Hi all I'm trying to set up a samba AD domain on a BananaPi M1+ running Armbian 5.31 (Debian Jessie) but fail miserably when trying to provision the domain. Using "samba-tool domain provision --use-rfc2307 --interactive", all starts well but then falls over with the error: Error loading module '/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/samba/vfs/acl_xattr.so': /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/samba/vfs/acl_xattr.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory error probing vfs module 'acl_xattr': NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL and a whole lot more. Bottom line is that this "acl_xattr.so" doesn't exist anywhere on the m…

Hi guys, I have just completed to build my "development workspace" including OpenCV, Qt5 and working OV5640. I've noticed that people reach about 30 fps of the frame rate using VGA/QVGA resolution. Datasheet says about 120 FPS for QVGA and 90FPS for VGA. I was working with this camera chip on STM32Fx and I got much better results than OPI0+ Is it weird, it is? I am wondering what is a limitation to get better performance and quality on this camera. I plan to write drivers myself, however I want to be sure it is only driver limitation. Any advice will be appreciated.

Hi, Since recent I have an issue that my Orangepi doesn't start anymore. My microSD is fine (did a full diskcheck using badblocks on ubuntu), en I can access all the files without issues. However, it doesn't want to boot. Every time I try to boot it (Orangepi pc), it gives the first black screen until starting kernel, and then gets stuck on the blinking underscore. For information: I have an Orangepi PC and Armbian 5.32 with mainline kernel. Now, this happened after I did an apt-get upgrade (incl. kernel upgrade) from 5.30 to 5.32, and then didn't reboot, but my orangepi had a short power interruption. After this it didn't want to start…

first off: I'm totally new in the Linux world, but it's really fun to play with *Pis! currently I'm on a OPILite but I have some RasPis lying around and just ordered a nanoPieNEO2. I'm trying to setup a filesystem that supports deduplication, as far as I can tell that's ZFS or BTRFS. After a lot of reading and learning I got BTRFS with bedup running, but bedup is only file-wise deduplication. The solution for block-wise would be duperemove, but I can't find/get/install/build it for armhf. Has somebody tried block-wise deduplication before and can point me in the right direction? I'm running armbian 5.31 on 4.11.5

Any advice for building for the H5 flavor of the Zero Plus? I am not new to kernal compiling or embedded systems dev but am rather new to compiling linux kernals FOR embedded systems. Currently using the H5 image from here: https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-zero-2-h5/ but there is no easy option to target this board when building from source.

Hi, It's been a while that I'm trying to activate the AP of the OP Zero 2+ but in vain. I already succeded activating it on the OP Light using hostapd.conf and interfaces.conf, but when I tried the exact same configuration on OP Zero 2+ the AP didn't work. I tried a lot of solutions found in the internet, but none of them seem to work. Please any help would appreciated !

Hello, I know that armbian for orangepi prime is under development. Armbian does not detect the integrated wifi, and I'd like to know if it's not implemented yet or it's happening just to me

Is it possible to build Volumio for the Orange Pi PC? I read at the bottom of the build readme on volumio that the armbian_orangepipc_legacy is not booting.. Does somebody know how I can get it to work? I want to transform my Orange Pi in an audio streaming device and volumio seems like a nice choice.

Did they improve the wifi on the orange pi zero plus 2, or does the wifi have the same problems as the orange pi zero?

I am new to Armbian and I have been using Jessie on BPI M2 for a couple weeks now but I can't seem to get it to automatically boot into desktop mode when no monitor is connected. It always seems to go right into command line. I have a number of pieces of software that have a GUI and need to run under desktop mode right off the bat that I would like to have at startup. I have been doing a lot of searching and have been wondering if it is a frambuffer issue. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I have two Olimex Lime 2 eMMC boards, both set up the same way – same HDDs, same batteries, same power supplies, etc. Both run: - Armbian 5.31 (although one was updated to it, and the other was freshly installed with that version) - Debian 9 “stretch“ (same issue when they were both on Debian 8 “wheezy” though) - Linux kernel 4.8.14-sunxi Yet, one shows the CPU temperature, and the other doesn’t.

Hi, I've been running armbian (Debian Jessie) on my Cubietruck successfully for a while now, its mainly just an mpd server. It runs as a headless server and I use the optical spdif connection, ethernet (although I used to use the wireless). I have my root partition on a 2.5" hdd. I currently have: linux-image-3.4.106-cubieboard linux-headers-3.4.106-cubieboard linux-firmware-image-3.4.106-cubieboard I've seen the page http://www.armbian.com/kernel/ and added the repository as instructed. I really just want to confirm if you think I'll run into any trouble with spdif and ethernet if I upgrade to mainline kernel. My understanding is that I …

I have tried a few different suggestions that I have seen online to implement wifi on Orange PC with a wifi dongle. However, none them can work reliably. OrangePi zero works but wifi speed is very slow (about 1-2Mbps). I recently tried using Raspberry Pi with wifi dongles. It is almost plug and play and very reliable. I hope there is a way to do the same on OPi. If anybody know one, please let me know. I will be happy to try it out and report back.

Hello, I have a cubieboard 2 (the one with only one SD slot) and there is a version of Linaro that is bootable in the NAND memory. I created a card with Debian Jessie Server (the last one) and boot it successfully, but when I run nand-sata-install I get a "No targets available. Please check your drives" pop up. I tried downloading the Debian Wheezy and creating a card and on that one I can see the nand memory blocks, but don't have the script to install and the one that came by default only installs to SATA (not to NAND). Anything I may be doing wrong here??

I have been using Debian Jessie on an Orange Pi Plus 2e, but decided to upgrade to Stretch so I could install Chromium (which isn't in the Jessie repositories). I substituted 'stretch' for 'jessie' in /etc/apt/sources.list, then did: $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade Everything went OK, until it hung while reconfiguring network manger. I restarted and re-ran sudo apt-get dist-upgrade. Everything else appeared to install OK except network-manager (which is shown as installed but half-configured) and network-manager gnome (which is shown as unpacked and not configured), If I try to fix network-manager using dpkg, this is what i get:…

Hi, What are the boot priorities on the Orange Pi Zero 2+ H3 / H5 boards? In case of a working eMMc boot, is it possible to prohibit any boot through SD? Thanks /R

Hello, I'm new to armbian, and I have a few questions. The image on the downloads page uses the legacy kernel (default branch), I used the desktop version of armbian 5.30. But is it possible to upgrade the kernel to the mainline version (4.11)? If so how? and are there any disadvantages? For example will hardware acceleration still be possible using mpv and so on? If it is better to stay on the legacy kernel, then I let everything as is.

Hi, I found a similar thread about space problem on /boot when upgrading the kernel, but it was with debian jessie, not Ubuntu, and the proposed "trick" doesn't seem to work anymore: This is what I get: Actually, I am facing this problem since I set up my system a year ago, but didn't take the time to solve it. But now, I would like to finish the aimed set up of the device (home server) and would like to get this out of the way. Thanks for any suggestion.

I'm having trouble getting the RaZberry zwave extension board working in Armbian 5.31 with the mainline kernel. Previously on Bananian I just symlinked ttyS2 to ttyUSB99 and I was able to use the RaZberry with OpenZwave. But now, I have no idea how to get it working. I guess it has got something to do with overlays for the kernel but I haven't been able to find out exactly sifting thru the internet... Help very much appreciated.

I've been playing with remote desktop from windows 10 to my orange pi plus 2e, finally got it working correctly using this forum tightvnc and xdrp . i was having trouble with it send all commands to the main user instead of the current remote session. the symptom of that was chrome didnt seem to work remotely, but when i checked the main screen many chrome windows were open. so i uninstalled vino, tightvnc, etc. and reinstalled tight and xdrp voila! ok so now chrome opens correctly so i went to test youtube which seemed a bit slower.. redraw etc. and no sound! so now my question is - does this remote setup support sound ?

Hello. I have my cubietruck (cubieboard 3) configured to boot from sd card, and other files stored on hdd (sata). Few weeks ago (~15.06.2017) I updated armbian by "apt-get dist-upgrade". It worked well until I switch power off. Now it can't boot from sd card. If I remove it - boot from nand is ok. Whet sd card installed - no activity on display, just blinkin LAN port. If I boot from nand, I cat mount both SD and HDD and explore filesystem. But I can't find any logs, updated since 17.06 (time then I switch it off). My guess problem is new kernel, from 4.11.4 to 4.11.5. Please help me fix this, I can take files and content from SD and HDD, but I don…

Hello all, I bought this OPZ, it was cheap and I was curious. Primarily for a yet-another-headles-server-without-wifi. I am used to different hardware and Debian since "the days You compiled Linux kernel in just 48 hours". I read quite a lot about OPZ and different OS solutions - You have quite a few weeks before You get Your parcel from China to Your mailbox in Sweden. My first SD card I bought from China, it was Kingston 16GB class 10 an all of that. Worked like charm in couple of hours then after reboot it was unreadable. I spent days in search for solution, tried to reformat it in different ways on different machines and using different OS and software combination.…

Hi! I have ARMBIAN 5.31 on my Banana Pi m1 and need some help. Early I used wheezy and mount webdav disk with davfs2 in fstab, but after I installed jessie fstab dont mount any davfs2 disk. Besides I have another problem: I use davfs2 to backup some video and photos to cloud storage throw webdav, and I have mistakes on large files (files much bigger then free space in /var/cache). Davfs2 send files in cache folder first (/var/cache/davfs2 by default) and then to webdav disk, so I have to use another disk with enough free space (sda1 in my case). When I was on wheezy I just point cache dir to sda in dafs2.config (cache_dir option) and all be OK, but i…

Hello, I'm trying to install Armbian to my Orange Pi Zero. I tried stable (5.30), dev (5.30 and old (5.24 from January 2017) versions of Debian and stable version (5.30) of Ubuntu. They all have the same problem. I log in from ssh using root/1234. Then I get prompted for password change. I enter the old password, new password twice, then I get logged out without any error message. When I try to login again, the password is unchanged and same prompt screen. I tried to write the images to my sdcard using dd, gnome disks, etcher. dd was not working at all, but the others have the problem I mention above. I was worried if my sdcard is not s…

I want to use an ADAU1979 with an olimex A20-Micro. Needs to show up as a device in ALSA, alongside the in- built CODEC - As far as I can see, this driver is in mainline kernel but I have no idea how to configure the kernel build to include it. Obviously we need to tell the system where its i2s/SPI interface is connected etc. Unsure which kernel version (legacy or mainline) to begin with. We do need a desktop environment and the olimex 10"/7" LCD to work also... I am starting this from a position not having built a kernel or kernel modules before so If this idea is a non-starter, someone please tell me so. Thanks.

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?

Hello everyone, As I was looking for to see the cause of not having any free memory left on this BananaPi, I found out that Clamav daemon is using all the free memory (44%), after stopping the service I could again see more free memory.

Good afternoon. I have an Orange Pi One and I need to achieve the maximum boot speed. The ultimate goal is a kiosk mode and the only application on the QT. The network is not needed.

I also can't ping the device after a while. Using the network manager, if I disable and then enable the wifi then everything works for a while. I have checked that the power Managment of the wifi is off. The whole time I can still browse the internet from the device with no problems. Any ideas on where to look …

Hey all, Sorry for the noob question, I posted this in another topic but it hasn't seen any action so I thought I would make a post. I have an Orange Pi PC, using the RetroOrangePi build which is based on Armbian. I'm having overscan issues on my 720p TV. I checked the options on the PC, there's no way to fix it there. They figured it out in this topic here (where I initially asked this question): The solution is to add code to u-boot in order to solve the overscan, or edit boot.cmd. My question is, will using u-boot be the best solution, or is it better to edit boot.cmd? Do I simply create a boot.cmd in something like note…

My Orange Pi Zero (rev 1.4) has a SPI flash module soldered to the underside. I can see the devices /dev/spidev0.0 and /dev/spidev1.0, and I can write to them and read from them (with dd), but the data I read from them is always just null bytes. Obviously then I can't create a filesystem on them. Is it possible to create a small filesystem on the SPI flash to add files? If not, how is it possible to store data on the SPI flash? I'm running Armbian 5.30 with kernel 3.4.113-sun8i.

Friends I have a keyboard Rii i8 + I put the adapter that comes with the keyboard I put to locate by the bluetooth of the armbian it finds but at the time of pairing in happens nothing, only blinks green in Bluetooth and nothing else.

Thanks.

OrangePi plus2e how do I get hardware acceleration to work in smplayer? I am recording tv using tvheadend and trying to play back using smplayer. I have tried the available options for video output driver and X11 (slow) is by far the best but is not useable as there is still alot of stuttering. top shows 138% mpv usage vdpau is colored almost horizontal lines All help is appreciated Dave

Hello, I've recently purchased an Orange Pi Zero and have Armbian 5.25 (Linux version 3.4.113-sun8i). My problem is that the network fails after some time (sometimes couple of minutes but half an hour at most). I'm not able to ping it at all. I've checked the logs in /var/log and can't find what is wrong, at least to my knowledge. Here is the boot log http://sprunge.us/gRjf, so if anyone has any idea please share. Other logs are uploaded as well orange_pi_zero_logs.7z

I am trying to test the ap6212-bluetooth script in the latest desktop image for the Orange Pi Zero +2 (H5), but am having no luck... Is there something I am missing about running this script?

Updated my bananapi pro to from 5.30 minutes ago...but now it doesnt boot ;-( Any possibility to get my system back without setting up completely new? Never had this with all update before.....

Hi, Does anyone has image for Orange Pi Zero 2+ H3 Ubuntu Dekstop Kernel > 4.x? Thanks.

Hello, I'm running ARMBIAN 5.25 stable with kernel 4.9.12-sunxi on my Cubietruck and I mostly use it as an AP. I've installed the "hostapd" package from the official armbian repository and it works fine until I want to connect more than 5 wireless clients. The kernel module used is "brcmfmac" provided by the armbian-firmware package. Is it an hardware limit and how can I bypass it if possible ? The working default config provided with hostapd package is below: ssid=ARMBIAN interface=wlan0 hw_mode=g channel=5 driver=nl80211 ctrl_interface=/var/run/hostapd ctrl_interface_group=0 logger_syslog=0 logger_syslog_level=0 wmm…

Hi folks, I installed armbian with success on my orangepi zero. I was able to configure wifi and even fix some display issues on tv. But I am struggling to get a graphical manager running, I tried to start lightdm using: sudo start lightdm but I get "start command not found". any hints ? Thank you

Is it possible to soft reset USB device/hub on legacy kernel? On x86 I used to use some C code (opening usb and sending ioctl USBDEVFS_RESET) but id does not work here on arm...

Nano Pi Neo, Armbian (Armbian_5.27.170422_Nanopineo_Ubuntu_xenial_dev_4.10.11) External USB device works fine when connected via USB-A jack, but doesn't work when connected to 2.54 pin header (2,3). Is there some additional steps to activate internal (usb1, usb2) ports, or it's hardware problem?

I just checked the mali blob: mali450r5p001rel0linux1fbdevarm64v8a (fbdev) and this blob is working on the legacy kernel with the proper patches. Nevertheless we may have some stability issues at the current voltage/frequence; Indeed gl-mark2-es-fb crashes around the refract test on my board.

i make this post to ask why my orange pi zero reaches easy 85 degrees with a heatsink applied to it. It is placed in a big case. Maybe the temperature reading is wrong? i check temperature with " armbianmonitor -m and i get: Time CPU load %cpu %sys %usr %nice %io %irq CPU 09:28:26: 480MHz 0.55 28% 4% 23% 0% 0% 0% 86°C 09:28:31: 240MHz 0.51 28% 4% 23% 0% 0% 0% 86°C 09:28:36: 480MHz 0.54 28% 4% 23% 0% 0% 0% 86°C what can i do? I'm actually using the orange pi zero as a flight tracker, which is a very cpu and Wi-Fi intensive task, but i think that 86 degrees are too much!!

Hi all, I'm trying to use an Orange Pi PC Plus to drive an RS485 serial converter and ultimately talk Modbus to a sensor device. I have managed to get flow control enabled on the port, but the polarity of the RTS signal is active LOW, whereas the converter I have requires active HIGH. Is there any way to invert the polarity of the RTS pin for the UART? I think it can be done via ioctl call in C programs, but I need this applied at a system level to be compatible with some third party software. Thanks in advance!

I use armbian installed on emmc of Nanopi neo air. I want use the sdcard, buit i can't see the card. I insert the card after i boot from emmc. How can i mount the card?

I've been playing with Orange Pi Zero. I've been playing with both Armbian_5.25_Orangepizero_Ubuntu_xenial_default_3.4.113.img and Armbian_5.25_Orangepizero_Debian_jessie_default_3.4.113.img . I've been using a FTDI communication Serial adapter on a Mac Laptop via Terminal $ screen ≺port_name≻ ≺baud_rate≻ In my case the screen command looked like this: $ screen /dev/tty.usbserial-AE00BS5L 115200w What I've discovered is when I'm using serial communications, tools like $ nano filenamee or $ nmtui , the system interface gets all screwed up. If you have the commands memorized, you can still use Nano (barely) but not so easy with nmtui. The scree…

Hi, I was just wondering if anyone else out there with a Win+ has this issue .... when I install from an image file all works well, WIFI etc all good.

Hello I have an issue with my wifi, it's not reliable. There is no problem with my laptop, or any other devices on my network, but my NanoPi Neo is disconneted after a few hours. It can stay alive for an half a day, and after it become unreachable. As I have no other connection to my NanoPi it's a bit hard to establish what appens. But if I unplug the USB Wifi dungle, and replugged it the link come back. Doing a ping to the NanoPi, I see regular "Request timeout for icmp_seq" - every 20, 50 or 100 request, it depends - and sometime the request time is abnormally huge: serveral seconds. The config has bee done with nmtui, the…

So first I'm new using armbian on Opi PC. I'm trying using my Opi like a mediaserver on my TV. I install Kodi and everything is ok. I'm now trying to fix some Audio problem. When I watch e video on Youtube, some of them have e perfect sound, some of them have a lot of interferences, so mutch that I can't hear anymore anything of the video. I already configure asound.conf with the card I'm using, i tried already using only HDMI for video and audio or to separate HDMI only for video and 3.5 jack for audio. Both solutions are giving me the same problem. I install every codec I found, also the vlc complete with the browser-plugin, but no way. I t…

Hi folks, I tried to run jdownloader on orange pi pc under armbian 5.25 but it was not successful, i noticed that java uses more than 100% of cpu, is it normal ? Best regards. Adel.

I understand I'm working with an experimental build...just breaking stuff to learn... Is Xwindows a complete no-go on the current Xenial build? What have you done to get X to load?

I recently switched from a Raspberry Pi 2 running Arch Linux to a Banana Pi (the original) running Armbian for music streaming using MPD. My output device is an XMOS-based Gustard U12 asynchronous USB transport feeding my DAC via AES/EBU. Using Armbian on the Banana Pi, all my 24-bit/192kHz music is being played back as 24/96, according to the display on the transport and DAC. All other sample rates (44.1, 88.2 etc.) are being played back in their native sample rates, as expected. Is ALSA on Armbian system-wide limited to 96 kHz? I have never had an issue like this before, and I don't know where to begin in regards to troubleshooting. I'm guessing th…

I got a new board revision of the Olimex A20-OLInuXino-MICRO Board (Rev. J). It works with the by Olimex provided Jessie image but not with Armbian_5.25_Micro_Debian_jessie_next_4.9.7. I get no IP address by DHCP because the ethernet is not working. The reason could be an new ethernet chipset they introduced with this revision. New: Microchip's LAN8710AI-EZK(QFN-32). Before: Realtek RTL8201CP(LQFP-48) They publish a patch on: https://github.com/OLIMEX/OLINUXINO/blob/master/SOFTWARE/A20/A20-build-3.4.103-release-5/a20-phy_1000_100-dram.patch

Theoretically Armbian supports wifi on BPI M2+ since v5.13. I'm on v5.25 desktop version, bluetooth works but no wifi. Do I need to install any drivers?

I was curious to see how Mainline kernel performs on GbE test against a Legacy kernel. For the Armbian side i chose the nightly dev Armbian_5.27.170602_Orangepiwin_Ubuntu_xenial_dev_4.11.1_desktop.img (Desktop) and for the Legacy i chose my own build with all "Bells and whistles" (full Desktop, hdmi, camera, bt and wifi). I did not optimized Armbian Mainline, just installed and run stock. For the Legacy i optimized as usual. If there is some optimization to do on Mainline side, i missed. I have some observations about the board and results: * Board is without Heat-sink, * Legacy subsequent test got lower values, i suspect it runs h…

Hi everyones, Last week, I tried to read the value from DS18b20 temperature sensor to log it in the monitor system I already have. But I could not get its value. I connect the DS18b20 with 4.7k pull up resistor to the pin 16th on the board, which is I guess is IO-4 [PH20] pin. What I have tried? - I have tried this: http://www.linuxx.eu/2014/09/banana-pi-temperature-sensor-ds18b20.html Step I did: Convert the /boot/script.bin to bananapi.fex, then add [w1_para] gpio = 4 to the end of file, save and convert it back to /boot/script.bin. Reboot. Problem: No w1 dir found in the /sys/bus (expecting it will show w1 dir b…

Hey folks! On monday I was able to fix the overscanning issue of my Orange Pi zero (read here). Because fiddling around with the register values can be pretty harsh some times I decided to created a small programm to move the picture of the composite video output. You can find the project page here: https://projects.nwrk.biz/projects/allwinner-tvout With this tool you can easily move the picture relative to its actual position by just calling : $ sudo tvout -m -x <value in px> -y <value in px> To reset the position you can use: $ sudo tvout -r I hope some of you may find this useful. If I have enoug…

I received today my BPI M2+, however, I cannot make it boot. I tried both Diet Pi and Armbian Server. No boot. The red LED is on all the time. I'm using a Samsung EVO 32 GB SD card flashed with Etcher on Ubuntu. My power supply is a 5v 3A barrel connector. Since the usual suspects are not the cause, I have no idea what might be going wrong.

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…

Hi All, I used armbian for a few month and it works pretty good for me. Everything start going bad since I update it with RAID 1.1 board. Current system: Cubietruck + RAID board + Armbian (actual Ubuntu Xenial next) The issue is that board do not want to accept HDDs without reformatting them in a first row, ok, I made a full backup and after new installation from SD to the RAID just restore it --> It does not boot up even if I change fstab and armbianenv.txt in a boot section. I change /boot/armbianenv.txt (or how it called) parameter UUID to SD card back and could boot again, but system is on SD card. I perform…

I'm running what I believe is the latest experimental for the neo2 - 5.27.170601. This could well be a problem related to something that doesn't yet work in this build. I've built strongswan on the neo and everything built fine and installed. ipsec starts and I'm able to bring a tunnel up to a remote vpn server that I know is fine and is verified working from some other box with identical connection and key configuration that I'm using on the neo2. When the tunnel is brought up on the neo2 it seems I'm not able to get any traffic to flow i.e. curl api.ipify.org should return the public ip of the remote vpn server but it just hangs. When the tunnel…
