I used to be able to easily install ili9341 lcd's on old armbian using, but now it looks like it became much harder now... can you tell me or point me to the right direction to start?

Hi, I have installed Ubuntu Jammy on my Orange pi 5 plus board a while ago, I was wondering if I could upgrade to the new Noble release of armbian for OPI5 plus without having to reinstall the whole image and without breaking the system, I upgraded the kernel to the latest version with no issues, I just wanted to know the correct and safest way of upgrading the Noble release of Armbian. Thank you in advance.

Hi, I've got an Odroid HC2 with Armbian Buster and OMV on it, and the SD card I used it with got corrupted. So I salvaged all the files from it and backups, and restored the whole file structure onto a new SD card, with an ext4 MBR primary partition. Now, my concern is, how can I make this bootable? I can boot the HC2 off a throwaway newly installed Armbian, and access the target SD card through a USB card reader. I could google that armbian-config is used to install the bootloader, but apparently it can only do that to the card which has been used to boot the device in the first place. Any suggestions? thanks

I just install everything and now i ne3d get out from the text mode.. how do i start at grphic mode.. thank yall..

I have compiled OpenCPN Marine Chart plotter and navigation software for the Orange Pi PC with the Mali graphics acceleration. It seems to be working fine. I am trying to document the process and possibly make a prebuilt image available at opencpn.org. http://opencpn.org/ocpn/Install_Orange_pi_Allwinner I am not happy with the name they gave me for the page. And the details at: http://kb7kmo.blogspot.com/2016/04/opencpn-on-orange-pi-allwinner-h3-arm.html My question is how should I reference armbian? And how should I reference the hardware? Since it appears that a number of these boards are very similar and would probably require the same steps on the …

I'm trying to access GPIO through python using the following library: https://github.com/duxingkei33/orangepi_PC_gpio_pyH3 Online guides say that for OPi One this should be a plug and play solution. However, for me, the pins dont seem to be mapping properly, running dir(ports) and dir(connector) yields the results shown here All the PAx pins are missing, and the results bare no similarity to the actual pin config found here any help appreciated, Andy

Hi I would like to run my OrangePi +2e with absolute minimum power consumption ie no display, no wifi, reduced clock speed, etc. I only really need ethernet and USB function. When I first set the OrangePi +2e up I ran Armbian Jessie and there was a package that I downloaded from one of the forums that allowed me to manage such things. I can not find this package again. I don't know if it would work with Stretch. The Armbian Config might do this instead? Any help greatly appreciated. Regards Carlos

So I'm trying to debug a 32 bit C compiler circa 1983 that only compiles in 32 bit. I have the compiler working in Linux Ubuntu 18.04 and later with multiverse (32 bit) support installed. I thought to myself PI OS would have to be one the most popular used and supported 32 bit OS, so let's compile and debug the the 32 application in a complete 32 environment. However on the PI OS 32 bit while I have managed to compile to compiler with no issues it doesn't execute and gets seg faults. No problem I can debug it! Except I can't because if I use the debugger via Geany or directly it complains it can't find variables higher up …

Hello. I have been struggling with creating a local build environment that will be guaranteed to work today, next month, next year etc. My hardware is Radxa-Zero and I want to run kernel 6.1.23. Currently I find that the build environment, in various ways, breaks the build over time. I've been chasing a stable build for kernels 6.1.23, 57, 58, 59. The build environment, by default, grabs the latest 6.1.y kernel, which is no good for me. My root FS and DTB are for 6.1.23 and I don't want to keep updating everything just because I need to make some kernel configuration changes. I have tried the BSPFREEZE and OFFLINE_WORK build options but t…

Hello ! I'm trying to make DuetSoftwareFirmware (software to control 3D printers boards using a SBC) working on a OrangePi4B using armbian (The software works well on raspberry pi 3 and 4). It use a SPI interface for data transfer between SBC and the board as well as an extra pin "data transfer ready". I use the pin 22 on the connector for "data transfer ready". This pin is mapped to GPIO1_D0. So GPIO pin number is 56 ( 1 * 32 + 3 * 8 + 0). For now, I'm getting errors because it seems like the pin can't be set into event mode. Below is the part of the source code (it can also be seen here) // Set up the pin gpioevent_request t…

I have one problem a bit hard to explain. I had a monitor with VGA, and that was working with my Orange Pi Plus 2e, but I had to change the monitor to DVI and the screen doesn't work anymore. I can't see anything. even if I try to run with my television (32'') i can see the screen when it's loading the armbian (the commands), but when it tries to open the GUI I cannot see anymore. I want to cancel the autologin to GUI to change the size to use the command line to change the screen size, but I have no idea how to do it, I didn't find anyway to do that. Anyone has any idea?

Hi Guys, I am working with Orange and Banana Pi development boards all with a minimum og 8GB eMMC chips. I am looking for a process to clone a working system to an SD card and using it as a checkpoint for my configuration changes so should I mess things up I can revert to the previous checkpoint. I have used 'dd' in the past but it is considerably bigger than the standard install images and it slows down the recovery process quite a lot. Is there a better way for me to clone the working system to an SD card. Thank you in advance, Rick

Hi, We can access port usig eg. echo 1 >/sys/class/leds/green_led/brightness (or red_led) echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/gpio_sw.0/gpio_sw/PA6/data (other ports) My question is as follows: How to access to ports using C language ?

I have a script, that should turn off the usb power (i need to turn off smog-meter, in order to preserve laser). It should actually work in a way, that turns on, measures, turns off and waits for the next iteration.

Hi everybody, In a project I'm working on, I've added two PCA9535 I/O expanders to use 32 additional inputs on my Nano Pi Neo. I've connected the INT line from both multiplexers to the gpio11 interrupt pin on the Nano Pi Neo, and attached to that a pull-up resistor of 10k. I've used interrupts before, but my question is how to poll both PCA9535 I/O using one interrupt? my DTS when polling one (It works!): /dts-v1/; /plugin/; / { compatible = "allwinner,sun4i-a10", "allwinner,sun7i-a20", "allwinner,sun8i-h3", "allwinner,sun50i-a64", "allwinner,sun50i-h5"; fragment@0 { /* This fragment is required only if using interrupts *…

Hello folks, I have completed my Armbian NTP server based on the wonderful little NanoPi Neo3. However something bothers me a bit, i.e. how much delay or latency is in eth0 (It is a 1Gbs port). By checking the default eth0 settings (ethtool -c eth0) I have the parameters below. In particular rx-usec = 327usec means that when a packet is received, the IRQ to alert the CPU can be delayed up to 327usec. With these settings on the nanopi (NTP server) I get about 1msec delay on the NTP client (Windows PC). By cutting the rx-usecs to 35 usecs I get a delay on the client of about 450usec, so a massive improvement and 30% faster than rpi 4. At the mo…

Hello, I'm having trouble playing some videos on Orange Pi 3 (http://www.orangepi.org/Orange%20Pi%203/), especially those with full HD quality. I can even play the video, but it keeps crashing.

Hello everyone, I have a nanopi r2s running the latest minimal focal image, and I'm having trouble with the network configuration. Context: I have an intranet connected to the LAN port (lan0), and my home network connected to the WAN port (eth0). The intranet does not connect to the internet, and both networks have functional DHCP servers on different IP ranges. For some reason the system thinks it should try to access the internet via my intranet, which is definitely not going to work. Suppose the intranet is 10.0.0.0/24, how can I tell the system to use this interface if and only if I'm accessing addresses that falls under this address …

I have just downloaded desktop Armbian 22.08 Jammy XFCE on my Odroid-C2 and it works fine on a 1080p monitor. I need it to work on a different monitor though so I have added the following lines to /boot/armbianEnv.txt display_autodetect=false hdmimode=1680x1050p60hz and added hdmitx=forcergb in the bootargs (which I copy/pasted from /boot/boot.cmd) but it has no effect. My monitor works with these parameters on Hardkernels Ubuntu 18.04 image. What else do I need to do?

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? …

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…

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…

Hi, I started armbian from SD card on a Libre.Computer Le Potato board. Runs like hell and seems much more robust than the Ubuntu 18.04 img that I used before. But how can I get it on my 32 Gb eMMC (5.)??? E.g. the Ubuntu image of Le Potato has a script called ``lc_distro_transfer``. Is there anything similar for armbian? Note: For the Ubuntu image, one has to mount the eMMC after the booting from the SD card has started; kind of ugly, but otherwise the Potato tries to start from the eMMC. Best, Robert

Hello I am new to Nanopi m1 plus development board. I followed the instruction as on friendlyarm's wiki page. I loaded the image from my Ubuntu OS and connected my device to the pc. The blue led was blinking normally. I used Putty to view the logs.

Sorry to borrow you with I suppose a basic question... I am not at home and I have to install an opz but the router here is managing address with 192.168.2.1 instead of 1.1... Please what I have to do on the opz to connect to the router? Sorry again for my lack of knowledge.

Hi, I'm using Orange Pi One board for Octoprint, but it's slow sometimes, because of max cpu frequency at 1 GHz. Under full load cpu temp is not higher than 30 °C, so I would like to set higher frequency, but all images looks like their max cpu frequency is just 1 GHz. So, is there any image with higher max cpu frequency? Thanks

Hello everybody, this is my very first post on armbian forum! I wanted to give a try to armbian on my bananapi M1 so I'm running the Debian Jessie server version. I formerly used both raspbian and bananian and always ran OpenVPN server in order to be able to connect home when I'm away. This time I reconfigured the service from scratch following this guide: https://wiki.debian.org/OpenVPN My problem is that I after the set up the daemon doesn't seem to start for real... :-/ The output of "service openvpn status" command report the service as running. On the other side, netstat on the server and telnet from a client on port 1194 act as the service isn't …

Hi, i'm having problems to install and use MysQL ODBC connector in ARMBIAN 5.60 stable Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS 3.4.113-sun8i. As you know for this version of ubuntu there is no Package 'libmyodbc' installation candidate. So, I downloaded ODBC driver for Ubuntu 16.04 directly with wget https://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/Connector-ODBC/5.3/mysql-connector-odbc-5.3.11-linux-ubuntu16.04-x86-32bit.tar.gz (32bit as H3 is 32 bits - but same happens with 64 bits too) Copied all libraries (libmyodbc5a.so libmyodbc5S.so libmyodbc5w.so) to folder /usr/local/odbc/lib then create the /etc/odbc.ini file with the following data: [MySQL-a…

Hi, From a quick search of the forum this appears to be happening across different CPUs so I am posting here rather in the H3 forum. Using the current updated legacy version. ARMBIAN 5.36 Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS 3.4.113-sun8i /var/log/syslog gets repeated messages due to xconsole not being installed. Ref: https://devcentral.nasqueron.org/T806 https://forum.odroid.com/viewtopic.php?f=136&t=21897 The solution is to comment out the last few lines in /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf nano /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf so it looks like ... # NOTE: adjust the list below, or you'll go crazy if yo…

Hello, I would like the ability to run Firefox or Chromuim rather than Gnome or any desktop environment when I start up my Orange Pi 5. This is for a device I'm setting up that (when rebooted) ideally won't even prompt the user to log in, it'll just directly bring up the browser and directly to a specific URL. Any thoughts on how I might do this? David

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?

I wonder if a port is possible and/or feasible, if it is, where can I check? I tried searching on documentations for a guide on how to start a port, but couldn't find anything. If I remember correctly, xiaomi-elish hardware is very related to xiaomi-alioth, to the point of some of the code for PMOS being shared, obviously each hardware has it's quirks but, I think it's possible, i do have the device for testing, and I have some knowledge of programming, but I can learn more in the process.

I had a untested touchscreen device lying in its box , presenting itself as: Bus 006 Device 002: ID 0eef:0001 D-WAV Scientific Co., Ltd eGalax TouchScreen The driver provided on their site (https://www.eeti.com/drivers_Linux.html) complains that the controller is non-HID and reverts back the installation. I tried it manually with no success. I'm using an OPi PC Plus to build a Home Assistant machine. Does anyone have pointers for this for Armbian? Something like https://lennarkivistik.com/cat/misc/hacu/13 (this one is for RPi)

Hello everyone. I'm using the latest version of armbian for the NanoPi R2S. I noticed that the board has 4 exposed GPIO ports on the board. I'm interested in using the RX1 and TX1 and use it for the UART interface. It seems I cannot use it. It might be disabled by default. Can somebody confirm or not if UART1 is enabled by default and if not what should I do to enable it ? Thanks Guillaume

The OS that i am using is Armbian stretch downloaded from this link : https://www.armbian.com/nanopi-neo/ What I am trying to do is boot the OS from the SD card and have the filesystem on a SSD disk.
