Hi, I'm using a xenial system with Kernel 4.9.11-sunxi on LIME2 (actually it's an Olimex A20-SOM with external RTL8211 PHY) and trying to prevent the ethernet from coming up on boot. When turning the system on, the ethernet interface will assign a random MAC address; later on my script sets a proper MAC from an assigned range. Until then the eth0 interface must stay down to prevent the network from being spammed with bogous messages. This is because the ethernet interface chooses a random MAC address when the system boots up; later on a script sets the proper MAC address from an assigned range (along with IP and route configuration); The link must stay down un…

Hello together, I'm trying to connect an LVDS panel to my BananPro and would like to switching power on/of and backlight on/off throw a GPIO pin. So, first of all, I've added some lines to my DTS file (in &pio section).

Hello everyone, First of all, I'm sorry for my English. I'll do my best. Currently armbian is installed in the mmc (although I tried the same test with a sd memory). Now, with lscpu I can see that only cpu0 is enabled; 1-3 are off. When I try: sudo echo '1' | Sudo tee / sys / devices / system / cpu / cpu1 / online to activate cpu1, shell replies with: online: Permission denied I'm looking for options on root permissions or sysfs mount options; For now, I can not find a solution. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi, I have probably trivial question related to GPIO on Orange Pi Zero. So - I have a switch there connected ot 3.3V and then to GPIO (pin 12 on Zero). What I want to do is just to read GPIO state. When button pressed it goes to high state - normally. On RaspberryPi and Odroid C1 that works fine just using basic code with wiringpi2 or eventually wiringpi. So I tried the same on Zero compiling wiring for H3/H2. My code is basic in Python: import time import wiringpi import pyA20 as GPIO cykl = 1 wiringpi.wiringPiSetupGpio #or wiringPiSetup() wiringpi.pinMode(1,0) while cykl == 1 : do_call = wiringpi.digitalRead(1) if do_call: print 'pressed' time.s…

Hello everyone I just bought an orange pi zero (512mb) and installed ubuntu xenial ... I was able to connect to my wifi AP using nmtui, and now I am trying to "share" the internet with any device that is connected in eth0 ... I followed many tutorials and read several threads, but without success. My settings are defaults, I installed ubuntu xenial, just gave apt-get update and upgrade I would be grateful if anyone could help me ... thank you.

What is the max current that the Orange Pi Plus (or other boards) can output for USB devices? Assume there is a high quality 3A power supply. For example, on Raspberry Pi it is documented here: https://www.raspberrypi.org/help/faqs/#powerReqs Note that the output amount is configurable on RPi (you must manually enable 1.2A output) - is there anything similar for OPi? Here is what needs to be changed in the boot config on an Rpi to change the power from 6mA to 1.2A: http://elinux.org/RPiconfig#USB_Power Thank you!

Hey, I was wondering if anyone came across the board layout files. If eagle cad files were available that would be great! I'm assuming that they dont exist.. Or has someone designed a hat or shield for the OPi0? I want to design one and was hoping someone else beat me to it. If not i'll just have to measure it out and make it. I dont want to reinvent the wheel so that would be cool Thanks

Hello, today I try to recompile armbian and produce some image which can be fited into nor flash. I would like to fit uboot, dtb and kernel into Winbond W25Q128FVSSIG and rootfs into sdcard. So I found some instruction in which I need to modify first kernel and dts (ref. http://linux-sunxi.org/Xunlong_Orange_Pi_Zerochapter SPI NOR flash). For Armbian it is quit difficult, when I issue ./compile.sh than everything regarding to Uboot is cleared. First what I need to do is modify sun8i-h3-orangepi-one.dts with following content &spi0 { status = "okay"; flash: m25p80@0 { #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <1>; …

Hi... Sorry if this has already answered... I want to know how activate the I2S interface in the latest vanilla image... In the past using the legacy kernel only need to change a few thing in the fex file... Thanks in advance...

I've had success with Armbian runing on Orange Pi One and pcDuino2. I'm using the legacy kernels on these boards. Today I've got a pcDuino3B - similar to pcDuino3 except it has GB ethernet from the pcDuino3 nano. I tried legacy kernels for both the 3 and the 3 nano. I see high cpu load ~35% from one of the kworker processes. Then I tried the mainline kernels from the 3 and the 3 nano. No cpu load problems but the GbE does not appear to be configured in the 3 image. 3 nano works on both ethernet and wifi so I'm wondering whether to stick with this one and see if there are any other differences. I don't have a build environment set up and no experience with kernel debug…

Hello, I have a special Ir Receiver which works on a raspberry but not on nano pi neo air... input levels are different ? I can receive signal (I have pulses and spaces) but datas are corrupted and I must transmit longer to have a proper result... Is it possible to change Lirc input pin ?

Hello, I have just been following the instructions set up here to make an access point out of my orange pi one which has the 4.9.4-sun8i dev kernels (they are not the problem). https://learn.adafruit.com/setting-up-a-raspberry-pi-as-a-wifi-access-point/install-software When I begin the first test I get an error that is spit out by the interface I guess?

Hello everyone, I have an Orange Pi Lite and I have a problem when I try to shut down the system, I receive stack errors. I've recorded a video to see if it detects what the problem is, I'm new to armbian and linux in general. Except for a bug that occurs in the partition several times (on two different microsd cards), I do not know what the problem might be, I read that it could be a kernel bug, but I'm not sure. I put the video link to see if anyone can help me, it is slowed down so it can be read. If I do not try to turn it off, everything works fine, but when I try to turn it off, it gives the errors and restarts as seen in the video. ​Thanks in advance. …

I am running ubuntu xenial (legacy version) on my orangepi zero 256Mb version and using it as a web server with light torrenting. The SoC temperature reading in armbianmonitor reaches above 80C easily. When i log in via ssh after boot the temperature reads usually 60-65 C and normal operations easily cross 70C. This is my first SBC so I am not sure if this is normal? Can anyone tell me if these temperature readings are notmal or do i need heatsink to cool down my system? Thanks in advance.

I upgraded some day ago to a new release and I experiencing increase cpu heat. My OPI Zero is running 24/7 and most of the time (99%) it has nothing to do. So its in idle.

I would like to remove wifi from my Zero... dont need it. The device will not be used network connected. It will serve as an OTG usb dongle only. How to remove or reinstall all wifi related components? It would be also great how to enable / disable ethernet connection from command line... is it just nmcli network off / nmcli network on or is there a more efficient way to do it?

Hi, I'm fairly new to SBCs and Linux and try to get RS485 working on a NanoPi NEO running Armbian (Legacy 3.4.113). I build a custom shield for the NanoPi Neo with a MAX3485 taht is connected to the UART2 (TX,RX,RTS) but so far only transmission works. This is because the RTS pin which I planned to use for toggling the direction pins is always high. I tried to use ioctrl to have it been toggled automatically, but had no success so far. I'm tried to figure out whats the problem and I believe that the configuration of the UART2 does not include the RTS signal: cat /proc/tty/driver/uart |head -8 serinfo:1.0 driver revision: 0: uart:SUNXI mmio:0x01C28000 irq:…

Hey there So I was planning on using the OPZero on a robot that I had already made, which took use of SPIdev, and it was doing calls to the spidev driver in C. Now I noticed that the OPZero has 2 SPI channels, one for the NOR flash (Which isnt populated) on the back and another that goes to the GPIO headers on the device. Now I ran my script, and turns out that /dev/spidev0.0 is actually writing SPI commands to the rear SPI channel. This is apparenly SPI0 according to the schematics. Now following the schematics again, I want to access SPI1, which currently does not exist as a spidev file. I tried "modprobe spidev" to bring up the extra interface, but sadl…

Hi all, I have prepared a c++ app on a VM Ubuntu desktop and need to transfer it and test it on Cubietruck Cubieboard3. Apart from the default code I also link my c++ app to extrenal shared libraries , like poco and boost. Since I'm quite new on embedded systems and boards especially, if I choose to boot the Ubuntu desktop version armbian is offering, do I have to build these external libraries from scratch? Thanks in advance

I would like to remove "everything" from the installation, which I don’t need, with the goal to minimize the footprint. I installed tasksel and its show a lot of packages on disk... so my question is what can be removed to keep a basic ubuntu server without a desktop interface and with some most used functions and files. I tried to remove some of them, like… ubuntustudio-videoubuntustudio-photography ubuntustudio-graphics mail-server ubuntu-gnome-desktop ... I can imagine to remove all CD installation and images as well... …but my problem is that if I for example remove “ubuntu-gnome-desktopâ€, the OPI Zero is not answering on ssh request any more. So, for me…

Hello, Recently I bought my first orange pi one and I downloaded the xenial desktop specifically so that I could have an xserver preinstalled to what I wanted to transform into an access point. I had realized that all realtek wifi dongles would cause a kernel crash once you try to connect to an access point with them. I had followed instructions to rebuild the orange pi with the dev packages that are found on its download page, and it worked the first time, allowing me to continue with my work. Long story short I ended up re-imaging the sd card and now I can't get the dev version to work again. It won't boot once I install the packages. I am wondering if somet…

Hello all, I'm going to preface by saying that I am not experienced with Pi, Pi clones, or linux, but I know how to google stuff until my fingers bleed and can navigate around a terminal window well enough.

Thank you for reading this: Mission:upgrade a remote cubietruck without bricking it over ssh from WAN. QuestionIs there some kind of tutorial on how to upgrade from 14.04 LTS to 16.04 LTS? I didn't find it yet. By the way the desktop version is quite stable. Great job! Question2What I am looking for though is, how do I remove the x-server? I thought I could use the raspberry pi teamviewer version, but that didn't work out due to some protocol problem. Therefor I could use all the RAM for docker/apache/mariadb Thank you! With kind regards Hans

I'm currently running ARMBIAN Debian GNU/Linux 8 (jessie) 4.9.7-sunxi on my CT.

Hi, Trying to setup audio mux on orange pi boards, for now trying to stick on orange pi ZERO & ONE ( both of them ). By mux, meaning will try to setup some peers which can play locally or stream sources they have. Let's say all peers have - x2 line in - x1 mic - x1 line out Want to dynamically connect any source to any output on any peer. For example after choosing, you can able to play line in of peer 1 on peer 1 output OR peer1 line in on peer 2 output And I think CD quality is more than enough. Trying to find any tools that will help to make this. Two solution points needed: - hardware: ?? as far as I can find, there is "line…

when i triaing change monitor in NANO PI M1 from HDMI to DVI ( H3disp 1080p ), then i cannot start system in a DVI monitor. After changed HDMI monitor is also blocked. Then you have to delete into another computer in sd card your scirpt bin file and rename script.bin.back to script.bin to return to HDMI monitor. DVI does not work at all . maybe it is producer error not software.

Hi everyone, I have an orange pi pc+ (also a orange pi one) and i'm trying to use one of them as a wifi-wifi router. I've been able to do it work several times, with different wifi dongles, armbian versions (both debian and ubuntu legacy and mainline) but I always get low wifi speed in the AP interface. The problem is that the AP network through the orange pi always gives me around 30-10% of the full internet connection. That is, if my connection gives me 1.5mb/s, the client interface at orange pi gives around 1.5mb/s but at the AP interface is only 200-500 kb/s. I'm going to show here the last configuration I've tried. I would like to achieve a "decent" wifi…

Hello, I am using Armbian nightly legacy Jessie 3.4.113 build and it seems Mali drivers are included. Please, How should I set values in boot.cmd and boot.scr to mali HW acceleration work properly? I checked this site http://linux-sunxi.org/KernelArgumentsand tried to place something like "sunxi_ve_mem_reserve=64 cma=96 sunxi_g2d_mem_reserve=64 sunxi_fb_mem_reserve=32" to this file on setenv line but armbian fails to boot. I would like to use HW acceleration in VLC. Thank you.

The old 0.14.0 version doesn't work well with subtitles, ending up with subtitles drawing on top of each others, when the text is moving fast. Is there any build I could download and install? Or some other workaround? Edit: Kodi draws the subtitles correctly, but it has pretty awful screen tearing. Using black bloxes instead of just some outline on the subtitles does work, but it's not an acceptable fix to me. So, it would be great it was possible to use whatever kodi uses to draw the subtitles, but then use mpv to draw the video.

Hey Guys, IM finally trying to make use of my OPi0 and Im planning on creating a daughterboard/hat/shield similar to the expansion board they sell, but with only the bits i need. One thing i'm wondering is if its possible to feed the power (5v) via the pins on the expansion board and not using the OTG input. Im trying to keep it as clean as possible and dont want to have the OTG connection for power. Is the regulator only on the OTG? Last I checked, my power supply gives out a steady 5.3v feed @5amps (driving some power hungry pixels). In regards to sound. I wanted to use an LMA386 amp on my custom daughter board to boost the output for a 4 ohm speaker i'…

With every upgrade I struggle with a "changed to default" login welcome message and have to do my modifications again. Therefore I would like to explain my changes and hope you can integrate them in the default version...: Your welcome message prints the $BOARD_NAME as ASCII art. Probably you have dozens of boards and can distinguish them in this way. So after login-in you directly see which board it is. I have only one type of "boards" (Cubietruck) and distinguish them by their hostname. So I have to replace "$BOARD_NAME" with "$(hostname -s)" in /etc/update-motd.d/10-header to identify my boards. What do you think about a change in that direction?

Hello, I am experimenting with Orange Pi Zero and so I set different resolution with h3disp. Now TV connection via pin 9 is not working anymore. Any idea please how to reset to default setting? I tried many settings with SSH but it did not reenable my pin 9. Help is much appreciated.

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…

Hi, I used to run a RPi3 as a VPN and DNS-Server (PiHole) and it worked like a charm. Since the RPI3 is a bit oversized for this work I bought a NanoPi Neo 512MB and installed armbian Ubuntu 4.9.x, but I have some issues with it: - eth0 is only connected by 100/half duplex. I can set it manually to full duplex with autoneg off, but after a few secondes it falls back to 10(!) half duplex. with autoneg on it comes back to 100 half duplex (the amber led is off; cable and switch are ok) - the MAC-Adress is changing every reboot. I have to fix it manually - I can set up Pihole to use the Nanopi as a DNS-Server and it works well in the LAN, until I connect over openVP…

I have problem with transmission-deamon on my CubieA20. It not starting listening on boot. Only after service restart. Met same problem on Raspberry-3 but it cured by enabling "boot to wait until a network connection is established" option. I checked the raspi-config and taken same measures on my A20 ("ExecStart=/sbin/dhcpcd -q -w" etc). Not succeeded! Anyone have alternate methods? There's some more applications that not starting on boot if connection not active, Blynk-client for ex. PS: I use legacy kernel on 5.25 Armbian. UPD: Problem resolved by editing /etc/network/interfaces.

Hi all, today I tried ubuntu xenial (dev) with kernel 4.9.4 for OrangePi Plus2. seems to work fine, but the screen resolution is 3840x2160. That is cool but a smaller resulution would be better. I tryed to change the screen settings over Settings -> Display, but it is not possible to change the values there. I also tried it with: sudo h3disp, but it is not installed on my system. What is the best way to change the screen res?

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

Hello ! I have a pcduino 3 with 4gb nand memory. I tried to install armbian server 5.25 with Kernel Legacy 3.4.113. The SDcard boot works well but when i try to boot from nand just after nand-sata-install, nothing happens. I tried to install LXDE 14 nand from official pcduino repositories and boot works so the memrory is not corrupted. Thanks in advance ! Guillaume UPDATE : I found this solution to my problem. Thanks to walkin-corpse who had the same bug in the meantime. https://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic/3481-cubieboard-a20-2012-version-does-not-boot-with-armbian-525/?p=25060

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?

I have Armbian_4.5_Cubietruck_Debian_jessie_3.4.109 running from NAND on my Cubietruck. Boot, reboot and shutdown are very slow. I assume that this is caused by this bug: As I do not need WIFI and Bluetooth ... Is it possible to remove WIFI and Bluetooth completely? How? Would that help with the mentioned problem? Is it ensured, that the WIFI and Bluetooth hardware modules are shutoff / power save when disabled? P.S.: great work Igor

Hello, My Orange Pi Zero was working during a few days. However after a few days it stopped working. I tried to install a fresh armbian (and I also tried lot's of different distribution on several SD cards), and all of them are unable to boot. Today, I tried to plug an UART cable (USB <-> Serial) during boot in order to see what happened... And here is what I got : U-Boot SPL 2016.09.01-armbian (Nov 14 2016 - 08:40:41) DRAM: 0 MiB ### ERROR ### Please RESET the board ### (The date of armbian of course depends on the version I'm running). The RESET seems to refer to a power cycle reset (which I obviously do each time I try to restart), so I dont see what I …

Hi, tried to find files for motd but /etc/motd is empty. Can you tell me where to configure motd? Thanks

I just ordered a couple of Orange Pi Zero systems to use in small IoT projects. Reading the forum I see the wireless for Orange Pi Zero might have issues. But some of the posts wanted to use it as an AP. That's not my case, I'll test them when they get here, but just how bad is it? I will not have a heavy load, but I would like something stable. When push comes to shove should I plan on using an Ethernet cable rather than the wifi?

What's the current status of the mainline kernel? What kind of practical restrictions are there? I've seen on the Sunxi wiki that Ethernet is still WIP. So no Ethernet? I use my Orangepi PC as a "NAS/media server/download server".

Thanks for your effort on this project. Much appreciated. I was able to follow this tutorial (10 minutes, 24 seconds in) on the Debian image to get the TV out working. I'm building scripts to modify the networking between a number of modes - super helpful to get a console access when I break something and lose all networking access. Is there support for this on the Ubuntu side? The simple "add 'tv' to the bottom of "/etc/modules" doesn't do anything. Please advise. Thanks!

I'd like to use Orange Pi PC as a HID keyboard USB gadget/USB device. There is a tutorial on link here but it makes Orange Pi into a serial device. I want a HID device (keyboard).

After receiving several Orange Pi Zeros and a Pi+2E, I have been experiment on different ways to connect them using the g_ether and usbnet modules, and configuring the Zero OTG port as slave (mode 2). My last attempt was to use the Pi+2E as a data concentrator, connecting three different OPIZ on the independent USB channels, creating ethernet over USB links ... this have been my week's nightmare. By now these are my findings (could change with more information at hand). 1) The Pi+2E enables 4 different usb ports. The usb0 is the OTG microUSB port, and the usb1, usb2 and usb3 are the other exposed type A USB ports. 2) The usb0 has a particular MAC Address and…

Hello everyone, This is my first post, but i've been using armbian for almost one year (https://twitter.com/logicite/status/682267764384501760), so : thank you for your work ! I use armbian ubuntu on Olimex A20 lime 2, and on LeMaker Banana Pro. So far no difficulty, or i was able to find the answers on the forum. This time, i can't find anything, so i'm asking for your help : A few months ago i was able to use the onboard sound card on the BananaPro. It was showing up in alsamixer and in aplay -l. The sound was not good so i used a USB sound card instead. Today, i can't find this onboard sound card any longer. I suspect this is due to some update in …

Hi I need to set static IP in eth0 and wlan0 in my OPi Zero using ARMBIAN Jessie. Googling around, I read a lot of controversial options, like edit /etc/network/interfaces and use nmtui, but, I couldn't set BOTH eth0 and wlan0 to a static IP. If I do it for eth0, wlan0 doesn't work and vice-versa. One guy said that after Debian Jessie version (https://nebulousthinking.wordpress.com/2016/02/25/setting-a-static-ip-for-raspbian-jessie-in-2016/), some things changed to set up static IP. Now, from Jessie, we need to edit /etc/ dhcpcd.conf, but, where is it ( dhcpcd.conf )? Can someone instruct me about how to set static IP, please? Sergio

Hi folks, I'm trying to figure out what the current status of USB OTG support is, as applies to the Orange Pi Zero.
