Hi Igor. I think I found another inadvertenttant bug in the build since the desktop was unseparated out. The new build is calling chromium instead of chromium-browser, and it's breaking. It brings up a brief pink screen. When you call it from a window it calls this image below. Otherwise it is installing desktop on the H3 just fine.

Hi, I have a Pine 64. Latest stable kernel works fine, but after update to kernel > 5.0 I don't have network. dmesg shows the next lines: Could not attach to PHY stamac_open: Cannot attach to PHY (error -19) Tried a 100 mbit switch, even that isn't a solution. Strange thing is it has worked once a month ago. Power for the board is supplied by the Euler bus. Update: update to the latest kernel (5.1.3) and now I see in in dmesg: Unsupported interface mode: rgmii-txid. Tried this solution: but it doesn't work. Thanks, Rene

I've just downloaded the latest Armbian Buster image with kernel 5. I have installed OMV via the Softy solution as well as manually via https://forum.openmediavault.org/index.php/Thread/25062-Install-OMV5-on-Debian-10-Buster/#codeLine_2_c9c4c4 which has worked previously. After the install the we bserver loads the default Nginx page, however after a reboot nothing works. Any thoughts? I'm about to try kernel 4 The same thing happens on Kernel 4. I'm wondering if there was an OMV update that broke the install...

Hello All, I installed Sonarr and found it had trouble reading from my nfs mounts, only seeing one folder, which turned out to be mono's issue. I used a snapshot of version 5.20 from the raspbian repo apt install apt-transport-https dirmngr gnupg ca-certificates apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 3FA7E0328081BFF6A14DA29AA6A19B38D3D831EF echo "deb https://download.mono-project.com/repo/debian stable-raspbianstretch/snapshots/5.20 main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mono-official-stable.list This is working fairly well for me so far and I will post back if I run into problems. Using 5.20 to avoid some of the regression and t…

Hello everyone, my wife has transitioned my family to google calendars and in an effort to keep myself up to date I built a Magic Mirror using an OP PC+. It worked beautifully in testing in standard video layout but to effectively use the screen I have mounted it rotated in a frame and this is where my problems began. Upon rotating the image in XFCE either 90 or 270 degrees video performance drops to single digit FPS. No increase in CPU utilisation so i cannot understand what the issue is. I have done a bit of googling and there is litle information and no apparent solution available. has anyone else suffered with this? …

All of the docs that I see on how to use the kernel gpio_keys refers to dts (device tree). The kernel module is present in Armbian legacy 5.20 Jessie Desktop. /lib/modules/3.4.112...../gpio_keys.ko I understand it should map gpio inputs to keystrokes. But all usage/configuration info I can find refers to entries made in Device Tree -- gpio-keys { compatible = "gpio-keys"; left-key { label = "Left key"; gpios = <&gpio0 17 0>; linux,code = <69>; /* KEY_LEFT */ }; } This refers to some other underlying hardware, but it is an example... So my question... I don't believe Armbian legacy…

Hi guys, I'm playing around with two orange Pi's , a One and a Lite, and thanks to all the good work here on the forum with good success. Both OPi's are running python programs, one reads and counts buttons, and flashes some leds, and the other reads my smart meter and puts the data on a webpage. both programs are still under construction but working. The problem I need some idea's for is that both OPi's crash after running somewhere between 1 day to 6 weeks. So now I'm looking for ways to figure out why they crash so i can start working on a fix. Both OPi's run on separate adapters for power, I've been measuring the amps and voltages but there is…

Save your words. Just give them this link Orange PI FAQ

So I tested Kodi playing different demanding video files (H256), and it works smoothly, without crashing at all. So far the most stable media center option. But yes, we have no ethernet. So I was wondering how could we load the basics drivers from the Xulong image, into the PineH6 one. So I browsed for hours (because Im not at all familiar with this android weird partitions system, and with the OS itself). First I realized both Pine H6 and OPiOnePlus use the same ethernet controller (the realtek 8211). Then I went for the schematics, to actually check if the realtek chip was connected to the H6 the same way on both boards. Which it seems to be for…

I use "Armbian_5.59_Tinkerboard_Debian_stretch_next_4.14.67". After every reboot the line for the nameserver in resolv.conf looks like this: ^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@nameserver 192.168.3.1 When I delete all ^@ chars my networks works fine.

Best regards.

Hello forumees. I am running as root on an OrangePI Zero+ which uses a H2 processor running a CL version of arrmbian 3.4.113 which works fine. I have recently obtained a SimCom SIM7600CE GSM/GPS module which has only a USB interface. I tracked down drivers for it but the Linux version must be compiled to a module which I have managed (with a number of warnings) after a couple of hiccups. Now trying to install the compiled module is resulting in error messages. I think the problem is compatability with armbian which is beyond my expertise, so I am asking for help. Below is the CL dialog of my attempts to install the module. ```````````````` root@gpsC…

On a NanoPi Neo Air I would like to force a USB-connected SDcard reader (which natively uses 4-Bit transfer) to only use 1Bit mode. Any ideas how to configure the driver / device tree to do that?

I tried to create encrypted home folders on my NanoPi R4S but for some reason the password prompt does not show up in serial console. It just times out and therefore fails. I assume that the prompt is not properly pointed to the serial console but the board's console is clearly set to serial. Tried to simply connect an USB keyboard and when the boot at the serial console pauses to enter the password this way but no idea if it has been recognized because it made no difference. Keyboard itself worked though, system rebooted on CTRL+ALT+DEL. Tried a few things like making the code { font-family: Consolas,"courier new"; color: crimson; backgr…

Hey. I'm trying to install Home Assistant through "softy" in the armbian-config tool on my nanopi neo plus 2. The process seems like it goes through, but I can't connect to the interface (ip-address:8123). Would someone be able to point me to the script that softy uses for this installation, so I can try to do the steps manually? (I wish to install with Home Assistant with "supervision", and haven't been able to do it with their guides, so now I'm trying throuhg armbian-config). Regards Anders

I managed to get my waveshare 2.8" SPI LCD (https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/2.8inch_RPi_LCD_(A)) to display console in an orangepi zero LTS board, using the DT overlay and instructions given here: My dts file has changes as explained in the comments of the attached waveshare_32b_28a_opipc2.dts file in that post.

Hey, i bought somewhere on the end of internet some board with AllWinner A10 - ARM Cortex A8 processor. Board was cheap (15$) and had info about compatibility with Armbian. Sound good deal for tests. BUT of course cant be so easy It was true, Armbian working but only version 5.24 Jessie for Lime-A10 from previous age. All newest version booting well but without working usb ports. What i figured out its a problem with device tree configuration but Armbian based on Jessie working with fex files, all newest distributions unfortunately with dts files responsible for device tree config and i dont know how to set up device tree in newer versions. After few days fighting i…

Hi everyone I Install the latest version of Armbian Debian for the TinkerBoard S but at the beginning I have the problem of seeing that the image is always distorted, it is similar to having interference, it had not happened before with other operating systems. It also sometimes turns off meaninglessly or the mouse stops working.

Hello, I'm turning my head around this problem, I have read numerous forum posts and docs but I didn't found an answer: Following https://linux-sunxi.org/GPIO, the same pin number calculation applies for sysfs and gpiod. But, for example, for PL2 it will be 11*32+2=354, or for opi3 lts there are only 255 line numbers for gpiochip1 (as per `gpioinfo gpiochip1`) :-S Pleeease tell me what am I missing !?!

Recently I installed ubuntu-desktop and switched to gdm3. This caused a lot of my shortcut names and file names to become a large amount of gibberish, so I uninstalled and switched back to lightdm. I still do not have a lot of my icons: and now armbian-config does not open through the shortcut: I can still open it with the terminal but this makes me think there are bigger issues.

I'm compiling Armbian image and even if I choose "minimal console" version I get a 1.5Gb image while the ones prebuild by you are 250Mb. What I doing wrong?

Hi All, I have a strange prob regarding Armbian on my Banana Pi. I have installed vanilla Jessie on my BaPi (1st modell with an SD, not uSD). I have also installed tvheadend, lighttpd and the kernel-nfs-server (beyond the packages already in the image). The BaPi is connected to a switch (no WiFi), and it is headless. When it starts all works as expected. But after some hours logging in via SSH stops working. The sshd itself runs, if I try to login (with pubkey auth) I can see that the connection to the sshd is successfully established, but when the shell should be started it hangs forever: debug1: kex: server->client aes128-ctr hmac-sha2-256 none debug1: kex:…

Hello, when I turn on my orangepi with armbian, it automatically logs me in and shows desktop. How can I please disable autologin and auto desktop? For example, on raspberry pi after boot I see just terminal with username and password, when I type these it logs me in and stays in terminal, and when I want dekstop environment I type startx and then I am in desktop. I would like to have the same behaviour on the orangepi (first headless after boot, I juust after then I should be able to login and choose to display desktop). Many thanks.

Hi, file names with Asian characters are displayed as "?????" in Armbian. $ sudo mount.cifs //192.168.0.200/y /media/200_y -o user=armuser $ ls -1 /media/200_y/ "??????_text.txt" "banner_????.jpg" $ cat /etc/default/locale # File generated by update-locale LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8 ##LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 ###LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 LC_ALL= LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_COLLATE=ko_KR.UTF-8 ## For your Information, in my ubuntu, there's no such a problem.

Hi to all! I am using Orange PC Plus and wanted to connect small display to it. I wanted to have display as ready device : in casing, with power etc. So I bought this one Aliexpress link It has HDMI, VGA and A/V input and for 35-45 USD only. Resolution (described) - 1024*600/800*480 Works with Raspberry Pi3 OK! But I need linux board with built-in eMMC memory. So I bought Orange PC plus. But it does not cooperate with this display in any modes, avaliable in h3disp (including 800*480). Also it doesnt work via my HDMI to VGA converter and A/V input is not compatible too.

Hello, please how can I detect if OS runs from microSD or from on board emmc? Anything like python, sh or command line command would be helpful. Many thanks.

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…

Hello all! =) Can you help me? How can i get video acceleration in Armbian 5.9 (4.20.2-sunxi64) ? I want to use RetroArch for retrogaming and Kodi for media. By default this is slowmotion.. I know I have to install drivers for graphics acceleration. Mali,Drm and something else? Is there a list of drivers that need to be installed for acceleration? And instructions to them Thank you advance!

I downloaded the Armbian_20.11.3_Odroidxu4_buster_legacy_4.14.212.img.xz and unpacked it using Keka. The integrity check I did using Quick-Hash and the Armbian_20.11.3_Odroidxu4_buster_legacy_4.14.212.img.xz.sha file provided together with the download file. As this sha file was for the compressed xz file, the integrity check was also done on the compressed image. How to check integrity on the image itself? Where do I find an sha file for the image?

I could set up the `armbian/build` repository to compile the kernel for my board. I would like to compile an out-of-tree kernel module on the host machine and copy it to the target machine. I understand that my target machine (Nano Pi Neo Air) has enough resource to compile the module but I just want to try this out.

I am just looking for a working image that would have the 8821CU working. I've been able to make it work on Ordoid HC-4, but on N2+, it didn't work. Also, my N2 setup on armbian had some problem. I launched sudo armbian-config, tried to install headers and firmware, but I couldn't. It didn't provide any error message, it just showed the loading bar and quitted quickly (as if it completed). Then I tried Nigthly and I was able to download headers and firmware, but still wasn't able to get 8821CU working (now thinking about it, I don't recall checking out if it was detected from lsusb... I'm not entirely sure). Then I went back to stable and now I'm no longer able to bo…

That's all, really. I appreciate the amount and quality of work that the leaders here generously share with the community. I donated an amount that would buy 6 bottles of my preferred local brew, hoping that the project's accountants will allow at least that tiny drop in the total donation pool to be used to celebrate a little. It's well-earned!

I'm trying to use an Orange Pi Pc Plus v1.1. The disk images for it provided by Orange Pi are worth nothing, having repositories that do not work. As an alternative I've been looking at Armbian, and decided to try the images supplied here: https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-pc-plus/ . I had a problem with both: -The Ubuntu image always reboot as soon as the gui loads. I don't think it power related, since I'm using a 3A power supply and that's more than what is recommended. -The Debian image doesn't allow me to connect to the internet. I don't have the option to use a cable and the WiFi network I have access to uses PEAP, and I found no way to configure …

Trouble setting up lvm2. vgcreate wrong because drive order is not now the plugin order on hub according to dmeg. interchanged cables vs ports for out of order discovery and rebooted but problem unchanged ack dmesg.

Hi guys, I backed up my sd content on a 32GB card using dd command with count argument. So I ended up with a 8GB image file to move to a 16GB card. How can I expand the filesystem on the 16GB card to fit its size after putting the 8GB image on it? Thanks!

After making some changes to my Armbian setup on the Odroid xu4, I decided to use the Win32DiskImager tool on my Win10 machine to make a bootable image from the microSD card. However, I've now tried two different micro sd cards (a Samsung and a Sandisk) for the backup, but Win10 tells me that it doesn't recognize the file system. It asks me if I want to format the cards. Obviously I don't, because neither would be usable my Odroid xu4. Any idea why I can't backup these Armbian xenial images? Is there a comparable tool on Linux (I have Fedora on another machine) that can make the backup? (I pulled this issue from another thread where it really didn't belong.) Thanks…

I bought that DAC to my OPi - I tought it will be easier. I've configure PCM and TWI in FEX file (IIS works perfect on oscilloscope). Also I've made mods on DAC's board - Raspberry has PCM at other pins. But SPDIF still not working. I suppose, that WM8804 is in software mode, so I have to config it via IIC. My 3.4.113 Armbian doesn't have driver for that DAC. What can I do?

I reflashed the sd after some issues and while firstrun script connected me to service provider wifi without error, the ethernet (currently connected to win11 enterprise) doesn't get an IP.

Hi all, In armbian-config I have freeze on firmware. I can see that armbian-firmware-full is kept back. Still my kernel got updated. Kind of an issue as I use zfs (backports) on my omv install and I need to reinstall them to get the module recreated... Now I have a few questions: Is it because I have only armbian-firmware-full held back, and apt works in my case maybe with armbian-firmware? (Or do I misinterpret the list that says upgradable on the full) Or do I have to hold the specific versioned packages and will the armbian-firmware (meta?) package hold not work on the ones I have installed and get upgraded nonetheless? Tia

Hello all, Orange Pi 5b v1.1 16GB/256GB # Wi-Fi 6 and WPA3 are not available options in current Debian Cinnamon release. # OP 5b does have these features so comparability isn't an issue. # Works fine with Orange Pi images. # All steps given on download page were taken.

Hi! I just flashed Armbian 24.11.1 Bookworm Minimal / IOT onto my Odroid HC1 SD-Card. The download page states: "For HC1 and HC2 we provide specially optimized config which has to be applied manually. This results in shorter boot time and lower consumption. Edit /boot/armbianEnv.txt and add: board_name=xu4 # or xu3, xu3, hc1" However there is no /boot/armbianEnv.txt. Should I just run the system as is or do I have to modify something to have it run optimally? Should I just create the file and add line? Thx! Björn

I have been running the 5.03 image provided, and it works amazingly, many thanks to igorpec and tkaiser. Now that the 5.04 image is ready, is there an easy way (via ssh?) to update my system? Obviously I could copy the image to an sd card and run it that way, but the system is running so well (on external hard drive and running plex server) that I'm reluctant to upset it all. Many thanks

Hi there i just receive this promissing board. I update the armbian build tree and it appears on WIP. I tried to build the image but it fails on kernel building (a missing .config file), how can i help you to quick test the board?

Hi, I downloadded the latest debian_stretch_next for OPZ+2 H5. Yes, I know it's experimental and not production-grade, I just want to report the issue. The problem is that apt-get (dpkg-deb) fails to decompress deb archives during the upgrade procedure. Tried it on a clean install multiple times on different microSDs. Are the packages really corrupted or is there something wrong with the image? Error log in the attachments P.S.: ubuntu_xenial_next randomly panics during apt update. h5.txt

Hi After doing a clean install to SD card of armbian 5.3 Ubuntu Xenial, I see multiple failures to install packages like Docker and Gitlab via apt-get. In both instances, I follow instructions as per the official pages, but when I try to do the installation, apt-get will report that "E: Package 'docker-ce' has no installation candidate" for example, even though it is present searching in the cache. Am I doing something wrong - perhaps I need another repository source?

Hello On the bananapi forum I noticed Igor's post (2018/08/22) that is for download image for bananapi m2 ultra. Support is not provided. I have a question about the sound device. This one directly from the SOC R40 is not supported and no one is working on it as. I spied this in the matrix for allwinner. But I use an external sound card on usb https://www.hardkernel.com/main/products/prdt_info.php?g_code=G141629380416. It works with every kernel and single board. And here in the case of the 4.18 kernel and bananapi m2 ultra, there are problems with getting connected to the pulseaudio server; which does not work at all. Is there a chance that this will be corrected.…

I'm trying to compile Qt5 on my system, following this guide, got the "E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list" message.

Hello; on OrangePi Zero LTS I have completely stupid values for CPU temperature. They were all reasonable for pre-LTS boards. I have read somewhere that this is a known bug. A kernel patch is probably available, but even if it's the case,I can not update my kernel. Where can I find the algorythm to compensate the value ? It's easier for me to fix the issue in userland code, rather than updating kernel. How can I distinguish between pre-LTS and LTS boards ? Maybe MAC address for LTS are always in a given range ? I have a legacy board with MAC 12:42:98:f9:c8:XX, and a LTS with 12:42:3a:63:04:XX (unfortunately the LTS has a lower MAC :/ does not seem chronologica…

Hello. I am wondering if anyone here has Xenomai working for Amlogic platforms? I'm particularly interested in applying Xenomai to Le Potato/Sweat Potato. According to them, Xenomai is current and working for the Amlogic S905X3 (Odroid C4), though I have failed to find any source, patches, or images for that board. As far as I can tell, aside from some minor performance improvements here and there, the Odroid C4's SoC layout is very comparable to what the Potato boards have. So I only expect minor changes, if anything, to go from that SoC to the Potato's SoC. Xenomai's own guide to porting the dovetail interface is pretty good; I'll do that if I have too. I…

Hello! This thread here: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/3728-varlog-varloghdd/ triggered the question in me how I could extend the log2ram. My problem is the following: I have installed syncthing. The default in armbian runs it as root - which is not recommended for syncthing, see here: https://forum.syncthing.net/t/running-syncthing-as-root/6316! So I downgraded the syncthing daemon to a standard user account "syncthing". In order to enable a non-root user to write logfiles it's common practice to create a subdir /var/log/syncthing/ and give it write rights for syncthing. This works, however my logfiles stay completely empty! Never…

Hi there. More than a year ago i started a project on this CPU and mainly succeeded with Nanopc-T4 board, old Armbian (5.95/4.4.179) and a custom DTB. The hardware project included the SBC and a Chinese TFT dashboard-style display panel (thus - MIPI/DSI, as I could not find the same for LVDS). Mainly using the poke-and-peek method I collected the way to mod the DTS so the DSI port is active, and the display worked like a charm. Mostly I pasted the DSI part from OrangePi DTS. I must admit that that turned out to be pure luck. Because once I moved (after big pause) to the SOM and self-designed carrier board (identical in USB, SSD, MMC, video section to Friend…

Hi! I have Orange Pi Pc Plus and Armbian based on Linux 5.8.11-trunk which successfully loads with any U-Boot taken from official Armbian distro. However I need to do minor changes in U-Boot KConfig (Allow store env vars in ext4). For that purposes I cloned U-Boot from its GitHub repo and build it. make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- orangepi_pc_plus_defconfig make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- This make me a u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin file which I transferred to my SD card. The U-BOOT loading step passes well, and I've seen "Starting kernel ..." However kernel doesn't start. I've set VERBOSITY=7 in armbianEnv.txt and seen that kernel load…
