Hello, I am new on the embedded system. I am using Orange Pi zero and I am having stuff with wlan configuration. I want to run the static ip for wifi on the board and reconnect after every time rebooting How I do that? I use 2 files below The eth0 works fine with this setup otherwise the wlan not active even though I used ifconfig wlan0 up but I using ifconfig wlan0 down, it got the static ip like the configuration file then I can't turn on or off using ifconfig up/down one more time Anyone help me? Thanks a lot!

Dear colleagues! I think many of us are trying to use SBC boards with Armbian as server, control units etc. How do you handle instant power OFF, due to power loss, for example. I am thinking about small UPS development, it will contain battery for 30 seconds of Orange Pi Pc+ operation and set Orange Pi I/O as signal for correct shutdown. But is it actually needed? I keep switching my Orange power OFF from AC adapter instead of shutting down for 1 year and still no problem there.

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.

Installing Armbian on Beelink X2 just to play with. Installs but don't know answer to privateuser@beelinkx2:~"$ __________? What's the answer. I had Arm on this a few years ago and removed it. But stuck on install. The line says... The command could not be located because 'usr/sbin' is not included in the PATH environment variable. This is most likely caused by the lack of administrative privileges associated with your user account. ???????

I am trying to remove a USB DBV-T receiver from the craptop to a less noisy Orange PI Zero (OPI0). I had to compile tvheadend and some modules but when I playback video I noticed that the output stalls (using the Ethernet, not the crappy WiFi). After checking a lot of things, I noticed that CPU usage was high (because of something else) so I bumped the governor up to performance from on demand. I stopped everything and retested by switching between ondemand and performance governors every 30 seconds. During the 30 seconds I noticied continuity errors only during the 30 seconds of ondemand. Is there a problem with the ondemand governor? …

Hey guys, one of my 2x OPI3 Allwinner H6 board wont boot from the micro SD card. That rather decrease me to a nowinner instead of an allwinner. But joking apart The red LED over the SD card is enlighted when all cables like keyboard, mouse, HDMI and ethernet are cable-connected. The red LED from the power is only a few seconds red and is switching to green, then the board boots to the pre installed Android.7 OS. The SD card will not be detected. When Android is up, there is a point called "local" at the bottom of the screen When I open "local" I can see "Local Memory" that possibly should be the SD card, Network Neighborhood (CIFS…

Hi guys, the history before: I ordered 2x OrangePi3 and got them at 29/07/2019. The 1st one I've unpacked could not be flashed to another Operating System. Neither the images of the developer worked nor the armbian. I figured out, that the HDMI port and the SD card reader is buggy at that 1st device. Today I unpacked the 2nd OrangePI3 and armbian booted easily and rapidly into the SD card OS. I was able to flash the eMMC with armbian and I am happy, but not with the 1st one of OPI3. I hope that the manufacturer in china will exchange the buggy OPI3 for a working other one. To cut a long story short, the a…

Hello, I have Banana Pi R2 with armbian bionic. Have two wlan cards both USB, both works. But earlier when I used openwrt on x86 my both wlan and lan were bridged and had one IP - which was router IP. Here with armbian wlan hotspot get other IP than armbian itself. Is there any way to change it to bridge? Or best practices is to leave it as is? regards, Maciek

I used armbian-config to install remote desktop service on an Odroid C2. Works great. When I add a user via command line (adduser), when they log in they get messages for authentication for network services. I also note it doesn't show the XFCE splash screens like the original user does. It can't browse anything on the wifi network but it can get through on the ethernet network. I assume I haven't added the user to the proper groups - can someone tell me what groups, or if I'm barking up the wrong tree?

Hi, I'm the new guy and I started use orange pi boards so go straight to the problem: I'm trying to turn my orange pi plus board into a fully function cd player.I have done the code. So when I try to connect the USB cd drive to the board and type:"ls /dev/cdrom" And it shown "ls: cannot access '/dev/cdrom': No such file or directory" that happened to "sr0" too. I don't know how to solve this Please help me.Thanks for reading this

Hi, I'm not sure if Debian mainline supports this, but I can't get TV out on this board working after it starts the kernel. The boot loader shows up, but as soon as the message "starting kernel" or something, pops up, the signal cuts out. I've tried changing the boot.cmd, but it doesn't make much difference. I've seen suggestions to break into the u-boot console, but the keyboard doesn't work there. I'm afraid it works only in serial mode. Any ideas? Thanks!

Good evening All. I was wondering what is the best method to use an Armbian sd card born for an H3 based board on another board with the same SoC, e.g. Orange Pi 2 image on Orange Pi Lite. With old 3.x kernel it was super easy, just replace the fex file and that's it. Overlays confuse me a fair bit, and the best method I found until now is to specify in armbianEnv.txt the row fdtfile=sun8i-h3-orangepi-lite.dtb to use a sdcard loaded with an Orange Pi 2 image in my Orange Pi Lite. But I cannot find where the board is defined, could anyone point me in the right direction? Best Regards. Christian

I'm running Armbian buster on an Orange Pi PC plus single board computer. In Armbian Stretch I used to be able to use the analogue output in stereo mode so I could use this sbc as a music player, but after upgrading to Buster pavucontrol only gives me the following option for analogue sound output (the other Built-in audio source is HDMI audio wich works fine in stereo mode but I'm not using): I would highly appreciate if someone could help me fix this issue. I have already tried reinstalling pulseaudio and copying the configuration files from the previous Stretch installation, but didn't have any luck with that.

A while back, I noticed that Armbian was compatible with this Ugreen GbE adapter. As I purchase on eBay rather than Amazon, I found the above one plus this adapter, which has the same AX88179 chipset plus a built-in 3-port USB3-Hub. So I decided to try it and see if it worked with Armbian and report back here. (I'm using the EspressoBIN for this and Ubuntu Bionic 4.19.56). These are my results: Straight out-of-the-box, I can see it using LSUSB, but it does not plug-and-play-work. After struggling and attempting to get the network manager to do something about it, I added this line to /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules: SUBSY…

Hey guys, I see the HDMI audio is not supported in the status matrix. Do you know what is missing exactly? I read it predepends on DRM driver, do you know which part is missing? I read in #linux-sunxi IRC history that there are some patches for HDMI audio for H3 H6 H64. What about A20 ? Is there any patches available?

Currently I have a Tinkerboard S and due to lack of USB WiFi support (Tinkerboard only has 2.4ghz, but 5ghz is necessary), I need another OS or SBC. Support for CSI camera is also required. I've installed Armbian on TinkerBoard and read a couple of threads on this forum. It looks like there is no CSI support for the Tinkerboard and there is no CSI camera support coming (couldn't get the camera to work on Armbian). The Rockchip on the Tinkerboard has the advantage of H264 encoding and very useful. There are other SBC boards with dual band and Rockchip (different Rockchip than the Tinkerboard), like the RockPi or the RockPro, but I can't really find out if the C…

Hello everyone. We have checked the forum extensively but have not found a good answer to our problem. Our system is based on a Orange Pi Zero Plus (512 MB), and it is running nicely. However, after some time, (10 - 15 days from the last boot) or /tmp directory gets full and most of the system is not operational. Only solution we have found for the moment is rebooting the system. This is the output of df -h in one of our systems which only shows 7% usage. This usage figure increases day by day. Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on udev 174M 0 174M 0% /dev tmpfs 49M 5…

So using the old sysfs (/sys/class/gpio/) interface, you "export" a gpio by spitting the gpio number into /sys/class/gpio/export. The GPIO number depends on the board and relevant documentation. Having once found that I need GPIO number 76, I'm migrating code to the new "gpio character device" interface (/dev/gpiochipn) on my Rock64. However, "gpioinfo" shows that hardly any gpios have useful labels, and Google searches always turn up Raspberry Pi results. So, can I just calculate the new gpio identify? Old gpio is 76, all /dev/gpiochips have 32 lines, 76/32 = 2 rem 12, so old gpio 76 is now /dev/gpiochip2 line 12? Edit: I tried this…

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.

What is the correct way to upgrade from Stretch to Buster? Can I just follow the ordinary Debian upgrade guide, or are there special considerations I should be aware of? Do I need to do a clean install?

Hi everyone, I have a Helios4 NAS on which I have installed Armbian 5.85. I used the Armbian-Config to install OMV 4.1.23-1 (Arrakis). I used OMV to configure some CMB/CIFS shares which were working properly. I connected to my server via SSH, and performed an apt update/upgrade, and I think this broke my SMB shares. According to my Googling, Debian now uses smbd instead of samba. When I try to access my shares at \\192.168.1.x I get a message that says "The specified network name is no longer available." When I run sudo service smbd status, I get the following: ● smbd.service - Samba SMB Daemon Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/smbd.service; enabled; vendor p…

Hi all, I am trying to use a MCP3426 I2C ADC chip with my NanoPi Duo2. I have compiled a custom kernel with the mcp3426 driver in it, but I can't get it to load. The problem seems to be that the chip uses address 0x68 which is the same address that the commonly used DS1307 RTC chip uses. I have blacklisted the ds1307 module which has stopped that module from loading, but somehow '/sys/bus/i2c/devices/0-0068/name' still claims to be a ds1307. 'echo mcp3426 0x68 > /sys/class/i2c-dev/i2c-0/device/new_device' results in a "Invalid argument error" with 'i2c i2c-0: Failed to register i2c client mcp3426 at 0x68 (-16)' being logged in dmesg, and apparently the -16…

I found relatively little information concerning AXP209 support on mainline. My targets : - set the battery as 4.35V instead of 4.2V. Datasheet say it's set in REG 33H. Defaut value for register : 0xCX, X being the charge current. if 1200mAh then default value is 0xC9. To change from 4.2 to 4.35V, use EXh (so E9h if you'r using 1200mA) 11001001 to 11101001.) - Remove boot when AC plugged in and boot only when PEK is pressed. Datasheet say it's possible is not clear about how to do it. It may be reg40 bit6. I could not test yet as REG40 strangely reads 0x00 with i2cget. - Set GPIO0 and GPIO1 as ADC.

After some frustration with poor support for Banana Pi M2 Zero board by the manufacturer and not a very active community on Banana Pi forums, I stumbled upon Armbian and found out there's a CSC for building Armbian for this board. And because I'm having issues with wifi on the images found on Banana forums, with all images being old and based on kernel 3.4 -- wifi disconnects with some weird firmware errors in dmesg after about 3 minutes of running, requiring reboot to get back up again -- I was happy to read Armbian runs fine on BPI-M2Z for some folks here.

I have downloaded some images in https://dl.armbian.com/orangepioneplus/ but none of them work with my boards. I could not SSH to the board or it says `Network error: Connection refused` As far as I know orange pi one plus H6 image OPi One Plus - 5.1.0-sunxi64 works with board. Please share your working image download links. Thank you for your help

Hi there, I just tried to use armbian-config's softy to install OpenMediaVault on my rather new EspressoBin (v5), but it ended up with a bunch of errors (this is from the terminal at second try of installation - didn't record the errors at first try): --2019-06-30 22:12:53-- https://packages.openmediavault.org/public/archive.key Resolving packages.openmediavault.org (packages.openmediavault.org)... 178.254.11.33 Connecting to packages.openmediavault.org (packages.openmediavault.org)|178.254.11.33|:443... connected.

I'm on a Rockpro64 rev2.1 and wanted to use the maximum of the availiable Power of this SoC, so i tried using cpufrequtils and the amrbian config for doing so and noticed two things: I can only set one of my CPU's frequencies and the maximum is 1800 MHz, so i searched this forum for a while and found out how to show the device tree table which is currently loaded(dtc -I fs /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/) and there is one unused mode for both of my CPUs, a 1992 MHz mode for the big chip and a 1512 MHz mode for the small chip, and at this point im stuck. What could i do to load this modes in the cpufrequtils or the armbian config? Spoiler dt…

Hello I am running a NanoPi M4 (kernel 4.4) with /boot on SD and / on an USB-attached disk. At the time I ran `nand-sata-install` ext4 seemed like a good choice. I want to snapshot the file system as a preparation step to backing up, so it looks like I have 2 choices now: 1. ext4 on LVM 2. btrfs -> Will 1. work with u-boot/armbian at all? Which solution is recommended? My guess is that btrfs would be the easiest, so the next question is -> can I go and a) `btrfs-convert /` b) update rootfs in armbianEnv.txt, or is there any other step involved? Regards -Patrick

Hi I was trying to setup my RK3328 based A5X Max tv box running armbian ( a fairly recent version 4.4.154 based) as an access point. Yesterday I tried the armbian-config option, and it downloaded/setup things and the access point worked. Because I only need it as an access point sometimes, I went back through armbian-config and turned it off. Today I tried to go through armbian-config and start an access point again, and I see the access point option has disappeared from Networking in armbian-config. !!! Has something changed recently? I might have done a update/upgrade in between. Or does armbian-config just set it up, …

I am getting a series of errors related to EXT4 zram checksum that look like this one: [3328.749555] EXT4-fs error (device zram0): ext4_readdir:189: inode #11 com find: path var/log/lost+found directory fails checksum at offset 4096 (and other offsets) I've seen a recommendation as a possible fix to the checksum error : disabling metadata_csum, using "tune2fs -O ^metadata_csum /dev/zram0", with the file system umounted (I don't know how to unmount zram) The error apparently is related to bad hardware (not the case) , old kernels that don't support new versions of programs capable of altering the fs. Like a newer checksum feature, or a new…

Hi, Now that I have my NanoPC-T4 working with hardware 3D acceleration, 1080p video playback, full development environment on NVMe, Think it's time for a backup. Has anyone found a usefull utility ? Or should I just use dd to dump the eMMC partions to image files on a USB attached drive and rsync to backup the NVMe the the same ? I'd imagine to restore just boot from an install image, don't install, just dd the images to their repective eMMC partitions and rysnc to restore. Has anyone had to restore a board and how well did your solution work for you ?

Hi, I have two Opi in the same LAN (Ethernet wired) and trying comunicating each other (client-server TCP/UDP) The issue is: From a Laptop in the same LAN, both OPI are detected, and I can ping and SSH both of them. DHCP works fine, they have intertet... all seems to be ok... But, none of the OrangePI are reachable (not even ping) from other OrangePI in the same LAN!!!

Hello, Trying use SNAPD on Rock64 board (4G RAM). After install SNAPD and LXD (or other SNAP app) everything works. But once I reboot board - it won't start and I see Kernel Panic on screen. Any ideas why and how I can try to fix it? Thanks.

I just had an OrangePi of mine at a customer site, die on me. It just stopped responding to ping, so I made them a new MicroSD card and mailed it out. Now I think the Pi hates the Stretch release or something and fries SD cards? Check this out: https://pastebin.com/KaMk70vS Literally first login! only been up 15 minutes

Hi!! I have a radxa rockpi4 and I cant replace the kernel that comes on it (4.4? dont remember). its from the official radxa page because the two versions here didnt boot at all (red lights). My main goal its to test panfrost. I am not familiar with armbian at all. I've tried utilising the defconf from radxa (https://github.com/radxa/kernel) with https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/panfrost/linux fork and mainline from torvalds and none of them boot when replace the Image, the dtb (and change it on armbianenv.txt) , install the modules ande the firmware... first. how i could follow the boot process...see the console output like on raspbia…

Hi all, I cannot post to the H6 forum so I cannot reply to @renedis with the link to download the Armbian_5.88.190601_Orangepi3_Ubuntu_bionic_dev_5.1.5 file he asked. For him and other users that actually cannot run the Ubuntu image for Orange Pi 3 I uploaded in my OneDrive the working image: Armbian_5.88.190601_Orangepi3_Ubuntu_bionic_dev_5.1.5 PS: please can someone move to the Allwinner H6 forum?

Hi All, just discovered this great project. Awesome to see it's so well frequented. I'm trying to do some realtime data acquisition on a OPi one with Armbian Debian Stretch. Following on from the link at the bottom, I'm trying to set an interrupt handler in my loadable kernel module onto a seperate core that I've isolated from the normal scheduler (using isolcpus=2,3 in boot.cmd/.scr). I've built the kernel using the Vagrant instructions with the 4.19.50 RT22 realtime patches. But I've also tested with no luck on the standard build from the download page. I'm using the irq_set_affinity_hint in the following manner, but it has no effec…

Hello there I have been using my orange pi zero as a network wifi adapter for my computer since it does not have one baked in. But this morning it stopped working. I reinstalled armbian hoping to fix the issue to no avail. I am running armbian 5.83 on opz and ubuntu 19.04 on pc. I attempted setting ethernernet to share network via guy nm as well as nmtui. I get an error from nmtui "could not activate connection: ip configuration could not be reserved (no available adress, timeout, etc) any help would be very appreciated.

Hey guys, What is in your opinion the best solution to add WIFI/BT capability to a A20 board? Currently I tried to add ESP8266 connected with SDIO. (without much success so far). Then in order to add BT too I am thinking about ESP32 (with ESP-WROOM-32 module). Do you know if there are references of using this ESP32 solution to provide wifi and bt to a allwinner board/armbian ? Also this module have a lot of different interfaces available, which should be prefered? Or alternatively, do you know other armbian supported solution for wifi/bt? Best would be a solution that does not use USB ports as I need them. …

Hello! I am new to Armbian, so I need a little help and advice here. Until now, I've been using a Banana Pi M1 with Bananian on it, and running NextCloud as my personal cloud server. Unfortunately, Bananian is dead, so there won't be any updated PHP version ( < 5.6), which are needed for recent NextCloud Version: NC 14 requires PHP 7, but Bananian (Debian 8.11) is stuck at PHP 5.6. Soo sad... That's why I need to switch to Armbian, and as far as I know, this project has no sword named "EOL" hovering above its head — at least not yet. ;) My questions are these: - Which version of Armbian would you recommend running NextClo…

Hi all, I have Armbian installed in a TVbox (5.88). I activated ssh, xrdp and samba to create my headless and standalone server. I managed to make the 3 services to work. When I reboot the machine I am not able to see the samba shares, I can not ssh or use xrdo unless I log myself to the machine. I have been searching the internet for this information but I still did not find it. Could you help me to configure to make everything working even If I do not log in?? Thanks in advance.

Hello. I have a task: «Find fail-safety, high stability SBC device, which can work 24/7/365» For the past year I have been monitoring for 30 Orange PI PC2 device`s in different locations.

Hello, OPi3 has a red LED (which lights up when USB device is connected). Is there a way to control it or simly turn off?

Hello guys, I like armbian very much and i think it's the Best OS for SBC. Will there be an official suported armbian Version for the Odroid n2? IF yes, will i be able to migrate from the no official support version to the official support version? Which risks exists if i am using the no official support version? Sorry if the section is wrong.

Hey guys, Using a A20 board with AXP209, using mainline, I am trying to add a battery indicator as an overlay on video signal so that user can see remaining battery %. Something similar to smartphone battery indicator. Any idea how to do this? This shows how to get battery % but how to add an overlay? This sounds like something that probably have already been done. Do you know any existing reference ?

Hello Does anyone know how to toggle GPIO output at boot / power up as an overlay or similar? I have seen only examples that show GPIO in function and I didnt find much information how to toggle GPIO out function. Basically I would like to be able to turn LCD back light on when the board is booting and than to be able to control the brightness. (That I can do after the Linux is up and running) but before the Linux is up I still want to be able to control the LCD back light. Can anyone help with that matter?

Hi, I upgraded 4.13.16-sunxi to 4.19.47 Seems all went fine. but after reboot the former 4.13.16 kernel is still active. My cubietruck runs sd-card+ssd with system moved to ssd by armbian-config. Maybe the issue has to do with the sd-card/ssd booting sequence? If I have the sd-card/ssd system up and running, will the sd-card be touched with later kernel upgrades too, or just the root system at ssd? Holger armbianmonitor: http://ix.io/1Lit

hi, i have a c compiled app & i would like to encrypt it but using H3 implemented security to protect it is this even possible ?

Hi, I run a cubietruck appliance, booting by sd-card->sata (stretch). For availability reasons, I have to build up a spare part machine for quick exchange procedure if hardware/ software will crash. Thus I take a second cubietruck and copy both sd-card and ssd to second ones as a first step. How to tweak the copies to get it up and running? I am not sure about understanding the boot procedure. I assume, I have to change the UUID´s in /boot/armbianEnv.txt and in fstab to the second ssd/sda1. I tried this in the past, but didn´t succeed. Now I want to give it another try. Could someone give advice, if I am right with the UUID issue …

Hi evereyone, After doing some upgrades my Pi-hole Admin Page was not reachable anymore, while blocking still worked. 1. Problem The lighttpd service was not running because of the missing folder /var/log/lighttpd. So lighttpd crashes when trying to access /var/log/lighttpd/error.log and access.log. Reinstalling Pi-hole and lighttpd didnt solve the problem. So I first created the folder myself: sudo mkdir /var/log/lighttpd sudo chown -R www-data: www-data /var/log/lighttpd Then I reinstalled Pi-hole and lighttpd, now lighttpd was running. Unfortunatly now I ran into 403 - Forbidden when accessing…

Hello all, My team and I are trying to use the ASUS Tinkerboard S (running Armbian Bionic v4.19.7, i.e. ubuntu bionic 18.04) as a platform to host a webapp, with a touchscreen as the user interface. We've successfully set up the Tinkerboard S to open chromium-browser in kiosk mode on startup using systemd, and a script that launches `chromium-browser --kiosk --app=server_url`. Our next step is to customize the boot process with the following changes: - none (or as few as possible) lines of text while the services are starting up - include a splash screen with our company logo, if possible Any advice on how to acc…

Thanks for work on armbian!
