So I'm trying to modify a certain Mycroft skill (python) to be able to play local news. Here is the commit: https://github.com/marksev1/mycroft-core/commit/164c7207374131ece23a8ddf40c7a7981f3c7084 And this python script uses mpg123 to play the mp3 from the url. 1.) If I play the mp3 in the url from the terminal normally it plays every time. 2.) If I'd try to play it from that python script it only randomly plays and in the meantime i get errors regarding jack.

Hello. I want to autostart Jivelite. I can do this with /root/jivelite/bin/jivelite But I want this start on power on. How to do this?

Hello. I've received a SATA to USB 3.0 adapter from the Pine64 store. The problem is than the adapter is not fully SAT compliant, so hdparm doesn't work with it. It is described better in this post. And there's an updated firmware for the JMS578 chip which fixes this issue. However, it was made for another device (Odroid HC1), not the device I have. Is it safe to use this firmware in my adapter? Or maybe there's even more fresh firmware exists for JMS578 chips?

I followed instructions here to expose Jupyter notebook over LAN , which had previously worked on Raspbian. However, on Armbian the browser returns ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT. The client is win11. To the best of my knowledge, no firewall (iptables or nftables) is installed. Many thanks for any help Joe ETA: local loopback via lynx (at given IP, not localhost) connects without error

So I downloaded Armbian_20.02.1_Orangepione_buster_current_5.4.20_desktop and I boot it up in my Orange PI PC and it started very well, there is one issue, I noticed that just one USB port is working, so I can only work with a mouse or a keyboard (It sounds dumb I know), so do you have any solution for that? Also I would like to know if a wifi dongle can work with this image.

K-worker takes 10-20 % of one cpu core with later kernels. Does the 4.17 kernel still have this problem? Or is bionic a solution?

There is a topic in allwinner subforum about the instability of the kernel 4.14.18 on some allwinner devices. I got that stability issues on my banana pi m1, and notice that the last kernel available on armbian still the 4.14.18. Today I also run apt upgrade on raspberry pi 3 and it installed the kernel 4.14.30 that stop the ipsec vpn working, the same as in 4.14.18 used on armbian. I feel some frustration on the latest kernel updates, and wondering if anyone have some info about the next kernel update that solve this issues. Do you advise me to change to nightly builds to get a new kernel to test?

Did anyone get kernel 4.14 running on any H2+? If yes, can you submit a complete boot log?

Hello. I need kernel 4.15.0-88 on Orangepi PC. I used "apt-get install linux-generic" to install kernel 4.15.0-88. After reboot Orangepi does not boot. What is wrong?

Long story short: Espressobin v7 1GB Armbian (Ubuntu Bionic 18.04) Kernel Mainline 5.4-rc4 (with custom userpatch (compiles fine)) U-Boot 2018.03-devel-18.12.3-gc9aa92c-armbian (Feb 20 2019 - 09:45:04 +0100) Without my Atheros AR9380 chipset (ath9k) wifi card inserted into the mPCIe, boots fine into Ubuntu from SD. With Atheros AR9380 chipset (ath9k) wifi card inserted into mPCIe I get a kernel hang (see below), I'm assuming it's because I'm using: U-Boot 2018.03-devel-18.12.3-gc9aa92c-armbian (Feb 20 2019 - 09:45:04 +0100) But according to this: https://docs.armbian.com/Hardware_Marvell/, I should be using U-Boot v2019.04-rc4 However,…

I'm kinda new here, and lets first say thank you for Armbian, it has kinda saved me from having to do a lot more work than I have had to, to get my Orange Pi 5 Plus to a state where it's really a pretty cool little test/experimental system... BUT, I wondered... since many of these devices have accessible PCIe in one form or another, and the Mali GPU is a bit of a blocker... Perhaps it would be good to build the kernel with the modules for open source GPUs for Mesa... AMDGPU, XE, and i915.. Currently I'm in this position... I know I could clone the project from GIT, and build my own kernel, but this seems like an obvious next step and I wonder how many other people would …

hi all, would love to run 'mainline' kernel on some of the boards. Armbian does provide 'choice' today for most/many Orange boards as well as NanoPI ... tu build the image with mainline/4.9 kernel. my needs are not too complex a) Ethernet USB to drive USB DAC ... Is there anyone on a forum who has tried recent 4.9-rc or maybe even 4.8 and it worked well and if yes which boards did you use ? I am running Odroid-C2 happily with Armbian and 3.14.79 kernel but some of the very old bugs have been fixed later on (kernel bugs) and am looking for a board that might run recent kernel well (enough). Thank you !

Hello, I have questions related with overlay. I'm using Radxa Zero 3W and in the /boot/armbianEnv.txt it has overlay_prefix=rk35xx. I want to use this overlay /boot/dtb/rockchip/overlay/radxa-zero3-disabled-wireless.dtbo. If I cat /boot/boot.cmd it read the overlays with this line ${overlay_prefix}-${overlay_file}.dtbo. It means if I add overlays=disabled-wireless in /boot/armbianEnv.txt, it will not find the dtbo right? So my questions are, 1. Can I manually edit the overlay_prefix to radxa-zero3? 2. If can then will that has impact on the feature, eg kernel upgrade or anything?

Not sure exactly where to post this, or how to ask it, but here goes... In the 'olden days' of my Linux adventures, compiling one's own kernel was standard practice. Thankfully, now many years later, I have become content with the 'standard' kernels (e.g. Debian) that are available to me on my x86 computers. Now, enter the world of ARM-based computing, and the possible return of self-compiled kernels. In my specific case, I am interested in using Pi-like devices to run a GPS-based time server with the additional accuracy of PPS. From my understanding, there are two optional-but-useful changes that would be required to maximal accuracy: - turnin…

I am using Cubietruck with Armbian 5:04 Debian Jessie 3.4.110 with Asterisk 13 and Dahdi 2:10 with Amfeltec Piranha USB - FXO. Kernel Panic occurs constantly.

Good morning I am using a tinkerboard S on Armbian Stretch. I would like to backup using rsync / rsnapshot to a remote nfs share. For the nfs server I tried an rpi3 on raspbian and on armbian omv4. The setup works, but on the actual job, copying a few GB, I get a kernel panic on the Tinkerboard Client everytime. The same jobs works flawlessly to local attached usb storage on the Tinkerboard. http://ix.io/1wJT Thanks for any input und happy Holidays! Sebastian

Hi everyone, I'm trying to get armbian running on an A20 based board. Been through the wikis (armbian and sunxi-linux) but I get a problem that is hard to figure out (for me).

apt upgrade updated the kernel of Banana pro, according to symlinks in /boot from Updated 4.9.0-7 to 4.9.0-8. Now I only get "Starting Linux", which means that output is send to serial console not tty from what I read. I read that I'd have edit uEnv.txt in order to solve the console issue and continue debugging the issue, but I cannot find this file anywhere on the partition. I tried to revert boot.scr but this did not change anything. I probably could revert to the old kernel by changing the symlinks as well, but I would rather like to use the new kernel....

I am new to this scene and I was just wondering what the difference is between Sid and Kinetic...

I had boards like Asus TinkerBoard or others with AMLogic chips that have the hardware support but lack the software part. Does Armbian have support for some SBCs with "true" video acceleration for linux? (aka vendor is not an asshole that doesn't share the required drivers to use the features it sells?).

I recently built Armbian 21.08.0-trunk Focal with Linux 5.10.34-sunxi. I want to compile kodi on this new version but I couldn't find any information to make it work properly. Yet I have read on many posts that say it is possible but without a howto it is difficult. Any lead is welcome. Thank you

Hi forum, I want to try out KVM virtualization since I found out that Odroid HC-1 (=Odroid XU4) does in fact support hardware virtualization and should therefore have a good performance. (Is this true, has someone already done this and can confirm?) In the past I have worked with other virtualization software but this would be my first time to use kvm. Not long ago I started a server projet which works very very well and serves all my needs. The little board is so efficient indeed that I got more than 1GB of unused RAM and also a lot of unused performance. Therefore I wondered whether I could safely use the board to virtualize an enviro…

Just installed Armbian on a Rock Pi4 to run OMV as a nas. I have a desktop installed. Install went OK but I have a weird problem, the menu has a different language for some items. Items in the main menu that have sub-groups have the other language, not sure what it is, possibly Cyrillic, but the sub-groups are in English. So, for instance, under accessorioes, accessories is not english but everything in its pop-up menu is. I've set the locale and language to GB, I'm in the UK but the menu doesn';t change.

Hello everyone! I tried to enable cedrus264 encoder/decoder on my old OrangePI Lite 2 (revision 1 if I am right). I used stulluk's repository as the base to patch the last FFMpeg revision and to add cedrus264 encoder using the new FFMpeg API. The result is built and tested. Unfortunately, I have had no success: the encoder says: ffmpeg -f video4linux2 -input_format mjpeg -video_size 1280x720 -i /dev/video1 -c:v cedrus264 -pix_fmt nv12 -f mp4 video.mp4 ffmpeg version N-103904-gb2538ce578 Copyright (c) 2000-2021 the FFmpeg developers built with clang version 12.0.1 (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.git fed41342a82f5a3a9201819a82bf7a48313e296…

Hi, after apt upgrade, armbian-zsh package is upgraded and breaks ZShell on Armbian Focal Desktop. During initial setup of Armbian on Odroid C4, zsh has been selected as default shell. After recent upgrade of armbian-zsh package, shell is switched back to bash w/o notice. Unfortunately, armbian-config is not able to switch between shells, so I am stuck with bash and cannot return to zsh. Is there a way to switch between the shells manually and enable some kind of debug log to see what is going wrong switching shells? BTW: Switching between bash and zsh on a clean recent Armbian Focal Desktop installation is also not possible. So th…

Hello, I would like to know if it's possible to put a mainline uboot with ethernet, usb support and lunch the old legacy kernel with it? I need it to be able to boot remotely (tftp) or from usb to make backup, restore without remove sdcard or lunch a recovery mode remotely by lora and a little uC speaking on uart of OPI. With mainline uboot it's easy to lunch openwrt on a ramdisk without mounting sdcard. If i can do the same (mainline uboot) with legacy kernel, i m happy. Thanks

Is anyone know how to set HDMI and LCD simultaneously on mainline kernel? We use a 3.5" LCD for which we made a patch (see enclosed). Now I'd like to have both HDMI and LCD showing the same framebuffer. Currently HDMI is only showing the console while signal is OK on LCD. Any hint would be appreciated. u-boot-sunxi-next.patch kernel-sunxi-next.patch

I’m using the Pine64 2GB Kickstarter’s board with the official LCD, running Armbian 5.25 Pine64 Debian (Jessie) 3.10.104 image. Everything works fine, display in terminal only and touch screen with the desktop. Now I would like to upgrade to the latest stable Armbian version (which on download page is 5.83). However now I can’t enable the LCD, although the download page says: It was a couple years back, I don’t remember exactly, but seems that was the same way I’ve used to enable the screen in old 5.25 Armbian. I’m no Linux kernel developer, but searching through the forum on the topic I found several mentions of “kernel recompile” - is there no other ways …

Hi, First post here. I'm fairly new with Armbian. I have a LibreComputer Le Potato that I want to use for Home Assistant. To avoid all the hassle of setting up Home Assistant with docker, I used the Armbian imager to install the Armbian 26.2.1 Home Assistant on an SD card. Once the SD card was flashed, I put it into the Le Potato board. The board starts up fine, asks for the root password, creates a new user and so on. Later on, the Preparing Home Assistant Supervised window appears. However, after the first round to 100% I get a "RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument" on the screen. The preparation goes on and on, moving the progress bar ove…

Hello, I have a 7 in lcd touchscreen that I would like to use with my 'le potato' board. I have begun using Armbian Le Potato Debian Stretch. I would like to get this working and would explore many options but when it breaks down i have: utilized putty to ssh into my 'le potato' with ethernet on my main router and typed in fbset to reveal... putty ssh screenshot I was curious about other possible options in Armbian like utilizing a config file or converting a .bin file to fex and changing the values. However, I have had no luck in utilizing an hdmi touchscreen besides maintaining usb power and flickering. Would anyone have a method of touchs…

Not sure if this is beginner or advanced, so I guess I'll start here. I have a "le potato" I recently bought. Getting it working has been a nightmare, but I'm almost there. Right now my project is to get a 32x64 RGB matrix working using an adafruit hat. I got Armbian 22.02.1 Focal running on it, and I'm using the gpiod library. I've had to write my own access library, but I've almost got it working, translating the pin labels ("7J1 Header Pin15") to the appropriate GPIO/offset values for use with gpiod. Except for exactly one. I try to use request_line on GPIO 22 (chip 0, offset 10) and it gives me an invalid argument. Doesn't do t…

Hello I have a working armbian image working well on mi "LePotato", but now I need to use the SPI interface to communicate with a sensor, however I see no spi on /dev/. I read the official images have spi support here , I tried the Ubuntu image and it is working. Is there any way to enable it inArmbian? I read the documentation in https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Allwinner_overlays/ , where points to use custom overlays with .dts files. I see the .dts overlay files used in the Ubuntu image are in github here, however when I try to use armbian-add-overlay I get the message "armbian Overlays are not supported on Meson64 based boards". I am not an expert…

instaled today this last version of armbian (4.14) and when trying to install "libmysqlclient-dev" i have the follow message: "Package libmysqlclient-dev is not avaliable, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only avaliable from another source. E: package 'libmysqlclient-dev' has no installation candidate" What shoolud i do? Cant found older armbian versions... Will armbian use libmysqlclient-dev again? I really need to use this lib, always have used before... thx for any assist!

Hi all I am new to V3s dev. I am creating a small computer based on the lichee pi zero. I am trying to get the best option to add a keyboard. Would you suggest me to design an I2C keyboard , or will a classicac usb keyboard work out of the box ? Building a usb keyboard based on an atmega32u4 microcontroler would be very simple.

According to FriendlyARM the soon available pcDuino4 Nano is a 100 percent compatible variant of NanoPi M1: http://www.cnx-software.com/2016/09/13/20-pcduino4-nano-is-yet-another-allwinner-h3-development-board-sort-of/#comment-531770 In case you want to run Armbian on your pcDuino4 Nano please choose the OS images for M1: http://www.armbian.com/nanopi-m1/ (the sole purpose of this thread is to feed our forum search and external search engines. No need to really discuss this hardware @Igor: As soon as the first user confirms Armbian works you could add IMO a download page similar to the one for Orange Pi+ 2 )

I have a Banana Pi mk1 that I'm trying to add a usb wifi adapter to so it can run klipper wirelessly. I'm still relatively new to linux and I'm having trouble getting it set up. "lsusb" shows that the wifi dongle is connected and is reading, and I copied the appropriate .bin file to /lib/firmware/mediatek. I can't get NetworkManger to show any wireless devices and I'm stuck. I've tried "nmcli device show" and it will only display my ethernet connection.

So I was trying to compile a wifi driver for a somewhat new usb wifi device and it breaks during compilation because it expects a directory named /usr/src/<linux-headers>/arch/aarch64 but on NanoPi NEO3 the directory is named (on NanoPI R4S is the same case btw) /usr/src/<linux-headers>/arch/arm64 In order to make it work, I created a symlink under the "arch" directory called "aarch64" pointing to "arm64" and I was able to compile it. Here is what happens when I try to compile it without the symlink: pablo@callampa:~/repos/github.com/morrownr/rtl8852cu-20240510$ make clean cd phl ; rm -fr */*/*/*/*.mod.c */*/*/*/*.mod */*/*/*…

In the newest image "Armbian_21.02.1_Rockpro64_focal_current_5.10.12_desktop.img" I downloaded the "Armbian config" the Source download choice box does not have the version "5.10.12" as a choice. The "headers" option does download the proper version. How do I get the source for it?

Hi, Im trying to install a driver for a usb wifi dongle. Im getting the error below. Can I compile the driver with the older linux-header? Is there somewhere where I can get the current linux-headers? I tried adding --kernelsourcedir but it keeps asking for the same version. I used armbian-config to install the headers and source Kernel upgrades are frozen due to hardware

At 19:54:55 kernel crash happens. That for some reason forces system to change time to Aug 24 1978. systemd reacts to that situation strangely, which puts system under unresponsive state, like infinite loop, potentially causing 100% cpu occupation (this is guess now) The printouts "Aug 24 07:45:10 ptc_lab_collab3_node17 systemd[20635]: Time has been changed" follows many times per second until node is rebooted manually.

Hello, I need to install linux-headers, but the old version is in the repository. Where can I find the current version(5.99)?

Hi everybody: I'm having problems to compile a custom user overlay on ARMBIAN 5.38 stable Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) 4.14.18-sunxi. I tried to install linux-headers-dev-sun8i like said on https://www.armbian.com/kernel/, but i receive the folowwing error: Kernel headers are not installed properly. Please install the kernel headers package so, my one option is to install linux-headers-next-sunxi, but as i'm using the stable version the compiled custom user overlay only works if i switch to nigtghly automated builds using armbian-config tool. all help will be welcome. Regards, Mauricio F.

Hi. Does anyone have the deb package of the linux-headers-3.4.113-sun8i.deb? There isnt in the repository anymore. Kind regards.
