Hello Armbian community I am a bit confused - I only see images labeled for Raspberry Pi 4 in the Raspberry Pi section of the Armbian website. However, I have seen several videos (like the demo by NicoD) showing Armbian Jammy with KDE Neon running smoothly on Raspberry Pi 5. Are the images for Pi 5B hidden or moved? I am looking for a direct link to download the Pi 5B images (Jammy or Bookworm, desktop or minimal version), instead of having to guess if a "Pi 4" image actually supports the Pi 5. Thank you for your help!

Hello everyone, I'm currently working on a custom firmware project for the Allwinner V851S/V851SS SoC (e.g., dash cam or smart camera). I've reached the stage where I need to modify and re-sign the firmware images (TOC0/TOC1) for use with tools like PhoenixCard. Unfortunately, the tools found on GitHub (e.g., dragonsecboot, pack_tools, boot0, etc.) are often incomplete or fail to build due to missing references (e.g., rsa_sign_main, GetFullPath, etc.). 🔍 I'm looking for a complete and working version of the following tools: dragonsecboot pack boot0 sunxi_tools Full config files such as dragon_toc.cfg, sys_config.fex Working pac…

Hi! On the Orange Pi 5 plus with the 6.1 image (KDE), with a 4k monitor @ 60FPS and 200% scaling, when opening discord on Chrome it gets incredibly laggy. I'm just curious, is this a limitation with the GPU itself, or is this related to something in the software stack? Thanks!

Hi! I'm new in the forum, so I don't know if this is a bug or just a feature request. The idea is `armbian-upgrade` also runs dkms install, you know, like Ubuntu, so the zfs kernel module will be automatically building together with the kernel upgrade. Please, let me hear your thoughts about this. Maybe there is a flag to enable this already, or an open bug to implement the feature.

Linux 6.15 was released yesterday. How long does it normally take before it's ready for the armbian build process?

After booting up, the network card cannot be recognized on armsom. The network card is Broadcom's bcm4375. However, it was recognized after suspend once, but it can no longer be recognized afterwards. There is no relevant log in the log. When it was recognized, I wanted to open a p2p connection, but it could not be opened.

I am trying to change `/etc/ssh/sshd_config` parameters but am unable to restart sshd. ``` sudo nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config sudo service ssh restart ``` or ``` $ sudo systemctl stop sshd Stopping 'sshd.service', but its triggering units are still active: ssh.socket ``` neither is reload working either :- ``` $ sudo systemctl reload sshd ```

I know the edge kernel and trixie build is not supported, but it builds just fine, but during the first boot it fails when setting the root password. Any fix?

Can I build an Armbian x64 image for my NUC14? This PC requires linux kernel 6.14 for all driver support for the nuc14, like Ubuntu 25.04.

I'm now trying to run the armbian build framework on a x64 PC. I have a NUC14 running Ubuntu 25.04 and have installed docker.io. But when I try to build, it seems like it thinks I'm on an arm64 PC?

Hi. Im sorry, if the question below has been already discussed and published somewhere, but i didnt find proper information. So, what i have: orangepi5max, https://github.com/armbian/build.git this armbian, https://github.com/rockchip-linux/kernel.git and this kernel, which is placed in armbian-build/kernel. I've tried to use "userpatches/linux-$LINUXFAMILY-$BRANCH.config" config from armbian manual, to specify path to kernel, but despite the fact that manual states, that my custom config should replace the default one, ./compile.sh ignores it. So what am i doing wrong and is it even possible nowadays to assebmle the image using local kernel or it is already restricted?

I'm using Bluetouch in my iPhone as a bluetooth mouse (rarely when needed) for my OrangePi/Armbian/Kodi setup. All fine with that… except… with my iPhone paired to the OrangePi, it also connects all its audio to the OrangePi, *all the time* when in range, unless I completely disable bluetooth from the iPhone. According to the only instructions I've found, I've tried setting [General] Enable= in `/etc/bluetooth/main.conf`, and restarting the bluetooth service, but the only effect this has is that there's no audible output. The phone still connects its audio to the box, just with no audible output. How to completely disable Armbian from advert…

I have now been able to build server images for Raspberry Pi 5B and Radxa 5C, both having gpu hardware driver support. However, this only works with Ubuntu Noble as a distro base. I would also like to make Debian Bookworm images, but when I do, I never get any gpu hardware driver support. Why is that? What's so special about Ubuntu (which basically is Debian)?

In the official Armbian Radxa Rock 5C Gnome image (nobel) the WiFi hardware is detected, but in the server image (nobel) the WiFi hardware is not detected. Edit. I see I can use WiFi in armbian-config, but it does not show up in gnome on the server image.

In Gnome, there are two shortcuts, armbian-config and armbian-configNG. What's the difference?

Does running ambian-upgrade do the exact same thing as running apt update and apt upgrade?

I normally like building server images because they are small and fast to compile. An then I can add the wanted desktop by "sudo apt install gnome" or other desktop later. But, sometimes I wonder if the desktop images have more features, like hardware drivers, than a server image with an added desktop afterwards. Can this be the case? Or does server images contain the same drivers and hardware support as a image built with a destop included?

After building many images, often there are combinations of kernel, sbc card and linux base that will just give an error, like this one: Getting sources from Git [ kernel:6.1 rk-6.1-rkr5.1 ] fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at '/home/steven/build/cache/git-bare/shallow-kernel-6.1' To add an exception for this directory, call: git config --global --add safe.directory /home/steven/build/cache/git-bare/shallow-kernel-6.1 [💥] Error 128 occurred in main shell [ at /home/steven/build/lib/functions/logging/runners.sh:211 run_host_command_logged_raw() --> lib/functions/logging/runners.sh:211 run_host_command_logged() --…

I have noticed that when building images using the same kernel but selecting Ubuntu or Debian base (Bookworm vs Jammy), some hardware doesn't work on one of the images. Since the kernel is identical, why is not the hardware support the same? Is there a different build script for the two bases? Different userspace drivers? Just wondering..

During the installation process of Armbian you set admin password, make a new user, set time zone and system langue, BUT not the keyboard layout... Any reason this is not part of the default armbian install process? Keyboard layout should be the first option to set during boot.

Hello, I'm using Armbian (22.08.0) for risc-v on a Mango-pi.

On Armbian 25.2.1, I can't find package tags.

I read about Debian/Ubuntu, that — as the Armbian — in general have all sorts of UTF-8 locales installed by default, it is possible to generate ISO8859-2 locales anyway by using a 'locale-gen' tool (found such suggestion here ). But there isn't locale-gen in Armbian, it seems (Armbian v25.2.2). Can it be installed from some repo, or maybe it's possible to generate ISO8859-2 locales some alternative way? If so — how do i do that?

I started by making a .desktop file in file in the home/(xxx user name xxx).config/AutoStart and making it executable. the .desktop file will run fine when ran manually but doesn't start on boot I then tried making a .service file in /home/(xxx user name xxx)/.config/systemd/user/ then doing a systemctl --user daemon-reload then doing a systemctl --user enable (my service name) when i do a systemctl --user start (my service name) it runs fine on reboot …

Hi Members, I'm setting and reading the GPIO PINs for different BPI's frequently only by bash by maintaining the /sys/class/gpio/xxx values. The only problem is that all these files belong to root :root and I have to use the sudo command in my scripts. I've read about putting a non root user to the gpio group will fix that. But on Armbian there is no "gpio" group ;( That seems the reason why the directory /sys/class/gpio is not prepared as root:gpio Please has someone an idea when this will be implemented? Regards wollik

Hi - just wondering if there's something anyone can do to seed more of Armbian community maintained images - especially Rockpro64 and Rpi5 images. There seems to be only one seeder and just as I was typing this post, I got to download over a gigabyte of the Rockpro64 image but it's still not finished. It seems the seeder (?) was online for a moment but then seeding stopped. So if there's something someone can do, much appreciated!

I'm trying to install Jellyfin in a docker container to get hardware acceleration, I need to pass /dev/mali0 to the container. I'm running the 6.1.84-vendor-rk35xx kernel. Below are my clinfo results What am I forgetting here?

Hi all, Could someone recommend application with GUI to control the GPIO pins - turn off and on etc can be for RPi or OPi trying to make a remove access device to control a few things .

Hi, I'm using Armbian 24.11.1 bookworm with a V6.6.62 64 bit Kernel on a NanoPi Neo2. To debug, I have a UART/Serial-to-USB connector attached. Other end is on a Windows 11 box where I use Putty. The setup works fine with one minor issue. During the print of the boot messages, suddenly the printed line width of lines with [ <status> ] is limited 70 columns. It starts shortly after the Welcome to Armbian 24.11.1 bookworm! message and a "…" character is used to shorten the lines. This part has normal line length: Welcome to Armbian 24.11.1 bookworm! [ 4.922261] systemd[1]: Hostname set to <nanopineo>. [ 5.6…

Hello, Yesterday I was doing an upgrade on my NanoPi T6, and then I got a kernel panic and no boot. I am currently running kernel 6.1.84 To recover my information through a new mmc card I put armbian with kernel 6.12. And I logged in by doing a chroot. There used to be an option to install a newer kernel via armbian-config, but I can't find that option now. Is there any way how i can put on my current server a newer kernel or through cli which packages should i install. Greetings, A.H.

Hello, not sure if this should go under beginners, or this section but trying here. I have now set my armbian-config to rolling updates so I get the good beta stuff. Situation: I have no hard evidence of how often this actually happens, but it seems that every time i go and do armbian-upgrade, which I have performed yesterday and today, but also few days ago, I get the same 9 updates every time, armbian-bsp-cli-orangepiplus-current armbian-config armbian-firmware-full armbian-zsh base-files linux-dtb-current-sunxi linux-headers-current-sunxi linux-image-current-sunxi linux-u-boot-orangepiplus-current Is this…

Hello, I have an odroid hc4 which I am mainly using as a home NAS. I chose Armbian + OMV (headless) and it works really well. Now I tried using it as a media center at the same time with kodi. I tried both the "old" kodi version from the debian repos and also the flatpak version. For both it seems like the hardware acceleration isn't working. I can run youtube 1080p with vp9 quite fine, but neither 1080p with h264, nor anything 4k, at this resolutions it's stuttering a lot. Also the CPU-usage is always very high. When i start flatpak-kodi it returns: 'this->recurse > 0' failed at ../src/pipewire/thread-loop.c:62 do_unlock() libva info: VA-…

Hello everyone, I’m currently trying to develop an Electron-based application to run on the Orange Pi PC Plus (ARM platform), but I’ve hit a few roadblocks in the build process. My goal is to package and distribute the app so it can be run directly on this specific device, but I’m struggling with issues related to cross-compiling and creating binaries compatible with its architecture. Has anyone here successfully built and deployed an Electron app on an Orange Pi or a similar ARM board? I would really appreciate any guidance, tips, or recommended tools for accomplishing this.

I tried to install OMV on Orange Pi 5 Pro with Armbian Community but it say can't. Is it still possible to install it?

I successfully update to Oracular from Noble on my OPZ2 but it is missing dependencies since it requires base-files >=24.11.1. Oracular base-files have not been updated to 24.11.x branch. https://armbian.hosthatch.com/apt/pool/oracular-utils/b/base-files/

In most versions of Armbian, why does the device not log in anymore when I use VNCSERVER error and remains in the same initial login shell?

Thanks, Armbian for supporting users like us with community backed OS for SBCs which otherwise are struggling to maintain the OS software in synergy with their hardware product portfolio. The whole SBC paradigm revolves around accessing GPIO either as Inputs, Outputs, UARTs, SPI or I2C. If the main focus/priority is to get the UI up and running, there would be no difference between mainstream rooted phones/tablets and SBC. As a general observation, I have almost always struggled to run gpio based python scripts out of the box after loading minimal OS for multiple SBCs. As a humble request on behalf of whole community is to propose readiness for GPI…

Good afternoon everybody! My name is Andrade and I would like to know if anyone still has the old versions of the RK322x, preferably version 21

I've delete all my home files for the root user by accident. So im having trouble with paths on my system now. Is there a way to restore the default home folder? Or are there a list of paths that I can restore for the profile or bashrc?

Hi, Im trying to use the docker command to make some changes. However the docker binary is missing on my system. Ive tried reinstalling docker.io and docker-compose with no luck. Where should the binary be located? How can i install it? Im on armbian-trixie rolling release.

Im using armbian server edition. Im trying to setup my box to route internet from end0 (192.168.1.6) to internet on usb0 (dhcp). Im running dns & dhcp via docker adguard - but assume thats not working for now because once the nftable rules are applied I cannot access their web interfaces. But for now ping with ip is okay. With my current setup I can ping the internet from the 'router' via the interface usb0. But I cannot ping from the interface end0. ping 8.8.8.8 -I usb0 <- works ping 8.8.8.8 -I end0 <- Destination Host Unreachable Do I need to setup any static routes? Or should nftables handle all the routing? Ive t…

As configured on install (at least in 24.8.4 I installed), the netplan config files try to manage all networking interfaces - which breaks the virtual bridge interfaces that containers and VM managers like Podman, Docket, etc create and use. See https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/40217#issuecomment-2041628162 for more information If networkctl shows podman* or veth* as managed then this is probably the problem breaking your container networking. To work around this issue, I modified the file /etc/netplan/10-dhcp-all-interfaces.yaml to only manage en* interfaces rather than all interfaces, followed by netplan apply. # Added by…

Installed 24.8.4 on OrangePi Zero2. Assumed I would need to install neofetch to launch it, so didn't even try to run it before going straight to 'apt install neofetch'. On attempting to install, I saw the following: Reason is that armbian-config package includes /usr/bin/neofetch. To avoid confusion for new users, it seems like it would be good to either have armbian-config depend on neofetch instead of including the bash script that that package includes*, or have the Package file for armbian-config lock out the installation of neofetch (I think the Provides, Replaces, and Conflicts directives might be needed for that). I had a look around the https:/…

I have Armbian running on an Orange Pi and I like to work by changing to su so I'm not having to constantly type sudo in front of commands when I have a lot of commands that need root privilege. However, bizzarely, sometimes I still ahve to use sudo. So for example: root@orangepi5-plus:/home/Data/Mercurial_Info# usermod -a -G www-data username bash: usermod: command not found If I do sudo usermod -a -G www-data username How can I fix this please? It's also stopping me running a script I need that I ran on my old Banana Pi running Armbian.

I installed various version of Debian and Ubuntu Server (CLI) of armbian in orange pi 5, but there is no uart selection in armbian-config. I think this is os version problem. Could you can see the uart select in armbian-config? If so, can you tell me what I am missing? I tried apt upgrade and apt update and armbian-install, but these updates did not get me the uart port selection. Thank you for your reply

OrangePiPc2, ubuntu noble, unofficial image build, only terminal. Everything worked until I decided to install lxde. Ever since at booting it cannot get over plymouth-quit-wait.service/start running (24min 18s / no limit) how can I get to terminal at least?

I have been trying to download Ubuntu 24.04 Desktop images with Armbian Linux v6.6 for Jetson Nano of which the image size is 1.5gb. But the download always stopped at 200+MB. Anyone know why? Thank you.

I have Armbian 24.8.4 running on my CubieTruck. I wanted to experiment with running an access point on it, and was able to configure and run hostapd to do so. But now I want it to be a Wi-Fi client again and it appears that I royally screwed something up while playing with hostapd. When I run armbian-config and select the Network option, nothing about Wi-Fi shows up any more. Any suggestions where to start to get things back to how they were out-of-the-box? A reinstall is not an option.

I’m trying to help people use my Pi Hat with RPi clones and everything works, except for the DS18B20 temperature sensors. Using current versions of Armbian on both a Banana Pi M2 Zero, a Banana Pi M4 Berry, and an Orange Pi 3B, but no devices show up in /sys/bus/w1/devices. /etc/modules contains: w1-gpio w1-therm /boot/armbianEnv.txt contains: overlays=w1-gpio param_w1_pin=PA6 param_w1_pin_int_pullup=1 NOTE: PA6 is used so that it matches up with the default 1-Wire pin used on an RPi. These hats are already built, I can’t change this to a different pin.

I recently used Linphone for an audio call from my laptop to my desktop and it works for audio calls in command line mode With video calls, it is promising, but it complains with MSvp8 media errors (most likely can't use decoding libraries) I really want to use them in my armbian SBC since it is so lightweight (and my ili9341 LCD would look nice with a video call ) Does anyone here have experience with Linphone and BareSIP (another SIP video client, even more lightweight). The only discussion I see about it is in the Linphone google group and the german forum for "DoorPi"... but I can't see a guide to install and use it.

Hello, I am having a lot of fun making my first apps with python and tkinter... and with my recent good experiences with LCD TFT displays, I want to create an "appliance" project. I can start non-GUI apps with systemctl service files, and they run with the proper user permissions... and I don't worry about giving it root access. But I would like to do the same with GUI apps. They would be full screen, 320x240 on the LCD TFT. All I can do now is: * start with armbian minimal (with orange pi zero in my case) * add the DTS for LCD and touch, and the ko for spi-gpio (as seen in my threads in the orangepi zero section) …

I have LicheeRV Nano (version B), which is a RISC-V computer with SOPHGO SG2002 CPU. Someone ported Debian onto it. The device acts as an "USB gadget" - when I connect it to my laptop through USB, it identifies itself as USB Ethernet device. This device is running RDNIS. However, when I connect this device to my Ubuntu laptop, I always get new network interface, with different IP (in range 10.42.0.0/24). For instance, once network interface is called "enx8a7df6c752e6", and it's MAC address is "8a:7d:f6:c7:52:e6". Next time it is called "enxd23862ad4ce9", with MAC address pa"d2:38:62:ad:4c:e9", and so on. The dmesg command on my Ubuntu lapto…

Hi, I'm using an old Odroid-C2 with Armbian as server with PHP/mysql as test setup for some communication and using a previous used php script to upload a photo which uses imagick for some resizing. The script is ok, I used it before on a different server. How do I install Imagick, it seems not to work using the installation method from source as mentioned on https://imagemagick.org/script/install-source.php Anyone experience with how to install it on armbian? Thanks a lot! JJS
