I don't know how to explain this, so I start with my hardware: Two Odroid HC1. I love swapping Kernels, default was 5.4.199 but that was "too old" because I like it bleeding edge. Did upgrade both to 5.17.5 and it works like a charm! Really good performance and some errors from dmesg disappeared too! However the problems did not wait for long: Kernel 5.19.x broke fstrim commands on my SATA drives so I rolled back, everything was good on 5.17.5 again. My logs showed TRIM was supported and running again, cheers! Now to the actual problem at hand and this might be my own doing. I froze the upgrades in armbian-config. Thinking this would prevent upgrading to the n…

Hi all, I have a Rock64, running ioBroker, and want to update the npm/nodejs to update all the adapters - mainly MQTT with which I have some problems.

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

Hi folks, I'm running armbian on a Banana Pi 1st generation, so far no probs. Indeed it runs very stable. The armbian is a debian jessie. Is it possible or recommended to update to stretch via the official debian upgrade path ? The armbian is fully updated Welcome to ARMBIAN 5.36 user-built Debian GNU/Linux 8 (jessie) 4.13.16-sunxi I'm running an nginx php stack on the BaPi. But what about stretch ? Can I do a dist-upgrade ? Sorry if this has already been discussed. Thanks in advance for replies :-)

I have Google assistant running on Armbian on an Orange Pi Lite headless system. The sound output is via a USB sound card, as the Orange Pi Lite does not have n audio jack, but the volume is too low, even with volume set to max on alsamixer.

An hour a go I powered down my Neo Core 2 and now I can't get it to boot properly. When I hook it to the serial Monitor this is the output. It tries to load the "-fixup.scr" file in the /boot/dtb/allwinner/overlay folder but of course this is not available. With the extfls command I searched the folder and those two files would be available: sun50i-h5-fixup.scr sun50i-a64-fixup.scr The "sun50i-h5-fixup.scr" would be the right one for my processor however why does it choose "-fixup.scr" instead?

hello everyone, i realized, that the new armbian-images (buster & bionic kernel 5.10.y) on a nanopi neo core / air will have some problems. i can build the sd-card and the nano boots up and gets an ip-address. but if i try to login via ssh (headless installation) i got the "access denied" msg. something gona wrong with the user root & the init-password (1234). so i try to install focal (same kernel) and it works. somebody got the same problem like me? ore resolve that? kind regards andre

Hello all I have a many questions, but I will start off with the 2 I need to be helped on. 1: The Le Potato needs butter and sour cream. HAHA I has to say it... I am running the newest flavor of Armbian created in the last few weeks (Armbian 22.08 Jammy XFCE Kernel 5.10.y, Size: 1263Mb, Updated: Aug 30, 2022). I am new on to a non Pi bd so forgive me on the differences. After loading imaging and updating (or not) the board any time I try to do a full shutdown, all it does is reboot. After I get this to work I will work on my other issue below. 2: I would like to use this as a replacement for Pi 3A+ on a remote solar powered weather station …

Hi, I'm running Armbian Ubuntu Server on my Neo2 and works quite good. I just can't install Wireguard. I have installed kernel headers from armbian config, bit still fails. I use the ppa repo. Kernel stable latest, 4.19.57 Any ideas how to proceed and install?

Hello to everyone! I'm trying to solve the issue which is currently being discussed here and I've been forced to revert back to the ancient version in the title. The problem is that along with my OPi PC I use a cheap wireless adapter based on the MT7601. Here, I've found out that the support for these cards had been merged to upstream since 4.2 kernel versions indeed with Armbian Focal 5.10.4-sunxi it worked out of the box like a charm. Unfortunately, it isn't the case with the version I'm currently on, this adding another massive headache! I've found this really interesting thread where it is discussed how to add support for the MT7601. Everything went fine apart …

Thanks to all the good contribution. I was able to follow the instructions by @janng0 and @xeniter and got the fuses burned. I was able to write TOC0 to SPL with the jemk script and put the SPL to my SD card and it is booting! But... The Bootprocess hangs after "Found device /dev/ttyS0" (i am using a dietpi image). I was using sunxi-spl.bin from git://git.denx.de/u-boot.git after checking out the same version of u-boot as in my dietpi image (2020.10) and compiling it leaving default configs in menuconfig. do I need to enable more features during u-boot compilation? Where did you get your sunxi-spl.bin get from?

Hello, It has been years that I am using armbian and I would like to thank all the developers that contributed to this project. It is a really amazing work. I am writing this topic to see if someone faced the same issue that I have. I am using the nanopi neo core + minishield with the following image : Armbian_5.75_Nanopineo_Debian_stretch_next_4.19.20. I am using the SSD as my root file system. When I boot this equipment, it works without any problem.

Hello, I'm new here. I started using the armbian OS 2 days ago, and I'm facing some problems when running some web-server transfers due to lack of space on /tmp.

Hello, I'm picking up my pine64 SBC for the first time in a long while. I want to have an always-on linux system for some home projects and this board ought to work nicely as I don't need any desktop running on it. Looking over the OS images available I decided to give opensuse a try; got it installed and running with no trouble. But it seems the 1.344GHz max speed of the board can't be enabled on this build, as the scaling_max_freq is set to 1.152GHz and no amount of "cpupower frequency-set -g ondemand -u 1344000" will convince it to go above 1.152GHz. I can go lower, just not higher. pine64:~ # cpupower frequency-set -g ondemand -u 1104000 Setting cpu: 0…

Hi! I'm running a Odroid C2 as a SAT->IP-Server for some time having two DVBSky S960 attached to the USB-Ports of the Odroid. The Odroid itsself has a nightly of Armbian installed: 5.38.180128 (4.14.15) and runs a self-compiled tvheadend on it. No big problems so far. As you released a stable stretch-image some time ago, i thought: give it a try! So I flashed the image to my 8GB EMMC, installed all updates, built tvheadend on it and installed it. Everything runs like a charm. Until...I try to use the DVBSky S960 on the USB-Port. Of course I installed the correct driver for it and the device seems to be detected correctly and the drivers are bein…

Hello, I've installed armbian s912 stretch debian desktop 5.75 on my video game console board, Pandora's box X 3d or 7, they're the same. That's run perfectly but i have just one usb port functional and I want tu use an usb hub(4ports) for adding and use my mouse and a Wi-Fi adapter but it doesn't work because only one device work, if I plug 2 devices, that doesn't work much. and lsusb command doesn't show the 4 hub's ports.

Dear all, My Orange Pi plus 2E was working fine before. I was able to install both the desktop / server version to the eMMC. However, one day I try to run a benchmarch & speedtest script from tocdo.net, the Pi freeze and unable to boot from eMMC ever since. I've tried to boot the Pi with an SD, it's working fine. I tried to format the eMMC - no problem at all, but when I tried to install the OS to the eMMC, it's always stuck at around 55% (for the server version) and 10% (for the desktop version). I try to run the command from URAT, SSH and the local PC itself but not working. Can you advise on this case? Below is the log from URAT: …

Hi, I have a question about maximum memory support on Allwinner processors, inc. A20 and A64. In datasheet I see: A20:"Support 2GB address space" A64:"up to 3GB address space" Does these mean the maximum installable memory on them? on the other hand, in official page, written that A64 has 1GB memory support! it is confusing.

Hi I'm trying to get the SPI ports to work in a RockPi 4B board.

NanoPC-T4 only has 16GRAM, which is still a bit small for daily use. So I want to put u-boot on emmc or sd card, and install the system on nvme solid state drive. If I want to realize this function, can the armbian-config tool help me realize it quickly? Or do I need to set u-boot parameters and compile by myself, thus installing the system in nvme SSD?

I noticed the BPI-M4 Zero is supported. It's the same SoC as the BPI-M4 Berry and mostly the same hardware (8GB eMMC, 2GB RAM). The main differences seem to be the ports. Is there a chance the image would work? Is the BPI-M4 Berry possibly going to get support?

I am running bookworm on my Odroid HC4, upgraded from buster. USB stopped working, which I believe to be U-Boot related. So I am looking for a newer version of the U-Boot package "linux-u-boot-odroidhc4-current", which is at 26.2.1.

I am not so keen on compiling it myself, so is there a way of finding/downloading/installing a newer package...?

Usually, when I configure SBC devices (in particular headless as the OPI Zero), what I do is to disable NetworkManager (even uninstalling it) and to provide a basic standard configuration on /etc/network/interfaces. However, I am noticing that the NetworkManager it is becoming more and more interleaved on the standard Linux configuration (as it is happening with systemd). In fact, my thought is that NetworkManager it is more a desktop thing than a server one. My question is: What is the right method to configure static servers, having unmovable IP addresses, routes and these types of things, with current and future Armbian releases? If it is nec…

Hi, i have installed the latest Armbian 23.5 Jammy on my opi+2e and since then, only the top left of the screen is showing text, like if the screen is divided in 4 and only the upper left is showing login screen and text.

WTF is going on? Why don't you test the images before you publish?

Guys i have an orange pi zero 3 with 4GB RAM running a tiny proxmox 8.3.2 and everything was ok, i used the ./compile.sh command in /build to create a custom kernel with KVM enabled to get this to work a few months ago, now i have updated the system but the kernel installed has no support for KVM, obviously i want to use the standard procedure to recompile the kernel re-enabling the KVM but i dont know how, i know there is a way to pass commands to ./compile.sh but from what i have seen i dont know where or how to pass to the program the fact that i want KVM support enabled, i have seen things like this: apt -y install git git clone https://github.com/armbia…

Hi all, I use orange pi one + armbian + wavesahe 7 inch display. I got a problem with Touchscreen does not work.

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.

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

I am using Armbian 4.14 kernel on a custom board. As soon as the boards boots up I get a lot of oops and memory address fault. Software works on another board that use same memory and mtest always succeeds on faulty board even with complementary patterns. I have got the feedback that this new memory belongs to the newest revision level so SDRAM parameters needs to be updated. However I am using the 4.14 kernel so .fex configuration is not taken into consideration by the kernel, although initialize the SDRAM controller is bootloader->SPL's duty. Anyone knows how to update SDRAM parameters without using .fex config file or compile u-boot and SP…

Not posting everything I've tried, just wanted to ask a question of people experienced with the H3. Does it really support slave I2S in the mainline kernel? I've seen it posted in multiple forums that it does, and the datasheet and user manual says it does, but I can not get it working. Has anyone seen this work in person? I had to hack up the sun4i-i2s.c driver around mclk / bclk generation to make it happy just to even try it, and confirmed that all register settings look good. But the DMA just doesn't seem to transfer data when in clock slave mode. It doesn't seem like any cpu using sun4i-i2s should work in clock slave mode.

Hello. I saw all topics about armbian on Q8, Q88 tablets, but some of them are dead with no success, some say, that it is working somehow for someone. I understand, that armbian more tended to be for boards, but come on! There is a huge pile of tablets, that uses same processors, memory, wifi and other chips, and there is a sun5i-a13-q8-tablet.dtb in /boot/dtb of an image of armbian. So, I compiled custom Armbian image using olinuxinoA13 configuration as there wasn't any for q8-tablet. Wrote or burned it with USB Image Writer (I'm on Linux Mint 19 Cinamon) on SD card, mounted it, edited ArmbianEnv.txt line disp_mode=800x480p60. Put SD in tablet, pushed on button... s…

BUSTER DESKTOP - GLOBAL: https://www.armbian.com/orange-pi-plus-2e/#kernels-archive-all I downloaded this on 2 different computers and got a bad checksum when I ran "sha256sum name.img". Wondering if anyone else is as well? I may have remote access malware on my computer - could be causing it somehow, possibly. Thanks.

My OTG port is not functioning

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 …

I would like to make myself more familiar with the early linx boot process on ARM (u-boot, device trees and co.) and my idea was that I will start tweaking with something which actually works. I tried to figure out how to obtain the source package for u-boot (in my case for linux-u-boot-orangepi3-lts-current) but the armbian package repository seem to contain obly binaries. Any idea wherethe source packages for this binaries are located (e.g. what deb-src line do I need to add to the armbian.list to make "apt-get source" to work)?

Hello everyone, I am trying to build a custom image of Armbian for the Radxa CM3, but I'm a little confused with how to proceed. I thought if I cloned the repo I could modify a similar board configuration file (such as rock-3a.conf) by renaming a copy as radxa-cm3.conf and changing BOOT_FDT_FILE to use my own device tree, but this is where I got lost. I'm not sure where to put the device tree in the cloned repo so that it gets used during the build process. I'm also not sure if I would need to change BOOTCONFIG as well, and if so where to find the file to modify. Any and all advice to point me in the right direction is appreciated! Thanks! …

Hy i use octoprint on my orange pi. Now i need to resart and shutdown the system by octoprint. So i try shutdown -h 0 or systemctl poweroff nothing will work, cause i need to authenti. the user by password. so i tried to add the user to the sudoers... not work this is my line. i added the code at the end of the file myuser ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /sbin/shutdown

I have a Odroid XU4 board that I am trying to build an image for and it will not boot from any images I have built from the compile.sh pulled from github. The board u-boot led doesn't turn on (solid blue) and nothing is displayed from the hdmi port. I select SD card image and have tried writing it with Win32 imager, Etcher, and the dd command. I did get an Ubuntu image downloaded from Odroid to work so the board is not faulty. Nothing has worked and I'm at a loss as to why when I personally compile an image it does not work. Thanks for the help

I am using kernel 4.9 built from https://github.com/megous/linux and tried DTB plus/plus2E in a custom distro ,But the ethernet isn't working. ifconfig: SIOCGIFFLAGS: No such device ifconfig: SIOCSIFADDR: No such device route: SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable What could be the reason?

Hello, I have the Odroid XU4 since january, but a proper installation of Yunohost is impossible... I tried to install Debian Server, but I encounter an error in the reposites.

Greetings everyone! I'm having some issues with my Armbian installation. I have an Orange Pi PC 2 (64 bit H5 SoC). I followed the procedure for installing Armbian on my Sd card (reliable one, recently bought as new) using Etcher (so errors won't occur). The SSH daemon works, nmap lists port 22 as open, yet whenever I try to ssh to root ("root@10.42.0.1", where 10.42.0.1 is the IP given by the shared wired network to this connection) even after I wait like 10 minutes or so, it doesn't work (Permission denied). Thing is I don't own a keyboard and a HDMI cable, or UART cable, so I went for this "headless" approach. I know it's possible, but SSH won't …

Hi, I updated from legacy kernel to mainline and then from jessie to stretch. Armbianmonitor -u output is further below. So far, the main issue is that after rebooting the DNS server is set to 127.0.0.1 thus loosing internet connectivity. Here is the output of resolve.conf (with manual setting the nameserver after reboot ) and the static network config. I am struggling to find how the dns server is set after reboot. I would appreciate if anyone could point me to a HOW TO. Minor issues: I can see only one cpu with htop, the ip address is not recognized at the ssh login screen, the opi pc is recognized as opi lite at the ssh login screen …

Hello. I’m try to run Armbian on my Kurio 7S tablet (https://linux-sunxi.org/Kurio_7S) with Allwinner A20 CPU. I built Armbian image for Cubietrack with USB Gadget Support (https://linux-sunxi.org/USB_Gadget/Ethernet) and ran it using SD-card. But, the micro USB port isn’t active. I need micro USB to connect keyboard to enter a password and for the further configuring Armbian. The micro USB port perfect works in Android on the NAND of the tablet. What am I doing wrong?

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

Hi, is there some specific reason why there is a kernel linux-source-5.8.16-sunxi as part of packages repository, but headers for such a version are missing? I saw similar post https://forum.armbian.com/topic/8347-install-linux-headers/ without any solution, but if there is a kernel package why the headers are missing? I assume headers were used during the build process... thanks

I have successfully got my Rock pi4b with M.2 NVME storage to run Armbian 21.05.6 Focal and its really fast. I have installed the current stable version of KStars / Ekos and all works well except for my guide camera which is a Toupcam GCMOS 01200KMB. The camera works fine on my Raspberry Pi4 but won't connect on the rock pi4b running Armbian. Anyone else seen this problem? Any ideas on how to solve?

Hello all and I apologise for the rather long subject title there. A bit of a mouthful :-) I can understand how to create a .dts/.dtb file from an already running existing linux system on an arm based device. But what about if there is no linux image to run on it? Is it possible to take the device tree from an android device and then turn that into a .dts/.dtb file? Also am I correct in saying that pretty much the first thing that would be needed to boot any sort of linux on an arm device like this (R69 box) is a working .dts/.dtb file so it can boot? Case in point is my old R69 TV box. It always was and remains problematic in booting old thread but wa…

About 6 months ago I started a music project with the Raspberry PI Zero 2W. The project is a module to generate weird and wonderful drone music/sounds (example here) Because of the fact that it's nearly impossible to got hold of the Raspberry PI Zero 2W, I want to "port" the project to an alternative and available board with the same footprint and pinout; the BPI M2 Zero would be perfect. I have quite a challenge though; See image: The exact setup below with an Raspberry PI Zero 2W (O/S: Bullseye 11) and the install procedure described here, runs absolutely fine --- but now I want this setup to run on the BPI M2 Zero (O/S: "Armbian_20.05.1_Ba…

Hi team! This may be the stupidest question ever… I am a long time Debian user. I have a project in mind where I plan to setup a dual node HA Haproxy balancer. This is pretty straightforward in Debian but I am wondering, is HAproxy even available for armbian?. I do not plan to have a big throughput for these HAproxy nodes, is for a homelab and more for fun than for production purposes… The idea is to use the cheapest dual gigabit board available, that’s why I will probably go for nanopi (which supports armbian). English is not my first language so sorry in advance for messed up wording/expressions/whatever. …

I just installed Armbian 4.2 and then upgraded it to Armbian 4.6 using the Armbian APT repositories. I am running Debian Jessie with the sunxi kernel 3.4.109 on a Cubieboard 2.

Hey Guys You had been amazing, I'm had used your armbian and I'm very proud of it. I reache to run it very well over my OPi Plus 2 SE and OPi One, without major troubles. But instruction to get a booteable sd copy of current emmc It is not understandable, regardless if is a backpup, a clone, a dd command or a sript to do do over the sd port or to a usb sd card... I could not reach resolve it, because there are many topics with many comment and the main tread explanation is lost. Please, can anyone, write a clear step by step procedure to do any of it?, Sorry and Regards, Pescadito

I have read a few articles on kodi on Armbian. I am currently using RetrOrangePi as it is close to what i want. What i want is: A linux desktop - dont care which one Kodi with h/w acceleration RetrOranagePi does this but boots up into ES then you have to go to the desktop and currently i can't get kodo it run from desktop, so i have to go back into ES to run Kodi and i think (not sure) i can't update the os. so can i get the RetrOrangePi working kodi on an Armbian os? cheers

Hi, I ran into an issue when configuring ssh. As it seems, ssh listens only to the first interface that is enabled (it seems it is always eth0). Probably, if I set a listen to 192.168.x.x in the config file of the sshd (same as the IP set in the wlan0), and a different network on the ethernet, it would work, but as I won't be using ethernet I would rather disable it completly. I tried already ifdown, ifconfig down, ifconfig eth0 down && rmmod -f sunxi_gmac, and some others. I even tried removing nmtui just to check if that was causing the problem. all what that step does is removing the bond0 interface (something I would like to do too). I checke…

UPDATE: Today I build it again and now it's working, I think someone has change something. Thank you :-) OLD: I created an new board, based on the lime-a33.conf with BOOTCONFIG="q8_a33_tablet_1024x600_defconfig" and build a Debian Stretch Image with mainline Kernel 4.13 / 4.14. The SD Card is booting with a nice screen output but only to Kernel Boot, then the screen freezes. The Serial connection is only in the SD Adapter and I cant use it if I'm booting from it, or is there a possibility ?? I was checking devuan.org and this Image is booting the Tablet, with Kernel 4.1x. So I want to debug the Armbian Kernel wit…

Hi I have an Odroid HC1 which has been happily running along for a while now. The OS has been moved onto the SATA drive I used arminian-config to run the updates but the reboot failed. I found this post which may be related but I am not sure. As the OS is on the SATA drive I can't log in to check what is happening with the data drive. I attached a small video to that post to show what is happening with the HC1's lens when I attempt to boot it. I really need to get this server back up as it has my Nextcloud instance on it. Any help appreciated Jon

Hi guys, I'm trying to share internet access from wireless Wlan0 to Ethernet Eth0 port to connect a SIP phone to the PBX asterisk server; nevertheless as the Asterisk server has source IP filtering, i have to establish a VPN tunnel with and openVPN server that has static public IP who already had a granted IP to access the Asterisk server. I'm using Armbian (buster) with Linux 5.9.14-sunxi on a OPI Zero plus H2, nevertheless, i guess this is not a hardware problem. I have no issues to install and connect openVPN what creates a new tap adapter tap0 with the assigned IP from server, once connected the Zero Plus starts accessing internet thru the tap adapter…

I have been using my OPi 5 for several months with Armbian on my NVMe ssd. I decided to shift my SSDs around, and removed the one that was in my OPi5 and put in a new one. I burned the latest Armbian 23.8 Bookworm Cinnamon dated Aug 31, 2023 using BalenaEtcher onto an SD card, put it in the OPi5, and it booted fine. I did apt update and upgrade, no problems. I ran nand-sata-install hoping to transfer the system to the ssd and it failed. My memory is fuzzy due to panic setting in, but I tried the Jameschambers process to copy the system over, and then tried to boot off the ssd card, and it failed. When I tried armbian-config it failed to update the MTD and reported no s…

I have an old oDroid M1 that used to have Ubuntu 20 LTS installed on, but after it bricked itself during the install of Ubuntu 22 LTS, I decided to go looking for an alternative OS (it was also really sluggish). I got pointed to Armbian, and since it officially supports the M1, I gave it a go. Unfortunately, the instructions leave much to be desired. This part just doesn't seem to actually work: > Once booted, use armbian-install to write u-boot to MTD (SPI flash). This completely and irrevocably removes Petitboot, replacing it with mainline u-boot. All of the options that appear to be what it means by "write u-boot to MTD (SPI Flash…

I'm looking for the ability to extract coarse motion estimation from the h.264 encoder. These vectors are calculated as part of the compression algorthm and should be done on the hardware in real time - just a matter of extracting them. This extraction is done on the Raspberry Pi with "raspivid -x output". It is also exposed in picamera. Does anyone know if there is a similar capability to extract the motion vectors? If not, how one might go about doing this in python/c++? thanks, philip

Hi! I'm having trouble with one (only one) of the alsamixer settings. 'MIC1 boost AMP gain control' shoots up to 71 every time I launch a program that uses sound, such as alsaloop or arecord. I've done 'sudo alsactl store', so I can get it back to zero by doing 'sudo alsactl restore'. Obviously that's not something I want to do all the time. I don't have any problems with any other settings. The setting in question completely ruins sound quality for my purposes, so I need it to stay at zero. I'm currently running 5.35 user-built Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS 3.4.113-sun8i. I've tried Debian Jessie as well.
