Hi folks, A few months back, I set up an Orange Pi Prime on Armbian Bionic (Armbian_5.52.180715_Orangepiprime_Ubuntu_bionic_dev_4.18.0-rc4.7z). I'm now putting together a home automation workshop around this configuration, but it looks like it's now missing from the website (https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-prime/) and download site (https://dl.armbian.com/orangepiprime/). Is Bionic no longer supported for this board, or was this an oversight? Is there something I can do to help?

Hello, I have been looking for days without finding an answer, so here goes. I want to know if there is a way of turning on the banana pi, without using the onboard switch. Because the Banana pi r1 doesn't power on automatically when powered by the battery connector. And i don't want to solder wires on the pwr button, but i would also like to avoid using the usb connections because of the lower power throughput. Thank you in advance for the information.

I'm on 'cat /etc/os-release|grep ARMBIAN_PRETTY_NAME' = ARMBIAN_PRETTY_NAME="Armbian 24.11.1 bullseye"

Hi to all! I'm taking my first steps with an Orange Pi PC+. Before I did projects with raspberry pi, but the extra functionality provided by emmc memory has made me decant for orange pi. So my problems are related to the compatibility of gpio functionality. I have two SPI devices (TFT and RFID reader), and I want use PA21 pin for SPI1_CS. I changed /boot/script.bin file for second SPI activate adding this lines: [spi1] spi_used = 1 spi_cs_bitmap = 1 spi_cs0 = port:PA21<2><1><default><default> spi_sclk = port:PA14<2><default><default><default> spi_mosi = port:PA15<2>…

The latest mainline u-boot + lamobo R1 patch does not appear to work when you try dhcp or ping on a Lamobo R1 (also known as Banana Pi R1) board. I wonder if the u-boot code needs to be modified to take care of the specifics of the GMAC/switch chip on a Lamobo R1 board. The defconfig for Lamobo R1 is the same as that for Banana Pi. Please shed some light to this issue. Thanks a lot. JLu

Hey guys I'm setting up a Cubietruck with Armbian_5.04_Cubietruck_Ubuntu_trusty_3.4.110_desktop.zip, and I cannot mount any of my unmounted volumes. Installing gksu didn't fix it. Any tips?

Hi Guys! I am experimenting with an Orange PI Zero H5 and have noticed that there is no CEC support in Armbian Is it something that is worked on and i should expect it to be present in the H5 Armbian builds anytime soon ? I have found some guides with Kernel Patches etc but i am a Linux noob and it's a nuclear physics for me atm. Anyone can clear that out for me ?

Hello, I recently received my first orange pi. When I shutdown lite from armbian menu, yellow light does not turn off. The only way to make it turn off is remove the power plug. Is this normal? Also, I can't restart armbian by pressing the power button after shutting down. I have to unplug and plug the power cable for restart every time. Is that normal too?

Hi all, can anyone suggest a dual band wifi module with ac standard working on armbian? Thanks!

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

hi, I have an OPI pc with armbian (legacy kernel), plan to set it as NAS. due to it has 4 USB ports without internal hub, so I decide to connect 3 USB HDD to it, and create a LVM+RAID5. but unfortunately, OPI pc can only recognize 2 USB HDD(any 2 of these 3 USB hdd), at any USB ports, the 3rd USB HDD can be found by lsusb but stops at "spinning up...." no /dev/sdc. but if I insert an USB disk, (with 2 USB HDD already inserted), it can be recognized and /dev/sdc is created. I guess whether there is a power supply issue. can this be fixed by USB HDD with additional power supply? is that right?

I am getting significant graphical issues with most programs on the "Jammy Gnome desktop" version. I also saw similar issues under KDE desktop after clicking a button relating to OpenGL in the graphics settings (and couldn't figure out how to get that dialog back or undo the setting). I would prefer to stick with Gnome, I assume this issue has something to do with hardware/graphics acceleration having an issue, the application launcher seems to be immune from the issue. Sorry, I am quite a noob when it comes to Linux/programming related stuff, I couldn't find any other mentions about similar issues in this forum. The issue happens on both this 5" LCD and an HDMI TV at 4k.

Last year I started a solar-sensing project with the Orange-Pi-Zero (256k), Armbian5.25, legacy kernel and made it work after a while. The Wifi funktion was rather poor and deteriorating, so I ordered a new OpiZero-Plus2-H3, same physical shape and connectors (I thought). Now the -P2 Armbian image 5.30 for the new board loaded perfectly, the Wifi function is really improved due to better hardware. The python part of the code works (still) perfectly. Only (most of) the gpio-functions of my project do not work any more with the new board attached. I use PA07, PA13 and PA14 for bit-bang gpio and a 1-wire sensor via the kernel. I modified the OPi-P2 fex file, shipped wit…

Hi guys, I´m trying install kodi 18 on my orange pi lite with this tutorial (https://ua3nbw.ru/all/kodi-18-armbian-orangepi/) everything is fine, but MPV player is complete missing on armbian OS. Why? Thank you.

I built an image for the `orangepi-z-2w` via `./compile.sh build BOARD=orangepizero2w BRANCH=current BUILD_DESKTOP=no BUILD_MINIMAL=no KERNEL_CONFIGURE=no RELEASE=bookworm`. The wifi connects (shows as active), however, I am unable to get on the internet (pinging results in `network is unreachable`, also can't ping the device itself). Am I building wrong? Thanks! Some notes: - I've been using `Armbian_24.2.6_Orangepizero2w_bookworm_current_6.6.28.img.xz` in the past (downloaded from armbian.com), and the wifi works just fine.

Hello, my orange pi pc has recently started to have reduced speeds. Where I used to get the full 100Mbit on lan, I now get around 30Mbit, be it sftp, samba, http. Speed flanctuates a bit but stays around the 30MBit so no big differences. I am able to write with consistent speeds of over 10MB/s on the microsd so that can't be the problem (using dd) and full ~30MB/s on the attached sata disk. uname -a Linux orangepipc 3.4.113-sun8i #10 SMP PREEMPT Thu Feb 23 19:55:00 CET 2017 armv7l GNU/Linux Any ideas what I can check?

I've been trying out some of the pre-built Armbian images on my Orange Pi Zero to get a taste for the OS and it's perfect for my purposes, however I've noticed something odd about the current mainline images that's possibly a small oversight. I browsed the forums before posting and noticed that TV Out functionality has been disabled by default on H3-based boards due to an interference with HDMI output on mainline, which is naturally understandable. There's only one small problem - the same patch has been applied to H2+ boards which lack an HDMI Out altogether. I've explored the image currently provided (the latest …

It all works fine apart from one thing: while other devices can successfully use BIND on the server, the server itself cannot find the local BIND. If I type in this command host device.localdomain 127.0.0.1 it returns the following: device.localdomain has address 192.168.0.20 192.168.0.20 is the correct address for device.localdomain from the local BIND. If I omit the 127.0.0.1 from the command, it does not find the correct address.: device.localdomain has address 36.86.63.182 device.localdomain has address 36.86.63.182 Host device.localdomain not …

Hi, I've bought Orange Pi Prime from the second hand. I've also bought 5V 3A power supply. It it was booting with Debian and Armbian. I was using Kingston SDHC cards. Suddenly my board stopped booting from mmc card. I also tried to boot it from Sandisk A1 class card but with no success. Do ypu think it is hardware malfunction or something else?

I tested the actual Xenial on my BPP but got a crashdump each time I reboot or shutdown the system. I found, that armhwinfo was causing this crash by removing the module a20_tp. Disabling the line /sbin/modprobe -r $(cut -f1 -d' ' </proc/modules) in /etc/init.d/armhwinfo avoid this problem. This line is part of a patch Thomas Kaiser introduced in October last year. I don't know, if this problem occurs only in my configuration (nothing special, but a connected Lemaker 5" LCD may be the difference), or it is related to the Kernel 3.4.113 only, but it goes reproducably wrong, if this line is active. It cause the oposite of the intention of this patch, because after…

Hey Community! I installed Armbian Jessie without any problem to SD Card. HDMI was the default screen output, and I changed to VGA with the help of this topic: http://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic/445-debian-images-cubietruck-vga-output-problem/ The next boot went fine, VGA works. But, after the system upgrade-update, after the reboot the screen is HDMI again. I checked the card's file system with NAND ubuntu, the output order (the 4 row) is 4-4-4-4. So, I can't understand. The VGA monitor is fine, working in the next few phase before the kernel starts, but after that: just blinking. If I connect the Samsung HDTV, the desktop present there.... Thanks for t…

Hello, I have a custom board with A20 and I like to share the UART7(I20/I21) pins. I mean sometimes used as UART and other times used as output ports. Should I always change the FEX file to use one u other functionality. The perfect way is using both option without restart the system. Thanks!

Hello! Anybody help me, please.. How to set up HDMI to connect monitor? How to make it reboot normally on "shutdown -r now"? Kind regards, Ellad

Hi friends, I have read a lot document about booting orange pi zero over usb flash. I flashed latest mainline u-boot to orange pi's SPI Flash. I can boot the system via the usb port which is next to the ethernet. Can I boot the system via the usb ports USB2 and USB3 that the h2+ has and the expansion card that can use it?. I can not see these USB's through u-boot terminal. thanks.

Hello. I am using baresip for SIP communication. I have faced a problems with audio USB adapter (http://www.hardkernel.com/main/products/prdt_info.php?g_code=G141629380416) with C-media chip. I have set it as default sound card. I make a call using baresip. Until I answer the call on another device it works, it rings. But when I answer, kernel errors occurs and Orange Pi hangs (cannot do anything): Message from syslogd@localhost at Sep 18 11:20:18 ... kernel:[ 226.378730] sunxi oops: enable sdcard JTAG interface Message from syslogd@localhost at Sep 18 11:20:18 ... kernel:[ 226.380906] sunxi oops: cpu frequency: 1008 MHz Message from syslogd@localhost at…

I wanna start out and say I have been using Armbian for a year and it's been great. Thank you. I have built many images over the year and have only noticed the issue recently. I have noticed in the bionic builds for OpiZ+ that some base level packages are missing. The one I noticed was netplan. This is the new standard for bionic. I have not compiled a complete list of missing packages at this time. I had built this image before around 5.0-5.1 kernel release without issue. Netplan was included. Current build at 5.3 RC does not include this package. I suspect that others may be removed. Are these packages missing intentionall…

Hi, i have managed to install a wiring Pi version for my Orange Pi lite following this tutorial: https://gist.github.com/lanefu/f16a67195c9fa35c466c6b50cdaeadea The basic examples with inputs and outputs are working fine. Since I want to use a rotary encoder and not loose any steps I want to use a interrupt driven callback. There is an example as well but that does not work. I get: wiringPiISR: unable to open /sys/class/gpio/gpio25/value: No such file or directory I also tried several other libraries but non was working. Has anybody managed to get GPIO interrupt based callbacks working with python an an Oragnge Pi ?

Dear all, I need your help. I've built a fresh pcDuino3 firmware: Armbian 5.14 Pcduino3 -default - Debian 8 Jessie - CLI - Kernel 3.4.112 And now I'm trying to enable UARTs (2, 5 and 6). I've edited script.bin and now I got 4 ttyS devices. Could you please tell me how to "atctivate" those UARTs and which pins shoul I use. I guess that UART2 (ttyS1) uses D0 and D1 pins UART5 (ttyS2) uses SPI0_CS and SPI0_CLK pins UART6 (ttyS3) uses SPI0_MOSI and SPI0_MISO pins Am I right ? And how to enable ttySs? I tried following for the UART2 echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio/export echo 25 > /sys/class/gpio/export I attached my fex. file and pcDuino3 schema Unfortu…

Hi Folks, I have a NanoPi NEO Air with Armbian Bookworm. Previously I was running Armbian 23.11.1 Bookworm with Linux 6.1.63-current-sunxi, but after an apt upgrade I am now with Armbian 24.2.1 Bookworm with Linux 6.6.16-current-sunxi. With this latest upgrade I completely lost the USB console feature which for my application is a MUST. How can I fix it? Have a nice day, Mattia

So you guys that have more experience, what should I be looking at, when I find some code that runs on a Raspberry Pi to verify that it will also run on the Orange Pi PC? If I find some interesting code on Github for example . Regarding GPIO I think there shouldn't be any problem, since we have WiringOPI and that py20a or how its called. But what about i2c lcd's, max7219 matrix displays, other stuff? How does it differ the compatibility of boards between python and C code?

I under stand OPi-GPIO is a drop-in replacement library for RPi.GPIO for the Orange Pi Zero. It added a new GPIO pin definition GPIO.SUNXI. However, I cannot find its definition. Can somebody let me know or point me to a link where it is defined? Thanks.

Hi there, I recently purchased a NanoPi NEO Air from FriendlyElec with a CAM500B module. It works alright with the mjpg-streamer and their provided Ubuntu Core. I built an Arabian 5.27 Nano Pi Air Debian Jessie image with the default kernel and the device is no longer found. I've forced the load of ov5640 and vfe_v4l2 in /etc/modules, but /dev/video0 isn't appearing. The kernel log has this in it when the module is loaded: [ 116.519650] [OV5640@lex]init_sensor - frame_rate: 0, max_win_size: 11 If I boot back to Ubuntu Core via SD, the camera is back.

fresh install on orange pi zero, got mail and found about 23MB various log files were sent out. it's serious, to where? to Armbian?

Hello there. I'm trying to set up GPIO pins PD15 and PD16 on my OrangePi 3 LTS to work as input pins using device tree overlays. The overlay I have created is the following (for PD15 only): /dts-v1/; /plugin/; / { compatible = "allwinner,sun50i-h6"; fragment@0 { target = <&pio>; __overlay__ { my_pins:my_pins { pins = "PD15"; function = "gpio_in"; default-state = "on"; }; }; }; fragment@1 { target-path = "/"; __overlay__ { my@0 { compatible = "my-gpio"; pinctrl-names = "default"; pinctrl-0 = <&my_pins>; gpios = <&pio 3 15 0>; status = "okay"; }; }; }; }; Probably …

Hello, How to shutdown or reboot correctly with armbian jessie server 5.25 on Beelink X2 ?

Hi, I have recently installed the latest Bionic on my Teres laptop. Unfortunately all the desktop elements are invisible: no icons or panels. Here is a photo: https://skyportal.xyz/_AUx7VZt6n2vp_QPu4LG4uLpafQMTK37xTFclUaK7rszfA

Hello, I have 2 Orange Pi Zero boards, one with 256MB RAM and one with 512MB RAM. I tried running both: Armbian_5.25_Orangepizero_Ubuntu_xenial_default_3.4.113.img and Armbian_5.24.170110_Orangepizero_Ubuntu_xenial_4.9.0.img, but the same thing happens. When I power on the OPZ, a few seconds later the Red LED starts blinking and doesn't stop... The issue is present on both boards. Any suggestions?

Dear all, I'm missing ttyS1 from the devicelist on my cubietruck with mainline uboot and debian Jessie kernel 3.18. Now i can not use my bluetooth module because it is not reachable. I've searched on the internet and the defenition of one (or more) uart port seems to be missing in the devicetree dtb file. Like in: http://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic/382-armbian-on-pcduino3/ Has anyone fixed this for the cubietruck?

Hi, so without knowing what the swappiness actually is I changed the value from 100 to 512. Since then, I can't boot my Banana Pi M2 Zero. Shortly after that, I remembered again: swappiness is the percentage of how often to use swap and not the maximum amount of storage. Can I repair it inside uboot? Can I plug the sd card into my PC and edit the files there? Here is the log from the serial console. It's stuck forever after the last line. ..............................................................

Hello guys here is a couple of questions regarding Mali/EGLFS on OrangePi One and Armbian v4.4.*. I am going to cross-compile and use Qt5 Embedded on Armbian v4.4.* and I strongly need QML engine for my development which requires eglfs plugin. Is Mali GPU supported on this version of OS ? How/where to get/compile user mode libraries (EGL+GLESv2) for this version of OS ? Thank you

Hi, I'm working with mpd on armbian 20.02.0 with i2s device and found some problem: periodically sound is interrupted. I enable verbose logging in mpd and I get message: May 20 04:36 : alsa_output: Underrun on ALSA device "hw:0,0" May 20 04:36 : alsa_output: Underrun on ALSA device "hw:0,0" May 20 04:37 : alsa_output: Underrun on ALSA device "hw:0,0" This is not permanent and some time maybe work fine, but if it starts, messages go with an interval of 10-11 seconds until I restart mpd.

Hi. Simple task: connect Orange Pi Zero+ (on H5) to TV by composite (RCA). Why? Because it haven't got any other options for video (and my relatives has TVs with RCA ;-)). I find solutions for H2+ and H3, but nothing for H5 and latest Armbian. Asking for help.

Hello everyone, I was running Armbian Xenial (mainline 4.11.8 kernel) on Win Plus and it was working pretty good (after a little fix). But after some bad configurations (the system was still working..), I decided to re-install the whole system. The thing is that there are no more mainline builds for this board on the download page and 3.10 kernel is too old (I need at least 4.9)... So I decided to build the system but I have some issues that makes the board pretty useless. The first is that there is no more Ethernet, no blinking light on the board neither on the switch... The second are the USB port : The two USB ports on the right of th…

I recently ordered 3 A20-OLinuXino-LIME2-e16GB devices (with 16GB eMMC) and received rev. K boards. Unfortunately, I have troubles with both "official" Olimex eMMC rel 16 image and latest (as of last week) Armbian Stretch images. Both images booted fine from SD card (also tried multiple SD cards, one of them bought from Olimex ) and I was able to run the emmc.sh / nand-sata-install scripts fine. Now the troubles started as I turned off the device, removed the sd-card and tried to boot from eMMC. All 3 boards had entered FEL mode. From fel mode I was able to use the `sunxi-fel` utility and push the uboot fine... Initially I was able to g…

I'm on an Orange PI PC running Armbian_23.08.0-trunk_Orangepipc_bullseye_edge_6.5.1_minimal I've enabled analog audio out the 3.5mm jack using overlays=analog-codec in /boot/armbianEnv.txt I'm connecting the analog 3.5mm jack to a 3watt amp & speakers. It works mostly, but I only get audio on the left channel. Alsa mixer Line Out only allows one channel to be unmuted at a time - left channel or right channel. Left channel sounds pretty good (DAC reversed appears to increase dynamic output). Right channel is very low volume and appears to be "squelched" - is the audio signal reversed from ground or something? Anyway, is there some …

Like whaaaaaa... Okay, so long and frustrating story short, I have been having inexplicable stability issues on my Banana Pro. I have blamed the SD card, the power supply, the micro USB cable, but none of those leads seemed to actually lead anywhere. I connected up a Fluke multimeter to the SATA power output, set to peak min mode, to see if I get any undervolting... Nope, no problem there. I ran stress tests on my sd card on my computer - it was PERFECT. I was completely stumped... Until, after getting an Anker charging cable, and having a really good run with the new Armbian release - the system had been working for an hour without glitches, apt-get worked, I hav…

After several power restart sometimes it boots form microsd. also it ask for tags which has only one option "Solved". I had to tag this topic as solved in order to be able to submit it.

Hi! I've tried to compile the lwjgl lib on my opiplus2, but I'm stuck on ant compile_native_es. ant jars_es finished successfully. The error: [apply] /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lEGL Tried to install libegl1-mesa-dev package but it conflicts with the mali driver package. Is it possible to compile the lwjgl with opengl-es on the opi, or that's a dead idea? Thanks in advance!

Hi, In the recent builds (5.32) noticed an annoying ..feature. When shutting down from desktop, it asks for password, whereas that was not been asked in prior versions. Build image is OPiPC legacy Ubuntu desktop. Can we revert it back to not asking for password when shutdown/reboot from desktop?

hi there my orange pi one is very slow (8 fps) at encoding my capture card stream to h264 using HW Cedrus264 but other 720p mkv files are converted fast using HW (50 fps) then i tried to save the stream first to sd card (720p Mjpeg format) then encode it using HW , but here i still have 8fps , and cpu usage is 40% even when i used SW libx264 to encode , i still get 8fps and cpu 40% wich is weird is it possible to get real time 720p encoding ? , my capture card only output mjpeg armbian xenial desktop

Hello, I managed to run OPi as a media player using OpenELEC (works charmingly fast - much much better than on RasPi), bun on Armbian (legacy kernel - 3.4.113) something went not too good Firsty, I burn desktop Xenial image onto SD card, dropped into Orange, and everything worked fine besides sound via HDMI - even locally played MP3 files were stuttering, not mentioning Youtube in Chromium - CPU usage was in range of 30-40 percent. Sound in TV speakers were annoying- one second of music, long pause, repeated until I press stop button. So I gave up with Xenial, write a Jessie server image (also legacy kernel), installed XFCE with all recommende…

Hello, Im trying to use 4x4 membrane keypad with Orange Pi with PyA20 module. Im trying this code but this not working. Can you help me? Im using Armbian 5.25 on my OPi Lite.

Has anyone had any success with running a current/semi current OS and the NAS/RTC Enclosure/Hat from FriendlyElec. I was never impressed with the NAS/OpenMediaVault image that shipped with the board/hat. I have attempted to strip OMV out of the device and move the device forward with some success. The the Kernel is stuck at v4.14.52. But I would prefer to load a clean current OS and potentially use the correct overlays to enable the extra USB Ports, USB to SATA Bridge and RTC features. Question is does anyone have any information/guide to use a current version of Armbian/Community and the correct overlay file(s) to allow the the JMicron USB to SATA interface and …

I'm wanting to connect a Raspberry Pi Zero to my NanoPi Duo via USB Ethernet OTG. Has anyone gotten this to work? I've been following instructions posted at different sites (here's one - https://dev.webonomic.nl/connecting-to-a-raspberry-pi-zero-with-just-an-usb-cable-i) and I can get it to work via my desktop (with Debian) and a Raspberry Pi Zero and between RPI3 and RPI0, but can't seem to get it to work between NanoPi Duo and RPI0. Of course, I don't have a desktop on the NanoPi Duo, so everything has to be done via command line.

Talking about this -> https://github.com/igorpecovnik/lib/commit/cdc02f678620d6dba6c9e4ebc60884fc54c6dfc6 Dont know if anyone else noticed it, but after applying this I got about 10% lower CPU temp. (from 75 ro 67) in OPi/H3 under the same heavy workload with same performance! If there has not been any other temperature modificatioin done then this thumb2 change is definitively towards the right direction. Kudos guys!
