I have been using my OPi 5 for several months with Armbian on my NVMe ssd. I decided to shift my SSDs around, and removed the one that was in my OPi5 and put in a new one. I burned the latest Armbian 23.8 Bookworm Cinnamon dated Aug 31, 2023 using BalenaEtcher onto an SD card, put it in the OPi5, and it booted fine. I did apt update and upgrade, no problems. I ran nand-sata-install hoping to transfer the system to the ssd and it failed. My memory is fuzzy due to panic setting in, but I tried the Jameschambers process to copy the system over, and then tried to boot off the ssd card, and it failed. When I tried armbian-config it failed to update the MTD and reported no s…

Did someone else notice the the color saturation is to high on HDMI if a Video is played? Test video watch temperature of CPU and add a heatsink! May be the is an option for HDMI to change this? Especially Faces in normal TV shows are far to red. DISPLAY=:0 mpv --vo=vdpau --hwdec=vdpau --hwdec-codecs=all --fs http://ow.ly/10tB0C Olso interesting would be to know how smooth the VIDEO rans is far to slow in ma case.

Hi, 1st - thanks for your wonderful job. I really like using Armbian. I have setup a few small nanopi neo's with spotify / airplay / Bluetooth to play music via Echo-Dots with line in connected speakers. Now I would like to make this setup as stable as it can be., so I was thinking about making those SD cards read only. What I got from here - on the old kernel 3.4 there is an option - apt-get install overlayroot. Sadly I'm on the latest Debain based image - fritz@nanopineo2:~$ uname -a Linux nanopineo2 4.14.18-sunxi #24 SMP Fri Feb 9 16:24:32 CET 2018 armv7l GNU/Linux unionfs-fuse is maybe a goo…

Didn't see anything from a search of the forums, so ... on a Rock64 with Armbian, I have compiled the 8723bu driver since it is missing. However, when this driver is loaded, only 2G wifi APs are visible. I am trying to connect to a 5G wifi AP. Other devices do not have a problem connecting to this AP. The Armbian install just can't seem to see it. I see the usb wifi in iw and in iwconfig. I'm just not sure how to get the usb wifi to connect to 5G when only 2G wifi APs show up. I've tried the usb wifi in all three different USB ports, and in all cases it still can't see 5G wifi, only 2G. Is there some config file or manual command that I can issue that w…

After my last update on my radxa5-ITX, apart from the name changes of the NIC (related?), I remarked that I could not cryptroot-unlock the root partition because of dm_mod apparently missing from initramfs. To give some context, this is how I set things up some while ago and things went pretty smooth until recently. Too bad armbian does not keep the previous kernel (though I get the reason why). Inspecting the boot partition, cat config-6.1.115-vendor-rk35xx | grep DM_CRYPT CONFIG_DM_CRYPT=m the kernel seems to have been compiled with the proper option and lsinitramfs initrd.img-6.1.115-vendor-rk35xx | grep 'usr.*cryptsetup' usr/lib/aarch64-l…

Hi, I used to run a full docker environment using the Radxa Debian buster image upgraded to bullseye. Lately as the backport repo has been archived I decided to move onto Armbian as upgrading bullseye to bookworm did not boot (or seemed so...). After flashing the latest Rockpi4 image to the Rockpi4, I copied the docker configuration and files backups. I now have a akward behavior: - starting all the stacks (or containers) works fine, all seems ok - rebooting via sudo reboot provokes an endless reboot cycle which is only ended if I unplug the USB Zigbee coordinator key. Once the loop is stopped, the RockPi does not have any IPv4 address (only IPv…

Hello guys, I'm new to SBCs in general and would like to start tinkering around a bit. But am not able to find a central resource with reviews and such. So have decided to ask the question here (moderators please feel free to move the thread around) I am looking for a SBC in the 30 to 35 or upto 40$ price range with a bare minimum of the following : 1. 64bit SoC 2. Atleast 1 GB RAM (pref 2 GB) 3. Wifi on board (or are wifi dongles a better option?) 4. 1080p out by hdmi.. Preferably 4k.. I read enough to understand that manufacturers other than Raspberry are not great with OS support or optimisation.. So I am looking for something t…

I want to put BRO/Suricata as well as some threat intelligence and stuff on an all in one security router on a PI (orange - rapberry - whatever) I tried Openwrt and love the fact that LUCi comes with it and hence network admin job is easy - however installing Bro & Suricata and finding compatible hardware is a challenge (specially with the hardware thing (not able to chose many boards just because they lack support also not able to choose many usb wifi cuz they lack drivers ) I was told for SBCs i should use armbian specially being debian all my security software will run easier as well as better hardware support but I am afraid it will be heavier on my boar…

Hy i use octoprint on my orange pi. Now i need to resart and shutdown the system by octoprint. So i try shutdown -h 0 or systemctl poweroff nothing will work, cause i need to authenti. the user by password. so i tried to add the user to the sudoers... not work this is my line. i added the code at the end of the file myuser ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /sbin/shutdown

For my Orange Pi PC, I just switched from the buggy debian-image to Armbian. Armbian works fantastic, but there is one small problem with my ssh reverse tunnel. On the (old) debian system i had my script tunnel.sh: #!/bin/bash /usr/bin/autossh -p2000 -fNC -R 9000:localhost:9091 -R 5057:localhost:4949 -R 8000:localhost:8888 -R 10012:localhost:22 myusername@www.mydomain.com The remote Pi will call my gateway Pi at port 2000. Whenever i call the gateway-ip:9000 i am at port 9091 on my remote pi etc. Worked flawless. After I changed to Armbian, this mini-script for tunnel.sh works, too: #!/bin/bash /usr/bin/autossh -p2000 -fNC -R 10012:localhost:22 myusername@ww…

ls /sys/class/udc > UDC ls:write error: Device or resource busy I'm trying to get an armbian device (banana pi m2 zero and/or the orange pi zero LTS) to function as a USB client, but I can't seem to get the above step working. Any suggestions? lsof UDC returns nothing. On the RaspberryPI 4 this worked without issue

Sorry if this is the wrong place. I'm a noob to all this. I've searched the help files, Google, forum posts and can't find anything regarding a tinker board and no signal issue. I've only been able to find posts about Rasberry Pi Orange, and the solution used in those posts don't seem to apply here. I have an Asus Tinkerboard (not the S). I bought a 7" HDMI touch screen which was advertised as being Rasberry Pi compliant. 7" 800 x 480 HDMI-B TOUCHSCREEN FOR RASPBERRY PI https://www.velleman.eu/products/view/?id=439070 This screen doesn't use pins, just an HDMI port out. I've flashed different versions of Debian Stretch, Ubuntu, Debain based RetroPie imag…

Friends, tell me is it possible to get the SID on the device itself? With the article, read: http://linux-sunxi.org/SID_Register_Guide In my sun50i-h5.dtsi: soc { sid: eeprom @ 1c14000 { compatible = "allwinner, sun50i-h5-sid"; reg = <0x1c14000 0x400>; } } #: sunxi-fel sid > ERROR: Allwinner USB FEL device not found! As I understand it, this utility retrieves from a remote device connected in FEL mode. But is it possible to somehow get the SID directly on the summit device?

Hey. I have a waveshare 4.3" 480x272 screen, that I'm trying to get to work with my orange pi zero +2, or nanopi M1 plus. However, I can't get the screen to show the right resolution - that only seems possible on my raspberry pi (which I don't want to use for this project). I've been running over all the (little) info I can find, and it seems to be a general problem to get hdmi working if the screen edid is a bit flaky - is this still the case, or is it possible to get this combination of opi/nanopi to work on this display? Regards. Anders

I have been going over forum after forum trying to figure out how do this, and nothing seems to match up. I just downloaded MySQL on my new Rock64. The OS is installed on a 32GB eMMC, and I have a 1.5GB USB 3 HDD installed for my home folder and all the user data. I bought this to be set up as a LAMP server, and have installed Apache and PHP, which are working well. I haven't had any luck with MySQL though. It seems that nothing matches the documentation. All the documentation and forums say that the configuration file is located at /etc/mysql/my.cnf In that configuration file, there's supposed to be DB location settings,…

hello my name is jean philippe, i am working with most orange pi products since i bought like 1000$ worth of them from steven 2 years ago. i have the plus, the orange pi h3, and two different a20s i am willing to work in conjunction with you guys right now, i have a (99% fully working stable .img) the only thing i cant get it of the verbose what is the file with arguments on that distro???? boot.cmd cmdline.txt uEnv.txt???? i have no clue how to shut down verbose completely since theres no grub. PLEASE HELP, would be greatly appreciated. i know, this is armbian forum, but you guys dont have the HW acceleration like the other ima…

Hello, I've copied the Armbian Bionic image onto an SD card (and verified it) and put it into my new Orange Pi Zero LTS 256 MB. I already have experience with Raspberry Pis and Raspbian for a few years, so this isn't entirely new to me. While I was trying to establish a stable network connection (wired and wireless), I misinterpreted some "host not reachable" as "network failed" when instead other issues existed. In the process, I unplugged the power a few times after the device has booted up but wasn't reachable via the network. Only then I connected the serial console and investigated further. There I found out that it wasn't actually booting any…

Flashed legacy trusty server for Cubox-i onto a 16G SC card. Installed this succesfully on a Cubox-i4*4 and connected with ssh (no console, after all it is a headless server). The mount command showed /dev/mmcblk0p1 on / type ext4 parted showed one aprtition 1 size 16.0G primary ext4 (as promissed, the partition was extended to use the whole card) Now comes the disturbing bit df -h /dev/mmcblk0p1 gives nonsense. df -h / responds with /dev/root 1022M 896M used 89M free Indeed, I tried to load a GUI but it got stuck on a full partition:( Ideas where this /dev/root came from and why it was not subsumed in the grand mmcblk0p1 partition?

Hi all, I've just installed Armbian on my OPi3-lts and I'm trying to get the IR remote working (the iDroid included in the kit from aliexpress). I've followed this guide (from "Second attempt" on), using only the kernel driver without intalling lirc. Found out the protocol (nec), wrote the rc_keymap file mapping the key codes to the button names and everything seems to work fine, down to the last command (sudo ir-keytable -v -t -p nec), which correctly gives me the codes and the button names associated with them. Now, the guide says it's all and I should be able to use the remote as I use my keyboard, but... the desktop and the apps seem not to be aw…

I started seeing this happen "now and then" a couple of months ago, but over the last month it has gone to "multiple times a day". It's not always the same mirror. Frequently it's the airframes.io mirrors, this morning it was lv.auroradev.org The pattern is usually like this: Err:1 https://armbian.lv.auroradev.org/apt bookworm/main arm64 linux-libc-dev arm64 23.02.2 404 Not Found [IP: 23.186.113.5 443] E: Failed to fetch https://armbian.lv.auroradev.org/apt/pool/main/l/linux-6.1.11-sunxi64/linux-libc-dev_23.02.2_arm64.deb 404 Not Found [IP: 23.186.113.5 443] Is there a place to report these issues to get those mirrors fixed?

Hello Igor, I want to put my own stuff inside motd. I'm not sure which scripts are responsible. In /var/run/motd.dynamic there is your banana text, but this is dinamically changing. how is the best approach to exchange the motd on your distros? Regards José

I am using an Armbian (on Orange Pi Zero 512) as a print server. I can not install the printer driver Canon MF 4418 (MF4400 series). On Canon site there are drivers only for x86 and amd64, but as i understand, i need arm (or may be armhf). Can someone help?

i'm needed create software Wireless Access Point with OrangePI PC+RTL8188CU?

Hello everybody, and thank you Igor for developing, and the community for supporting amrbian, it's really a marvel and works like a charm on my Orange PC. I also apologise beforehand for my lack of experience or knowledge with linux. So, I setup my OPi PC to work as an always-on torrent box using jessie dekstop. I installed transmission on it and it works great, except one thing that causes me problems. I download and seed to torrents on a 64 gb sandisk usb flash key, and every time I reset the device, the usb key gets mounted at a new mount point. For instance, if I set up transmission to use /sandisk/downloads folder to download, it does fine, but after a reset, the os…

It says 4.13.x in nightly kernel builds but i cant still enable g_hid. In this link it says 4.12 would bring usb otg support for h3 boards. Am i wrong? If its still not supported and wont get implemented soon what should i do to implement it? I also read that g_hid should work in legacy kernel but it didnt work with lastest legacy kernel either. I am trying to get it working for a few weeks now my whole project is stopped because of this. Its would bring me joy if i could get it working. Thank you

Hi I have used Armbian quite a bit now for various projects with great success and even debugged my own hard-to-solve issues. I am considering using an H3 based board (OrangePi + 2E) to replace the cheap junk media player I use. Incidentally Armbian will run on that device, but I am not sure what the video support is like- its a RockChip RK3xxx series SoC. Now, out of the box, Armbian (Buster, Focal, etc..) video playback stutters on Full HD (720p and up) content, particularly at full screen. I understand this is because I need to install a binary blob driver for the GPU? I've done this on normal desktop PCs before running Ubuntu, which is very easy to do, h…

Hi guys, we are working on custom board based on A20, similar to Olinuxino MICRO. Our firmware is Buildroot based, with enabled Cryptodev and openssl with -DHAVE_CRYPTODEV, -DUSE_CRYPTODEV_DIGESTS. I know that we should not expect a drastic performance gain, but I wonder if this thing works at all, since I do not see any load on system level while the user space process still utilizes 100% of CPU on one core. Yes, openssl performance test reports some better numbers after "modprobe cryptodev", but not so good as other people report. I suspect that something is missing. I do not see interrupts with number assigned to crypto-engine in dts. crypto: crypto-engine@1c…

Anyone know if this is available? Apparently the Ubiquiti Unifi Controller software only works on Raspberry Pi Raspian because they have this so-called "Hard-float" version of Oracle Java. I'd rather use one of my C2s for the job but haven't had a chance to look into getting an official Oracle Java JDK installed yet. Thanks!

Hey, First: Thanks to everybody making this work. I installed armbian on a beelink x2 TV Box with the old wifi Chip, we had two of them and the Android Rom just stopped working, well it worked but the Youtube App and such Things didnt. Im trying to reuse them as little Desktop Machines with armbian. For its Hardware it runs pretty good but there is one Problem. I need a new build of smTube, the Version i get via apt-get is to old. The box plays the Videos via Kodi or with a direct Link in smPlayer well but in FireFox it decodes it over the CPU i think and then it has Problems. I also tried to install a new smTube arm deb package with Gdebi but there are some depenc…

Hi I installed following image on Banana pi M5 on emmc. BananaPi does boot up but it shows "PI" username for which I am not able to find password anywhere and also tried ssh into the machine which was also denied. Every time I installed the image same thing would happen with same username "PI" popping up every time. Would appreciate help if someone can share the password or what I am going wrong.

So, some time ago I made some custom changes to DTB to get the OV5640 camera working on a Banana Pi M2 Zero. I was successful, and made notes on the files that I changed. Now, I'm working with the same source tree, but cleaned out. So I wanted to make my changes again because I did not know about CREATE_PATCHES then. So, i built my new image, and made the changes to the dts files. But now, /dev/media0 does not show up. I have 2 boards. One with my prior image that is fully functioning (Board A), a new one that is missing /dev/media0 (Board B). First thing I did was compare the kernel configs. They are identical. For fun, I copied the kernel from…

The devil is in the details. Armbian was partially working so I started over to study the process more closely ! It seems Geek Buying is NOT the same Wifi as WiFi Chip: RTL8189 on Gear Best in the X96 Mini. iComm SV8051P is not working with Linux and actually not very good on Android 7.1.2 as delivered. HDMI Audio on 5.4 is WIP as Linux Meson discloses.

Last week I downloaded the checksum for armbian20.05.2_Orangepiplus2e_buster_current_5.4.43_desktop.img.xz and checked the checksum that came with the download. The .img checksum downloaded with the image and the checksum I ran were the same. When I check the online checksum here on armbian.com under downloads, sha, TODAY, the checksum is different. Is there any reason for me to believe that my original checksum and download may have been corrupted? I realize I can just re-download the image now, but whose to say that the one posted now is correct and not the previous one (while maybe both correct/fine)? I know that checksums can change over time,…

Hi! First of all, HELLO! I'm new here. I'm trying to install my wifi dongle Realtek RTL8188CUS that I had for my raspberry pi in my Cubieboard A20 with ARMBIAN Xenial Server Legacy and I can't do it work. Has anyone tried? Thanks!

Hi all, I'm looking for an sbc with low power consumption, but still able to run linux (arduino like solutions are somewhat unflexible, and take longer to configure). Basically it should be able to do rs232 and be able to store data to an sd card. It should be able to run approximately two weeks on batteries. Wifi/ethernet/hdmi are not required if there is a way to use a serial console (apart from the extra rs232 which is connected to our measuring device). I already own a banana pi (original) and raspberry pi zero (apart from other boards which draw much more power). Are there any boards I could check out that have significantly lower power u…

Hello everyone I need to record events using a webcam from the console via ssh connection. So I bought an orangepipc2 and a logitech c310 webcam and I started experimenting with ffmpeg and also cvlc. I need to record in HD (1280x720) with audio and minimum 10 frames per second for a duration of an hour or so and if possible in mp4 format with video in libx264 and audio in acc. Disk space is not a problem because I installed armbian (ubuntu 18.04) on an external ssd by usb. The problem is that audio and video are out of sync in cvlc and, in the case of ffmpeg, it gives me several errors and the audio is cut. I have also tried to record audio and vid…

I’m trying to use my tinkerboard to run a small 4tb nas. I have installed armbian stretch and have run armbian config, software>softy>OMV, when I hit enter the it says “loading installation info” and then the screen flashes and goes back to the softy page. Any help would be awesome, Thanks.

Hi, I have an issue that is irritating me, and I'm not sure what to do about it. So on the Helios64 page (I am also using it with the Kobol enclosure), they give you a simple command like this to use: picocom -b 1500000 /dev/ttyUSB0 This is so you can access a serial TTY without an Internet connection. My problem is that the "window size" is set back to 80x24 characters. I'm not sure why this happens. I've also noticed that it somehow sets "TERM=linux" instead of what I have in my host PC's "$TERM" which is "xterm-256color" Is this by design, or is there something strange going on that I don't understand…

hi to all how can I change the armbian logo in bootsplash? I've searched for it in this forum and saw some similarity but that not solved my problem. I enabled the bootlogo=true in /boot/armbianEnv.txt and after that the logo appears in boot instead of texts and that's fine but I want to change the logo. also in boot.cmd I found this: if test "${bootlogo}" = "true"; then setenv consoleargs "bootsplash.bootfile=bootsplash.armbian ${consoleargs}"; fi changed the "bootsplash.armbian" with some bitmap file but after doing mkimage to create boot.scr, the logo went missing and texts are back. searched in file system for "bootsplash.armbian" and found thi…

Hello Unfortunately my OrangePi PC which I used for couple of years failed and I'm looking to buy the 64-bit SBC from Pine64. Funny thing about my OrangePi PC was that there was one and only one old Armbian image version (Armbian-20.05.4-Orangepipc-focal-5.4.45.img) which ran GUI successfully out of the many other Armbian and OrangePi images I tried which helped me run it as a desktop for using Libre office and others. Unfortunately 1GB RAM was too low for Gaming lol. Thanks to the Armbian community for that. Before buying, I presume the PineA64 LTS version has a 64bit Rambus if not - I don't understand how processing speed will be bett…

Hello, In case you haven't heard about this yet, the fact that Armbian Buster Current comes with a 5.8 kernel means it suffers from this Debian bug: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=964926 which us caused by combining this kernel version (as well as future ones) with systemd built using older kernel headers. This bug is mostly harmless but it does at the very least prevent Ansible from managing services on affected systems due to 'systemctl show' exiting with a non-zero exit code. Unfortunately with the official Debian Buster kernel version being 4.19 it is unlikely that this will be fixed on their end.

Hello, hope you can help me with my issue. I have an Orange Pi Zero+ with an H5 processor. My requirement is to detect when a button is pressed, my input port is PA1 or pin 11, my pin for 3.3V is 17, I'm using the pyA20 library, have also setup this project: https://github.com/herzig/orangepi_PC_gpio_pyH5. My code is based on the read_button example (https://github.com/herzig/orangepi_PC_gpio_pyH5/blob/master/examples/read_button.py#L46). Bellow I will show the code, but the main problem is that the gpio.input() method is usually returning 0 but every few seconds it returns 1, which is only supposed to happen when button is pressed. I'm a complete newbie in this world so …

Hi all! I need to install other packages and make a custom configuration of OS. Can I do at image building time: - Remove Armbian packages - Add other packages - Save configs at location /etc/ - Setup user name + password and Bash profiles

In the past I used a lower end Sandisk's and used external flash drive with nand-sata-install to move system due to endurance. What is the status as of today? Are Sandisk Ultra A1's better than flash drives (i.e. not special "high endurance" ones). I need to ask because the installation is not easy to reach (another part of the city) and current problems may be because of flash failure (didn't get my hand on the devices yet). Any pointers will be much appreciated. PS: I found this today, very interesting read... https://www.delkin.com/technology/flash-endurance/

I used to come here some time ago and the first i always visited was the overview of supported boards. It included a photo of the board and the supported and unsupported features. Now i surfed and searched for almost an hour and can't find this or a similar page anymore. Where is that page gone? And i thought i was smart to first check out what boards are well supported before buying one. I saw this new Orange Pi "Orange Pi Zero 2W 4GB RAM + Expansion Board Development Board Allwinner H618 WiFi-BT Orange Pi Zero 2 W Single Board Computer" featuring two USB-C ports. Does anybody know whether that supports Armbian and OTG for a UVC camera and a USB-C Power supply? I do not …

Hello, this question is not armbian specific but I am dealing with it while using armbian. I have 8GB microsd card but my armbian is using just 1.5GB on it. Now I need to clone/copy this card. I use win32diskimager (on windows) but disadvantage this approach is, that it makes bytedata image file (all 8GB of the whole microsd card even with blank space) but my data have 1.5GB only. Is there any utility/software which makes image with 1.5GB only? I mean when I burn 8GB image size after that to another microsd card, it takes 5x more time to finish as if I could burn just 1.5GB image. I think it must be able to do it somehow, because armbian images has abou…

To control from terminal a remote orangepizeroplus in case of lockup, I connected the otg to the USB port of a second Opi0+ modifying a usb cable to which I disconnected the power cables (+red and -black).

Hi all, thanks in advance for taking the time to read this topic. I'm working with the Banana Pi P2-zero board, on which I successfully installed the armbian buster image (on SD card) from here: https://www.armbian.com/bananapi-m2-zero/ Note that the image is for M2-zero, not P2 zero... which by the way has pretty much the same hardware, and things work fine on SD card. But then I needed to install the whole system on the on board eMMC. Such eMMC was not visible at first, so I edited the /boot/dtb/sun8i-h2-plus-bananapi-m2-zero.dts file to include mmc2 (mmc@1c11000) and compiled it as dtb. After this, I was able to see the…

Hi.

Hi, I am trying to find a quicker way of customising my .config for eg orangepioneplus board as I do not require Bluetooth, WIFI etc. etc. So tried to put a config file ( KERNEL_CONFIGURE=yes | BRANCH=dev ) in one of these directories, but alas /home/armbian/userpatches and /home/armbian/userpatches/kernel/sunxi-dev Still failing after Reading these topics - user configurations - building armbian / Providing build configuration - build options So therefore can one explain ( quick tutorial ) how to achieve this, please?

Is it possible to use a Gert VGA 666 adapter with orange pi boards? It would be great to have a 2 Monitor System. https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=94424 Thank you for your answer.

Are there any plans to add support for the MCP7940 real-time clock? It's much cheaper than the DS1307 and mostly compatible. The biggest difference is Reg0b7 which is "Clock-Halt" in the 1307 but "STart" in the 7940. The 7940 also has some extra register bits like OSCEN which are default 0 in the 1307. I tried naively enabling the rtc-ds1307 module and it didn't work. An actual DS1307 chip worked immediately (just hot-plugging the break-out boards while executing "hwclock -rf /dev/rtc1"). The actual error I get is: "Timed out while waiting for the time to change", "The Hardware Clock registers contain values that are either invalid (e.g. 50th day o…

Hi, I'm trying to use orange Pi PC+ as router with AWUS036ACS rtl8811au wireless card. I did benchmarks on PC with ubuntu 16.04 and driver from github (8812au version 4.3.20-beta). I can achieve max throughput possible on speedtest at very close range (120Mbit). Same driver on orange pi mainline Armbian Stretch and barely can hit 10Mbit mark. Tried different drivers and default driver from kernel tree which is version 5.15 and results are the same, miserable. I have 2nd orange pi with legacy kernel, tried only one driver that I could compile there (4.2.2) and results are somehow better but still far from PC. Any ideas where this bottleneck could c…

Hello, I compiled a little GUI application using Qt for my Orangepi One, Running Armbian 5.41 (Mainline) . However, when executing I get the following error message: libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to authenticate I figured this was related to the graphics driver. However Mesa is running fine with the glxgears -info test showing up normally and rendering just fine. I didn't see anything unusual in glxinfo either. I found this https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/61078/qt-applications-dont-work-due-to-libegl and symlinked the library files, but the proposed fix is not working for me. Do you guys have any ideas?

Hi, I had Armbian based on kernel 4.19 installed on emmc. It was running pretty good for a long time but recently it was automatically upgraded to kernel 5.3.9 and started to restart while booting. I had collected a log (see attachment), It looks like it was unable to find root partition and this is most likely caused by issue with axp20x_device_probe. Is this a known issue? Is there any remedy? minicom.log

So, as the title describes, I flashed Armbian Jammy Minimal CLI to a micro SD card and booted my lepotato, and was able to setup a user and update it via apt, set a static IP, but armbian-config is not an available command. I have a armbianmonitor log uploaded here: https://paste.armbian.com/berejipusu When I try to run armbian-config, well, which doesn't work, and autocomplete for "armbain" gives me these options: armbian-add-overlay armbian-install armbianmonitor Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hello everyone. I've been struggling with the temperature of my Orange Pi Lite 2. Based on what I saw in the forums, undervolting might fix this issue. I know how to undervolt the CPU by editing script.bin, however, it seems that script.bin is deprecated and now I need to change the device tree. I looked into DTS config in armbian-config, I couldn't find any voltage related parameters. I need to edit something like the dvfs_table in script.bin. Does anyone know how I can edit the device tree in order to modify voltage values? Especially voltage-frequency values. Any help is much appreciated.

Hey there! I'm trying to create an image with Debian Bullseye using Debos and Armbian. My board is an Orange Pi PC H3. I am following this step guide to generate the image, but I'm having problems to read serial. The tutorial that I follow was created for Orange Pi Zero +2 H5, so I change the architecture for armhf. When I boot the image I don't have any file named "armbianEnv.txt". This file should be already there? Or I have to create it? Some idea about what can be the problem? Just for test I create this file with some parameters that I found, but still not working.

I got Armbian 23.8.2 Bookworm with Linux 5.10.160-legacy-rk35xx successfully running on a couple of NanoPi R6S boxes. So far so good. Now I would like to use Wifi dongles (USB sticks) that I have on these machines. They use the `ath9k_htc` kernel driver. I have used this successfully on ARM-based machines earlier. However, Armbian does not provide this module. So I need to compile it myself (either obtain the exact sources that were used in the kernel I'm currently running, so I can recompile this single module or, perhaps more realistically, start a custom tree with the Armbian patches and config, from which I can rebuild on my own). I…

Hello , I'm new to Armbian, I'm trying to create an SD image for an Olimex A13 Som card (https://www.olimex.com/Products/SOM/A13/A13-SOM-512/) + A13 Som WIfi (https: //www.olimex.com/Products/SOM/A13/A13-SOM-WIFI/open-source-hardware). After successfully executing the build and transferring the image to SD with Etcher, the boot starts correctly but hangs on Starting Kernel ... Do you have any idea how to solve the problem? Thanks in advance!

Has anyone had success getting the Marvell 88W8897 setup as a hotspot? It seems to work fine as a Supplicant, but I'm having challenges getting it to work as a hotspot. I've been trying to get the card to work as a hotspot via armbian-config without success. Does anyone have any suggestions?

So far I've been able to get just about everything running with Armbian but I just haven't got my head around routing a usb / mpci 4g modem. I clearly see it's a ttyACM0 device, I can see it's a USB connection in nmtui, ifconfig shows it as usb0 interface. I think the hardware is good and Armbian is talking to it fine. Can someone point me to a tutorial somewhere that would turn the light on for a first time try at routing data from a cellular modem? I'm using a clearfog pro but I also have an espressobin. The modem is a U-Blox MPCI-L201 and I imagine should work on either board. I'm probably just not putting the right questions to uncle googl…

Hi all. I have a Rockpro64 with u-boot flashed to SPI, and Armbian installed to NVMe drive*. When I use the HDMI port on the Rock to a standard HDMI port on a monitor, everything displays without issue.

I want to make an Armbian image with BTRFS rootfs. I did, it works. My problem is the default setup only assign 58M to the partition for /boot, leave only 18M of free space. I want to make it 150M. I had some bad experience related to such issue before - when I did an "apt upgrade" that involves building of new initrd.img file, the /boot partition is too small to allow the upgrade. So, I want to fix this issue before I build other stuffs on it. I have browse the docs.armbian.com and read couple of README under the build/ folder but find no hints.
