Hello, I'm starting in this world with an Orange Pi Lite, but I'm not being able to perform the initial setup using serial console gadget on the OTG port. To prevent power problems, I'm using the DC input. Unfortunately I haven't found enough information to make the configuration on a Linux PC, since I wasn't able to know the /dev address to connect through screen. You've probably noticed that my knowledge of Linux is rather scarce. Thanks in advance!

Hello, guys, please help setup HDMI output to 480x320 in mainline kernel for BananaPi M2. I am using 3.5inch HDMI display, it is working fine but my current resolution is too high. All attempts to change disp_mode in armbianEnv.txt didn't help. Thanks

I have an Orange pi +2e running the desktop version of armbian. I want to install armbian to the built in emmc . Armbian is currently running on a SD card when I used the command "nand-sata-install" I got these options. which of those do i select to install Armbian from the SD card to the Built in emmc

Hello! The Cubieboard2 with mainline kernel support LCD through DVK522 board (LVDS connection)? The mainkernel support SPI?

I am trying to get my nanopi m1 to show up as an ethernet device and I can't make it work in mainline or legacy. Since I'm aiming for mainline anyway, could someone help me figure out what I'm doing wrong?

I should probably start a new thread for this but it seemed appropriate to post here at this time of nght.. So the OPi Zero Plus 2 boards arrived and I duly set up the image on a 8GB SD card, connected the serial TTL to USB adapter and booted. Everything came up fine so I set up the wifi to my local network using nmtui. Again no problems. I did an apt-get update and upgrade and rebooted, all OK again. Having SSHed into the device I get very sluggish performance and pinging from another machine on the lan I see hugely variable pings ie variations from a few ms to over a second. I installed wavemon and it shows a very strong wifi signal (as expected). The ping…

I have a NanoPi Neo that's been up about 4 months and I am using it for DHCP and DNS caching (using dnsmasq). This has been working fine over SSH until after the update. Previously, I could log in, edit the dnsmasq settings, and restart the service without issue. Now, when I attempt to restart a service (not just dnsmasq, I tested a couple others), it hangs and looks like it's waiting for a password entry on the TTY. (I'm logged in over SSH and I do not have a TTY connected). ... in first SSH session, this just hangs forever until I ctrl-C: root@nanopineo:/etc# systemctl restart dnsmasq ... in second SSH session, PS shows: root 1825 783 0…

So I apologise in advance because I'm sure it's probably on this forum but I could not work out the buzzwords to find it. For whatever reason, I upgraded the cubietruck with armbian which has been on since forever and rebooted for the first time this year. On reboot it failed to find /boot and a few other things and kept bootlooping, resetting itself and then following the same procedure. I already had installed the system to my SATA SSD, so this isn't a huge deal. I've flashed the latest armbian release onto the SD card and it boots fine. Now, I see there is an install to sata option in armbian-config but it gives me the warning that it will wipe …

as of some network release before the current (unsupported) 4.11.3 kernel, the networking has started having random value hw mac addresses on every boot. I suspect if you can do so and look @ your DHCP server, you will possibly see the orangepi (or whatever your hostname is) lurking there. Another way to do it if you have to, is to /sbin/ifconfig and get the HWaddr and look for that mac address on your dhcp server. I came by your post while trying to find a workable solution to assigning the mac on the orangepi zero 512 I am bringing up. Jim

Hello, I install Armbian on my Orange Pi Win Plus, i use the image for Orange PI Win i have the boot starter after nothing, someone can help thank you

Hi. Kernel version : 4.11.7-sun8i My trouble is that clk is weird in using spidev. This is a oscilograph when i send a command with spi. First line is CLK and second line is CS0. My slave chip can not receive commands. and I think it due to this weird CLK. CS seems affect CLK. I just want to use spi with CS keeping active-low. But, following code setting mode of spi occured an error. "invalid argument exception" mode = SPI_MODE_1 | SPI_NO_CS; if (ioctl(file,SPI_IOC_WR_MODE32,&mode)<0){ perror("can't set spi mode"); return; } this work properly. mode = SPI_MODE_1; if …

Hi all! Please excuse my noobness. It's my first day on Armbian + Orange Pi Zero. Until now I was using Raspbian + RPi Zero W but I could not find related docs for what I was doing so far on the previous platform. My goal here is quite simple: being able to connect my OPi through OTG (ether) and enable the RNDIS interface on my macOS. Already tried several tips and configuration snippets I've found around, which led me to this stage: The USB0 is up and configured: 3: usb0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether ee:95:f9:4f:6c:28 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet…

I downloaded Ubuntu server from here https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-plus-2e/ and then burned it using Etcher to my SD card. I never loaded/installed any OS on my Orange Pi Plus2E before. Without SD card it permanently shows only Allwinner H3 logo on screen, so it seems no OS installed there. Red led is permanently on (not blinking) and nothing elase is happen. After I insert the SD card with the burned image I immediately get green LED on (not blinking), red LED is off. The monitor screen is permanently black and nothing else happens. When I connected USB/UART converter I saw the following in the logs: U-Boot SPL 2017.05-armbian (Jun 13 …

So, hello. Sorry for bad/broken English, I'm still teaching it. As in title, I can't boot my orange pi 2 plus from sd card. I have tried with one tv(hdmi-hdmi 1920x1080), and one normal pc monitor (hdmi-dvi 1440x900) sd card is 8gb class 10 producent "team". I burned my image with Etcher 1.1.1 Funny is that, lubuntu image from eMMC is working fine, I've tried to boot lubuntu, ubuntu, image, with no effect, the only image that works is from eMMC(i have installed it months ago) At start, the green LED lights up and after 5, maybe 10 seconds red LED is blinking, something like blink-blink-2/3 seconds break-blink-blink I feel like I should create this …

Hello. Is there a way of resetting the USB subsystem in Armbian for Orange Pi Zero? I don't want to unplug and plug a USB device or reboot the system just to reset the plugged USB devices. The above is doable on a PC running Ubuntu with something like this: $: cd /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ehci_hcd $: ls 0000:00:14.0 bind module new_id remove_id uevent unbind $: echo -n "0000:00:14.0" > unbind $: echo -n "0000:00:14.0" > bind Wondering if something similar (I don't really care if the solution is not similar) is doable on Armbian for OPIZ. Cheers!

Hey everyone! I just got myself hooked up with an Orange Pi PC+ and I was wondering is it possible to send files over the usb-ttl dongle just like in Windows Explorer, from my pc onto the eMMC or the external sd card, which is in the slot. I am using TeraTerm as console. It always boots up in boot0 mode. I have attached a piece of the log, that I've managed so far. Regards. putty.log EDIT: In teraterm there is an SSH SCP Send-Receive window, with path choises, but it doesn't seem to work. Couldn't transfer any file from the pc to the sdcard. Any thought, ideas?! Without using card reader at the moment. …

AFAIK, from last year, there are some new driver for AXP209/202 PMU for mainline kernel. One of the main new features that i really like is custom sampling frequency compared to the original driver for linux kernel 3.4 (i just remember the interval are 2 seconds). I want to use AXP209 PMU for power/energy profiling and consumption study of some SBC such as Banana Pi/Pro and some other Allwinner based SBC as comparison. The question is How i want to know current sampling frequency from PMU and how to change the frequency? (25, 50, 100 or 200Hz) What is the reasonable/best practice to write the captured power consumption value (with timestamp) into some logf…

I have downloaded and installed the desktop version of armbian on my Orange PI+ 2e and I have disabled the desktop and gpu with armbian-config as i only access the device through ssh. However I can't figure out how to re enable the gui of armbian so i can use vnc to access my server

Hello. I have installed debian based armbian with mainline kernel to my orange pi zero. And it seems like there is no i2c adapter present. As far I know it should work in mainline. Does anyone have a clue?

I tried to boot my brand new OrangePi PC Plus without SD card, and it boots to some Chinese OS. However, if I boot it with Armbian, it boots to Armbian. So my question is, is there some kind of "BIOS" or similar firmware preloaded on these devices? And if yes - is it possible to remove it with something else?

Hi all. I have been doing some interesting reading here. Thank you that you started this project. I saw it already in 2014 I think when I bought my Pcduino 3 Version A but I wasn't sure back there if this project was for real. The reason why I bought Pcduino3 in the first place was an idea of a media client/server so I could hook it up to my TV and watch youtube and or Netflix and maybe have a little ftpserver on it so I can transfer my favorite tv shows to it (I currently live in germany but I do not speak/understand it fluently and all tv channels here and in german ) and watch them comfortably on the sofa (my back hurts if I sit too long by PC), and a smal…

Or the problem is on DosBox side? Do I expec…

Platform oPi Plus 2E with Armbian 5.31 (Legacy). I have configured a WiFi adaptor, and it works fine in connecting to an existing hotspot. When I attempt to use network manager applet (or nm-connection-editor/nmtui from a root prompt) to create an Ad-hoc network I am getting permissions errors. For NM TUI it is 'Unable to save connection: Insufficient privileges.', and similar for the other methods. Can anyone give me some pointers on how to diagnose and/or fix this? From the research I have done the nm-applet error is likely a simple config error (not set up to run as root for this function), but the other avenues failures seem odd.

Hi, I own the first Orange Pi (A20, VGA, HDMI, NAND, 4xUSB, WiFi). I notice there is no Armbian image for download anymore. The last one I still have is a 3.4.113, 5.25 Ubuntu/Xenial-default-desktop (currently running from the NAND very well, but I can't seem to run the wifi in AP mode). Is Armbian for this board is dropped for good ? Is there a way to update my 5.25 to last version without breaking everything ? Or maybe convert a A20 image to this board, using the working image I'm currently using ? Thanks !

Hi All, I'm using the latest Debian mainline kernel image -> Armbian_5.31_Micro_Debian_jessie_next_4.11.5. I can't get the USB OTG port to work as host only.

Hello everybody. AFAIK Banana PI M1+ share the same costumed Armbian OS with Banana Pro. The Armbian can run pretty well without any changes on my Banana Pro. The problem is, with the same OS image, the on-board WiFi is not working and i can't remember what im doing (what i remember is I do something inside /boot directory), then the WiFi is detected and working properly on my Banana Pi M1+. My simple question is What is the right way to configure Armbian for Banana Pi M1+ after installation? I assume all the default configuration is for Banana Pro and we need some tweak for Banana Pi M1+ especially to enable on-board WiFi and to use GPIO properly.

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…

There are two USB dongles on my Orange Pi One box, one is a USB Bluetooth in USB-OTG port and other is a mu7601 USB WiFi in the USB port.

So I exchange two dongles each other , the one in USB port works, and the one in USB-OTG port always failed. Is there any solution?

Hi, yesterday I used the latest mainline built (https://dl.armbian.com/lime2/Debian_jessie_next.7z) on Olimex Lime2-emmc 4 GB but i can not access the eMMC.

Hi, we have found an issue with Armbian 5.31 on a Banana Pi M2+ board that occurs when IP forwarding is enabled and there is high network load. How to reproduce this issue: Enable IP forwarding on the M2+: sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 Install nginx or another web server on the M2+ Use ncat to send a large file (e.g. 4 GB) from one host to another via the M2+ Use ab to create additional load on the nginx server Soon there will be a kernel panic, for example (see attachment for more examples): Spoiler [ 169.520266] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000004 [ 1…

I have Orange PI Zero running the stable Ubuntu image. Kernel: Linux orangepizero 3.4.113-sun8i. I'm writing a python3 app to communicate with an Arduino using UART. The app works fine for a few hours and then it stops being able to send or receive commands to/from the Arduino. Is there some known issue with the UART on OPI Zero? It looks like the file descriptor for the serial port becomes unavailable somehow.

I am new to OPi+2E & Armbian combo. When booted up, all outgoing traffic is fine (though speed is very slow) but no incoming traffic gets successful, e.g. SSH and Ping. I tried DHCP and Static IPs. I believe there is no firewall running. I connected to WiFi through armbian-config and WiFi also connected but no incoming on either interface. If I disconnect LAN cable while WiFi is still connected, incoming traffic works on WiFi. As soon as I connect LAN cable again, incoming stops working on both interfaces. Same behaviour on Raspbian and Armbian. Is there some firmware I need to update? Help will be appreciated.

Hi, I am running Armbian Jessie (4.11.6-sunxi) on Banana Pi M1. For reading and writing SD cards I use linux dd cmd on another box. I do not have a Windows system. My question is this: My SD card is a 16Gb device. With gparted I can reduce the size of the system to a partition that would easily fit on a 4Gb device. But when writing the .img file dd will still see and write an image of 16 Gb There must be a way to make an image that can be written to and booted from a smaller device to save resources on the backup disk. Can anyone point me in the right direction ?

On orange pi pc I am using armbian leatest version. But Cannot enable video out (rca) on orange pi pc. Please help me.

Hi. Is it possible to toggle usb power on Orange PI Zero? What does PL2 do?

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?

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.

The sytem acted a bit wierd, so I rebooted it. Since the moment, the server did not launch, rebooting itself again and again. I edited boot script to get more informations, and this is the moment, where the sytem gets stucked before it reboots (I have panic set to 180, so this screen is visible for around 3 mins). Banana pi M1 armbian 5.14 installed on SDcard and HDD This is not PSU error, since other distros are running smoothly. This is not SDcard error, since I dded this SDcard to another and tested it.

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…

[EDIT: The solution to this was realizing I'd been handed Banana Pi's (which have no WiFi), not Banana Pro's (which do have WiFi). I wasted a few days on this.] Hey guys, I'm sure you're sick of hearing this, but I have no WiFi with latest Banana Pi Pro image. No errors in dmesg, lsmod shows "brcmfmac" is present, but no device in iwconfig.

This is on a fresh build of Armbian from source. I'm not seeing the camera appearing in /dev/video0, as you would expect. I've tried the solution that @sri suggested on this thread https://forum.armbian.com/index.php?/topic/3225-nanopi-neo-air-cam500b-issue/ but the device is still not visible.

Hi Martin and others I started a new Thread because have problems using some third party interfaces with OrangePI running Armbian. Well.. In my project I need to communicate with 5 sensors which have UART output so I decided to buy a circuit (uart2spi) which work well if connected to Arduino. The Circuit description is available here: http://www.rowlandtechnology.com/projects/2015/09/25/spi-to-4-x-uart-bridge-multiuart-project/ First step: This is how I have connected the circuit to GPIO bus on my OrangePi pc.. The circuit has (from left to right) +3.3V pin, MISO, MOSI, SCK (clock), CS and GND.. I have connected…

Just bumped this one: Orange Pi Zero, stable version, legacy kernel Trying to insert Realtek WiFi dongle (8188eu in my case).

Original solution has value "2", but it was just a guess, so I used "1". Module worked in parallel with original xradio. According to original poster on 4pda, this issue was seen on Orange Pi PC. Not sure, is it correct solution, but, well - it may help. Issues seen - when I try to un…

Running on Virtualbox-compiled Armbian_5.32_Orangepiplus_Ubuntu_xenial_dev_4.11.5.img. I installed docker and am trying to run a pihole container. Because it's a new image, it tries to download it. But it never gets to the end, because it always freezes. OrangePi+ stops answering pings and I have to hard reboot. Here's almost what it looks like before locking up. I've also had it lock up during file transfers, differs from one time to the other.

Env is ARMBIAN 5.31 stable Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS 3.4.113-sun8i When I run Kismet on this system (which creates a new interface in Monitor mode - wlan0mon), the original WiFi interface loses any connections, and will no longer function properly. Is this a expected behavior? Is there any way to get both monitor and normal mode to co-exist? I've looked around and don't see any obvious driver updates that would address this. Any suggestions (beyond adding a second WiFi adapter)?

I'm trying to stream audio from my windows pc to a orange pi running `ARMBIAN 5.30 stable Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS 3.4.113-sun8i`, in the verbose output in the pc and in the orange pi shows that the connection has been stablished but it gets refused right after with no "explanation". I'm following intructions from this thread, it shows how to add the tcp protocol to pulseaudio in the orange pi and on the windows machine the audio is captured with linco and it streams with plink (putty command line interface). Why the connection would be refusing to stay connected? PS: in the installation process `/etc/default/pulseaudio` didn't exist after pulseaudio installation, but as i…

FriendlyARM has recently launched a new board in its NEO family: NanoPi NEO Plus2 As of Armbian_5.32.170704_Nanopineo2_Ubuntu_xenial_dev_4.11.8.img, few things aren't working: out of 1GB RAM, only 512MB is visible the USB socket closer to the edge (USBN1) is not visible, even with overlays Wifi and Bluetooth are not visible (AP6212A) (it's not a complaint, but just a statement

The board does not start with Debian Jessy. Blank screen.

Is an OS compiled for Banana Pi M1 compatible with BPi M2 ? I would like an answer to this question before I try it out. Anyone tried it? thanks.

Hello guys, I've been trying for the past month to get USB OTG and I2C to work on a NanoPI NEO AIR running Armbian, without any success. For OTG what I've tried was adding the following to "sun8i-h3-nanopi-neo-air.dts": &usb_otg { dr_mode = "otg"; status = "okay"; }; I have also enabled OTG and I2C in the kernel config menu, but for I2C I couldn't find what to put inside the DTS file. Can someone give me pointers on how to solve this, please? Yes, I am a very inexperienced developer when it comes to embedded systems and have very poor understanding of how to properly configure a device tree source file. Any help wo…

Good evening, I'm using a NanoPi Neo Air for streaming audio via bluetooth to a I2S sink. It's working in general but the audio data breaks away every second. It's always a on/off.

I set the UART ttyS3 speed to 1500000 bit/s: My Fexedit looks like that: [bt_para] │ │bt_used = 1 │ │bt_uart_id = 3 │ │bt_uart_baud = 1500000 │ …

I need to attach some devices via spi and i2c to an orange pi zero but would like to keep it in its original case. Just soldering a few wires to the gpio pins and drilling a hole in the case isn't really an option. I am looking for a nice and clean way. Browsing through AliExpress looking for connectors has not revealed any suitable options so far. I already thought about adding an 2.54mm 2x26 Pin Male Double Row Right Angle Pin Header and cut a suitable hole to the case but I guess it would protrude too much. Which connector do you recommend? It should have at least 4 contacts. Has anyone modified the case and added some small connectors? Photos? Lookin…

Hi I need to execute some command when system is going down for halt/poweroff. I need to know this inside my script /etc/init.d/myScript which is called when system is going down. I used to do it by checking $runlevel variable and if it is set to 0, then system was going down for halt, it was working for instance in Raspbian a few years ago. However, in my Linux cubieboard2 4.9.12-sunxi Armbian this variable is not set, and when I execute "runlevel" command inside "STOP" case in myScript it says it is in N 5 runlevel which is not true because I have executed poweroff All tips are welcome Best Regards Marek
