Hi all, I'm looking to set the UART speed on my OPI PC Plus to 250,000 but I nothing I'm trying seems to work. I've read that it is technically possibly but can't seem to find any documentation on how to actually configure it. Can anyone help?

Is there a way to compile MAME for the OPI PC? Many thanks in advance!

Hi, I trying to record transport stream from USB DVB-T card, but I have some problem with dvbstream. Card work well with mumudvb. Currently I'm using Armbian Ubuntu Xenial on H3 (Orange Pi PC), unfortunately dvbstream (installed from repository) don't want to lock fronted to desire frequency, while dvbtune (0.5.ds-1) (installed from the same repository ) work fine. In this case I downloaded dvbtune (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/dvbtune_0.5.ds.orig.tar.gz) from source, but after compile not want to work. Do you have any idea what could be wrong? why dvbtune not work after compilation? Thank You.

opi+2e What is the best way to install a mainline kernel so that I can check out containers? I tried to install mainline kernel and ended up with a blank screen I then installed a nightly and it is just cli so I installed open box by ssh root@10.x.x.x9 apt-get install openbox obconf and now i get a blank screen also what is the best way to get a gui with mainline kernel? Thanks for your help Dave

Hi, I am newbie in Debian. I have an inquiry regarding this matter. I am having USB Wifi Dongle installed @ my OPi Zero H2+. It has built-in NIC (Eth0 & WLAN1) for the Debian Stretch. I am using this PI for the FlightAware purposes. 1. I connect to Eth0 from the beginning to access SSH and update all required updates. 2. I use nmtui for the USB Wireless connected to the Wireless AP. 3. Reboot the PI. 4. Install my PiAware 3.5.3 as per their instruction. 5. All Installed without any issue. I noticed that the MAC address of the USB Wireless Dongle is as follow:- wlx7c8bca1f3ad1: …

Hi all, I'm writing this post because I had an issue upgrading my lamobo-r1 from the previous version to the current one (Armbian_5.20_Lamobo-r1_Ubuntu_xenial_4.7.3). On reboot hwclock doesn't start so I get my clock set to epoch, wan doesn't go UP, postfix says "time stamp 2015-11-25 01:40:22 is 1448411826.350146139 s in the future", random says "uninitialized urandom read"... a total mess. As pointed out on some sites, looks like "/etc/init/hwclock.conf" has "start on starting mountall" so failing to mount could cause a failing in hwclock initialization. I also found on bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu that in recent versions with systemd, mountall became fussy about fi…

I have a Adafruit PN532 connected over UART to the orange Pi Zero on UART1(p8/10) i added the uart overlays to armbianEnv.txt and edited the libnfc.conf to include device.connstring = "pn532_uart:/dev/ttyS1" #device.connstring = "pn532_uart:/dev/ttyS1:9600". I commented included a fixed lower baudrate to test if it might have been the problem. To thest the theory i connected a arduino due to the same serial port to print somting to see if there was any communication but nothing went through the python code i used was simple : import serial ser = serial.Serial('/dev/ttyS1') print(ser.name) ser.write(b'hello') ser.close() the Arduino sc…

Hi, I bought a 3.5 inch RPi LCD display from here: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32965280840.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.2a474c4dxALiQy I connected the display straight to my Orange Pi zero board. The slot on the Orange Pi Zero is flipped compared to RPi so the LCD display goes outside the board. I guess that is the right way to connect. Anyway, when I power on the board I can see illuminated screen. The problem is that everything I have tried to configure the LCD was unsuccessful. I am trying with the Armbian image mentioned in this web site: http://www.orangepi.org/orangepibbsen/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=3773 (Armbian_5.35_Orangepizero_Ubuntu_x…

Hi, I got my OPiZ3 2GB model last week, but it seems to detect as 4GB sometimes. At first, I thought I got lucky and the seller shipped the 4GB model, but I realized it crashes under load when it do. and I have to restart multiple times to get it right. The issue shows up in htop and free, where it reports double the memory and swap. I’m using the Minimal/IOT image with Armbian Linux v6.6. Here's the output from armbianmonitor -u: https://paste.next.armbian.com/iguzunaved The MemTotal value switches between 4GB and 2GB. Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks!

Hi all After having used a lot the OPiPC2 with Armbian, I am now adding support for this board in openwrt. The first add board patch, has been merged recently in snapshot branch and works ok. For the first implementation I set the MUSB port role to host, but now my goal is to set it in OTG, making this port available for usb serial console, connecting a host PC to it. So, I built the needed support for g_serial in kernel and give a try, but I cannot make it work The host PC detects just nothing, as the OpiPC2 does not detect a USB host being connected to it Checking the dmesg I see something suspicious: [ 0.614423] sun4i-usb-phy…

Hello, I am trying to use BPI with legacy Armbian and Stella emulator with 16:10 monitor (using HDMI-DVI cable) I just dont know how to set proper 16:10 resolution. The resolution I set in armbian-config is 1680x1050, but it is different from resolution that Stella uses, when I launch it on the startup. It uses the resolution defined in FEX. So I checked https://linux-sunxi.org/Fex_Guide#disp_init_configuration and tried various resolutions, but dont know which of them is 16:10 and what is the exact resolution. For example 576p can mean anything. How can I find it out? Thank you very much.

EDIT: This seems to be a problem with the OS running on the Mikrotik router. See this thread for a work-around that "shouldn't make a difference". Hi! I've got some trouble with u-boot on an Orange Pi PC+ connecting to a Mikrotik router RB922UAGS-5HPacD, and I'm not sure where I should start digging. Here is what I have so far: Orange Pi PC+ with u-boot 2017.11-armbian installed on eMMC by running nand-sata-install. But instead of booting from eMMC, I'd like to fetch the kernel via tftp, so I modified the bootcmd accordingly.

Hi! I ended up here: My Banana M1 was working well, connecting to a monitor I was able to see it working. But after I removed the sd card (after turning the M1 off) and inserted into a Windows machine (it couldn't read the linux fs, did not format it) it won't start anymore. Tried with all the recommanded SD card software to test with the slowest method possible to detect errors on it, but no error on the sd card.

I configured my opi to work as a composite usb gadget (mouse and rndis). Everything works, but the actual refresh rate of the mouse was 250 Hz. I tried to configure bInterval, which is responsible for the device update frequency, this could only be done by rebuilding the kernel with bInterval changes in the high-speed descriptor structures from 4 to 1 in the file drivers/usb/gadget/function/f_hid.c. It had an effect. But the frequency only rose to 500 Hz. I tried to find what could limit this, I looked in drivers/usb/dwc2/gadget.c and also in composite.c but I couldn’t find anything. Now I don’t know where to look next or i missed sth.. drivers/usb/gadget/func…

Dear Igor, I compiled a kernel (Wheezy mainline) with your script, everything is perfect! There is only one thing, what I don't know how to do: I need to patch rtl28xxu.c before compiling or /even better/ if it possible to compile this module only and overwrite the .ko file at "/lib/modules/4.0.4-bananapi/kernel/.....folder". Could you help me please how can I do that? At line 1612 I need to change: - rc->interval = 400; to this: + rc->interval = 200; Thank you very much! Gyuri

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). This is for backlight driver (PH12 is connected to CON2 pin 7): bl_en_pins_a: bl_en@0 { allwinner,pins = "PH12"; allwinner,function = "gpio_out"; allwinner,drive = <SUN4I_PINCTRL_10_MA>; allwinner,pull = <SUN4I_PINCTRL_PULL_DOWN>; }; And this is for enable pin of voltage regulator (PH7 is connected to CON2 pin 6): lcd_power_pins_a: lcd_power@0 { allwinner,pins…

I just wanted to share some instructions on how to control all GPIO pins on the OrangePi Zero Plus 2 board. These instructions are meant for newbies but it can be extremely helpful if you are new to Armbian, OPI and GPIO. At least it would have been for me. There is a total of 17 different pins to control according to the schematic below. These pins are highlighted in blue numbers that indicate what GPIO port they are available at. Use these numbers in order to know that pins to control. Look for instructions further down. First off some basics: Activate a pin by exporting it. For example. In order to activate IO-0 run: echo "…

I'm not sure I even want BakeBit. I'm trying to use the GPIO in my NanoPi Neo2. Specifically I want to read a digital I/O pin on/off state. And if possible I'd like to read an analog voltage from the H5's built in ADC. Now that I've looked deeper into BakeBit, it seems like the entire purpose of BakeBit is to do GPIO with an Arduino, and read the information remotely on a RbPi/NanoPi or whatever ON the Arduino's GPIO pins. If that is really what BakeBit is, then BakeBit doesn't interest me. The H5 already has GPIO and an ADC. We just need to get that working. For interest's sake, here is the progress I made with BakeBit. ADC Python example in Bakebit h…

I am using Olimex Lime 2 Emmc Rev.k for a project. One of the Boards shuts down randomly. Its not a freeze or a sudden power down of the board. The board undergoes a complete shut down procedure. I checked the log entries in /var/log/syslog log file. There is a entry of board going to shut down but I couldn't find the reason for shut down. Is there a way to find out if the board got shut down because of the Power-button press, shutdown command from a SSH client, shutdown because of temperature or shutdown because of under voltage ? Is there a log file i can check to find the reason for shutdown?

Hi, I was trying to use OrangePi One to add a filter to my USB camera, so that I can apply some image processing to the original input image. The original project uses raspberrypi: https://github.com/likeablob/rpi-wfh-webcam It captures the image from a USB Camera, then applys some image processing on Raspberry Pi. Lastly, it creates a virtual camera that sends the output image to the PC. I would like to achieve the same effect using OrangePi One (Armbian), and the only problem left is to simulate a virtual camera using the USB Gadget. What I tried: $ sudo modprobe g_webcam musb-hdrc.4.aut…

Hi, im using an Orange Pi one with a camara.

Hi all, i am completely new to armbian and to be honest not yet completely convinced to change from bananian even that the time should have come. Until now, on my Bananapi M1, bananian was running without any problems. A few days ago, i tried to get familiar to armbian (debian stretch) for the first time on a test-SD-card. Now my problem: Since these tests, i am not able anymore to shutdown my running bananian-system to power off. The system seems to halt, but the power is not turned off and a few seconds later the Bananapi restarts. The problem remains even on a clear bananian1604-image. But: On the testSD-card under armbian the shutdown comm…

Hello, I've noticed that my Orange Pi Zero starts throttling at 65C and it will just freeze up until I give it a nice BJ so it cools down. Is there a setting that I can tweek to increase that?

There is some way to configure the hdmi hot plug in this OS? I found that raspiberry pi has this option. (https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/config-txt/video.md)

I'm not sure if I should pursue this here or if I should open a ticket through Debian Bugs. A recent update now causes mpd to segfault. mpd comes from the Debain armhf repository. I'm not sure how to determine if this is a hardware issue with my board somehow or if there is an interaction with a new kernel or if it's because the package updated the binary or a library. To make sure it wasn't something weird in my configuration I moved the conf file out of the way and re-ran mpd with the same result. If it helps, I can post an strace output of the issue. James

Hi there, I've been "playing" around various debian images for my lime2 and http://www.igorpecovnik.com/2014/11/18/olimex-lime-debian-sd-image/ seems to be the most achieved so far. Stable and everything. The only thing I miss is the "change_display.sh" tool so that I can easily configure my board to switch between the Olimex LCD and the HDMI screen. Would it be possible to add these tools in the next image ? I understand that it requires sunxi-tools and a few other things but it looks a bit complicated for me. Thanks for the feedback. Maxime

First of all I've got an OPI PC and I'm newbie with armbian and Linux in general I've managed to read DS18B20 temperature sensor and now I want to read Temp and Humidity from a SHT75 sensor which has the same specifications as the SHT1X family of Sensirion sensors. I've installed WiringPi library and I've been searching on google how to make SHT75 work with little success Any documentation or examples to see?? Any help would be appreciated Thanks

Hi all. I have a Banana Pi M1+ and I want to use it as a NAS using a SATA HDD (1TB). I read this article http://linux-sunxi.org/Cpufreq#Performance.2Ffunctionality_impacts and I want to change the scaling_max_freq. I installed the "Armbian_5.20_Bananapi_Debian_jessie_4.7.3" image. But the maximum frequencies available is 960000. I tried to compile the kernel by myself, changing the file sources\linux-vanilla\v4.9.5\arch\arm\boot\dts\sun7i-a20.dtsi as suggested in other posts. cpu0: cpu@0 { compatible = "arm,cortex-a7"; device_type = "cpu"; reg = <0>; clocks = <&cpu>; clock-laten…

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

Hello people, I'm using Armbian 5.30 - kernel 3.4.113 on a Nanopi NEO. and I'm relatively new to this stuff, so please bear with me. I successfully managed to install an LCD screen on SPI (ILI9341) using this command: sudo modprobe fbtft_device custom name=fb_ili9341 gpios=reset:1,dc:201,led:6 speed=16000000 rotate=90 bgr=1 So far so good, but the resolution of the screen is too little and can't load anything - for example Dosbox. I would want to replicate the trick that already exists on Raspberry/Raspbian, and that is to framebuffer a higher res screen (at least 640x480) on the tiny LCD's resolution of 320x240. This is the p…

Hi everyone, I'm new to Orange Pi Zero 2w and Armbian. I'm trying to use the image on the zero2w. Installing on the SD fits and works so far. Unfortunately, there is no image on the screen via the HDMI port. Could it be due to the image? The old OrangePi image with the 5.x kernel works so far. Do you have an idea? Best regards

Hi, After reading a post about NAS for allwinner, I need some advices: So far I have same performance on my raspberry pi b+ and my orangepi2e : 2 hard drives 2 To 2,5" usb on a powered hub. (approx 11 Mb/s max through AFP/nfs share). Gigabit does not seem to be the bottleneck on the pi since it does not impact my bit rates. My question is simple : can I have better performance if I make a RAID via btrfs ? Do I have to format my hard drives ? What is the best distro ? (I used armbian but does not seem very stable compared to the raspberry, what about ubuntu server, or raspbian ?) Thanks

Hello! i'm new user in linux, and i have one problem with my display on chinese tablet. I install armbian img from Olimex Teres A64 img. Armbian is started but not work the display. How is the possibility to change or set video output for display? the file script.bin i don't find. Thanks alot for response.

I've been trying out the latest version (4.3) of armbian on my Banana Pro and I noticed that the power button does no work as expected (apparently pressing it results in a hard reset). It looks like the OS can see the power button but I can't find a way to receive the button pressed event, the OS always halts first. Did anyone find a way to get the power and reset buttons to work?

Hello, questions about armbian for orangepi pc: - Will there be an Armbian Desktop 3.4.113 Jessie? - Is Ubuntu Xenial Legacy 3.4.113 Stable?

Hey, I have one Cubietruck newly installed with Xenial some weeks ago and one Cubie that had Trusty installed. Both Armbian. So today I made the dist-upgrade from Trusty to Xenial. After doing everything and reactivating the sources.list entries for Armbian and NodeJS (shoud be added to the FAQ!) i compared the output of apt-get update and ther eis a difference: Originally installed with Xenial (also InfluxDB installed, so should be only difference): Hit:1 http://ports.ubuntu.comxenial InRelease Hit:2 http://ports.ubuntu.comxenial-security InRelease Hit:3 http://apt.armbian.comxenial InRelease Get:4 http://ports.ubuntu.comxenial-updates InRelease [95…

sunxi-tools's seem to be missing from the image or have I messed the paths somehow ? (Armbian_5.24_Orangepipcplus_Ubuntu_xenial_dev_4.9.4.img) got it from here https://github.com/linux-sunxi/sunxi-tools but if this is not a mistake I have to add it to my automated installation process

Hey All, I moved my armbian OS from OPI H5 Zero Plus2 to OPI H5 Zero Plus (the one with the LAN), the WiFi is working perfectly but the LAN is not recognized, nor i can find any sign on dmesg or boot (but its there, i see it). ifconfig and ifconfig -a show only the "wlan0" and "lo". I am using ARMBIAN 5.64.181015 nightly Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS 4.14.76-sunxi64 with (armbian-config for Zero Plus 2) As it took me pretty much time to spin-up the OS, i would like to avoid burning a new OS. Is there a way to activate it or add/build it drivers? Many thanks

Hi! I successfully set up a headless web server using an Orange Pi PC, and Armbian Stretch (mainline kernel 4.14.y). I installed MySQL, PHP 7, and a custom web application built with Symfony. It is running better than I expected (faster than my local XAMPP). However, I was wondering if it could handle 35-45 visitors/users connected at the same time or not? Thanks!

Hi, I use armbian distribution on opi+2e , in order to operate the Jeedom home automation system. I occasionally encounter crashes of my opi, which becomes inaccessible in SSH. We are several users of this system to encounter the same problems. In logs, date is 1970, so we suspect a time synchronization problem. We use timedatectl for ntp synchronization, but it appears that rtc clock (fake clock) is not stable. Why? Any solution to keep rtc clock synchronous with ntp? Somes members of Jeedom community try with hardware RTC clock on I2C, and it seems working. But any existing other solutions? Thanks.

I installed the pyA20 library for controlling GPIO, but I can't get the internal pullup resistor to work anymore. I managed to get it working before, but after playing around with other things, it stopped working. I have a very simple circuit going on, with just a light switch and I'm trying to read the light switch using the internal pull-up resistor. I managed to get it working for a few days, but that's it. I gave up and decided to solder on my own 10K pull-up resistor from the input pin to 3.3V. To my surprise, the results were the same, the input pin floated. Everything works fine with an Arduino. This is all very strange and I hope someone can help me. I'm runn…

Hi, I want to use my cubietruck to play the video in HD and with spdif pass-trougth and I want use mopidy. with last armbian jessie desktop : with mplayer2 : pass-trougth is ok but video is too slow with mpv : I heard a very loud noise at the output of the amplifier is not DTS decoding and is transmitted as the pcm.--> it is a kernel problem: the driver sends a sound that is not recognized by the amplifier. the SPDIF sound format is limited to 24 bits video is OK. mopidy is OK with last armbian xenial: it work because mpv is very old with mplayer2 : pass-through and video is ok but kernel panic when I put the video paused--> kernel bug solved : …

hi there, just created the account to report what i experienced with my r1. unfortunately i had a bunch of changes w/o reboot so i only can estimate what caused the gap but im pretty sure it was at least the fact that i changed to the /etc/network/interfaces.r1router cfg before i rebooted from do-release-upgrade to xenial (install image has been the recent trusty of today). that was when i couldnt even ping my banana from any other box in my home net. have to say im with the german telekom which provides ipv6 in a dual stack manor. i saw on the pi console that it got the exspected ipv4, but also ipv6 addresses by telekom speedport dhcp. nevertheless from my other box it l…

Looking at the pinout table Pin 7 and PIN26, also the schematic, PWM is PA6 For this board, the overlay, is saying PWM is PA5, is it PA5? (sun50i-h5=pwm.dts) For SPI_1, CS_1 is PA10, but the table does not list a PA10, is that pin 26? (sun50i-h5-spi-add-cs1.dts)

Hi: I use orange pi pc to build a little chromium kiosk for showing some static information(like temperature). most things are fine. but there is a electronic scroll bar which is not running smooth. I check my current environment (armbian 22.08 with ubuntu 22.04) that I am running xorg with fbdev driver. I wonder if there is other things I can try for the hardware? I search the forum and I found there is "lima" driver, but I don't know if I am using it or not. I can see "lima" is loaded via "lsmod" but am I using it currently? I hope the orange pi pc can do better with newer driver. if not, what's the next armbian pi I should buy to get better chromium experienc…

Hi, this is not a complaint, just wondering if I am doing something wrong. When I try "any(Pine64,Sopine,Olinuxino-A64,Bananapi-M64)" A64 board with armbian 3.10.x kernel, desktop performance is quite satisfactory. Example: https://dl.armbian.com/_old/pine64/archive/Armbian_5.90_Pine64_Ubuntu_xenial_default_3.10.107_desktop.7z But when I build armbian in docker, both 5.4 and 5.6 kernels, I experience dramatic slowdown on desktop performance, even cursor is moving slowly. Here are armbian monitor logs: http://ix.io/2oW4 and http://ix.io/2oVY Here is how it looks on BPI-m64 as an exam…

Is there any way I can make use of the VDPAU implementation for A20 with the mainline kernel? Or will I have to use the old 3.4 kernel? Thanks Paul

So I have an application which requires 1Mbps UART and wasted a few days trying to debug my board thinking that was the issue (was working perfect at 115kps), so I decided to scope the UART TX from the orangpi, and of course that signal was not actually working at 1Mbps. Scope is saying that its running at 750Kbps. Did some research and it looks like there is some sort of UART scaling frequency set in the driver, which excludes certain bitrates from running (check here https://github.com/jernejsk/linux/blob/master/drivers/tty/serial/sunxi-uart.c#L356-L381 ) Did some further tests and 460Kbps works fine as well as 1.5Mbps (so its not an issue w…

Hello everyone! I am trying to set up a CSI camera for my Orange Pi win plus (A64). The camera is GC2035 and I have already seen it not easy with latest versions. New versions of Armbian have not CSI support and do not have drivers gc2035 and vfe_v4l2. I found you can somehow compile the driver but honestly.....I do not understand how. I know the process of ./compile.sh but no idea how to use this https://github.com/avafinger/gc2035 It says is for H3, probably not for A64 right? Looking for the oldest version of Armbian I could use, I found out on the archive this one: Armbian_5.59_Orangepiwin_Ubuntu_xenial_default_..&g…

Hi i did some comparison of NanoPi NEO Kernel 3.4 (Jessie) and kernel 4.4 (Stretch). - Looks like the temperature limit controlling of 4.4 is not working as good as 3.4 (on 4.4 Kernel the CPU reaches more than 85 °C!) - GPIO (wiringPi) has less performance (-4%) - SPI has better performance (10%) - CPU performance is ~6% better (nbench, maybe the newer compiler) - consumption is besser on Kernel 3.4, especially on halt state I did a fork for wiringpi Library to make it work on Armbian Jessie and Stretch https://github.com/mstroh76/WiringNP (so far only for NEO)
