I got an Orange Pi PC with Armbian Ubuntu Desktop installed. It runs perfectly fine. 1080p resolution, sound, ethernet, browsing, what-have you. It can even play x265 videos flawlessly (which is why I got it for as my RPi3 can't). Highest temp is 46C so far (with or without a heat sink and no fan). Anyway, I've updated and upgraded and then installed Kodi. My media is on my NAS, so I input my SMB info, and it connects fine. But as it reads the media, Kodi just shuts off on its own. No crash report or anything. It just closes and I'm back on the desktop. Re-opening it starts Kodi up for a sec and then closes itself. Deleting the user folder under a Kodi directo…

Hello, I am really struggling trying to find up to date images (debian jessy) for my Cubieboard4 A80. I'm thinking of selling the hardware now as i'm stuck on the old images which are not being patched: http://dl.cubieboard.org/model/cc-a80/Image/debian-server/ Can you suggest how i should proceed? Any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks, phrag

I have BPI-M2+ shutdown -P now or poweroff does not power off the board Board is just halted and fan is still spinning Anyway to power off the board completely?

Hello, I'm running ARMBIAN 5.25 stable with kernel 4.9.12-sunxi on my Cubietruck and I mostly use it as an AP. I've installed the "hostapd" package from the official armbian repository and it works fine until I want to connect more than 5 wireless clients. The kernel module used is "brcmfmac" provided by the armbian-firmware package. Is it an hardware limit and how can I bypass it if possible ? The working default config provided with hostapd package is below: ssid=ARMBIAN interface=wlan0 hw_mode=g channel=5 driver=nl80211 ctrl_interface=/var/run/hostapd ctrl_interface_group=0 logger_syslog=0 logger_syslog_level=0 wmm…

Greetings, as noted in the title I have a Plus 2E and I am trying to use the built in wifi to enable a wifi access point. I followed the instructions and video which recommended using armbian-config to create a hotspot. That utility failed to create the hotspot so I ran hostapd manually to find the issue and the following errors were reported (I will attach a file with complete output: ioctl[RTL_IOCTL_HOSTAPD]: Operation not supported wlan0: Could not connect to kernel driver I spent a couple hours searching and it seems related to the driver support AP mode. I haven't gone down the hole of trying to rebuild the driver yet because I'm not su…

Hi, I would like to configure my nanopi Air as an AP and facing some issues.

Good evening, I'm using a NanoPi Neo Air for streaming audio via bluetooth to a I2S sink. It's working in general but the audio data breaks away every second. It's always a on/off. I'm pretty sure it's connected to the speed between H3 - AP6212a but I'm not able to get it to work propably. I set the UART ttyS3 speed to 1500000 bit/s: My Fexedit looks like that: [bt_para] │ │bt_used = 1 │ │bt_uart_id = 3 │ │bt_uart_baud = 1500000 │ …

Is there any other firmware for the AP6255 available, besides the one made available for Khadas VIM at https://github.com/khadas/android_hardware_amlogic_wifi/tree/Vim/bcm_ampak/config/6255/BT or the one for the Raspberry Pi 3+ available e.g. at https://github.com/OpenELEC/misc-firmware/blob/master/firmware/brcm/BCM43430A1.hcd which uses also the same chipset? I am trying to make Bluetooth working on an Orange Pi Lite2. So far I had no success loading the firmware by issuing root@orangepilite2:~# brcm_patchram_plus --patchram /lib/firmware/brcm/BCM43430A1.hcd --enable_hci --bd_addr 11:22:33:44:55:66 --no2bytes --tosleep 1000 /dev/tty…

Hello, I am using the Armbian_5.38_Orangepizero_Debian_stretch_next_4.14.14 image on an OPi zero (H2+ chip). I tried to get "some sound" out of the LINEOUTL and right pins at the expansion port. However, alsa executables like aplay report that there is no sound card. (see below) I testet also with a non-root user (which is in the audio group). My initial guess was that there must some additioanl kernel modules loaded. As I understand, however, the lsmod output, (2) below, should be ok. What it is thing to do to see soundcard(s), e.g. as /dev/dsp? Do I need to set files such as ~/.asoundrc or /etc/asound.conf as a prereq…

Having my Orange Pi One now for two weeks. I've compiled a new kernel with the great compile tool of Armbian. Now I have AppleTalk as module in the kernel ( 3.4.110 - kernel/net/appletalk/appletalk.ko) It seems that the Ethernet device or driver does not understand AppleTalk. Although Ethernet works... well IP does. If I use a USB Network device (as eth1 with dm9601 module) I have no problem, but the on board network card refuses to work with the AppleTalk software Netatalk. It start, but the OrangePi dioesn't see other AppleTalk devices. With the USB network card, it works fine. It is a pity, because the Orange Pi One is really the cheapest AppleTalk router …

I feel like I have been here before..... I'm trying to get Netatalk working on my OrangePiOne and OrangePiPC. No luck again I have build a custom kernel with only appletalk extra as a module ( appletalk.ko) and used the then created package: linux-image-dev-sun8i_5.24_armhf.deb to install this over an image of the beta images site for an orangepizero.

Hallo All, I installed Armbian bpi m2p. With both server and desktop after i change, off course. i getting stuck with apt-get update not working. error showing are "could not resolve faild to fetch. Anyone know how to solve this? Also there seems a problem with the ethernet adapter. When i want to add new connection, after selected new connection, i cannot chose in dialog menu, nothing can be changed or edit. with warm regards, Frank

Hi you all, I have flashed a good, tested and reliable 32GB SD card with the last build for Orange PI Win (armbian 5.38) and when first updating, it stucks in "waiting for headers" for too long. I have read that this is caused in Linux systems because one installs third party software whose repos take long to answer, but since here it is a first and fresh update, with nothing but armbian inside, I ask myself if it is normal or there is a problem with the servers at this moment. Only apt-get update ca take up to 1h 30 min, so it is really an annoying issue. Is anyone out there experiencing the same problem (and hopefully with a solution) ?? Thank you guys!…

Hi, I have recently called apt-get upgrade (with my regular installation and also with a fresh one) and after trying to extract armbian-firmware (I think it was that name but I'm not totally sure) dpkg returns an error. All other packages are installed without error. Unfortunately the OrangePiLite then hangs on next boot. I guess this package is broken in the repositories? Has anybody else encountered this issue?

Hi guys. I installed Armbian 23.8 Bookworm on mmc and I have not eth0 interface. WiFi works. Could you help me?

Armbian 24.2 is broken on Orange PI PC2 (Debian Bookworm CLI) Latest stable community release: https://github.com/armbian/community/releases/download/24.5.0-trunk.123/Armbian_community_24.5.0-trunk.123_Orangepipc2_bookworm_current_6.6.20_minimal.img.xz With update 23.11 -> 24.2 the orange pi pc2 no longer starts. I tried a new sd installation and it too does not appear on the network. Right now I don't have a serial cable to check but it is possible that the network driver is missing or not working. SD, SBC and PSU are 100% working: a revert to 23.11.2 makes it work perfectly.

Today I noticed that last Sunday a community version of Armbian was released with Orange Pi 4A support. I tried to flash it in different ways just in case, but it just wouldn't boot. I used BalenaEtcher, Rufus and Armbian Imager and neither of them worked. Im new in this stuff, so I wanted to know if someone could tell me if it is something I'm doing wrong.

Looks like there is a problem with this image. A brand new banana pi m4 berry would not boot from SD. I then tried Bananapi-Armbian_24.8.2_Bpi-m4berry_jammy_legacy_5.4.125_xfce_desktop it boots normally. Kindly review this. Ron

Dear all, i just installed a fresh Armbian 4.5 Jessie with Vanilla kernel 4.2.3 on an SD card and booted it on a cubietruck. I did not receive any HDMI output. This did not change after a kernel update to 4.2.5 via apt-get update and apt-get upgrade and a reboot. However, the same cubietruck works flawlessly with Debian Wheezy (2.6 updated to 4.5) and kernel 3.4.110. I checked the boot.cmd script and looked into cubietruck.bin - the standard settings would appear to identify the correct (HD) display resolution and to enable HDMI by default. Do you have any recommendations ? Is there anyone experiencing the same problem ? With kind regards, Lupus …

Hi all, traditionally I have used Bananian on the Bannan Pi M1+, but I thought that I would give Armbian a go as there seems to be more activity here and there are tools for compiling an entire image from scratch :-) So far I love Ambian, thank you for the work. I have tried the vanilla Jessie image (both downloaded from here and compiled myself) on the Banana Pi M1+ and with the exception of the WiFi issuet which I solved from this forum, all ran well. However I can't seem to find an SPI driver. My apologies if there is another forum post about this, I did try searching but the search function removed SPI from the query due to it being less than 4 chars :-( When…

Dear all, I am using armbian Mainline Debian Jessie 4.9.7 and 4.9.12 on a Banana Pi Pro (A20). Coming from legacy and fex, I came a long way learning a lot about Device Trees, Overlays, etc. the last 2 weeks. I even compiled some dev kernels to experiment. I currently struggle with with the OTG port. I have two devices on the primary slots and need to get the OTG in host mode to attach my third device. I've read that the OTG is not providing 5V to the device. Therefore, I use Pin4 5V DC and Pin6 GND of the 40Pin header. It works well when connecting Device #3 on USB 1 or 2. But not on OTG. I used dmesg to track devices. Is there an…

I'm trying the new version of armbian for orange pi plus 2 . Is there some news to create an access point ?

From the CLI that is. I plan on using the OPi as a headless MIDI processor, and I'd like to be able to switch remotely the audio output of ALSA between the default audio-out, the HDMI out and a USB sound card (CM108-based, tested working with the current kernel). ALSA documentation isn't well maintained, most of it is old and doesn't correspond with the current state of the software (config files locations and names, contents etc). I tried various examples I found on several bulletin boards, but none really worked since Armbian seems to do things a bit differently. So I'm asking here: on Armbian, how do I switch remotely the output audio device in ALSA? No remote …

I started using armbian just a few days ago, I used the cb2 image. When I updated from 5.10 to 5.11 when I play a video, the video surface is darker, for example, instead of white I get grey.

Hello, I'm using Armbian 5.20 on my Orange Pi. Everything is working as it should except for the subtitles in MPV. I already upgraded to a newer version of MPV VDPAU which makes no difference so i went back to the orignal MPV and VDPAU. The problem is that at intermittent times the subtiles display over each other. It seems that the first subtitle which should have been gone according to the srt is still being displayed under the newly displayed subtitle. Have anyone encountered this problen and is there a solution to this problem?

I realize there have been a few topics on this, but it seems to me that this was considered fixed. When using 5.23 with a 4.8 kernel, the MAC address was stable. After upgrading to 5.25, the MAC address was still the same as before. However after an outage, the two boards running 5.25 came up with a new MAC address (two boards still running 5.23 came up with the same MAC address). Then the MAC address seems to change every boot. The problem is that the FiOS router (an ActionTec) I have remembers both the machine name and the MAC address (it nicely creates a DNS entry). If the same name appears with a different MAC address, it ignores the name from DHCP and cre…

As I told on another topic, yesterday I installed Armbian 5.90 buster 4.19.57 on my OrangePi One. Now, when it boots, all the output text goes to the bottom line of the screen, with each line overwritting the previous one (no scroll). Then it asks for username, and when I type it it asks for password, overwritting the username I typed. And it probably displays the wellcome banner, but I just see the last line of the banner. Once logged, I have to type "clear" and then I can use the full screen, and it scrolls. That happens on the console, if I start a new session from another machine (using PuTTY) it works fine.

With dnsmasq dhcp server disabled, there are no problème. My guess: their are some troubles between the dhcp and Armbian. Indeed in tried to setup a isc-dhcp-server to remplace the Pihole dhcp without success. (Same behaviour) You could see my search on Pihole forum here …

hello everyone ! I'm trying to listen music with my orange pi over armbian of course. I have installed VLC and it seems works but not sound . I use the 3,5mm output connected to the amplifier At the moment no sound and no music .... Does anyone know what I have to do ? Thanks in advanced Walter

I have Orange Pi Zero and use mailine kernel v4.11.12 as Jessie Debian. I have seen in specification OPI zero memory SDRAM 256/512MB DDR3 (shared with GPU) because I don't use GPU memory how to split memory between RAM and GPU like in Raspberry Pi I can do this in raspbian-config and set 16 Mb for GPU. Is it possible on ARMBian ???

Hello :), I have updated my system from "Armbian_5.35_Debian_jessie_3.4.113" to latest "Armbian_5.53.180722_Orangepizero_Ubuntu_bionic_next_4.17.9". With jessie there will only S0, S1, S2 displayed and Im Working with S1 (Uart1) and S2 (Uart2) from the 13 Pinheader. With Bionic and also Stretch i got S0, S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6, S7 and none of them is working. So how can I access the Uart1 and Uart2 with the new Bionic build?

Device: Orange Pi +2e. Builds 20.20, 20.05, 20.08 The Armbian Boot Logo is shown only when we boot from SD Card. Do nand-sata-install to eMMC and boot from eMMC, the logo disappears. Could this be a timing issue as it boots faster on eMMC? I do not see any flicker or flash during u-boot. --Rajesh

Hi to All, I decided to start this new tread for searching of the best solution for unification of the boot process from any available media. Main target is Armbian next and development branches and mainline Kernel and U-Boot. Boot device can be eMMC, SD/MMC, USB Flash/HDD and SATA HDD/SSD probed in given order. In case of booting from eMMC, SD/MMC and USB Flash Read-Only Root FS can be used optionally. In case of booting from SD/MMC or USB Flash eMMC and / or SATA devices can be updated automatically. Some effort in this direction was done by me and described in Armbian Customization thread. The tests was done on Olimex' A20-Olimexino-Lime2-eMMC (HW rev. …

Hello There seems to be a problem with the latest kernel 4.19.53-sunxi64. I cannot configure the 1-wire support.

Greetings, I've been building an image for a banana pi m2-zero. I noticed during the build that the following DTS is chosen: sun8i-h3-orangepi-zero-plus2.dt There is a sun8i-h2-plus-bananapi-m2-zero.dts in the same directory, that I think would be more relevant. How can I choose this DTS instead?

hi, as of this morning, i tried updating my NanoPi Neo build (kernel=dev, os=ubuntu xenial, type=no graphics/server). Has been building fine for months.

I have an Orange Pi Mini 2. As far as i know there is no official/ unofficial armbian build for this. there are other boards like orange pi pc, orange pi 2 and tritium h3 board whose images run fine for this board. I have also made armbian image builds with orange pi pc as target and these images work on opi mini 2. I would like to know how could i make a build exclusively for orange pi mini 2.

Hello I having some issues with the Armbian Buster image for Nano Pi Neo 2. https://www.armbian.com/nanopi-neo-2/ When I launch the command sudo apt update, I'm getting the following error: The package cache file is corrupted, it has the wrong hash I already downloaded the image several times, I still getting the same error. My SD card is ok, I have tried with 2 different ones. I can remember having the same issue with a preview version. What's wrong??? Thank you

I just wanted to report that Armbian Buster image for Orange Pi 2 there SSH does not work. I tried installing it twice and also tried taking all updates. I had no skill to analyze or fix the problem, so just wanted to report it as is in case if it is not known. SSH does work on the Bionic Image for Orange Pi 2.

Hi All I am not able to run Armbian Buster from the Downloads page (https://www.armbian.com/cubietruck/) on the CT board. Other images run fine, including: - Armbian_5.65_Cubietruck_Debian_stretch_next_4.14.78 (from archive) - Armbian_5.65_Cubietruck_Ubuntu_bionic_next_4.14.78 (from archive) - openwrt-19.07.7-sunxi-cortexa7-sun7i-a20-cubietruck-squashfs-sdcard.img.gz (from OpenWrt downloads site) The problem is that it endlessly reboots after resetting the CPU. The output from the serial port is shown below. I can interrupt the Autoboot and get to the Uboot console ok. The output from printenv is also shown below. Any…

good morning I have an orangepi one and SD with Armbian. Great graphics, but many menus in Chinese and I can not change Does anyone know how to do it? Thanks in advance

Armbian Cubietruck Desktop does not start the graphical environment for Nand. I downloaded the Armbian Legacy 5:10 Cubietruck Debian jessie 3.4.112 Desktop (http://mirror.igorpecovnik.com/Armbian_5.10_Cubietruck_Debian_jessie_3.4.112_desktop.7z) , I recorded the image on an SD card using a software called Rufus ( https://rufus.akeo.ie/ ) Insert the card into Cubietruck and Armbian starts and works perfectly ! Nand-sata-install.sh run the script to perform the copy of the card to nand , the same copy without any error and asks at the end off the Cubietruck and disconnect the SD card . After disconnecting the SD card the Armbian does not start. However I rode the…

Hi to All, I found this project extremely useful and start customization process in the following directions: customize packet set for deploying into A20-Olinuxino-Lime2-4GB based server box use read only Root FS on NAND and SD with overlayfs and USB automount capability fully configurable by scripts in userpatches and up-gradable by web interface only completely none interactive (no tty1, ttyS0, ssh etc.) and controllable via web interface only Armbian project usage is a must in later maintenance so the customization has to be done by userpatches only. Final project has to be ready for automated builds. On the first step while trying to remove changing root pass…

I just updated my armbian kernel, I did it with: apt-cache search linux-generic to find the images and sudo apt-get install name of the image to install, the new kernel is in the /boot folder but if I restart It continues to start with the old one, and if I eliminate the old one it no longer starts. How do I select the new kernel to boot from it? i use orangepi+2e

Hi. I've been using my Cubietruck for some time now without any issues. It is not directly connected to the outside world and is only used for some home automation. It boots via SD -> the SSD and has an internal battery as UPS. Really happy with it. Last year I migrated from Wheezy to Jessi so now I am at: ARMBIAN Debian GNU/Linux 8 (jessie) 3.4.109-sunxi I still receive the updates via ap-get update && upgrade, however should I be updating major like kernel? As this thing is used for home automation I am not looking forward to large down times. ;-) tnx for your honest responses.

I download the image of this page, unzip the image and use rufus to burn it in a Samsung SD 32 GB evo. I use power supply of 3000 mah https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-zero-2-h5/ It always fails, and it starts a reboot and kernel panic cycle What image i need use?

I have Orange Pi PC plus. When I install Jessie Desktop it doesn't start desktop and only runs command prompt. Tell me how to start Desktop

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?

Hello, After looking on the forum and on the internet I am turning to you. Here is my problem: armbian is currently running on an SD card and I would like to put it on the eMMC memory of my orange Pi 3 (8gb). When I run the sudo nand-sata-install script it offers me to install eMMc on my memory but tells me that the partition is too small. 8go seems largely sufficient to install armbian. You should know that this orange Pi already contains linux firmware in its internal memory. I figured this was due to the fact that maybe this version of armbian didn't support emmc memory, so I tried with the focal version, the buster version and the bionic version…

Hello, I install Armbian on my Orange Pi Win Plus, i use the image for Orange PI Win i have the boot starter after nothing, someone can help thank you

Hi, I bought an orangepi zero H5 and I try to setup armbian on sd card. I write the image with etcher but there is no screen display when I boot. I wait long time about 10mn, my card is 16Gb, but no display on my hdmi tv. I test Armbian_5.27_Orangepizeroplus2-h5_Ubuntu_xenial_dev_4.11.0 , and the nightly build Armbian_5.27.170520_Orangepizeroplus2-h5_Ubuntu_xenial_dev_4.11.1 but it is the same story: no display. I test the official Ubuntu from Orangepi there is no problem, the boot is fast and I get display on my tv. Do you have some advice ? Thanks. G*

Hi! I have an old Allwinner A10 based tablet that runs on Android. I want to install some other OS on it. I tried the instructions on linux-sunxi.org and created a page for the tablet: https://linux-sunxi.org/Softwinners_crane I extracted the FEX file from an image I got from the manufacturers a long time ago: http://github.com/linux-sunxi/sunxi-boards/pull/72/files The linux-sunxi mailing list pointed out that my tablet is similar to Topwise A721, so I used that dts file to compile u-boot and the kernel, and tried to boot it through an SD card. Trying to boot that, u-boot starts, and then gets stuck at "Starting kernel..." Then I found…

Hello, will there be a dedicated Armbian version for NanoPi Duo? I have tried Armbian_5.33.171013_Nanopineo_Ubuntu_xenial_next_4.13.5.img, which worked on the Duo. Mosquitto, Node-RED and WiringOR could be installed without problems. One thing doesnt work until now is WLAN, which is not recognized by nmcli dev. Would be fine to get a validated Duo version. Regards, Walter

Hello, I'm trying to boot an Orange Pi Plus with Armbian 5.20, and it does not work. I've already check that both OPi and my sdcard work fine, because I can flash and boot the images on orangepi.org site. Besides, I checked how u-boot starts with both Armbian and "debian server" orangepi.org image (both attached)

Hi I am very new to computers. I have a raspberry pi 3 and just bought a orange pi one. My problem is I am unable to download an operating system to my working raspberry to burn to an sd card to be able to use the orange because the raspberry doesn't have enough space on my memory card. Do any of you know a company or person that could sell me an o/s that is already on a card for the orange, I have been hunting for ages for a site that sells something like noops for the raspberry. I have read that armbian edge might be the right choice if i can get it. Any help appreciated.

Are there plans for an armbian version for the new Orange Pi Prime? Hardware specs look very similar to the PC2 but it has 2GB RAM which makes it an interesting SoC.

hi, I had a few Orange Pi Zero's lying around for a while and thought of putting them to some use. I was trying to find an image for Orange Pi Zero H2+ over here ( at Armbian Orange Pi downloads section ). I couldn't find the image for Orange Pi Zero H2+. There are images for H3 and H5 on that page. Can someone please point to the appropriate image for this board? Thanks a lot.

Hi, Are there any news on if Armbian will be on the new H5 64bit board? Orange released an Android SDK and an Android image but I guess everyone is waiting for a decent 64bit Debian. Since took the plunge and got into the H5 wagon ordering one, I looked at the released info and obviously there was nothing I could use myself.. So the question goes to the Armbian gurus, guys do you think that there could be an Armbian release for H5 this year? Christos

no led, no output, tried it with 3 different 16gb class 10 sandisk sd cards, previous versions works fine, and i also tried the download from torrents and the direct downloads, still nothing

I am using the latest Armbian version with a legacy kernel on my M2+ board. The Armbian forum has already been a great source of help. Now I am facing a new issue: - for my setup the IPv6 NAT netfilter module is required, which was introduced in Kernel 3.7 So in my understanding I have two options: a) backport the kernel module(s) to the legacy Kernel by customizing the armbian build process switch to the mainline Kernel The mainline kernel for H3 boards seems to lack support for Gigabit ethernet and in general still remains no recommended for potential overheating problems? Thus, I guess I have to get working on the Kernel module backports. Do yo…

hi guys, using Armbian 23.02.2 Buster with Linux 5.15.93-sunxi on a NanoPi Neo Core LTS. I configured cron to do a daily reboot at 00:30. Every 10-20 days the system is becoming unresponsive unless I do a power cycle. Where should I begin to investigate this issue? Thank you

Hello, I want to use Armbian on a Cubietruck with an Onyx Boox Max 2 ebook reader (HDMI port) as display. I tested Armbian Stretch mainline kernel 4.14.y and Armbian Xenial desktop legacy kernel 3.4.y. But with both systems I get a black screen. I use the serial console to access the cubietruck. When I plug in the HDMI cable I get following info on Armbian Xenial desktop legacy kernel 3.4.y: <6>EDID version: 1.3 <6>PCLK=125000000 X 2104 2244 2284 2384 Y 1560 1565 1570 1590 fr 32 NP <6>Using above mode as preferred EDID mode <6>PCLK=125000000 X 2104 2244 2284 2384 Y 1560 1565 1570 1590 fr 32 NP <4>Unimplemented SV…

Hi, I read the docs but could not find out what to download to get a headless server. Getting Started says: "mainline: headless server, light desktop operations" In mainline there are 2 downloads for server (Debian, Ubuntu) and one for desktop (Ubuntu). I do not need a desktop, thus I do not want to waste space, RAM and CPU on anything related to it. May I ask, what to download or if there is no headless version what to do to remove the desktop-features alltogether? Thank you very much. Stephan

Hello, I have a cubieboard A10 connected to a SSD drive (transcend) trough the sata port. I use it as a headless server to run transmission, nfs and barracudadrive. The board runs from a sandisk 16gb µSD card, the data is on the SSD (with dynamic links). I use the standard legacy armbian image without DE. The SSD is powered by the board and the board is powered with a 2A 5V power supply, comming from a sony psp. If I measure the powerconsumption at the wallsocket, I measure 6W in idle and it goes up to 10W in use (so just enough for the power supply). Because there is a specialist here in powerconsumption (tkaiser), I wonder if it isn't possible to make …

Hi, i have a Olimex Olinuxino-micro-emmc and the armbian image 5.31 and 5.25 booting fine but NO network is comming up. The link led's are on but no once Packet will be transmitted.

Hi there, I need help in finding the lates Debian Buster image for my R1. Please can you point me to the latest version ? Many Thanks Wollik

Good night, I have the sound problem but with hdmi audio, de default is the 3.5 mm audio jack, then I looked for the asound.conf in /etc, then I found that this file doesn't exist and after that I've created it with the following content: pcm.!default { type hw card 1 device 0 } ctl.!default { type hw card 1 } the problem is that even created this way the sound output still being the 3.5 mm jack and I don't know if I need to change some setting to mpv player to output the sound through hdmi. What else can I do to change the sound from audio jack to hdmi?

Hello, I have an OrangePi Zero H2 which until recently was running almost flawlessly with the Armbian_5.38_Debian_stretch_4_14_14 image. When I did a kernel upgrade using "apt-get dist-upgrade" (because I had earlier the error message ~"failed to Load Kernel Modules", and dist-upgrade was recommended), and this dist-upgrade failed inbetween (probably because of power consumption), the SD card was left in unbootable state. (error msg see below [1]) I concluded that the /boot directory was corrupted, so from a new installation of Armbian_5.38_Debian_stretch_4_14_14 made elsewhere I copied all the /boot directory over to my SD card. This m…

Hi, I did a dist-upgrade on my BPi M1. Now it is running on ARMBIAN 5.73 stable Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) 4.7.3-sunxi When I choose a newer kernel in armbian-config after the reboot it is still running with the old kernel. When I do an apt-get upgrade it shows this error in the output: update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-4.20.7-sunxi with 1 The BPi is booting from SSD with LVM.
