Hi, I'm here again, the quarantine is almost over (sadly 'cause here in italy we are a bunch of a****le) and I finally get rid of my kodi 17 on retrorangepi 4.2 (old) that give me a lot of problems (with wifi connection lost, scraper that didn't update, and freeze, not for sure a problem with retrorangepi itself). so... I have something in my mind now that I'm back to home with my new FTTH internet connection. I want to setup an armbian image with or withot desktop for octoprint Armbian with 5.4 kernel (xfce debian) is really slow and temperature (with heatsink) don't go under 60°C on idle, with retrorangepi based on Debian Jessie, temps go…

hi there,the 4.19 kernel on win plus is great to play with but it really takes hours to boot. it stucks at starting kernel step. any advice?

I've not tried any kind of GUI yet but I can get a console prompt on the TV & see the kernel boot messages Now for more testing, testing & testing .... TB

Hello! Brand new user here to the NanoPi Neo and even the forum. I'm planning to use a NanoPi Neo as hardware "interactor", the main idea is to connect a NanoPi Neo to a smartphone (Android or iOS), power the board from the USB cable and work in Host Mode to interact with de smartphone with libimobiledevice or adb. OTG does not support charging + data at the same time without a "special" OTG adapter. What I want to do is power the NanoPi by using the smartphone and even interact with it in host mode, like a regular computer will do, in simple terms, using a single cable, but getting power from it. Is this possible using NanoPi microUSB+OT…

I was able to write to a Samsung sd card the image for my orange Pi lite. The overscan is bad on my TV but I got past initial setup. Once it boots to the desktop there is no response from the mouse and I thought the keyboard. No keyboard shortcuts work. But I was able to drop to terminal and type. What could be going on? I've tried different cards, keyboards, and mice. Edit: I've tried different power supplies too!

Hello guys, there is a question, is there an EDK2(tianocore) for orange pi 3 lts? If yes, how can it be compiled? Maybe there are projects to run uefi operating systems for arm on orange pi.

Hi all. I have been doing some interesting reading here. Thank you that you started this project. I saw it already in 2014 I think when I bought my Pcduino 3 Version A but I wasn't sure back there if this project was for real. The reason why I bought Pcduino3 in the first place was an idea of a media client/server so I could hook it up to my TV and watch youtube and or Netflix and maybe have a little ftpserver on it so I can transfer my favorite tv shows to it (I currently live in germany but I do not speak/understand it fluently and all tv channels here and in german ) and watch them comfortably on the sofa (my back hurts if I sit too long by PC), and a smal…

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'…

Hello dear commnuity have installed armbian banana pi m2 kernel 4.19 on a BPI How to get the graphical configuration screen!?

I successfully installed Armbian 20.08.1 to eMMC, and it works fine. Now, I want to try Raspberry OS (I'm told that it works?) but regardless of what I put on my uSD card (I've tried several OS's) - when rebooting the OPi 3+, it always comes up with the eMMC Armbian load. In researching this, I read over and over that the uSD card always has priority over the eMMC. Is this still true with the current version of Armbian? What could explain the behavior I'm seeing? I tried the Install to/update booth loader, both option, with no change in behavior. Any thoughts?

I installed ARMBIAN in a cubieboard2, then i insert a microSD card with 3 partitions and 1 of them cant be accesed directly from desktop... i receive the msg PERMISION DENIED. please i need help in that partition there is a program that i need to transfer to ARMBIAN to make my ARMIGA SYSTEM live again. How can i access it ?

the new version of Armbian (5.83) Does not boot from sd card I tried to install 5.69 it's work normally. I tried to all the sd card formatter rufus and wın32 disk imager and different sd cards but no way new version does not work anyway. when i burn to 5.69 it boot normally. I guess you have to control the package whıch you upladed for opi pc+ thanks

Hi everyone, I am using an OrangePi Zero with AllWinner H2+ and I need to catch UART1_TX and UART1_RX interrupts. I have been reading the Allwinner H2+ datasheet (http://wiki.friendlyarm.com/wiki/images/0/08/Allwinner_H2%2B_Datasheet_V1.2.pdf) and I have seen that UART1 interrupts are mented on PG_EINT (section 4.22.2.46) and UART Register Description (section 8.3.5) - I have no clear which registers I should configure to detect the UART1 interrupts, and how to do it. For example, for detecting Received data available, I think I should: - Enable the ERBFI bit in UART_IER register - Check IID field in UART_IIR to de…

Hi, today I want to tell you, that I am very much upset about the result of the latest ARMBIAN Update! After updating I figured out, that the latest update erased my bash.bashrc.custom, which took me a long time to set it right! Unfortunate I did not have a backup! I am very much upset, that an armbian update erases configuration files WITHOUT any further notices!!! Regards, Ireng

Hello! I'm planning to try using kodi with my cubietruck. Should I use desktop ubuntu image, or can I customize the legacy debian one? One those things is returning memory reservations. If I get it right I should edit uboot config and add: sunxi_ve_mem_reserve=128M cma=128+16M Am I correct? Are there any other changes I should change in default config to run kodi smoothly? I'd go with debian if it's possible, but I can switch to ubuntu, if there's alot to change in 3.4 debian image.

I have just flashed the Armbian Stretch mainline kernel 4.14.y. While booting, connected to a HDMI TV/monitor, I can see the start-up text lines initializing various things and at some point (I think it is "starting kernel"), the display gets heavily corrupted with horizontal lines then it switches to a blank screen. The TV displays that it's a 1080p60Hz mode (should be compatible with the display). Any ideas? https://youtu.be/n4-TSFzBgO4

Hi, After the new update, the BLUE LED on the nanoPI M1 is not being used anymore. Cheers,

I am running Ubuntu Xenial (legacy version) on my Orangepi zero 256 Mb version and using it as a web server with light torrenting. The SoC temperature reading in armbianmonitor reaches above 80 C easily. When i log in via ssh after boot the temperature reads usually 60-65 C and normal operations easily cross 70 C. This is my first SBC so I am not sure if this is normal? Can anyone tell me if these temperature readings are fine and should I do something about it?

Hi, We use different armbian images for our different orangepis and every time we change a board model we only point script.bin shortcut to .bin file of the new board and it always work without changing the whole image. But we could not make Opi zero work with this technic. Opi zero does not work when we copied orangepizero.bin from opi zero image to /boot/bin folder and point script.bin to than file. (as older armbian images do not have orangepizero.bin we had to copy from new opi zero image.) We tried to boot from opi lite image but wifi and usb (and probably other things as well) does not work. As our image is custom made and we have to change a lot of things is…

Hello, I hope someone might help me on this. Is anyone here using the ENC28J60 Ethernet port on an Orange Pi Zero 2W or Orange Pi Zero 3? If so, can you please share the file .dts (or .dtbo) that is working for you? I've generated a .dtbo using the file in https://github.com/armbian/sunxi-DT-overlays/blob/master/examples/spi-enc28j60.dts, with: dtc -I dts -O dtb -o /boot/overlay-user/spi-enc28j60.dtbo spi-enc28j60.dts but still it doesn't work. It says "chip not found". I'm using the same cable pinout as in my Raspberry Pi Zero 2W and it works successfully, but not in the Orange Pi Zero 2W. Any idea?

Hello everybody, I would like to know what needs to be done to make this work. I simply copied over the sources of the r3p2 mali module into the 3.4.113 Armbian kernel source and the module wos built without error. Then I recompiled libump, libmali and fbturbu. But when I tried to put the gpu to work I got an error message: eglgetdisplay() returned no display. Since there was nothing helpful in the logs I coudn't investigate further where the problem lies. Has anybody had success with the newer mali drivers? Any hints are very welcome...THANKS! Paul

Hi all, I am new to armbian, it is a wonderful project. I just have a nanopi neo core board, fellow the guide doc, it can be boot from the SD card, but the board has internal 8GB emmc. how can I install the armbian into it, so it can boot from emmc without using SD card? Thanks!

I use Armbian_4.3_wheezy on SD video with 1280x720p resolution. When I transfer to NAND, only with the resolution of 1028x1024p and can not adjust the resolution to 1280x720p. Already changed the script.bin file (via fex2bin), the uEnv.txt file (disp.screen0_output_mode = EDID: 1280x720p60) and not worked. How can I change the resolution to 1280x720p?

Hi everybody, I recently purchased a Orange Pi Zero since I needed a tiny board, and after setting it up I noticed that the resolution didn't fit properly in a portable TV I was using. Doing some research (I'm a complete newbie), I found the command "h3disp" ot change resolution on Armbian for H2+ and H3 boards, so I gave it a try. Now it's completely black and no signal on AV IN. Thanks to a post in this site, I noticed that every command in h3disp was for HDMI outputs and that doesn't fit Orange Pi Zero since it supports PAL and NTSC only, so now after changing between 480i and 576i doesn't seem to be showing anything at all. I was wondering if I could restore…

I am using orangepi+ and The latest Armbian Debian Version was installed in emmc. and i have some BLE Module. but, when i add my module to gpio pin, i can see I/O Error..but it's not always, somtimes there is no error. and when i boot orangepi-plus, it is PULL-UP state. i don't know this reason, how can change default gpio pull-up or pull-down state? or you have some idea? thanks

Hi, I had until yesterday an Armbian version from a year ago on the board, until then I never had problems with my network (WiFi). Yesterday I had then made an apt update + upgrate. After that, however, I suddenly had the problem that some access points are no longer found. This is so that my access point (Fritzbox), my mobile hotspot from smartphone (Samsung) and a network of a neighbor is no longer found. Other access points are still found, so there are still WiFi access points available but I can no longer find mine. Now I have installed the latest version today and still the same problem. Manual entry unfortunately brings nothing because the connecti…

Because I'm a glutton for punishment, I decided to test a bunch of PCDuino3 images. Hopefully this will be helpful for someone. Feel free to double-check my work. 3.X kernels work perfect. 4.11-4.14 no HDMI Audio 4.19-5.8 there's a bug where the console won't show up if you connect a high resolution screen. It complains about not enough memory reserved for the frame buffer. So if you have a blank screen, it's possibly working, but you just can't see anything. Also, still no HDMI audio even though it's built into the kernel. 5.9-current hangs at "Starting Kernel" showing in the serial port.

Hello, I'm using the Lime2 with 22.11(Desktop) + latest Kernel & it works like a charm. I'm currently toying around with the Mia E-Ink Display (Onyx Boox) and the display goes blank during loading the Kernel. Could the problem be that the refresh rate is not supported? The specs of the display are 2200x1650 with an refresh rate of 38 Hertz. I tried to change that via armbian-config (boot section) but it made no difference. Does anybody know a way to make it work? best

Hi everybody, I need your help in setting the default values of some or all GPIO Pin, so that it will be always activated after reboot instead of deactivated like the default is today. The reason for this is that I've connected a relaisboard to some GPIO Pins that will need "1" to be deactivated . Everything works fine, I can control and work with these Pins like needed by using "1" for OFF and "0" for ON. After booting up my BPI I initialize the needed GPIO Pins via export the pins. That will create virtual directories for these Pins with these defaults: direction -> in value -> 0 Like I mentioned, my relaiseboard need a logica…

Hi Armbians In the last years I had the pleasure to have more then 30 Cubietruck boards in my hands to work with. Condition of the boards ranged from "new and still sealed" to "working but has been running for some months 24/7 alraedy". In this time, I learned a lot about this hardware and I learned that none of them seems to be 100% like any other of them. While one board crushes immediately when the power input goes under 5V for some secounds, another board in the same condition, same CT version and production date seems not to care about this and keeps working. One of the most important points for stability is the network plug used. So what netwo…

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)

I test in Orange pi lite libMali.so, both X11 and framebuffer. Xenial' X11 mode tests by glxgears fps is around 250-270 but Jessie is around 400-420, billiard game that use Opengl is noticable different. For framebuffer, I use retroarch that also noticable slow in Xenial. Anyone know why Xenial libMali is slower than Jessie?

Happy New Years, I tried an LXDE ssh "MobaXterm" session with Chromium on my Orange Pi Zero 512mb. Surprised it worked however the laggy browser page scroll and javascript animations (appearing as a really slow vsync wave top to down), does that reflect real world performance when outputting to say hdmi? This Orange Pi has no immediate way to output to my tv so could not test otherwise. Is there any video hardware acceleration being used (mainline kernel Armbian) using this method? As maybe the lack thereof is the cause of lag, along with network overheads etc. Regards, Rollmeister

I have a encrypted external hard drive connected via USB. I want to be able to automatically access it after boot so I made a keyfile that I put in /etc/crypttab. After updating the crypttab file I ran update-initramfs -u. But after reboot the drive is still locked. Why is this? I suspect it might be because of the order of things at boot. Maybe crypttab is called before the USB device is initialized? Any help would be appreciated. Edit: I had a incorrect crypttab that's why it didn't mount. It works now thanks!

Hi, I'm trying to create a DT overlay for my Cubietruck running 4.19.62 and I've placed it in /boot/overlay-user and changed the user_overlays entry in boot.scr to load it. It is being loaded but I'm getting FDT_ERR_NOTFOUND when trying to apply it. The overlay is meant to change the label and default-trigger entries for the four LEDs in the leds node. I'm using dtc 4.1.4 and it does compile this overlay. Can anybody tell me how I can change this overlay so it will work ? Or perhaps tell me if this is not possible. /dts-v1/; /plugin/; / { compatible = "allwinner,sun7i-a20"; fragment@0 { target = <&leds>; …

1-Wire works, I put the explanation at the end of this post. Hello There, yesterday I burned a fresh image of Armbian_20.02.5_Bananapi_buster_current_5.4.26 to replace my current setup (Armbian_5.91_Bananapi_Debian_buster_next_4.19.59) and I run into some trouble with 1-Wire. I tried everything I knew and found on the web but 1-Wire still won't work. So I need some help. My hardware setup was not changed and it worked for at least two years. So would rule out a wiring problem at the moment. My SoC is a Banana PI M1 ( http://www.banana-pi.org/m1.html ) The strange thing is, that 1-Wire wont come up by itself, I have to run mo…

Hi all, I've installed the latest jessie Mainline 4.9.7 on a cubietruck and when I give sudo hwclock I get no printout and if I run hwclock as root I get segmentation fault Does anyone has an idea what is wrong ?

Hey, i hope this has not been answered already but i could not find it. I also hope this is the right place to report it. The orange pi + does not appear in the list of devices https://www.armbian.com/download/?tx_maker=xunlong but there is a download page for it you can reach by the search. https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-plus/ i assume its a bug in the web page?

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

After an "apt upgrade", the kernel was switched to "Linux 6.6.16-current-sunxi64" (Armbian 24.2.1 Jammy). On the WiFi side, no problem, but for Ethernet, it no longer seems to detect the link. So I downgraded to "Linux 6.1.77-legacy-sunxi64" with armbian-config. After this, the Ethernet works again. Do you have any idea where this could come from? And if this can be fixed in future versions?

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

I don't own banana pi but I'm thinking of buying it for the project we're going to do. I have raspberry pi zero but mediapipe is not working. I'm thinking of doing image manipulation and this is the most important library in my code. That's why I'm trying to do a detailed research because my budget is limited. Thank you for your help 💯

I bought orange pi win plus and I began to use armbian. Nearly everything ok but I can not use my bluetooth keyboard. There is a bluetooth symbol and I can enable it but when I wanna add my keyboard it says no adapter found... Please help me ..

Hello All, First of all excuse me if such topic exist. I am using the Desktop version with legacy kernel provided from Armbian - https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-plus-2/ I have tried to fix my overscan issues on my SHARP LC-42ADE-BK from the Aquos series. I had zero luck in resolving the issue. I used the documentation available on the Sunxi-wiki for FEX configuration ( http://linux-sunxi.org/Fex_Guide ) scavanged the internet for all kinds of information for configuring the scale/overscan etc. with u-boot/fex and such. Unfortunatly my TV does not let me choose Aspect ratio or such fucntions when my Laptop or OPI device is pluged with HDMI…

Hello list, a big thank you to all the developers of Armbian. I am a newbie to arm boards, have limited experience with various linuxes and definitely not enough know-how to progam anything or to compile kernels or build images, and things like u-boots are warships for me. Without your great software images my cubietruck would probably have been an investment into electronic scrap! A short user-feedback: Why does a normal consumer want to use a cubieboard? To use my favorite .mp3-player attached via SPDIF to his stereo equipment, play music from a harddisk and control it via VNC-Client from a tablet (because I don't want to use an 80 W TV to contro…

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?

Im using armbian stretch on an Orange Pi Zero Plus. On normal boot up, the system hangs at starting version 232 for around 1-2 minutes. After this the system procedes to boot normally. What is this delay time and is there any way I can remove it?

Hello all, I'm trying to revive my old OPIZ + cheap expansion board. I've tried all recent images available but I couldn't get it to work.

Someone has any experience changing the A20 to A20-H, our provider offers to us this new version, but I'm afraid to be software incompatible.

Orange Pi Zero - SPI1 - SPI_MOSI - Seems "weak" SPI_SCLK is Peak-to-Peak 3.3v (no problem) SPI_MOSI is Peak-to-Peak 165mv (whoa strange! hooked up to the o-scope) I suspect that MOSI is "dead" in my config since the waveform matches SPI_SCLK almost exactly, so perhaps it's crosstalk or something of that sort.

Dear experts. I'm using Armbian_5.20_Orangepilite_Debian_jessie_3.4.112 image on a Orange Pi Lite. I used a serial console to operate. I can't see boot message after initial boot up from console, but it outputs to HDMI display tty1 instead. How can I change it back to serial or have both to display boot message?

Is there any real-time patch support for the Banana Pi M2+? Thank You

Hi All, I'm using the latest Debian mainline kernel image -> Armbian_5.31_Micro_Debian_jessie_next_4.11.5. I can't get the USB OTG port to work as host only.

I also read about needing to load the g_serial module for Banana pi, but I don't think it's required here. Do I need to make any changes to th…

Hi, Need to have a point to point ethernet network without any router or dhcp server in between two OPiPC running legacy and Ubuntu desktop. Currently, when I connect a ethernet cable between them, they get valid IPs (IPv4LL) after 5 minutes so that might be the dhcp timeout today (300sec?). Tried to see where this value is in order to get it lower, so to have faster their valid IPs and start working, but could not find it in Armbian, any hints on where to look for that timeout value?

Bookworm 6.1 kernel Cinnamon terminal is unusable. The terminal screen flickers and the written text blinks with the cursor blink. Occasionally the terminal goes black. I am using an ancient 1024x768 screen. Is this the root cause, or is the terminal broken in Cinnamon?
