus that i have a spare of, then possibly set that up as an iscsi target with LiO to create a network attached BD drive. However, I'm already stuck even getting the BD drive to work with the OPi in the first place. I have the optical drive hooked to an externally powered USB 2.0 to ATA bridge (has a SATA port on it as well, this hardware config was tested in windows and worked great) and that's plugged into the single USB port on the board. The problem i seem to be having (not entirely sure I'm correct, very new at this) is that sr_mod is not enabled or present. T…

Hi friends, i'm new here, i found an old Orange Pi PC (V1.2) in my treasure-box and try to find a bootable image in the Orange Pi sources. But any image i tried was faulty, one time the system is starting, but not booting completely ore i have a red LED (don't boot). I tried it with a 8GB und a 32GB card. Pls, can you tell me, where i can download a running image and do you know, if a 32GB-Card ist ok? I write the img with "BelanaEtcher" on the SD-Card, same as i write it on a SD-Card für a Rasp-Pi. Thank you for any helpful answer. Stefan

I just run an "sudo apt upgrade" and my 22.05 system was upgraded to 23.8.1 As a result WiFi stopped working. The wireless interface disappeared and can not be configured with armbian-config. On the positive side it seems like the load bug is now fixed, load can now be 0.0.0 at its lowest as opposed to 1.1.1 before. is there a way to revert back to the old kernel with Armbian?

Hello, I used my cubieboard A10 to make a torrentserver with armbian. I use armbian jessie with vanilla kernel. The rootfs is on a 16gb sandisk sd-card, the download folder is on a sata ssd. I connect through ssh. When I start up the box everything runs as it should, but after approx. 5 minutes the connection drops with the cubieboard. Transmission stops and the ssh-server stops. When I then reboot, the torrents are gone and I have to reload them. the data on the ssd is still there. I tried already to limit the download speed to 2Mb/s but still the same. What can be the problem? I had a tl wr703n as a torrent box for a long time without a problem. The…

Hello everybody. I'm trying to have the OLIMEX board and LCD above working, using legacy Jessie desktop. With the default configuration only portion of the screen works properly. So I have tried to: 1) sunxi-fexc from bin to fex the file /boot/script.bin 2) edit the extracted script.fex file like this: from [lcd0_para] lcd_used = 1 lcd_x = 600 lcd_y = 480 to [lcd0_para] lcd_used = 1 lcd_x = 1024 lcd_y = 600 which I understand is the resolution of my LCD screen. 3) sunxi-fexc back from fex to /boot/script.bin The result is that when I reboot I get a messed up screen. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

have there been more changes for Desktop recently except the repos? Yesterday I have updated and tried to compile, noticed that the function "fetch_from_github" was gone (replaced by "fetch_from_repo"?). After I changed my script accordingly I was able to compile, but the desktop doesn't come up any more. It looks like "fbturbo" module is completely missing? I don't see any reference to this in the logs; where should it be so I can try to debug?

Hi, Initially this started by trying to have proper capture and playback in PCM/I2S port, but it looks like that ALL H3 audio drivers got the same problem, they cannot capture at 24bits, they cannot do HiFi recording despite the Allwinner's datasheet that they do have 24bits in plain audio port and up to 32bits in PCM/I2S/HDMI. I made a very simple test in another thread here and anyone with any H3 board without anything else can do it too -> http://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic/759-tutorial-i2s-on-orange-pi-h3/?p=17595 Then it popped to my mind to do the most simple of the tests, in the included/onboard audio codec, wich according to datasheet it is w…

Hi all, I have no luck to get wifi work on NanoPi M1 with the usb dongle RLT8188CUS. I have followed the tutorial "OPI ONE wireless success" to config. But, I don't see any "wlan0" or wifi device at all with the usb dongle plugged in. "nmtui" does not detect any wifi device as well. It appears to me that, although armbian recognizes the usb dongle, armbian does not treat it as a wlan0 device. I very appreciate if anyone can give me some suggestions to diagnose and fix I am using armbian-jessie-server, kernel 3.4.113, jessie 5.23. Below is the info of my board. === uname -a === Linux nanopim1 3.4.113-sun8i #4 SMP PREEMPT Sun Nov 20 09:58:26 CST 201…

Hiya, Using a Banana Pi M1 as a factory production tester in China, running Armbian Mainline 4.6.3. Works fine here; never had the problem they're reporting, but they're saying: a) after a certain amount (unspecified) of time the boards crash and get stuck in a reboot loop displaying screen as shown in JPEG - "kernel panic not syncing - Attemped to kill init! exitcode=0x000000b" b ) rewriting the SD card image (from one I provided; a 4GB pre-configured image) fixes it (until it happens again) c) Only useful thing I can get from the photo attached is that the stack trace in the image (which is all I have to go on btw; trying to get a copy of the ba…

I am failing creating a bootable SDcard. I download latest image and flash it using etcher. Everything goes smoothly. But when the SD is inserted in the device and the device is powered on, nothing happens (no video output, no LEDs blinking, no network LEDs blinking). I am facing this issue with bananapi M1 (and pine64, but I need to get bananapi working only). This is not SDcard issue, since other distros are running smoothly. This is not PSU issue, since other distros are running smoothly. I was testing Debian Jessie Next 4.9 and 4.11.

Hi everyone. When I tried plug in my banana pi to tv (rca video(AV),). I can see only boot(where label armbian). maybe need special resolution, i tried 800x600, 640x480, nothing.

I am building armbian with mainline kernel (4.14.19) on jessie for OrangePi Lite... Sometimes on booting my Pi Lite, the wifi does not work. I cannot create hotspot and connecting to existing networks will not work. A short time after booting I see the following messages in the dmesg log [ 102.077151] sunxi-mmc 1c10000.mmc: send stop command failed [ 102.077184] sunxi-mmc 1c10000.mmc: data error, sending stop command If I remove and reload the 8189fs module I will see the following error in the dmesg log [ 572.371452] rtl8189fs: probe of mmc1:0001:1 failed with error -110 If I don't see the mmc errors after startup (say 5 minutes) the w…

I just installed a fresh armbian 5.38 (mainline kernel) image to an SD Card for my A20-OLinuXino-MICRO board. After booting I used armbian-config to enable the spi-spidev. I then edited the armbianEnv.txt directly to add param_spidev_spi_bus=0. This gives me a single spidev0.0 under dev. Changing the parameter to param_spidev_spi_bus=2 (or 1) I can get the other busses. But only a single bus at a time. I spent I few hours googling, but I cannot seem to find any documentation on how to enable more than one userspace spi dev. Could someone explain to me how to enable all spi devices at once? Writing a custom overlays myself is a little beyond me at t…

I am trying to switch legacy kernel to "next". I did it successfully with armbian-config for OrangePiPC (obviously Armbian was installed on SD card). Once I attempted to do the same with Orange Pi Plus and system installed onto internal EMMC then after reboot... nothing. I am wondering also if the issue is related to platform or the fact that Armbian was installed on EMMC. I have connected TTL2USB and following is the result (seems to be indefinite loop): U-Boot SPL 2017.11-armbian (Jan 25 2018 - 07:58:02) DRAM: 2048 MiB Trying to boot from MMC2 U-Boot 2017.11-armbian (Jan 25 2018 - 07:58:02 +0100) Allwinner Technology CPU: Allwinner H3 (SUN8I …

My Orange Pi PC2 work fine with Stretch (mainline, 4.14.48) between 35 and 65 °C. I got only a minor (but annoying) problem: the board start overheating after a shutdown (sudo shutdown -h now) and reach >70 °C after few minutes. Is it a kernel problem? Or a hardware design fault?

I just got a Nanopi NEO2 512MB, installed Armbian Ubuntu Bionic. It works fine, except for the DVB-T/C stick. It is affected by Kernel 4.10+ problems. I wonder if I can downgrade to an older kernel, like 4.4.0 for example, where everything works perfectly? If yes, how? There is a patch that perhaps would resolve the problem, how could I apply this patch to an of the available releases of Armbian? This patch Please, help me with this. Many thanks!

Hello I have an Orangepi One which fails after running for a certain time. In the failed "state" pinging it still works, but SSH connections to the Orangepi or from the Orangepi to the Server via Autossh won't work any more. A PHP application running on it is still working. It looks like the issue is that it winds back the time to something ridiculous. Hard reset with pulling Power fixes this for again a certain time till it happens again. I wrote a script which runs every Minute via Cronjob and logs the current time to a file. Before the rewind already something weird is happening. The cronjob is executed twice on 04.40. I have no idea what is hap…

Hi all, I recently bought a Banana BPI M2 Zero for a personal human-machine interaction project as this was the only (cheap) available option w.r.t. my specs (HDMI, entry-level OpenGL GPU, enough CPU power for the task). I got a version with Allwinner H3 (which in my view is good) and also read through the H3 buyer's guide. According to that guide, the CPU should be sourced by 1.3V, but to my (positive) surprise, I measured only 1.15V at the output coil (after the coil and against GND, of course) of the SY8113 regulator. However, there's certainly something not working as expected from the schematics: both, the SY8113 and the SY8089 1.2V regulators (SYSTEM+CPU…

Dear community, I am experimenting with MangoPi board, trying to communicate with the CC2530 Zigbee board .

After upgrading my Cubietruck with the latest armbian image (Vanilla Debian Jessie) I noticed that command line access is restricted to two parallel consoles (via ALT+F1, ALT+F2, -) only. Is there a way to overcome this limitation? Any remedial hint would be greatly appreciated. Thanx in advance. By the way, SSH terminal access seems to be possible almost inititely in number.

Hello! Does anyone know how make hardware reset of the Pi one board?

hello everybody, I going to compile kernel + complete image with the armbian building script. At this moment, the 25 october 2016 ... What distribution is the better choice if I want to use mali desktop lighttpd mysql ? Debian Jessie or Ubuntu Trusty ?

Hello, I have red, that WiFi card built-in Orange Pi Lite (RTL8189FTV) could make troubles (drivers), so I wonder - maybe will be better to buy Orange Pi One and WiFi dongle (a well tested one, with non-problem chipset) Which WiFi dongle would you recommend for Orange Pi One?

Hi all, I have applied 12 V to the DC input of my Cubietruck (bad thing). So now I want to repair / recover everything possible... Both DC-in and battery input seem to be short-circuited, but I cannot find the exact position. Power via USB-OTG works (successful boot). The fuse directly after the input has almost zero resistance (which is good) and I have checked all visible power-related parts (doc here) with a microscope (nothing looks burned, as far as I can tell all diodes/resistors/... work as they should). When checking the resistance of DC-in to ground it gives me 1,5 kOhm with a multimeter (don't have a second one here, but I gues…

Hi, Recently I upgraded /sudo apt-upgrade/ my armbian and my wlan is now gone /it worked perfectly before/. Looks like xradio module is missing from the new kernel?

Hello,I have a bananapi m2+ I would like to install kodi version 17 to the standard repositories is the only version of 15 which doesn't suit me. tell me how to install the 17 version? I'm new to Linux and don't understand much,if there is a possibility lay out the user manual which would have helped with the installation. I want to install on server version armbian and that would be after the launch of the banana pi automatically instead of a desktop was loaded kodi interface, so it is possible to do?
