Hi all, I use orange pi one + armbian + wavesahe 7 inch display. I got a problem with Touchscreen does not work. I look Waveshare used goodix gt811 touch controller, so when i check on the kernel /lib/module the driver not exist, only gt9x and gt82x. And then i check release log linux kernel, goodix gt811 just present start from kernel 3.5 while armbian is 3.4.x. So, how to make the Touchscreen to work? Thanks.

Hello guys. Could you help me resolv a problem with orange pi (armbian)? The problem is the following: I created a small script in Python that read a I/O of orange Pi, that is read the state of a button(switch). If I execute it on terminal It works fine...

I need certificate AP6210 in regulatory agency here in Brazil (ANATEL). My AP6210 works very well, no problems. I have certificate a similar WIFI/BT module that use Broadcom too in recent past and for this manufacturer send two things: 1. A mfg firmware that enable module hardware control (to set power, channel, duty cycle, technology, etc); 2. A tool called wl that allows send commands For bluetooth a little program that controls this part. I'm looking for similar tools for certificate AP6210 but I cant find this anywhere. I have tried contact with AMPAK and no answer. Appreciate for any help.

So I've had an odroid C2 running Armbian for the past couple of years without a hitch. Today however, when I try to login to my box either remotely or directly, I'm greeted with a login screen. On this box consists of 4 accounts (all mine) and I've set my primary account to automatically login when booted (never needed a password). Yet still, I'm greeted with the login screen. I try to login under my other accounts using my password, but even then, screen goes black for a second, then back to login screen. I really need some help here. As I said, I've been running Armbian flawlessly up until this point, now all of a sudden I can't even login to any of my accou…

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. The code used I believe on A20 is: /usr/bin/sunxi-pio -m PH26'' however it does not work on H2+ Any suggestion, what would work?

Hello guys, I have a NOVAsom M7+ board with a RTL8723bs module with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth integrated. The Wi-Fi works normally and without problems, however the Bluetooth isn't detected at all. When I try to open the Bluetooth Manager app gives me this error: "Connection to BlueZ failed. BlueZ daemon is not running. blueman-manager cannot continue. This probably means that there were no Bluetooth adapters detected or Bluetooth daemon was not started". I already searched the internet and found some people with problems related to this module and Bluetooth, does anyone know how to solve this? Best regards

Good day! I found some oddities with UART port driver. If I change the speed or the number of bits in the transmission, then everything works fine. But if I try to set the parity it does not sets. Not work modes: "EVEN, SPACE, MARK". Normal works only "NONE". Anyone faced similar problem? Tested under minicom and Java prorgam. The same result. p.s. I mean this modes sets only logical and does not sets physical. The device on other end always reports parity errors.

For my Mekotronics R58 mini PC I downloaded and installed latest Armbian build "bookworm". When I want to execute the suggested scripts to add Mali PPA's for hardware acceleration, I get the error "no release file" for these PPA's. What to do? Wait until it gets solved? Download and install Jammy in stead? Would the PPA's then work without error? Or is there another workaround? Thanks for any pointers! Bas

I got it working on the older jessie images, but now I have the armbian buster image. I've searched but can't find anyway to make it work. The armbian page shows it as tested hardware, but it still doesn't work out of the box it seems. Is there a working guide or are these just not working?

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

Their offer: rsa-sha2-512,rsa-sha2-256,ecdsa-sha2-nistp256,ssh-ed25519 I've read online that you can get around this with "-oHostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-dss" temporarily, but I cant seem to find a guide on how to regenerate the host keys on armbian to match more current standards (or what I assume is ssh's up to date minimum) Doe…

Hi, I want turn off lan lights like I can do on Banana Pi, see bpi_ledset link below: https://github.com/n1tehawk/bpi_ledset I have couple of these boards turned on and it is like live in Las Vegas when it is night. And second reason why I do not need these lights is I see network activity on switch, I do not need to see duplicity information on board and switch together. Is is possible to turn lan leds on Orange Pi boards?

Apparently I'm not good at this... What I want to do is to build a subnet of IoT devices in home/small-office environments. I'm not sure how I would implement this... Suppose: I have a classic wireless/modem/router at 192.168.1.1, windows / android devices already connected, fixed IP or DHCP. I want to build another subnet of IoT devices, say 192.168.200.x... At the center I have a Windows 7/8/10 PC with a single NIC, with two IP addresses, say 192.168.1.100 and 192.168.200.1 - this can reach all two subnets... The problem is the IoT devices (currently several OPi versions, Raspberry Pi's etc) which have fixed IP'…

Most of the time our Arm computer does nothing and the CPU is around 40º, and therefore no fan is needed. But sometimes they work a lot and the fan is really necessary. So I wonder if a 5V fan connected to the gpio pins can be used and that the same board sends power to the fan when for example the CPU exceeds 60 °. And below 60º the orangepi that cuts the current to the fan. Can it be done without external components?

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 …

My NanoPi M4 4Gb suddenly fails to get out to internet, I checked it was OK to link via eth0 but ping fails. Not sure what to do. Please ask me what I can try. It was working but something broke! Sorry but I am not too good at this, any suggestions please? Thanks James

Hello everyone, I have been searching on the net trying to find a way to activate 3d acceleration since i want to use Jellyfin on my orange pi 5. After searching I found the option for ubuntu but not for bullseye, unfortunately I'm using bullseye due to OMV which won't work on ubuntu to use for my media server. Is there any way to turn on the 3d acceleration on Debian? I mean it should be possible since technically Ubuntu is based on Debian. but i was wondering if there are any steps that I need to follow.

Hello, I'm a newby in linux and armbian. I'm trying to force static ip on my sbc, I followed some hints on internet adding file to interface.d folder, directly in interface file (both created on purpose by me). Interface is enP4p65s0 and I replaced in exaples eth0 with this (auto enP4p65s0 iface... etc) but it seems none works. armbian-config seems to do nothing (it seems broken) Anyone can route me to some doc?

Hello, i had installed Raspbian OS on bpi M2 zero and the power button was working fine. After switching to Armbian (Focal - Buster , etc), i have problem with the power button that does not work anymore. The images were released for the specific board, but although the power button doesnt work. Additional, the installed SPI LCD, when powered off using raspbian, the backlight was deactivated (so power on GPIO was also off) Now with Armbian, even if i shutdown via command, the backlight remains on. Any suggestions?

Hi, I'm trying to work with the CedarX/Cedrus Video Engine (on Allwinner A20). It works smoothly with my patched FFmpeg; for example: ffmpeg -f v4l2 -r 30 -pix_fmt nv12 -video_size 1280x720 -i /dev/video0 -vcodec cedrus264 -pix_fmt nv12 -qp 15 -f rtsp -rtsp_transport tcp rtsp://192.168.10.11/live/test I need to use pixel format RGB24, but as far as I understand, I'm limited to work with NV12 (or NV16) pixel format. Does this limitation is due to: My FFmpeg patch (I think not...) CedarX/Cedrus driver implementation. Hardware limitation. Thanks for the help, Joseph

Hello. I'm the one who is the owner of Banana Pi M3... Vendor provides "not so good" OS images... And I want to use best available kernel with the best available linux distr. So, my first question is about kernel version. Can armbian run under 3.4.39 kernel? https://github.com/BPI-SINOVOIP/BPI-M3-bsp To make build reproducible I need to fork this repo and made modifications of the file tree. As I know, Banana Pi M3 now can boot under mainline uboot. Also, there are some binary blobs to support GPU on this board, and I want to try those packages to get hardware acceleration.

I would like to use the uart of the orangepi zero 2 for an application. It esists for example /dev/ttyS5. But unfortunately the communication does not work. When I connect minicom to this port and short the two pins 8 and 10, I wanted to see the characters that are sent. Minicom can be connected (minicom -D /dev/ttyS5). But the characters are not mirrored. Do I need to enable the UART before? How to do this? The orangepi-config program does not exist on the system. The system reports after the login with: Welcome to Orange Pi 3.0.6 Bullseye with Linux 5.16.17-sun50iw9 Thank you for your thoughts.

Do you know any existing reference ?

Dear all, I used win32diskimager to write the armbian image on a 8G sd card and everything works good. when I finish working on the image I read the final image also by using win32diskimager, the size of this image is right now 8G since the sd card size is 8G. After that I wrote this 8G image on a 16 G sd card. when I check the size of this new sd card after writing the 8G image it shows that the sd card size is 8G not 16 G. So, please how can I read an image from a 8G sd card and write it to a 16 G sd card and the size of the sd card remains 16 G to be used later. Best regards

Hello guys! I'm new on the forum and I'll start using Armbian for my Orange boards, I was using Loboris images in Orange Pi Forums but I haven't seen any updates on them, so I decided to use Armbian for my boards. I have tested a little bit and everything works like a charm. Taking into account that I'm not an expert either in Linux or Programming I'd like to have a little board that I purchased one year ago which is the NanoPi board http://www.nanopi.org/NanoPi_Feature.html ,is it possible to port Armbian to that device? I haven't been able to use WiFi on the device or connect it to internet to update packages and so on. I also couldn't finish the "Kernel build" …

armbian-ramlog & armbian-truncate-log are not executed due to an error parsing the XTRA_RSYNC_TO=(--delete) from /etc/default/armbian-ramlog This results in quick saturation of /var/log. I've made some advancement in debugging "armbian-ramlog & armbian-truncate-log" complex, based on the master tree here: https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/packages/bsp/common/usr/lib/armbian/armbian-ramlog Your /usr/lib/armbian/armbian-ramlog has a syntax error in the array expression ${XTRA_RSYNC_TO[@]+"${XTRA_RSYNC_TO[@]}"} The 1st array lacks a closing } curly braces. Secondly, I can't figure out, why the same array …

Hi. I problem with the board banana pi r1, I've installed a couple of system on it, but I can't get the ip address from the router, I have a banana pi m1 and with the same image it works, but when I remove the sd memory and install it on banana pi r1 and it doesn't work. The bpi-r1 is broken the ethernet port or something like that? When the bpi-r1 starts running turn on the green light in the ethernet port, that doesn't happen with the bpi-m1 model. any idea, I've installed with the debian installer, but is the same problem, the ethernet doesn't work when I am configuring the net

I posted here since this is more a generic question related to initrd than specific to board My scenario is this: I modified my ARMBIAN uInitrd ( unpacked and repacked ) and added a driver I needed , in particular driver for recognizing internal nand. Of course in the init script I added insmod aml_nftl_dev.ko The process was successfull and infact now i can see the internal nand lsblk NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT mmcblk0 179:0 0 980M 0 disk |-mmcblk0p1 179:1 0 128M 0 part /boot `-mmcblk0p2 179:2 0 848M 0 part / cache 250:0 0 512M 0 disk logo 250:1 0 32M 0 disk recovery 250:2 0 3…

I just got my tinker board r2.0 today and installed the cli version of armbian. But it seems the wifi module is not regocnized. So also in the armbian-config under network there is no wifi option with SSID and Password fields. Any Idea how I can get it up and running? Also the ifconfig -a command does not show wlan0

hello, i just installed Armbian for Odroid C2. i have a simple script located at /home/tung/pixx.sh the script is "feh --quiet --fullscreen --borderless --hide-pointer --randomize --slideshow-delay 30 /media/odroid/38C1-602E/*" so it just opens my usb drive and starts a slideshow. nothing fancy. i have tried rc.local and cron as seen here but my script refuses to auto run when i boot up https://linuxtechlab.com/executing-commands-scripts-at-reboot/ if i manually type in terminal: sh /home/tung/pixx.sh then it works! i have same issue with Ubuntu Mate and Diet OS. so at least i am consistent with my mistakes :-D please advi…

Hello, I'm trying to writing a patch for /gpu/drm/panel/panel-simple.c in order to make my 3.5" ampire works with my Olimex's A13 som board. I've correctly set display frequencies and parameters, and the image is displayed correctly... ...except for some random pixel wich sometimes changes color. I dig out with my oscilloscope and find that RGB data changes on clock's rising edge. Display's datasheet request data to be changed on falling edge insted. So, I've tryied to set the property, but nothing changed: data still changes on rising edge. Here's the core of my patch: diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/panel/p…

I just attempted several builds of Build-Armbian, 5.67 bionic 5.0 rc1 with S9xxx board. None of them will boot. It's almost like it's not reading the DTB right. It just sits at the MXQPro logo screen. I've edited to extlinux.conf and the uEnv.ini and even created a dtb.img but it doesn't seem to make a difference. I've used this same dtb with builds produced by balbes150 and it worked fine. I'm a noob, but I'm not just trying to get this running. I plan to contribute to the project if possible. I was a software engineer in a past life. Any hints in the right direction would be much appreciated. For instance, is there a way to see the boot console so I can se…

Hello, I have a few small questions: Cubietruck with latest Armbian Two log folders, /var/log and /var/log.hdd, the first kept in RAM that's regularly copied to the SD-Card, keeping the wear of the SD small This used to work flawlessly, I don't know when this changed Lately I realized that the RAM-disk is flooded very quickly by something that is writing to /var/log/journal/random_hex_number/ until it runs OOM. Almost all other logs are empty, likely because a lot more gets written to the journal log. Unfortunately the content of all files in the journal subfolder contain binary data, the only commonality I see is that all files start…

Hi, I am working on a PR[0] to the Armbian build framework. As suggested in the PR, I am trying to use the upstream U-Boot source and apply the required patches[1][2] on top of it. One of the patch series[2] requires a git subtree[3] to be added to the U-Boot source before applying the patch itself. However, it seems that Armbian's build framework first attempts to apply the required patches[4] on the U-Boot source and then calls the pre_config_uboot_target hook[5]. Currently, I've put the code to add the git subtree in the pre_config_uboot_target hook. As a result, the required patch series are not getting applied. Is there any way in which we can co…

Maybe someone will be interested in it. https://bbs.stationpc.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=343&extra=page%3D1%26filter%3Dauthor%26orderby%3Dlastpost The uniqueness of this model is in the mechanism of a very simple installation of a standard SATA SSD drive. p.s. According to information from one client who uses this equipment in serious industrial operation - P2 worked without problems for many days with a full load (24\7) in harsh conditions without failures and failures, at the same time, they tried to use R4S, which froze and turned off after 20 hours.

Trying to clear boot sequence from errors while building mainline version with following parameters: I found error sunxi-nmi: unable to map resource. After investigation, I found: 1) there is no nmi controller on A64, according to last version of Allwinner A64 manual; 2) nmi is added into DT by patch add-A64-nmi_intc. patch. I created a user patch reversing this patch, but it could be better if this patch is removed from A64 as it is usefull only on other chip. Question: is my opinion on this topic ok? Who is in charge to solve this conflict between me and the guy who added this patch? Mike

Hi, I'm new to armbian, running armbian focal on an ODROID HC4. I'm trying to setup ZFS but when I install the zfs packages it is failing to build the kernel module. I checked the release notes for ZFS 2.0.1 and it should support 5.10 kernels?

Hi, hardware / OS = OrangePi PC with Armbian 22.04.2 Ubuntu When executing following command "ssh -D 1080 user@domain" the system doesn't create / open ssh port where it should listen too. I can verify this with command "ps aux | grep ssh". I edited /etc/ssh/sshd_config file by enabling following lines AllowTcpForwarding yes PermitTunnel yes What else do I have to do in order to be able to start ssh proxy server? I was following this guide https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-route-web-traffic-securely-without-a-vpn-using-a-socks-tunnel Thank you.

Hi! I just wanted to ask if somebody knows if the accuracy of the internal temperature sensor (A20 Chip) is defined somewhere? We want to use the temperature sensor in the A20 to generate a heating model for our PCB ..... I actually do not find anything in the datasheets - that's the reason I am asking here... Best regards!

I want to use cubieboard 1 to host 5 websites. So I installed bind9 for dns in order to add godaddy and bigrock. Please keep wan and lan in mind when reading this. The wan address is 122.157.152.57, while the lan address is 192.168.1.2. Some applications are functional, while others are not. Godaddy and Rockbig have already added bind9 DNS. On wan, Apache isn't working. It travels to modem or router login (ip address: 192.168.1.1) at domian projectok.com, and I can view a test html page on the LAN. webmin is operational. proftpd: Failed to start qbittorrent is up and running.

Is there a way to set GPIO pin modes and values (much) earlier than a script running in /etc/init.d/ ?

Hello, I've the Pi One H3 version that I always used with a HDMI to VGA adapter that worked ok until lately that stopped working. So I was thinking to connect the board to a TV monitor having DVI connection. I've tried both stable and experimental version of Armbian o.s. and it shows the same problem, basically it boots ok at native resolution (1280x768 60Hz) until it starts the desktop GUI and it goes to "no signal". If I return to the text console mode the monitor feel the signal again and at the same native panel resolution. I've tried both HDMI to DVI adapter at the monitor side and also an HDMI to DVI adapter and using a DVI cable on the board side and noth…

Hi There! I noticed the EOS for the OrangePi+ and that the OrangePi+ 2 is still supported. Since boards are almost identical, why leave the OrangePi+? And on top of that: when I download the current version, the downloads are the same for both boards.... Or am I missing something?

Hello, I saw from other posts that is possible to enable HWDecode for Video on the H3 of OrangePi PC O would love to make mpv or cvlc work with hwaccel People mention to apply the patches of LibreELEC on the Armbian build. But i dont have the knowhow to do so. Does anyone already have done this? any links, tips, guides, tutorials that i can follow Ty in advance and sorry for grammar

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, I need help. I've compiled the kernel, installed it with dpkg, but it keeps booting from the upstream kernel, how to set the env var to force the new kernel??

Hello, I installed Debian server mainline kernel . Everything works but I am not sure about temperatures.

Where has enabling things like I2C moved to ? I do not see it any more in armbian-config (at least on the Orange Pi 5 plus image) Thanks

Hey. I don't know if this is the correct board. In another section i got a red warning, and i understand it in a way, to absolute not post anything in there. On the downloadpage for the Odroid HC4 i'm able to download this version: Armbian_21.08.9_Odroidhc4_focal_current_5.10.81_minimal.img.xz with this link: https://redirect.armbian.com/region/EU/odroidhc4/Focal_current_minimal But with "apt update ; apt upgrade" my HC4 stays on "Armbian 21.08.8 Focal with Linux 5.10.81-meson64" Do i have to do something else? Best regards, Tuffi

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.

I connected the power directly to the 5V and GND pins and I tried to connect a USB modem with external power , usb-serial adapter, Flash Memory to type-C , but devices are not found. There is no problem in schematic

Hello, I'm currently working on integrating a custom-made driver into my Armbian build, but I'm facing some challenges. I've researched the process and found that it should be done through the kernel configuration. However, despite my efforts, I can't seem to find any option that allows me to add a custom driver. I've attempted placing the .ko file in a /driver folder, that I created within the source, as well as in the kernel/ folder under userpatches/, but unfortunately, it hasn't worked. I'm seeking guidance on whether it's possible to add a custom driver to an Armbian build and, if so, I'd greatly appreciate any insights or step-by-step instructi…

I need to connect an HDMI or DVI monitor (with adapter HDMI to DVI) to an Orange Pi (PC Plus or Plus 2) while the Orange Pi is already running but all I get is a pink screen. How can I configure Armbian to be able to hot plug a monitor? If the monitor is already plugged when powering the Orange Pi there is no problem.

- To my surprice I was able to upgrade odroid-n2+ to kernel 6.0.10 on a debian bookworm install. Had previously tried to compile kernel 6.0.9 and 6.0.10 from kernel.org and also through the armbian build with no success. The 6.0.9 and 6.0.10 from kernel.org did work but did both lack wifi connections - did try many dongle without success. This deb package from imola.armbian.com do work like a charm on debian bookworm. ------------------------------------- Did download https://imola.armbian.com/beta/pool/main/l/ linux-dtb-edge-meson64_22.11.0-trunk.0138_arm64.deb linux-headers-edge-meson64_22.11.0-trunk.0138_arm64.deb …

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.

From the posts that I've read i think i have made the terrible mistake of updating the software via command. It was kinda slow so I did reboot command and the board since than won't start. I've bought the uart adapter and the boot process is as follows: https://pastebin.com/Pz1xb5jc Can i get support?
