I see from photos of the FriendlyElec metal case (without display) for the NanoPi M6 that there appear to be two holes for wifi antennas. Does anyone know if the optional wifi card sold by FriendlyElec comes with antennas? If not, are they a standard size which I can buy somewhere else?

Hello, I was wondering if the recent update fixed the problem with the lack of gpu support in the OP5 Pro. Thanks in advance.

Nanopi Neo 3 is typically offered in 1GB or 2GB DDR4 RAM versions, but the RK3328 datasheet says the RK3328 can support up to 4GB If I were to source 2x 2GB of the supported types could I resolder to increase RAM? Official product page : https://www.friendlyelec.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=279 RK3328 Datasheet : https://rockchip.fr/RK3328 datasheet V1.2.pdf Neo3 Schematic : https://wiki.friendlyelec.com/wiki/images/a/ae/NanoPi-NEO3-2005-Schematic.pdf could anybody identify the chipname of the 2GB DDR 4 ram on the board?

Hello everyone, I am new to this so please forgive my eventual mistake. I have a Rock 4 SE with Armbian Linux 6.12.13-current-rockchip64 (bookworm) for Rockpi 4B (because there is not a special version for SE it re-commanded to use 4B). And I try to use the CSI port to connect a Camera Raspberry Pi V2.1. And I does not work, I have tried to add different value to the overlay in /boot/armbianEnv.txt like overlays=rockchip-csi csi or imx219 with a reboot each time, but it doesn't seem to work. Looking around, it seems like there is a lot of issue with csi camera and rock 4 with armbian (and sometime other os). But none seems to have…

I need to turn off the pwr_led light under the armbian system, thank!

First of all, apologies if this has been asked before, I did search the forums and couldn't find anything related... My NanoPi M4V2 has an NVME still running Debian Buster and I have been delaying upgrading/flashing as I expect this to be not that trivial... My understanding is that the recommended upgrade path is to reflash the SD-card and start over, which is fine with me. However, I do want to ensure it will then again boot from the NVME drive as it currently does! My question is if I can do that directly (flash SD, boot from it, and change boot to NVME) and I will have all the previous data on the NVME *OR* …

I've recently used armbian-install to enable booting from my nvme/ssd drive and all appears to be working fine. However, I'm curious to know, why, the device is mounted twice as shown below. The / mount point is in /etc/fstab but where/how does the device get mounted again on /var/log.hdd. mount|grep nvme /dev/nvme0n1p1 on / type ext4 (rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro,commit=120) /dev/nvme0n1p1 on /var/log.hdd type ext4 (rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro,commit=120)

Hello! First time poster. Been slowly learning linux over the years. Kind of a noob but maybe at an intermediate to advanced noob level. I've been having trouble upgrading firmwares. As title says, 24.11.3 breaks display. Luckily I was able to SSH in and determine 24.11.1 is functional. I'm not sure how to tackle this. I can tell you, I have many errors on startup which i have attached. I should note I do have issues interfacing with this display. While resolution is read by armbian correctly, the refresh rate is NOT. I use a capacitive touch display that can support 1200x600@60hz. Armbian attempts to use only 75hz which does not play nice. I have attempted to…

Hi! I have an rk3588 board that has a dma330 controller. I have this driver that essentially polls a dmac channel and it memory maps the data that is received into user space. Now, this driver was developed with the idea to receive data from a peripheral, however, before that I just want to test it by doing some memory to memory transactions. To that end I developed another kernel module that acts as a transmitter (code attached: aerietest.c). However, I am not able to link the transmitting end of the channel with the receiveing end. I added the following code in the device tree: aerie@0 { #dma-cells = <0x01>; compatible = "lyte-ai,l2"; d…

After kernel version 6.12.6, the overlay to enable SATA on the PCie is not included in the build anymore. So https://github.com/armbian/linux-rockchip/pull/237/commits/5bdf4a4243e6c149290cdd2c8f5a7d1a1946670e is not effective anymore. The existing .dts can be compiled and works with kernel 6.12.10-current-rockchip64 and 6.13.0-edge-rockchip64, but then NVMe is not enabled. From Rock3A schematics and RK3568 datasheet I see that there is no reason that it could not work as the NVMe is on independent PCIe 3x2 lanes in the M.2 M-key connector. PCIe 2x1 lane meant for WiFi/SATA is on E-key connector. It looks like 'entity PCIe is mixed up' somehow.…

I'm using a Rock 5 ITX and noticed after installing the latest rk35xx kernel image (6.1.84-vendor-rk35xx) that my system wasn't booting. So I connected to the debug console and observed a kernel oops being emitted. It dumps out a few pages of data, but the initial messages and call trace are: I have all the hex data if someone would use it but it doesn't seem worth including here. The boot flounders around in systemd for a bit but never gets to a login prompt - and I'm not that savvy with uboot to enter single user mode or otherwise dig in more. So I reinstalled from nothing, upgraded all my packages (including the vendor-rk35xx kernel), …

Just like other times i burned sdcard and inserted latest version of Armbian_24_11, changed armbianEnv.txt to 5b and installed to emmc using armbian-installer. At the end i updated bootloader and emmc disappeared. I tried most of images and last image that is not bricking is Armbian_24.5.3_Orangepi5_bookworm_vendor_6.1.43_minimal.img.xz (link). Unbrick: 1) Reinstall Orangepi OS using document in the link on emmc. After installation is compete emmc will be back. 2) Reinstall Armbian lower than 24_11. The one that i found in archive that worked is 24.5.3.

Hello I would like to know if it is possible to have 2 partions on the emmc. Indeed My emmc have 256go for only the os armbian with OMV (2.5go only used). I would like to have for example a boot partition with size of 50go and an other partition for my data (200go). However when I use armbian-config the full emmc is formated. If a solution exist could you please share with me the solution. Thanks in advance for your support.

On my Odroid M1 which used to run kernel 6.6.63 / armbian 24.11.3 noble from NVME, an update to kernel 6.12.9 arrived this morning. Afterwards the machine failed to detect an external USB disk.

Hello everyone. I can't flash Armbian to EMMC on the OrangePi 5B board. I made an SD card, booted, ran armbian-install, selected Boot from EMMC/System on EMMC, the recording process was successful, but after that the board stops booting at all. When I boot from the SD card again, I see that EMMC is not a device in the system. There is no main mmcblk0, no mmcblk0boot0, no mmcblk0boot1. I was able to get EMMC back only after re-flashing the standard Android firmware using RKDevTool via maskrom. When I flash Android to EMMC and then boot from the SD card with Armbian, /dev/mmcblk0, /dev/mmcblk0boot0 and /dev/mmcblk0boot1 are back in place. Accordingly…

Hello, I ran sudo apt update / suodo apt upgrade on my Rock 3C this morning. I did notice that the kernel was upgraded but rebooted. It transpires that the kernel was upgraded to a completely new version (6.12.9) from 6.6.63 (or 62 I believe).

Happy new year everyone, So I really do not like the stub-resolver in Debian/Armbian , and I do not like forwarding any DNS request to any 3rd party in general. After some searching I found this: https://www.turek.dev/posts/disable-systemd-resolved-cleanly/ . Since we are on Armbian we need also remove the 00-armbian-default-dns.conf which points to cloudflare's 1.0.0.1 . 1. We probably do not need this, but just in case someone does not have it. sudo mkdir -p /etc/systemd/resolved.conf.d/ 2. We set the DNS Stub Listener to no and remove the comment from the line if applicable: sudo sed -i '/DNSStubListener=/s/^#//;s/=.*/=no/' /etc/…

Hello, I have installed the currently provided image "Armbian_24.11.1_Nanopct6_bookworm_current_6.12.0_minimal.img.xz" on my NanoPC-T6 (not LTS). Unfortuantely the only one USB3 port is not working. So no local access is possible and no external USB storage device can be used. I wonder if no one else has such problem reported yet since 3 weeks now (released 2024-11-21). The USB3 port is working with the FriendlyELEC image (rk3588-sd-debian-bookworm-core-6.1-arm64-20241112.img.gz), so maybe there is a small problem with a kernel module or the device tree.

Hello, Recently I tried to make pwm control on my Nanopi M4. Beside the PWM pin on the 24 pin connector (the one which actually controls the voltage output on 12V 2 pin connector for fan), I wonder if it is possible to use GPIO pins on the 40 pin connector as pwm pins to control fans. I tried to set pwmchip0 and literally checked every pin by connecting the wire to each one of them but I couldn't find that any othe these GPIO react on any settings I made on pwmchip0 pwm0. Does anyone know how to do this? Best Regards.

There is a problem with the usage of armbian-config on activating overlays. The entry in armbianEnv.txt includes the prefix in the overlay name. This can be workarounded manually, e.g. for w1-gpio the correct entry needs to be: overlays=rk3399-w1-gpio2 If anyone can point me to the source code I maybe can provide a PR to fix it. Another problem is the content of the overlay of this w1-gpio. After activating the dmesg give an error (the first w…

First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to the maintainers for their contributions. This project has helped me a lot, and it runs smoothly on my device. It seems that the status of the nanopi-r5s has been in the staging phase for a long time. I am wondering if there is an opportunity for it to be promoted to the standard support phase. Additionally, I would greatly appreciate having a compiled version of Ubuntu Server. Is there anyone willing to help with this? Thank you very much.

In the assembled images in GPT format, only rootfs was stored (it combines rootfs and kernel (boot.img) according to the rockchip documentation). After I built it, I installed it in the rootds partition, it was installed without any errors. But the system does not start. You turn on the power, the fan starts spinning very fast, spins for 5 seconds, the lower LED lights up, and then the fan stops, the light go…

On my NanoPi-R6C I have been doing several U-boot updates (writes with dd to areas in 1st 32k) and so far so good. But behavior has changed w.r.t. eMMC v.s. SD-card. I want to do some U-boot build config changes, so the risk it that something might go wrong and I would need USB MASKROM mode to do writes to eMMC I think. The NanoPi-R6C wiki is not very clear with 'connect USB', but it turn out that this should be a connection via type-A to type-A and it does not work in the USB2 port. I have a USB2-only type-A to type-A cable and used that. The NanoPi-R6C appears in the USB device list ('lsusb') and also the tool is seeing the device: /tmp/up…

qemu-system-aarch64 -M virt -cpu host -enable-kvm ... only works reliably when 1 CPU core ( -smp 1). When a VM has 2 cores, it randomly worked I experienced. If virt-manager pick 2 equal cores, VM UEFI/BIOS/kernel runs OK, but if a Cortex-A76 and Cortex-A55, all sorts of exceptions are shown or just lockup 2x or 1x 100% usage. In order to still be able to use KVM, start qemu-system-aarch64 as follows: taskset --cpu-list 4-7 qemu-system-aarch64 -M virt -cpu host -enable-kvm -smp 4 ... or taskset --cpu-list 0-3 qemu-system-aarch64 -M virt -cpu host -enable-kvm -smp 4 ...

Hi all, https://paste.armbian.com/koqimivaro vendor kernel boots, detects ethernet, wifi & nvme (booting from SD card) and seem to be working well. Also attached are the UART gathered first boot/install logs. I think the SBC accidentally skipped over the root password by resting on the enter key 😁 uart-logs.txt

I have attempted this with the vendor kernels and the mainline kernels, and they both do the same thing. The vendor kernel cannot see the EMMC at all after running updates on it. So that version would kill itself when updated even if it did install and boot off the emmc. The wifi also doesnt work on the mainline, so the options are mainline with no wifi or vendor with no emmc. Install to SD card --> to through setup wizard --> change firmware to 5b instead of 5.--> reboot --> armbian-install --> boot from emmc, system on emmc ---> spends a long time on counting files ---> file transfer screen flashes by in 1 second. --> shutdown ---> bo…

I have done some boot logs, but everything before line 110 is identical WithDB.txt WithoutDB.txt

It's just plain Orange Pi 3B board with default factory config booted from SD card. As you can see most apps can't be started, they just fail silently. If started from terminal they log some exceptions. OS is completely unusable. Hardware is functional and it works well with the default Orange Pi images. Here is the demo video:

I've tried installing k3s on my OP5Pro and it did not work out because I was missing a couple of things on the kernel. I read the docs on building a new kernel. Did that and was able to get a working 6.1.75 kernel. Even though i got some errors when installing the generated packages. What I did not find in the documents is how I can work on a new kernel. Say 6.11. Has anyone done this? Can you help me out? Thanks! P.D. On a side note. I built this kernel in the OP it self and it was kinda slow. What image can I load in vmware under a macbook air m3 to compile and build faster?

Hello everyone. I want to try to connect a custom AMOLED DSI display with orangepi 3b https://www.phoenixdisplay.com/product/color-displays/oled/at043qhd3008/ And there is practically no information. Maybe someone has seen or encountered similar problems? Do I understand correctly that the dts section on brightness adjustment does not need to be written, because AMOLED as such does not have a backlight? Is it possible to run such a display using simple-panel-dsi? Another interesting question is how to organize the power supply for such a display? It needs different voltages from 1.8 to 4.6 V

I installed this version (v24.11) of Armbian on a Rock Pi 4A Plus with a PoE hat and observed significant network performance issues. When powered via PoE, the network speed becomes extremely slow and unreliable, averaging around 40 kbps. However, when I switch to using a power brick, the network operates as expected, reaching up to 1 Gbps. I also tested an older version (v24.8.4) and found that the network functions correctly with both the PoE hat and power brick. Could anyone provide insights into what might be causing these issues with the newer image?

Hi, I am wondering if people have tried the Banana-Pi M7 board with `armbian monitor -m` and `stress --cpu 8` in different ssh or window terminals, both with bare board, with metal case, and also with different kernels ?

To prevent APT from installing <other-device> kernels that will render an installation useless I did the following: To see which kernel is running: $ uname -r 6.11.2-current-rockchip-rk3588 To see which kernels are installed: $ dpkg --get-selections 'linux-image*' inux-image-current-rockchip-rk3588 install linux-image-edge-rockchip-rk3588 install Its clear to see that I need "rockchip-rk3588" kernels and not the other 1000+ so wonderfully provides.

Hey, Quick question, can I use HDDs that have the pin-3 SATA "power disable" feature with the Kobol NAS, or should I steer completely clear of them?

It does not matter which of the lastest Images I am downloading for the NanoPC T4, none of them is showing any sign of boot sequence. I flashed the images with balena etcher to the SD-Card before. I thought writing the image with etcher to SD-Card is all I need to do. My old system Shaitan with OMV is booting from SD-Card witout any issue. I have no idea, why none of the newer Images escpecially for the NanoPC T4 is not booting at all. Does someone has any idea?

Hi, Just received this unit yesterday with my surprise and lack of reading, the unit does not include eMMC or SPI so I am unable to boot directly into nvme drive. Are there instructions somewhere on how to setup the device to boot from MicroSD but use nvme as main drive? Thank you.

On the LTS version of this board, there is no other chance than to run the vendor-rk35xx kernel if you want to see something on a screen. I noticed strange behaviour when this SBC was attached to a 2k QHD screen with the latest vendor kernel. Display size was limited to FullHD instead QHD and Firefox were crashing. When I switched from desktop to terminal I saw the top left corner of the QHD terminal cut to the size of FullHD which was quite a problem because I could not see what I was writing. Today I tried kernel downgrade from 6.1.75 to 6.1.43-vendor-rk35xx and now I can see QHD on QHD and the Firefox stopped crashing. Hopefully, they will patch the ke…

Hi! My Orange Pi 5 (no Pro, no Plus, no B…) was running Armbian, the Debian Bullseye flavour. It was running Linux `5.10.110-rockchip-rk3588`, then I installed the `linux-image-current-rockchip-rk3588` metapackage, which pulled and installed Linux `6.10.6-current-rockchip-rk3588`. Right after having installed such kernel, I tried to reboot the device, but the device never rebooted: it's just stuck at startup, nothings is displayed on screen and the device is not available on the network (doesn't do any DHCP request at all). I fully unplugged anything from the board, including removing and re-inserting the microSD card. The device now refuses to boot since I up…

I'm curious to experiment with LLMs on an RK3566 TV Box. I managed to build a working Debian disto for it, but wasn't able to locate any NPU support in the kernel configuration.

Dear Community, This might only be with the NanoPI-r6c images, but the SHASUM contains a temporary path which you don't have an thus fails. Since we cannot change the SHASUM because then the ASC would fail, I have a temporary workaround: sed 's,/.*/,,' armbian.img.sha | sha256sum -c In a script you could either 1. CD into the directory of the image 2. Run the SHASUM there 3. Use $OLDPWD to return or correct the SHASUM inline: sha256sum /path/to/file | sed 's,/.*/,,' > armbian.img.sha Dantes

I want to directly create an armbian root file system called rootfs.img and then adapt it to the RK kernel configuration to run compilation scripts/ Build.sh updateimg directly generates image burning I don't know if this method is feasible
