Hi, I've just installed chromium on latest noble and some ffpg packages for. Unfortunately there are issues with Live Video Streaming, stucks and all green in between, None Live Videos seems to work better. It worked with the preinstalled firefox, unfortunately live video always stops after some minutes, while other stuff on websites around the videos continues. It's an rk3399 Board.

I think things started after the latest update of OMV that is running on Armbian/Odroid HC4. dmesg shows lots of SATA problems: [59383.614395] ata2: hard resetting link [59384.326300] ata2: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 310) [59389.382069] ata2: hard resetting link [59389.696318] ata2: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 310) [59390.934277] ata2: hard resetting link [59396.289764] ata2: found unknown device (class 0) [59400.829565] ata2: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 310) [59400.839695] ata2.00: configured for UDMA/33 [59400.839735] ata2: EH complete [59401.005566] ata2.00: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x10002 action 0xe frozen [59401.005585] at…

Hello, Has someone managed to make widevine work properly in armbian for any ARM64 board? I have a orange pi 5 plus board and I'm using armbian with the vendor kernel and I'm struggling to get widevine working without success. I've tried several online tutorials but none of them seem to work (but they also seem to be rather old).

Hi all, recently installed this on OPi5, i would like to learn more about how to start utilising the GPIO to sense something like temperature alert of some sort or be able to add to the inputs and make something happen like send email alerts when something is triggered.. any suggestions ? cheers

My TV is being weird. I adjusted the taskbar so it’s not off screen, although I didn’t think about the minimize/maximize/etc being cut off. I tried looking around for a solution but didn’t find topics with solutions that worked. My TV is funky and doesn't have a video adjustment menu, so I can’t do that. And the resolutions available are supposed to be supported by my tv. Am I able to set screen boundaries, like a screen safe area so the display is not cut-off? If it’s not possible, it would make a nice feature.

I installed Filebrowser via armbian-config but it didn't work. The container was restarting and there was: Using database: /database/filebrowser.db Error: open /database/filebrowser.db: permission denied in the .log file. The developers of Filebrowser explained they introduced some breaking changes and documented the changes that have to be made to avoid that error: - User: File Browser no longer runs as root, but as user with PID 1000 and GID 1000. You can still change this by using Docker's --user flag [https://www.docker.com/blog/understanding-the-docker-user-instruction/]. - Volumes: the volumes with the database and configura…

Hi everyone, I installed Armbian 23.11 Jammy-amazingfated Gnome to my Orange Pi 5 Plus and it works nicely. The problem I am having is that I cannot wake up SBC if it goes to sleep. Is there any known solution? If not what can I do to troubleshoot the problem? Puska

I am using armbian minimal and le potato. In tty the screen has a black bar of unusable space and cuts off about 1.5 lines at the bottom. I managed to install sway and sddm with the use of clearing the terminal. In sddm the top and probably the other sides of the screen gets cut off, It cuts off like half of the text at the top. In sway it has a blue bar at the top and cuts off the bottom like it does in tty. I don't really care about fixing sddm but I want to fix sway and tty. I have looked at sway's output command and setting the pos configuration does not do anything. I have also looked into changing the boot.cmd file to remove the overscan "100" thing but that still d…

I have Armbian on OrangePi One. It is connected to the TV via HDMI, and has a USB card with headphones connected. I installed LXDE on it via tasksel and found that only one audio device in the mixer is visible in software at a time: either hdmi if the USB card is disabled, or headphones otherwise. Is it possible to teach a microcomputer, like a desktop computer, to see multiple audio devices at the same time?

Hello everyone, I am using an Orange Pi Zero 2W with a graphical user interface (GUI). I downloaded and installed the official Orange Pi Zero 2W image. Unfortunately, I keep running into a Wi-Fi connection issue. After booting, the system repeatedly asks me to enter my Wi-Fi password. If I don’t enter it, I have no internet connection. What’s interesting is: If I disable and re-enable Wi-Fi in the network manager, it automatically reconnects to the known network without asking for the password again. Alternatively, a system reboot also restores the Wi-Fi connection automatically. I have already seen o…

Hey, I've had issues using Wireguard in Armbian. I worked out a method to install but on reinstalls this method has run into problems. I've since developed a new method but am getting a strange error as below. Can anyone interpret this and tell me if it's likely to be problematic and if so is there a way forward? I've searched the Wireguard repository and there doesn't seem to be an arch specific buildset. TIA The /var/lib/dkms/wireguard/1.0.20210219/6.1.11-rockchip64/aarch64/dkms.conf for module wireguard includes a BUILD_EXCLUSIVE directive which does not match this kernel/arch. This indicates that it should not be built. Skipped.

Hi there, I am trying to tunneling the connection between my mobile and my Armbian/OdroidX4 through `sshuttle`. It wasn't a bug it is required python and iproute2 on Termux in order to sshuttle to handle the connection.

Hello I'm trying to setup OpenCL on Armbian 22.04 Xfce. I have an Orange Pi 5 board. I observed that there is a libOpenCL.so under /usr/lib/aarch{...} but when I echo "libOpenCL.so" into /etc/OpenCL/vendors/mali.icd, clinfo still says "Number of devices: 0". By the way, on Ubuntu 22.04 Xfce, clinfo works after following the exact same steps. Anyone any ideas? Thanks !!!

First, thanks to you guys for the great work you are doing for armbian! I am quite impressed and very happy to be able to run my odroid devices (c2, m1) on the latest kernel with zfs and lxd! What I'm wondering: since there is no such thing as do-release-upgrade in armbian: What are your best practices for upgrades to avoid being forced to always install and configure everything from scratch? Since I run most everything in lxd containers and use zfs on a separate disk, upgrading is as simple as installing/compiling zfs and lxd and restoring the lxd databases, but maybe there is a better approach besides reinstalling and compiling packages?

I have connected Orangepi AI lite stick to Orange pi 4 both of this have NPU in it . I want to know how to make sure on which NPU it is running or is there any flag to set

Hi! I am using the as of this date latest armbian image Armbian 22.11 Jammy, Kernel 5.15.y, Size: 495Mb, CLI, Release date: Nov 30, 2022 for my board: https://www.armbian.com/rock64/ I am not sure if this is specifically an issue with the CLI image, or if both images are affected. I am not using a GUI. I configured a static IP address via netplan (generated and applied the config) and installed a dhcp server. The dhcp server sometimes kept failing to start on reboot. Checking the logs showed that even though the isc-dhcp-server depends on the network being configured before it tries to start, that actually systemd sometimes starts isc-dhcp-server b…

I'm not sure where to report this. I think this is a common problem across distros for arm. I had this same problem with manjaro arm a month ago. On a fresh install of armbian. 24.3 cli. Emacs 28.x is available. It is missing a lot of elpa packages because of out of date gpg keys. It cannot find elpa.gnu packages. It is, for me, completely unable to load and use my emacs configuration. Package-initialize and package-refresh-contents do not fix it. I built the current emacs from source, it's version 29.3 and that works much better.

There is a previous topic on this from 2020, but it's closed and not much action was taken except discussing workarounds. I'd like to continue this. Looking at the kernel configs in this repo, many of them have CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED=y. This does not play nicely with modern systemd (cgroups v2), breaking things like rtkit-daemon. See https://bugs.gentoo.org/569546 and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=655321. rtkit is an important part of making pulseaudio and pipewire work smoothly, as well as for many other low-latency applications. There are a few currently available workarounds, but none are ideal: 1. Linux 6.16 or later has boot ti…

Hi, so far i used armbian on Orangepi board, now i switched to Rockpi. Is there a way to pass my work with a backup from one board to another? I already have the Orangepi backup, I thought about replacing only the boot part, is that it? Can anyone tell me if there is a procedure? A thousand thanks

Hello, this is weird. With armbian 23.8.1 I can access the gpio-pins of the raspberry 4b. With (current) armbian 24.2.1 neither wiringpi (gpio -v) works nor any direct access (like echo "4" > /sys/class/gpio/export) The only difference I can find is the version of armbian. Please give me a hint on how to get gpio-access working with the current armbian. THX Edit: with raspbian it works (echo "4" > /sys/class/gpio/export and cat /sys/class/gpio/gpio4/value), so apparently I used the correct method.

OK, so it actually was cold in FL for a couple weeks and I did a power hack. I ported Java UIO to Java UIO 2. Java UIO (HawtJNI) This was the "Old School" high-performance approach. It relied on a custom C wrapper and JNI to bridge the gap. How it works: You have to write a C helper file, compile it into a shared library (.so) for on ARM architecture (armv7l, aarch64), and bundle it in your JAR. The Overhead: Every call from Java to C has a "JNI transition cost." To minimize this, you used moveJavaToNative to bulk-transfer buffers, which added complexity to the Java code. Java UIO 2 (FFM / Project Panama) T…

Background - I have a Helios64 NAS with 4 x HDDs running Armbian 25.11.2 with kernel 6.12.58. The HDDs each have a ZFS partition but the partitions aren't imported. The OS is running from an sd card and logging is to ram. Power management and spin-down on the HDDs is disabled. Despite all this *something* is causing the heads to move every second or two. iotop shows no disk activity . lsof +d /mnt/sda etc. shows no open files and fatrace shows files in /usr and /var but nothing on /dev/sda etc. So, whilst it doesn't look as if any files are being accessed the HDDs are still doing something. The question is WHA…

This article describes how I successfully configured a PWM fan on an Orange Pi 5 Max running Armbian Debian Trixie Minimal vendor 6.1.115, using the opifancontrol utility. Special thanks to Jamie Sinclair for creating and sharing the opifancontrol project with the community. I have an Orange Pi 5 Max installed in a metal case and running several Docker containers, including Frigate, Immich, Samba, and others. The case originally came with a internal 30x30x10 mm fan, which was not able to provide sufficient cooling. Under load, CPU temperatures were reaching nearly 70°C. To improve cooling, I installed an external 40x40x10 mm PWM fan that was o…

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.

I know this might get ignored, but honestly, I don’t really mind. I just want to report something I noticed a few days ago, which I initially thought was caused by my previous setup. I was running a Radxa CM5 with a Waveshare CM4 Nano-C board, using an Armbian image for the Rock 5A. This was the only way I could get it working with mainline support. I’m aware this setup is far from standard I’m essentially using the wrong image but that’s because the Radxa CM5 IO board isn’t compatible with the Waveshare Nano board. On top of that, Armbian doesn’t officially support the CM5 RPi-CM4 IO board provided by Radxa (which does work with the Waveshare Nano, but their imag…
