hello everyone, I managed to make a WaveShare's 3.5" SPI LCD (actually designed for arduino) work on NanoPi Neo Core running on armbian Bionic 4.19.57, but now i"m having some issues with the touchpanel (using the same SPI). i'm trying to figure out how where to connect the touchpanel cs pin, which from what i have read suppose to connect to CE1. could someone help me find out which pin is it? maybe this will help: root@nanopineo:~# dmesg | grep "spi0.1" [ 8.334791] spi spi0.1: spidev spi0.1 1000kHz 8 bits mode=0x00 [ 8.335492] spi spi0.1: spidev spi0.1 1000kHz 8 bits mode=0x00 [ 8.348670] ads7846_device: spidev spi0.1 1000…

Before this I used to connect my APM 2.8.4 Flight controller to a Raspberry PI on Ground, Pin 8 and Pin 10. Today I tried to connect it to my orange pi zero plus2 H3. Pin 9, Pin 8 and Pin 10. On armbian-config toggle UART2. When i tried to connect to it using cat /dev/ttyS2 nothing came out. Once a while sent out some gibberish. I set the correct buadrate at 57600 and 91600 to no available. But I know the settings are correct because when I connect using USB through /dev/ttyACM0 it works. I tried ttyS1 and ttyS3 nothing came out of it. On Raspberry I had done this many times just by turning on the Serial Connection using …

Hello. I need to set a low level on a gpio pin PA6 on boot. I'm trying to do this through the device tree: /dts-v1/; /plugin/; / { compatible = "allwinner,sun8i-h3"; fragment@0 { target = <&pio>; __overlay__ { pinctrl-0 = <&pull_pins>; pull_pins:pull_pins { pins = "PA6"; function = "gpio_out"; bias-disable; output-low; }; }; }; }; I need to set PA6 to low. After boot, I see my overlay in device tree, but the level on the PA6 is still high. I can easily control the level through libgpiod (gpioset gpiochip0 6=1 or gpioset gpiochip0 6=0), it works. But I ca…

hi, since 2 days i am using on my Banana Pi the Debian Jessie with 4.8.15 Kernel with installed Openmediavault 3.

An interesting fact (at least from what I can tell), the NanoPi Duo (v1.0 and v 1.1) has no builtin PUDs. Checking http://wiki.friendlyarm.com/wiki/images/8/8a/Schematic_NanoPi_Duo-v1.1.pdf and I see no PUDs on the GPIO schematic. Is this true? Is the Orange Pi Zero the same way?

Hello, community. For a while now, I've been trying to configure the input and output of i2s0 without success.

I must have missed the discussion about not having a desktop version for this board. Does anybody know why this option is not available? Now that I finally have the Bluetooth working, I can use it as a proper desktop. I have "simulated" a desktop build by following the Armbian build script... installing all the packages for xfce4, but it lacks some functionality (namely the notification icons). It would be really nice to have a proper Armbian desktop on this board. Thanks.

Hi folks, I am trying for couple of days now to put Lime1 to sleep and then wake it up, both by software and user interaction.

Platform oPi Plus 2E with Armbian 5.31 (Legacy). I have configured a WiFi adaptor, and it works fine in connecting to an existing hotspot. When I attempt to use network manager applet (or nm-connection-editor/nmtui from a root prompt) to create an Ad-hoc network I am getting permissions errors. For NM TUI it is 'Unable to save connection: Insufficient privileges.', and similar for the other methods. Can anyone give me some pointers on how to diagnose and/or fix this? From the research I have done the nm-applet error is likely a simple config error (not set up to run as root for this function), but the other avenues failures seem odd.

Hello Armbian community, Firstly, thank you for the amazing work that you do. Having Armbian has made the setup process so simple, and I really appreciate that I'm completely new to the world of SBCs and Armbian (but not Linux), and this issue had me stumped for a long time. I wanted to share the solution for those who are in the same position as me, as I only found this on Raspberry Pi resources. Sorry if this has already been covered elsewhere in the forums - my searches didn't show any answers from here, and additionally, I keep getting time-locked (forced to wait 30sec) for every forum search. The model of OPI I have is the Orange Pi Zero 2…

This is not to demand the devs to make the board work, I know your quite hang up on maintaining Armbian and the massive collection of boards. But I searched the forum to see if I could find it, and didn't find anything. So yeah well here is the thread about this board, in case others do a forum search. The board looks promising, but it would have been great with emmc on it, somehow they just cant get it right with these boards And if or when you need something testet, I'll be happy to help.

Hello, I'm a bit confused about the documentation, to be precise the hardware notes > Allwinner Generic > reconfigure video output part. It lists various options regarding video output. Then it states Now I see, inside boot, a "armbianEnv.txt" and the mentioned "boot.cmd". However, the default boot.cmd doesn't contain a saveenv line. Also, the head of the boot.cmd clearly states Can someone lighten me up on the relationship between the files armbianEnv.txt and boot.cmd, and why I should/shouldn't edit boot.cmd? I'm running the mainline kernel on a Banani Pi Pro, if this is relevant. Thanks in advance

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

Hi, Firstly I wanted to say thanks for providing builds for the Cubietruck, however unsupported they are. Current build is working after I fixed up the repository and the wired network configuration - learnt a fair amount in one afternoon! Secondly, is it possible using armbian-config to switch to stable repository and a stable kernel and reasonably expect it to still work? Many thanks,

Hi, I'd like to use kvm on the Orange Pi PC2, but the Armbian 4.14.12-sunxi64 kernel doesn't seem to enable it (or possibly the boot loader doesn't put the CPU in the right mode?). If I google: allwinner h5 kvm then the first hit shows a kernel boot log which shows kvm enabled on an Orange Pi PC2, so it looks like it's possible. I'm happy to recompile the kernel myself, but wanted to know if there were any gotchas that might mean this is disabled by default on purpose? Cheers, Tim.

Hi Armbian for Orange Pi Pc. how can I set the SPI mode to 3. When I try #include <linux/spi/spidev.h> //Needed for SPI port #define SPI_INTERFACE "/dev/spidev0.0" uint8_t mode, mode |= SPI_CPHA; mode |= SPI_CPOL; ioctl(file, SPI_IOC_WR_MODE, &mode) returns not allowed. Thanks Brett

Hi all, I've come upon a weird thing and I wanted to verify that I don't so something wrong. I've build a custom kernel module which is a PWM led device with an SPI interface. If I use the spidev, then everything works fine and I'm able to control the led. But when I'm using a custom device-tree and load the module then when I'm calling the `spi_write()` function then I'm getting an error (-22). The external device is actually an arduino nano that implements an I2C IIO light measurement device, using a dual light dependent resistor. Also I'm using the SPI channel to drive a led using PWM. It's very straight-forward a…

I need to be able to reset the bus to fix it and check the status of the channels, but I don’t know which Linux GPIO corresponds to the physical pins that the kernel associates with PA18 and PA19. I have tried using wiringPi, but it doesn’t indicate this. Can anyone help me? Thanks!

Hello everybody, I was running Armbian Wheezy for a very long time. Now I switched to the latest build and I have some problems.

My problem is that each time I try to do anything related to LCD over frame buffer I got next error: ioctl FBIOGET_VSCREENINFO: Inappropriate ioctl for device LCDs (ili9341, st7735s) I'm able to test behave exactly the same way -- every time lighted up white screen, but nothing more.

Im using Orange Pi PC+ with Debian 12 minimal image. I tryed to install/compile ovpn-dco-v2 as of standard deb (openvpn-dco-dkms) as well as of git (https://github.com/OpenVPN/ovpn-dco). In bouth cases compilation prcess itself was finished successfully but resulting driver ovpn-dco-v2.ko didn't work. In the first case, the driver caused a kernel error. In the second case, after "modprobe ovpn-dco-v2" , openvpn stuck somewhere in the middle and lsmod has hung down, blocking the console. Before installing the driver package i did: apt install build-essential kmod debhelper devscripts linux-headers-current-sunxi And as i thought everything went fine. …

Armbian_community_25.5.0-trunk.334_Orangepizero3_noble_current_6.6.75_gnome_desktop.img I downloaded above image with assumption that it would open desktop on first powerup. However, it kept on opening command prompt on first power up. I also tried installating gnome desktop from armbian config and rebooting. Still it did not open desktop. Please guide. Thanks in advance.

Until the day Armbian can auto-configure HDMI output (with respect to a TV or DVI computer monitor), the thought occurred to me that the Beelink X2 defaults to Android KitKat 4.x, and from there maybe it's possible to plug in the TF card that you'll be rebooting into, then access the card from Android to makes changes, like: h3disp -m 720p60 -d If a DVI-monitor is expected to boot into. I was even brushing up on MIT App Inventor to make presets from Android side, but my skills drop off sharply at that point. The practical reason for his, is not only to show the neighbors but also have a media player anywhere there's a screen. In conclusion, I don't know what m…

Hello, I have just updated to the latest Debian Server image of NanoPI NEO 2. When connecting via Serial and using vim.basic/tiny I got the following strange behaviour: As soon as I enter the insert mode a newline is inserted automatically. This does not happen when connecting via SSH. So far I haven't experienced this behaviour with my previous image. Any ideas? Kind regards, Markus NB: textwidth is set to 0 (disabled).

Hi I have strange problem with my nano pi neo core 2. The device was working a few days then suddenly I lost my ssh connection. I used serial port to communication to see what happened and I get reply below. The last line it is a Error so I should reset my device. I did it several times and the result is the same. I'm not specialist but I supposed it is something wrong with eMMC memory because if I insert SD card with armbian it starts normally. Anyone have idea what was that, what happened.

Hi everyone! I have v25.8 rolling for radxa cubie a5e running Armbian Linux 6.14.0-rc1-dev-sun55iw3 runnig and it has only ttyS0 serial device. Due to device schematics it should be able to provide serail interfaces with RTS/CTS support UART4-7. Was anyone able to activate this devices? As I understand, I need an overlay .dtbo files. But those cannot be found anywhere in /boot. Also I can compile those overlays, but I need the correct .dts files.

Hello! I run Armbian (just updated to version 21) from an 128GByte heavy duty SD card. I am just trying to setup searx (https://github.com/searx/searx) which is using Docker containers. One of the Docker containers won't start, throwing an error message: I searched for long, trying to find some possible solution for this issue. The most fitting seemd to be, where someone said: Yes, it's for another OS and hardware, but I found no other possible solution. So disabling apparmor through a kernel parameter, is what I am trying to achieve. I addded 'apparmor=0' to the bootenv, using armbian-config. I al…

Hi all! Has anyone some experience with dts overlays for the mainline kernel 4.14.47? I connected the SHT11 temperature sensor to PA7 and PA8, installed the sht1x.dts overlay from https://github.com/armbian/sunxi-DT-overlays/blob/master/examples/sht1x.dts via "sudo armbian-add-overlay sht15.dts" and afterwards looked via dmesg into the kernel output. That's what my OPLite reports: It is a kernel IO error. The LogicAnalyzer doesn't record any pin toggle. But what am I doing wrong? Do I have to deactivate the pins in GPIO driver? Can someone please help me? As I soldered the SHT11 by myself I modified some RPi userspace code to v…

Hello all, I cannot get stereo output from the headphone jack on this device. Until last august I had an image of debian jessie (kernel 3.x) and this was working fine (IIRC stereo was OK). I used mycroft AI to read the microphone and play sounds, also used MPD music server, blablabla etc a great configuration. Something happened during one upgrade operation and I lost my boot so I thought "why not take this opportunity to flash a new image". Mistake. BIG mistake. Now I cannot get any application to output stereo audio and also I cannot get any application to use the microphone. Can someone please help out at least gett…

I had an annoying issue with the WiFi of this board with Armbian 5.65 Ubuntu and Stretch. Sometimes it would spontaneous lose its WiFi connection. After researching it for a while I noticed that the wlan0 interface sometimes lost it's IP address. At first I thought it had something to do with the DHCP lease or sleep mode of the adapter. I just couldn't get my head around it and I ended up removing network-manager and going back to creating an interfaces.conf file for setting up my network interfaces. Somehow this solved the issue, the WiFi connection hasn't failed since! To do this, first create the wpa supplicant configuration file: ~# …

I've installed Armbian 23.11.1 Bookworm on a FriendlyElec ZeroPi. This version works flawlessly. A few days ago I updated to Armbian 24.2.1 and since then the ZeroPi crashes and hangs. Sometimes it happens after a few minutes, sometimes after a few hours. When it crashes I can't ssh to the device anymore (headless operation). Unbound, AdguardHome and cups aren't accessable, too. The last messages of the journal in an open cmdline window are: Mär 03 20:50:14 azp kernel: rcu: INFO: rcu_sched self-detected stall on CPU Mär 03 20:50:14 azp kernel: rcu: 2-....: (5249 ticks this GP) idle=16bc/1/0x40000002 softirq=20679/20679 fqs=2625 Mä…

Hi All, I'm trying to enable SPI2 on Olinuxino LIME2 board following the instruction of Armbian doc, and the README.sun7i... in the /boot/dtb/overlay directory. It seems I have to enable an spi2 device, but the overlay for SPI2 of sun7i is not present. The related section of armbianEnv.txt is the following: overlays=i2c1 spi-spidev uart2 uart3 uart4 uart5 uart6 uart7 param_spidev_spi_bus=2 param_spidev_max_freq=10000000 What I'm doing of wrong? Thanks in advance PaoloC

I can download armbian source code and build. Is there a way to build kernel only for my board NanoPi M1? I haven't tried building Debian, from wiki.friendlyarm.com building kernel only can be done by: ./build.sh -p sun8iw7p1 -b nanopi-h3 -m kernel Is there an equivalent option for armbian? Thanks.

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…

Good afternoon, I am using armbian 5.25 on orangepipcplus with legacy kernel. when visiting google.com site with firefox, I will only see the "mobile" site with restricted functionality. On the bottom of the screen there is a link "Google-Ansicht klassisch" which should bring me to the desktop version of google. But when pressing this a popup tries to come up but will not finish its presentation. Now this tab is blocked, I never get to accept google terms and conditions and can not use google. Do you see the same behaviour? Is there any known remedy? PS: Yes, I tried firefox "safe mode" - same thing! Thanks, gnasch

Hello everyone, I know this is a well known problem of the OPi Zero, but in regarding to "solutions": h3consumption works only with the legacy kernel because of the use of Fex Is there a way to tweak the things h3consumption did in the mainline version? In the mainline version from armbian-config it is possible to disable USB, in /etc/default/cpufrequtils it is also possible to set the maximum frequency and wifi can be disabled. Does anyone know any option for disabling the GPU, limit the DRAM clockspeed and the maximum active cores? Is the only possibility to recompile the kernel, at the moment? Unfortunately the main tu…
