Hello, Andrew from Italy. I'm a lucky owner of Orange Pi3, running nighly good armbian (debian). i saw now there's a dev WIP version. how to update, cause i made update and dist update but now i'm on 5.88.190610 nightly Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) 5.1.7-sunxi6 . thanks in advance bye

Great job here! I need video acceleration on my bPI+. I found some outdated info and hints but nothing solid, can this be done? Can I find (or build) a legacy kernel somehow? How/where? Thanks again, armbian is amazing!

Has anyone managed to use a usb adapter to get mic/aux out working on an Orange Pi Zero LTS? I am thinking of getting something like this (apparently it works with linux): https://www.amazon.com/Adapter-Raspberry-External-Headphone-Microphone/dp/B07R6TMQ4C/ref=sr_1_19?crid=71ETFNJN8CS8&dchild=1&keywords=usb+mic+raspberry+pi&qid=1600173433&sprefix=usb+mic+rasp%2Caps%2C200&sr=8-19

Hi there, how to manually disable kernel updates? Orange Pi 5, Armbian 24.11.1, kernel 6.1.75-vendor-rk35xx. mPCIe working ok with NVMe 512GB module. There is NO option to disable kernel updates in armbian-config -> system there's only option to ENABLE firmware updates. And login screen shows kernel updates ENABLED. I don't want to loose NVMe support on upgrade. Laurent

My orange pi one is not getting usb 2.0 speeds. The log shows 2.0 in dmesg but when I tested usb data transfer using DD and a flash drive i only got 6MB. Anything I can do to get faster speeds?

Hi all. I am new to Arm and Linux in general. Got me a Raspberry pi5 several days ago and was going trough different OS systems so i can settle on one final choice. Landed in the Armbian community and tested the Armbian Bookworn / Gnome distro and was amazed how smooth and good looking this is. The only problem i have is the lack of preinstalled Widevine support. I know (and also tested) that Raspberry OS does have DRM playback support trough Widevine. So it works with the latest 64bit Arm Linux Kernel, right ? So i even went and extracted the Widevine folder form the RpOS system.... Now, several days after i am clueless on how to install Widevine and make the Chcromi…

Hello everyone, I was going to purchase Rock Pi 4 model B+ (with WiFi/BT and eMMC chip). I see that Rock Pi 4 family is supported by Armbian (https://www.armbian.com/rockpi4/), however, there is no mention of models A+ and B+. There are just A, B and C+. Could you please confirm/refute that Rock Pi 4 B+ is supported by Armbian and point me to the image for that model?

Hi i'm interested in buying an orange pi , i'm interested in running linux and android and the use is for some gaming, using for facebook internet etc. Questions i like to have some help. 1 - Can i run games like gangstar vegas, gta San andres , the orange pi is good for this type of games on android or i have problems it temperature? And i know for this type of use the orange pi needs a coler. 2- I'm a beginer in linux it's easy to install and run some software that i can use for some works? 3 - In daily are much difference if i compare a orange pi and a android box? Thank you for all your help, and remember i'm beteween orange pi or a androi…

I am trying to get BigTreeTech Pi TFT43 display working on a Radxa Rockpi 3A I have. I put the latest Armbian image on the rockpi, but I'm at a loss as to how I configure the device tree to make the screen work. I have verified that the screen does work on a Raspberry Pi 3B+ while using BTT's instructions here, but those instructions don't seem to translate to Armbian. All other examples I have found seem to be specific to the SBC vendor's custom branches. It looks like the vdd_mipi regulator is not enabled so I guess that should be the first step, how do I enable it? Thanks for your help!

I read a lot of U Boot documentation the last hours but I still fail at fundamental understanding, like: - where can variables be set? boot.scr obviously, but there is also uEnv.txt boot.cmd armbianEnv.txt ... and in which order and precendence are they parsed? (If I set a variable in different files, which value will be used? first? last? ...) - how is a change made persistent (saveenv does not work) - Can sub-variables be changed, e.g. root in bootargs what I am trying to achieve atm is to change the boot partion rootdev from p1 to p2. Even thou I think I patched the relevant files, printenv shows that bootargs and rootdev are still set to…

Hi, im trying to build a receiver with WebRTC. I tried multiple Boards (Raspberry PI 3B, RPI 3B+, AML-S905X-CC, NanoPI Fire3), but none of them had the power to display a Full HD Video. After some research I stumbled up on this article ( https://bootlin.com/blog/tag/allwinner/ ). So now my question would be if I can get Hardware Acceleration in Chromium with the mainline kernel, with Allwinner H2/H3? Or is there any other Option I can get WebRTC Hardware Accelerated? Thanks for the help

Hello everyone, new ARM user here, but long-time GNU/Linux user for about 25 years. I'm trying to install a (preferably debian based) distribution on a newly acquired ARM laptop, a Samsung "galaxy S book" model SM-W767V - this machine is based on qcom's "Snapdragon 8cx" SoC. When i try to boot a generic image (assuming the BIOS/UEFI lists it in the boot menu) it either freezes or reboots at a specific point during the boot process. Where it crashes is always consistent for a specific image, but can differ across different images. The Armbian ones make it past the bootloader and crash at some point during the kernel boot. Has anyone had …

I see multiple projects on GitHub for getting RTL8812AU devices working on Armbian. Right now, I'm working with a NanoPi M1 while I wait for a rock64 to arrive in the mail. I can get a driver to build, make and make install, but I cannot get the device recognized. The last project I tried was this: https://github.com/diederikdehaas/rtl8812AU

Hi! Yesterday i upgraded ugly Chinese linux to Armbian 16.04 LTS and tested h3control on it. All, except daemon installer, worked fine. Now daemon installer had been fixed. I need any help in testing of it on H3/H2/H5 boards with legacy/mainline kernels. h3control - is a headless daemon/console tool to check and control CPU, DDR frequency and built-in temperature sensor via embedded http-server. It distinguishes from Armbian tools (h3's consumption and monitor): It doesn't rely on particular linux distribution. The only prerequisite is a mono. It tested with mono from 3.2.8 (released in Feb 2014) to 5.4 (current stable). It is a web a…

Hi Everyone, I have a clean install of armbian with vanilla gnome installed, it boots to the login screen and mouse seems fine but after a few seconds it stops responding and when you move it it does this weird rapid shake movement as if your moving the mouse like 2 pixels side to side 100 times a second, its hard to explain but the curser doesn't move. Every reboot and the same thing happens and I tried starting from scratch with a fresh flash but same results happen and also tried different mouse, they work fine on other machines though. Has anyone come across anything like this before who can possibly offer some advice? Sorry if I haven't explai…

Does anyone know of an ARM-based single board computer that stores its boot firmware in SPI flash and has write protection mechanisms (e.g., screws, pins, jumpers, etc.) for said SPI flash? The ROCK 3A has something like it, but I don't think the mechanism uses an SPI flash chip's intended WP control pin.

Hi, As I can see on latest kernel for beta/trunk Armbian: https://imola.armbian.com/beta/pool/main/l/linux-6.18.6/linux-image-current-meson64_26.2.0-trunk.281_arm64__6.18.6-Sb6fe-D8ec8-Pe0be-C7d3eH1ff9-HK01ba-Ve377-Bc630-R448a.deb There is no module ip_tables (should be under /lib/modules/6.18.6-current-meson64/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/), so iptables does not work: "modprobe: FATAL: Module ip_tables not found in directory /lib/modules/6.18.6-current-meson64" Is this intentional? Thank you!

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 ?

Hi, First of all: Thank you for all the great work that you're doing, Igor! I really appreciate it. I think about buying a PCDuino3 Nano board and I'd like to install your Debian Jessie Vanilla kernel image on it. However, the current download page states that NAND support is not implemented yet. Can you tell (approximately) how soon it will be supported? Or are there other ways to install the image to the NAND flash? Thank you in advance!

Hi, I own a Orange PI Plus 2 with SATA support. Until now without success I tried to migrate from a SD boot / HDD root setup, which is my current well working situation, to a SD boot / SSD root setup. I created two partitions on the SSD created a swap device on sda1 and root device on sda2 like on the HDD. Performed mkswap on /dev/sda1 and copied the HDD root filesystem to the SSD root file system to be /dev/sda2 using ' find . -print | cpio -pdvm' on a spare laptop with two SATA ports. I even copied the UUID from the root partition of the HDD to the root partition of the SSD. Next I configured the system by changing the root device in armbianEnv.t…

Hello, I have the following problem: A custom board (H5) doesn't reboot using the reboot command. Same problem from u-boot using reset command. If you check the log, all is normal for the halt or power off proccess. The problem happens when the board is going to make the power on, it hangs, and you can't see anything using the debug serial. As a solution, i can reset the voltage regulators using a digital GPIO pin. Of this way i am able to reset the board. But i need a soft solution, and of course, if linux itself makes a reboot it should activate the digital GPIO pin in this custom board. So my question is: …

Dear guys, Recently i am trying to install Armbian on orange pi pc plus using Mobaxterm but for some reason after finishing the installation it shows only Armbian-config screen but not the GUI interface. I don't know if I installed it right or wrong. Hope everyone can help me because this is a subject project of mine in university. Thanks so much.

I ran "apt-get dist-upgrade" on armbian 8.8 and got 8.10. Then I ran apt-get install linux-dtb-next-sunxi linux-headers-next-sunxi linux-image-next-sunxi Now the system has been busy with Setting up linux-headers-next-sunxi (5.41) ... Compiling headers - please wait ... for four days - since friday morning. The system is actually running make & gcc, with changing PIDs so it really /does/ something. I just wonder how long this is gonna take. Hardware is a Banana Pi Router R1

This is on a 4GB NanoPi M4 v1. There are a number of files matching the spec '/etc/ssh/ssh_host_*' but they are all zero bytes, which renders the machine inaccessible by ssh. I'm pretty sure this is happening on every install, I've been troubleshooting and reinstalled several times from the latest image and ssh was not working at any time.

I'm running Armbian 20.08.1 (Ubuntu) in NanoPi NEO3, and after running sbc-bench,sh benchmark, the temperature does not revert to the idle temperature for several hours until exactly 4am. The system was idle all that time, until a small CPU usage spike at 4am. That's because it rebooted at that time, maybe due to a short power failure. So what confuses me a lot is why the idle temperature will get back to around 60C only after a reboot. 11 hours of idle time would not do it, but a simple reboot would magically drop the temperature by close to 15C.

Hi, I have a really strange situation, which I don't understand and for so - I need help to solve it. I had 2 rockpi, one with sata hat which plays the nas role and one without sata drives, which is my frontend for home cinema (connected to AVR and beamer). Last few days I had the effect that the frontend froze and after close examination it turned out that all memory was used up. Fortunately, I already had a new rockpi with 1,4Gb memory. I thought I'd just change the eMMC and go on as before. But that was probably a big mistake. The new one did not start at all with the eMMC from the 1.2Gb rockpi. That's why I thought I had to compl…

armbian-config has a way to update the kernel within a major version but can one upgrade from 5.15 to 6.1 (current/edge). I assume if not then I have to build my own image? What I am after is jammy or bullseye with 6.1 kernel to support some hardware not supported in 5.15. I know the rolling releases (Lunar/Sid) have this kernel but I need a LTS release with 6.1.

Hello, Does anyone of you ever have done power consumption measurement or any statistic? For my Orange Pi cluster I have build up a simple circuit, to measure the total current (ampere) [1]. If all my nodes are powered off and my cubietruck and a orange Pi are powered on, the measured current is about 2A. It looks like that the Orange Pi One does not Consume a significant amount of current, if it is idle. And he is idle for about 90% of time. In case of all of that my 5 OrangePi PC nodes, the Orange PI One and my cubietruck is powered on, the measured current is about 7A what gives a power consumption of ~ 35Watt. Which is the power consumption when every node / host…

Good afternoon, I have just started studying the use of embedded arm linux for single-board computers. I'm asking for help from experienced developers. I have an orange pi lite. I uploaded a prebuild minimal armbian image to the microsd card: Armbian_community_25.5.0-trunk.444_Orangepilite_bookworm_current_6.12.23_minimal.img.xz .After that, I installed mate desktop environment according to these instructions: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/28786-install-mate-desktop-to-minimal-image-blues/. The problem is that the processor heats up very much under load (I registered a temperature of 95 degrees celsius using armbianmonitor) and periodically turns off due to overheating.…

I'm currently in the process of deciding between the Orange Pi 3B and the Raspberry Pi 4, and i'd love to hear your thoughts. I know that Raspberry Pi has a huge community and a ton of resources, which is super appealing for someone like me who's looking to learn and tinker. The support from the community is definitely a big selling point, especially since I'm just starting out. That said, l'm also considering the Orange Pi because it's much more affordable. The price difference is hard to ignore and l have heard it's a pretty solid option for DlY projects and development. Plus, l'm thinking ahead - l might want to stick with Orange Pi for future projects as well, sin…

Howdy, everyone! My apologies if this answer is available elsewhere, but I haven't been able to find it. I'm trying to better understand Armbian's policy toward closed-source components. Discussions on closed-components often times get confusing because "component" is overloaded, so I'm separating "components" into several categories: 1. Firmware/microcode that is loaded into hardware but never executed by the operating system itself 2. Drivers that operate in kernel space (often called "binary blobs") 3. Software that runs in user space 4. Firmware for "autonomous subsystems" or "coprocessors" like the Intel Management Engine or ThreadX on the Ra…

ix.io/48Zd I've simply installed Armbian 22.05 Jammy Kernel 5.15.y, Size: 307Mb, Updated: Jul 2, 2022 on my aforementioned subject title / tagged OrangePiPCPlus. I can't seem to get hassio to install with armbian-config and then with Software > Softy it doesn't seem like the image for homeassistant io gets pulled, because when I check with docker images list or docker ps I don't get anything returned. Plus the checkbox isn't checked in Soft for hassio when I go back. What could I be doing wrong here? I did install Docker first, anyone have any tips?

Device rk3399 I have installed Waydroid and installed an application to watch videos But some of the videos were found to have issues (Does the playback speed increase like frame skipping? The sound has also changed) Because I don't know if it's a GPU issue with the firmware itself or if it's caused by not using Waydroid,So I want to know how to test whether GPU is used in Linux Did the installed Waydroid use GPU

There was a critical vulnerability found in Realtek wireless drivers: The vulnerability has been assigned CVE-2019-17666 and a patch proposed: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/10/16/1226 I would like to get some statement if Armbian users are affected and if yes when is the patch going to be released Thanks

The long explanation is here Before: # dmesg ...... [ 9.606887] thermal_sys: Failed to find 'trips' node [ 9.606902] thermal_sys: Failed to find trip points for thermal-sensor id=1 [ 9.606923] sun8i-thermal 1c24c00.thermal-sensor: Failed to register sensor 1 (-EINVAL) [ 9.606938] sun8i-thermal: probe of 1c24c00.thermal-sensor failed with error -22 ...... My patch for sun8i-r40.dtsi. Yes, it's copy-paste with changing names of a cpu thermal trip point for a gpu thermal trip point. Now it's ok # ls /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/ cooling_device0 thermal_zone0 thermal_zone1 fix_gpu_thermal_zone_sun8i-r40_bananapi-m2u.patch

I have FriendlyElect CM3588 (RK3588 based) Nas kit which is lagging behind in terms of incorporating the latest NPU driver (the current is 0.9.3) in their firmwares. Thier repository contains Ubuntu / Debian with Kernels 6.1.x As far as I know the latest RKNPU version is 0.9.6. and as I understand there is no OS on Armian tailored for CM3588. What is best way to get the lastest driver?

Hi, I'm first time to lean that " Orange Pi" and Debian Linux system, I have two questions. 1. How to change that the scree picture or character after typing user name/password. 2. How to starting my own program after system boot-up finished. My program is connect to copy machine it will catch that using status and send back to server. Thanks

Hi I've got both left and right channels working of my analog audio jack. The quality is quite good as long as Master audio isn't set above volume 15 - 20 or so. Toggling DAC or DAC-Reversed in Alsamixer will enable or disable the physical left and right physical speakers of ear buds. However! On both channels, the left and right software signals are mixed. So if I use "aplay stereo-file.wav", I hear left+right mixed through my separate left ear. Listening to my right earbud, same story: I hear left+right audio mixed. Please help, I can't even find any snd_ module flags to mess with. I've no pulseaudio installed on this latest stable server edition of …

Hi. I have a Rock S0 that used to have Armbian 24.11 that I build from source, with these options: BRANCH=current BUILD_MINIMAL=yes KERNEL_CONFIGURE=no RELEASE=bookworm NETWORKING_STACK=network-manager ROOTFS_TYPE=btrfs I have installed three device overlays on this board for SPIdev and LED GPIOs. I shared these overlays in the Rock S0 subforum. They worked fine on 24.11 and earlier. But then I updated to 25.2 using apt upgrade. Now, my user overlays seem to be ignored. They don't do anything and it doesn't look like they were even attempted to be loaded, because I cannot find any reference to them in dmesg or anything. I tried removing …

Thanks to help in another thread to solve our eMMC problems, we are making progress getting Armbian working well on the H2+ boards we have. Now we would like to be able to make a snapshot of the eMMC device and then be able to write the whole image to another board. I have been able to create a single file backup using both these methods (done after booting from SD). The created files appear to be the same size. dd if=/dev/mmcblk1 bs=16M | gzip -c > /mnt/usbflash/emmc.img.gz or ./backup_block_device.sh (from https://code.online-mp.pl/svn/public/backup_block_device/trunk/) To write the image, we'd like to use FEL. …

Does anybody here have experience with the Beagleboard ? It doesn't seem to be supported on this site. It also seems to be rather old? But it's the only board I can find with open hardware/firmware. Any opinions, hints, ideas, other suggestions for truly open hardware?

How/where do i set how active screen appears? it covers(out of screen) task bar. it doesn't have minimize full or exit option. Can't drag. Alt +f4 doesn't work.

Hello, new here. I'm trying to build a headless environment for my ORDOID N2 based on a stable Debian (hence Buster), but I need some packages which aren't in the Buster repo (e.g. a CLang >7). I've tried following some instructions I found for adding Bullseye testing repo, and it makes the packages available, but the installation doesn't go well. Is this an unreasonable thing to attempt? Can anyone offer any guidance for how to get newer packages onto my Buster build? (anyone know when Bullseye will become the stable release?)

Hi, I have an Orange Pi Zero and I installed Armbian Xenial with xfce and tightvncserver. Everything works well but I couldn't use local mouse and keyboard, is it possible to use them? Sorry for my bad english.

Hi! There are Images for an old/original Lemaker "Banana Pi" up to 03/2021 in the archive, but from that time onward it seems like only "Banana Pi Pro" is supported with new images. Is it possible and save to use such "Banana Pi Pro"-image for the old Banana Pi too or should I stick to the last archived version of the "Banana Pi"-image? Datasheet looks almost identically, both with same SOC Allwinner20 and CPU CortexA7 and only the SD-slot and GPIO-pins are different, so I thought I'd try the Pro-Image, which also does install and run ok. But I have strange issues running some software (iobroker) afterwards, so I'm not sure if this migh…

Hi guys I's possible to convert .bin file to text file. Could someone help me to do that. thank you

I've been messing with my OPi5+ for several days now and I cannot for the life of me get my USB Wifi dongle to work. When I input " lsusb " the OPi shows my dongle as plugged in but it just doesn't work. I've tried to compile the Wifi dongle drivers (RTL8188eu) manually but that fails with a "python2 error". I've tried updating the Armbian headers and firmware and nothing works. I've tried both the OPi OS and Armbian OS and on both images the board will just not read my Wifi dongle. My USB Bluetooth dongle Plugs and Plays just fine, only the Wifi dongle is inoperable. So my question is how in the hell do I get the Edimax N150 USB Wifi dongle to work…

When i run from sdcard on first boot it asks a series of questions and sets up the sd card. Image from here: https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-4-lts/ I then run ambian-install to install to emmc, then reboot. At this point it asks for a login, and the default (root 1245) doesnt work, or the ones i created on the sd card do not work! How can i login to the device after install and configure it?

Hello. I've an BananaPi H3 with Armbian Stretch 5.73 and 4.19.17-sunxi. I use this with USB HDD for Plex DLNA media server, Amule and other service. I've a strange problem with network interface. The Bananapi ( IP 192.168.1.41) is connect to a Mikrotik RB260 switch. in the same swith is connected a NAS ( IP 192.168.1.21). The switch is connect to the router RB4011 (IP 192.168.1.1). When i've start the service Amule and PlexMediaServer, i've difficult to ping the router 192.168.1.1 and the connection is foult and i've ~1500ms ping, but if i ping 192.168.1.21 ( in the same switch), the connection is OK and i've 0ms ping. If i ping 192.1…

Hello, I've bought a USB Bluetooth adaptor on Amazon and wanted to try it on my Armbian device, an Orange Pi Zero. The installed system is Armbian Focal (Ubuntu). That adaptor seems to have the Realtek rtl8761a chip, according to the error message in syslog. The firmware could not be found. It should be included in the "firmware-realtek" package but that doesn't exist. I couldn't find anything else that provides that firmware. That USB adaptor has an average rating, a second one I've also ordered has a better rating. Both have the same chip inside. Both don't work on a current Windows 10 because the unsigned driver from Realtek (to be downloaded fr…

Hi, not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I just dug up an old banana pi m2plus (with on board wifi) and flashed the latest Armbian_21.08.1_Bananapim2plus_bullseye_current_5.10.60 on a class 10 samsung evo micro sd. When booting for the first time I had a monitor, keyboard and LAN attached and successfully set up users with the wizard and apt upgrade the system. Now I tried to set up wifi with "nmtui-connect SSID " after this guide: https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Getting-Started/ where SSID is the SSID of my network, but I get "No such connection 'SSID' " and I can only confirm. If I open the networkmanager with it looks like …

Hi! Yesterday I get my first build of a NanoPi port of pi4j (http://pi4j.com/) running. A simple test with a double color led on a NanoPi M1 works fine. Actually I am going to adapt the board specific code. Hence some questions are open. Is there a simple way to differ NanoPi Boards by SW (NanoPi M1, Neo and Air) to set the correct board? Memory size of the board The Raspberry code uses the revision string of /proc/cpuinfo to retrieve this informations. But this info is PI specific. Any idea how to get this info? Using C is not a problem - pi4j is a mix of Java and native libraries. Peter P.S: Java Example File - …

So I've got this 88SE9215 based board that is similar to the ones already posted except that it uses single SAS port instead of x4 SATA ports. The board comes with a splitter cable 1 SAS to 4 SATA + LED head. The cable is completely compatible with the board as the seller claims. I will attach pictures below. The board is detected (as per below), but if I attach disks they do not show up in the system at all. dmesg has no new messages and the disk is shutdown after 20-30 seconds (parks head and stops the motor) with lsscsi showing nada. Any thoughts on why I cant get it work? Now when I plug this board and boot, from `dmesg | grep ata` I get 4 new …

Hello, I have been using armbian for a couple of months now developing a small product, and this is my issue... When the OS boots, it gets directly to the Desktop environmet and never asks for a password (unless for a supervisor function form the terminal) I need one of the following options... 1) OS ask for password before let yo do anything on the desktop 2) It boots onto a console and ask for password (then you can manually start the Desktop) Any Help will be apreciated..! Best Regards

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.

Hi everyone! I've just got a new odroid c4 and am trying to hook it up to a small i2c oled display. I've wired it up to the I2C A SCA and SCL pins with 3.3V and GND as needed, and enabled both I2C A and B in armbian-config. However, when I run i2cdetect -y 0 I get the device grid with a 30 in position 30 and nothing else, both with the display hooked up or not, nothing changes. Is there anything obvious I might have missed to get I2C running? Thanks in advance for your help!

Dear all, I come with a basic question: is armbian for H3 advanced enough and without roadblocks future proof, or is it still risky? Should it soon become mainline or for one or more years, it will be mainly for advanced users? I need to set-up a Openelec platform with software DSP features (ALSA, LADSPA, SOX...). I need easy to setup audio features (over USB, I2S, HDMI). I'm far from being a Linux expert. I don' t know how to compile an image, I discover SBC world.... I don't want to enter in too steep learning curve, and be able to focus on my project. Are H3 and Orange pi products ok for me, or would you advice to go directly to Rpi? I understand that there…
