i've an orange pi one and i'm running armbian stretch (mainline) on it after issuing shutdown -h now as root, the green status indicator light goes off. but i noted that the ethernet leds remain on i leave the board powered on after shutdown but since i've already issued shutdown, i assumed that the cpu has stopped while i go on to work on my pc. some minutes later, i accidentally touch parts of the board and it is extremely hot, every part of the board i'd say it is probably well higher than 100 deg C, possibly a fire hazard do be careful about this as i think the behavior after shutdown is different from ubuntu xenial. for ubuntu x…

Hi, Lime2 A20 not even detecting mini usb ethernet, which was working perfectly fine on 3.xx. Manfu: Netgear USB: USB 2.0 Ethernet Adapter P/N: 322-10167-01 dmesg doesn't even list the device. Could board's port be damaged? I tired usb port with usb ethernet, it lists as: I'm using arbmian Ubuntu 18.04 with beta packages. Thanks

Wanted to share my very positive experience upgrading to the latest kernel. Followed the procedure using armbian-config and it worked out of the box on my OrangePi PC2. Left the system overnight running my standard tests and no issues. Even the problematic rtl8192 has no issue. There used to be a slight judder on the HDMI attached monitor that is gone now, perhaps due to the new MALI450 gpu modules. ___ ____ _ ____ ____ ____ / _ \| _ \(_) | _ \ / ___|___ \ | | | | |_) | | | |_) | | __) | | |_| | __/| | | __/| |___ / __/ \___/|_| |_| |_| \____|_____| W…

I am using a system I built from the trunk of Armbian for the pine64so. After booting up the mouse does not do "smooth mouse tracking". The movement of the mouse lags behind where it should be and has to "catch up" which takes several seconds. I consider it unusable doing this. This is Version "20.04.1 LTS (Focal Fossa)" Armbian 20.08.0-trunk Focal 5.7.17-sunxi64 #trunk Mon Aug 24 03:00:31 PDT 2020 aarch64

Hello everyone! I am designing a PCB and I need to know if there is a possibility to swap SPI0_CLK and SPI0_CS by changing this line from: pins = "PC0", "PC1", "PC2", "PC3"; to pins = "PC0", "PC1", "PC3", "PC2"; Currently I don't have a board to check it myself. Any ideas if this would even work? Thanks!

Friends I want to use A20 for our IP calling project which include Linphone. I confirmed from IGOR that there is no sound issues regarding audio driver while capturing voice from microphone or getting audio from headphone jack with his debian images. I only have to confirm that did anybody use LINPHONE on A20 debian or trusty system.

Hello Still I could not resolve network problems with orange pi plus. My configuration: Orange pi plus with heatsink, (image Armbian_5.05_Orangepiplus_Debian_jessie_3.4.110), external USB drive(partition ext4).

Hello, I liked to have fixed MAC address to my Orange Pi lite. At the moment, after every boot I have different one. First of all, is there "real" MAC for this board? If there is, how the see it? Then what would be correct way to set static MAC, U-boot/Scribt.bin/ifconfig...? I am running Armbian 5.14 Jessie server.

Help please! I have a bp2 which was bought almost a year ago, and use Armbian_5.14_Bananapi_Debian_jessie_3.4.112.raw as the image for couple of months. Today, I'm try to upgrade to the Armbian_5.14_Bananapi_Ubuntu_xenial_4.6.2.raw image, but the pi can't boot at all. What I do to prepare the sdcard with the following procedure: 1. remote the old partitation, and create a new fat32 partitation 2. dd bs=1M if=Armbian_5.14_Bananapi_Ubuntu_xenial_4.6.2.raw of=/dev/sdc; and sync 3. mark the written partitation as bootable with fdisk ps: I'm using fish shell, and the syntax for the dd command is valid So, what's wrong with my steps? How can I troubleshoot? …

First i have to say - if i knew what i am gonna go through, i would never buy this troubled hardware. So don't buy it too. But if you are already strayed like me, i decided to share my modifications, to make this inconsiderate piece of hardware useful. With this mods the device finally work as i need it to and i am fully happy with hardware part. Not so happy with software though, but that's another story. The main reason for me, to buy this router, except pc like capabilities, was SATA+SATA power connector. I used my old router with usb HDD, so it sounded good to have it in box and on native sata interface. Silly me, who would thought this will be the most troubled …

Hi guys, does anyone know how to put a system indicator which is dock-able on the armbian panel similar to the photo below? I have tried installing "Indicator Multiload", "Multiload-ng" and "System Load Indicator" but did not have much success to make them work properly in the latest build of armbian. I am using Orange Pi PC+. Hope someone could help. Thank you very much in advance!

I'd like to install the latest Armbian for Orange Pi PC, but want to remove GUI / desktop packages and use CLI only. I can't find any docs on how to create a tailored distro without GUI (and associated) packages. So I guess an alternative is to install a standard legacy distro, then trim out the GUI (and likely other) packages as desired. Any suggestions or documentation? Thx.

Hi, I try to play with Armbian Stretch mainline kernel 4.14.y on Orange Pi Zero and need for my idea sf funktion (SPI) and i2c in u-boot terminal. I've build mainline U-Boot but the files in /boot directory from armbian looks so "strange". There is any description how to replace the files or make changes. Thanks for help. P.S. Have a lot of experience with uC programming, less with Linux.

My development board is Orange Pi One, my development board installed armbian, but its Language Supports work is not normal, open for a while there will be flashback phenomenon! ! ! Help everyone to give a solution! ! !

Hi, As you can see in the armbianmonitor output, an error prevents from using the Spi with the Orange pi Zero board using a newly downloaded Armbian image. The output refers to the Armbian-Hirsute image (the last one tested) but the same error also occurs with the Buster and Focal images.

I'm testing different firmware versions for OrangePi 3 LTS a bit and I have to mention that version: Armbian_community_24.11.0-trunk.202_Orangepi3-lts_noble_current_6.6.44_gnome-kisak_desktop.img It has a flaw that can cause some trouble for beginners, i.e. after installing, the system automatically goes to the suspend option after 15 minutes 🙂 Disabling the suspend option completely helps, but it then prevents you from using the suspend option by clicking the button on the board 🙂 This is probably an error related to both battery and mains power supply. https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/gnome-suspends-after-15-minutes-of-user-inactivity-even-on-…

It seems 4.2 image was published, it seems file of kernel and dtb for cubietruck is not prepared, I think there is a reason? Best regards.

Hi guys, I received 5pcs of Orange Pi PC recently. I prepared system for all of them based on 3.4.xxx kernel Jessie sever image. Every board with only wifi connection I cannot reach on network. I have started investigating problem and these Realtek dongles are showing up like 2 devices wlan0 wlan1. Wpa supplicant driver crashed during boot and there is some strange message in startup log about usb. I am at work now so I cannot post it but on development version I tested this morning is that wifi dongle working and successfully connected to network. Sent from my Redmi Note 2 using Tapatalk

Hi and sorry for this questions. I buy this board, and now i need an working image with wifi. thanks for an answer.

Hi Forum, My CT with "Armbian_5.14_Cubietruck_Debian_jessie_4.6.2" image fails to complete apt-get upgrade and dist-upgrade. I haven't installed or removed any package, simply used the original image as it is. It starts the process, gets the packages, unpacks, starts setting them up and hangs at compiling the new headers. I left it working a full night but found with doing nothing. No cpu or disk activity was seen. Has anyone seen this before? Any idea? Thanks, T

Hi all I need a bit of assistance in installing OpenMediaVault on the Cubietruck. I'll admit I tried this a while back, so I'm coming back to this to try and use my Cubietruck as a mini NAS. Tried to install using the instructions over at the debian site, but after the install, the web interface showed lots of errors and it wouldn't work. Done lots of googling to try and find further information but I'll admit I'm a bit vexed. Does anyone have some idiot-proof instructions or a prebuilt image they could provide to a bit of a linux newby? thanks in advance -matt

Hey there. I ve been using armbian since a couple of years now. Today, out of the blue, I receive a 'user is not in the sudoers file '. I currently I'm using ARMBIAN Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS 4.8.4-sunxi. Obivuously, my user WAS a sudoer, actually, it is the only user. Any ideas would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

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?

I have read through the forum that Banana Pi Pro does not support directly powering drive over USB as it might be too much for this board. In my setup I use 2 A power adapter for my Banana Pi and an active HUB with power supply of 1 A, but with limit of 500 mA for HDD. Still, when connecting HUB to Banana Pi and HDD to HUB the same issue appears as when no HUB is used - the red diode turns off and Banana Pi looses power. I have already tried several HDDs (500 GB, 320 GB, 2 TB) - all with the same result. Anyone has some idea why this might be occuring despite powering drives from external source? Does Armbian have any software limitations that are creating this issue? …

Hy I'm currently trying to run a DS18B20 Temperature Sensor on the PA20 Port on my Neo Core 2. The w1_gpio und w1_therm modules are loaded but still I can't see the senors in the /sys/bus/w1/devices/ folder. (28-xxxx) Now I read in different threads to edit the FEX file in the /boot/ folder. So I would bee to first covert the script.bin to the script.fex. However I can't find any *.bin file in the /boot/ folder... So is the PA20 Port the correct 1Wire port? And how can I change this port to eg. GPIOG11 if I can't find the script.bin in the /boot/ folder? Andy

I got the mali stuff working on my H3 on my orange pi one to great success for use with the HTC Vive, but I'm trying to get it working on my H5 on my Orange Pi Zero Plus 2. I can't seem to get any work done as far as installing the mali modules/etc since I can't find the mali node in any of the dtb's. Also, because I am trying to use the normal armbian system, instead of installing my own sunxi-next kernel. I've switched to nightly, but can't figure out how to edit my own changes to the dts's that are built to add add the extra mali node (not that I have any idea where the mali450 is on the H5!). Any help would be greatly appreciated. …

Hi, I thought I'd share this in case anyone else is in the same situation as I. I've been trying to get my Orange Pi Lite to boot the latest (Aug 26 2021) images. I've tried Focal, Bullseye and Hirsute, and the Lite doesn't seem to care for any of them. "Armbian_21.02.1_Orangepilite_buster_current_5.10.12_desktop" from the Archive section does boot, as do the versions of Ubuntu and Debian from the Orange Pi website. Perhaps if I had a serial terminal connected I would be able to troubleshoot this, but I don't yet. I'm using a Sandisk Ultra A1 64Gb and I'm monitoring my power supply with my oscilloscope and haven't noticed any dips belo…

Good day, for my Orangepi PC+ I installed Armbian Ubuntu Jammy on a µSD card. Up until Armbian Ubuntu Strech I was able to use a PCM510A for sound output. The settings for this were easy. With all updated OS after Strech, I can't install the PCM. Unfortunately, the help that was published in the forum wasn't helpful or I couldn't take it over. On the eMMC I have installed Armbian5.59 Orangepipcplus Ubuntu xenial default 3.4.113 desktop. Because of the advanced age of this OS, there are no updates and upgrades. Luckily my internet radio still works. Can someone explain to me how I can install the PCM510A at Jammy? Kind regards hajupiko49

Hello, I'm working on a project which include a microcontroller and a NanoPi NEO Core running Armbian FriendlyCore distribution. The NanoPi is wired to the µcontroler ICSP which can reset the µcontroller for update purpose. The allwinner H3 datasheet state that the GPIOA6 (the one linked to ICSP) should start with HIGH-Z and no resistance pulling, it seems to do so but a few second after reboot it seems to go low as all other GPIO... resulting in an unwanting reset of the µcontroller. Is there a way to change this by setting the default state somewhere in the system, or should I have to use dts files or core compilation ? Any solution would be appreciated. …

Hello, I have got my Orange Pi PC+ reading a DS18B20, but it only gives 0.5 degree increments so I believe the resolution is set to 9 bit.

I am using an OPi+ 2e as an OMV box. Tonight I updated to 5.38 (4.14.15 kernel). After the update, the network connection drops between the router and the OPi at random intervals. At least once in a hour, sometimes within 10 minutes. Tried restarting the device and the router, to no avail.

Or is there any difference with h5? Do you know how many fps with which resolution does this camera have? Thanks.

I've experienced some issue on my OPI PC running 4.14 kernel - it disconnects eth after some hours of running. It's very annoying for me because I'm running Home Assistant automations on it and it's located in remote location (not in my home), so I have to drive 50 km to reset/reconnect it manually First I thought OPI just froze somehow (kernel panic or so). But later I've set up heartbeat trigger on red led and it's blinking, so OPI just disconnects from eth. When I unplugged cable for a minute and plugged it in back, networking was restored and I could reach via ssh. I'd like to make some workaround for now and the simplest thing seems to be write a script and pu…

Hello all, i wonder what is the status of the support for this touchcontroller.

But following this: https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=143581 i failed to make it work. May be i've done it the wrong way in armbianEnv.txt tho. Should i just insert theese line into this file? dtparam=i2c_arm=on dtparam=spi=on dtoverlay=ads7846,penirq=25,speed=10000,penirq_pull=2,xohms=150 According to dmesg log, module is loading, but nothing happens when i touch the screen. If not, should i instead us…

Hi!!! I am planning to buy Orange Pi PC but I saw that it has thermal issues because of overclocking/overvolting. My question is, Is armbian able to fix this problem??? ------Sorry...I am new to Single Board Computers----- Another thing, If Armbian isn't helpful about it, Does Orange Pi PC2 differ from it's predecessor??(I mean in thermal issues)... Thanks To You!!

Hi, I am having a strange problem with my Orangepi One, I previously had a python script which was run on login using .bashrc. The python script controlled VLC using the python bindings and hence I could not use crontab -e or rc.local as they are run in the backgound. Previously .bashrc worked without any issues however either I updated VLC or armbian and now it does not run after I login (even using an autologin). Strangely enough however if I login via SSH the script runs. To access it I use : sudo nano /home/user/.bashrc To run the script I append to the end of the file without making any adjustments: echo Runnin…

Initially I attempted upgrading the kernel from 6.1.26 to 6.1.33 using the build scripts to generate the newer kernel and headers. After rebooting I found that the system just appeared to hang around starting kernel. I did wait 10 minutes at first, thinking that perhaps their maybe some stuff going on in the background but after that conclude that it had most certainly crashed. The frustrating thing being that I did not appear to get any errors come through the debug port. At this point I assumed that perhaps something may have broke during the upgrade. My second attempt was using a completely fresh compiled image but unfortunately the result was still the same. …

Hi, i recently switched from an old Cubietruck Image (1.XX) to the latest available. Everything works fine but i cant find the trigger disk-activity anymore. Is it an bug or an feature? P.S.: i downloaded legacy_jessie_4.5 best regards Martin

Hi, I updated my image for BananPi from v5.00 (Wheezy) to the latest one (v5.16). Everything works fine, but if I run "apt-get upgrade" I get the message that the package "linux-whezzy-root-bananapi" is reserved (will not be installed). hardware-info says 6 packages to update, but I can't... Is this correct? Do I need this package to be on the latest version? What to do? Thanks. Steffen

I received my new Orange Pi Plus 2e and tried to set it up. I already got an Orange Pi PC2 running so it's not really something new to me. I used the latest Armbian images (desktop and server), flashed them to my SD card (with Etcher) and plugged it into the Pi. The green LED lights up and the device seems to be working. To this point it's the same as on my PC2. But after ~1min the red LED starts flashing twice over and over and nothing seems to be working. I get no signal over the HDMI out and the LED keeps flashing. I flashed the SD card three times to make sure it's not a flashing error. I tried the desktop image twice and the server image once. It always ends wit…

Hello all, I am very excited to install armbian debian jessie on my cubietruck ! I managed to get the Armbian_5.31_Cubietruck_Debian_jessie_next_4.11.5.img to an SD card, plugged it in, switched it on and everything went perfectly fine! Great! Now, I am trying to get this OS on the CT Nand. Sadly, the nand-sata-install doesn't work, returning the message : "There are no targets. Please check your drives". One very strange thing to me is the output of the /proc/partitions files that shows the following : major minor #blocks name 1 0 4096 ram0 1 1 4096 ram1 1 2 4096 ram2 …

Hello. I have an OPi +2e, with Ubuntu 16.04 and legacy kernel 3.4.113-sun8i. I tried to install Nextcloud via a Snap package, but got this error: error: cannot perform the following tasks: - Run configure hook of "nextcloud" snap if present (run hook "configure": cannot open mount namespace of the init process (O_PATH): No such file or directory) I googled for the message, and found out that there are some bits needed in the kernel, for Snap to work (see https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/nextcloud-snap-install/2674/3 ). Has anybody got this to work? Maybe with mainline kernel?

Hi guys I have an OPi1 with armbian 5.83 kernel 4.19 and I can't use otg. It seems powered but it doesn't recognize anything. I read this topic but I can't understand what to do. I just want to attach an external storage or a wifi dongle, to avoid using an usb hub. So I think I shoud use the otg as host for what I understood, right? thank you in advance for any help

Hi, i got a Pinebook and install the latest Armbian Image. All is working fine, only the sound output make problems. It isn't matter if i play a mp3 file or a play a YT Video. The sound is just strechted, drawned, like in slow motion. What can i do to solve this issue? Any ideas? Thank you for your help.

Hello. Somehow TX on UART 3 is not working. I connected USB-UART converter or the Banana Pi Zero M2 UART 3 Pins (as it shown here https://bananapi.gitbook.io/bpi-m2/en/bpi-m2_gpio_pin_define), set Baud rate, but I can't send anything from the SBC to PC. But I can send messages from PC to Banana pi. The converter is working properly(tested on Arduino). Do you have any ideas why?

Hi, I think I'm right in saying that this board once had standard support? I noticed it is now community support and the download page lists that there might be Wi-Fi issues. I have this link for previous builds: https://armbian.hosthatch.com/archive/orangepizero/archive/ Is there a way of knowing when standard support stopped and community support started etc? Thanks!

Hi, I have been using the Aruntu 2.0 desktop for CubieTruck on my sailboat mainly to run an OpenSource charting program called OpenCPN. On Aruntu I was able to compile from source and it worked well. Aruntu is no longer supported, so I am trying to switch to ArmBian. I can compile on ArmBian, but OpenGLES is not found, so the program defaults to software OpenGL which is very slow. How can I install OpenGLES support, in order to use the hardware video accelleration ? Thanks, JM.

I've tried both Armbian_5.00_Orangepi_Debian_jessie_4.4.1 and Armbian_5.00_Orangepi_Ubuntu_trusty_4.4.1_desktop (needs the Option "HWCursor" "off" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf). On both, after some minutes (hours?) of inactivity video id off and I 'cant turn it on. A restart fix the problem. Apart of the video, everything works just fine. I can login via SSH with no problem. Any clue?

Hi Few days ago i've upgraded by armbian to the newest release version 5.17? from 5.11. The problem is, that minidlna DLNA server is only visible for few minutes after the service is started. Later i need a restart the service to make it visible for the new clients. The strange is that when i don't exit/shutdown the client, after the server discovered, it stays visible and works perfectly. But i want to make it visible for a newly started client, i need to restart the service. It doesn't seem to be client problem, as the same happens with my samsung smart tv, and a windows pc with foobar 2000 dlna plugin. What's the problem? (it maybe a broadcasting problem)

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?

After I got my OPiPC+ to finally boot without HDMI, it wouldn't boot in my shop. I originally had it in the bedroom because that's where a convenient HDMI TV was AND that's where the U-Verse router is. In the shop, it went through an HP Procurve 2626 switch but would hang early in the boot process. Logged into the switch and found that most ports were set to "100FDpx". I changed the Pi port to "Auto100" and within seconds, the Pi was booting. Yay! Most people won't have such a problem using ordinary switches. A year ago, I needed more ports in the shop and got a great deal on this one locally. I didn't need 24 ports or the feature set but it was $40.00. T…

Hello, currently I am working on my Orange pi one system (Armbian Linux orangepione 3.4.113-sun8i #10 SMP PREEMPT Thu Feb 23 19:55:00 CET 2017 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux) to get my ILI9341-TFT display to work using the fb_ili9341 kernel module. I have read a lot of documentation and the display works (using the fb_ili9341 module) attached to my cubeitruck (also running armbian). I think that the problem is the GPIO- kernel module of the Orange PI one. These are the output messages in the syslog file after "modprobe gpio-sunxi": [ 343.417378] gpio_pin_1(7) gpio_request [ 343.417817] gpio_pin_2(8) gpio_request [ 343.4…

Hello everybody! How can I create access point with nmtui ? I spent some time playing with nmtui, and finally my nanopi got address something like 10.42.0.1. But it doesn't look normal, I can't create default gateway like 192.168.0.1 So, I couldn't see my hotspot from another device( android phone or other pc ) Maybe somebody resolved this problem?

When I run pygame for any significant length of time on legacy kernel it crashes with a kernel timeout error. I haven't been able to get past this, and from what I tell, it should be fixed in later kernels. So, I'm trying my hand with the mainline kernel, and I have two hurdles I haven't been able to pass yet. I'm using an Orange Pi Zero, hardware Ethernet, mainline distro, with a 2.4" SPI TFT LCD.

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. When I switched it from legacy kernel to lastest development kernel 4.11.x, the bluetooth card disappeared. 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?

Is there a way to set the OTG port on the Duo to host mode when not using it for power? This way a mini shield is not required for simple projects that power off the bus, but want to utilize the OTG port. It looks like it is possible, see my comments in thread below:

I just built the latest OPi Win image and WOW ... just about everything seems to be working. I'll test it over the coming days but AWESOME work guys. Wifi is back, eth0 is back and HDMI works !!!!!

When I ssh to my Banana Pi (I / A20) there is a delay of a few seconds till welcome screen / prompt.

Tried ssh -vvvv and a look at sshd logs, didn't found something indicating an error yet.

The essence of the problem is this. I work with Orange PC Plus microcomputers. I used to use the Armbian_5.25_Orangepipcplus_Ubuntu_xenial_default_3.4.113 distribution And so the device address was HW Address: fa: 20: 6d: b5: 65: bd But when installing new distros Armbian MAC becomes different. HW Address: 12: 81: ab: 1a: 39: 92 Permanennt HW Address: 12: 81: ab: 1a: 39: 92 I really need the MAC to be like before. And it did not change when reinstalling the OS. How to do it?
