Hi All, I am trying to run Toxcore tests on OrangPi Zero inorder to run a tox client on this board. So far I tried clone git repositories of libsodium and opus. I did make and make install for both of them .I did not find any issues in installing them. I built them on OrangePi itself. I did not pass any crosscompiler prefixes to ./configure command while building them.My doubt is ,are these libraries compiled with armgcc or normal gcc ? I thougt whatever gcc is available on Orangepi is armgcc so I didnot pass any arguments to ./configure while building. make process was simple and passed without any isseus for bot libsodium and opus.But…

hi: I want to use my orange pi to control some network devices which has rs232 console port. so I enable uart1 as 2 pin mode, and buy some rs232-ttl converter board. then I found these rs232-ttl converters is not working under my situation. they do work when I use my PC to control orange pi (so this is RS232 -> TTL). they don't work when I use my orange pi to control rs232 device (so this is TTL-> RS232, not working). it seems there is something difference between RS232->TTL and TTL->RS232. now I wonder if TTL->RS232 possible? or I need enable 4 pin mode and find another kind of converter for the work? thanks a …

Hi there! I am using a H3 board with TV out on a small 3.5" LCD screen (with composite->RGB24 IC). But I have a problem with picture being way too bright/washed out. The LCD luminosity can be modified with LCD-driving IC buttons, when set to lower value the picture gets better but colors are still too bright (even if luminosity is low) I have tested the LCD with raspberry pi and output colors are normal. I was wondering if there is a known reason for this and if it can be fixed? So far I have just found a topic about a raspberry pi HDMI output being too bright (https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=50726) They su…

there is a problem using tvheadend package on os armbian bullseye 22.08. if you download the tvheadend package, then after installation you return back to the pseudo-graphical shell and that's it. according to the video from YouTube, people could enter the administrator login and password for authorization in the web interface. but on orange pi pc with os armbian it does not work and without knowing the login and password it is stupidly impossible to get into the web interface. help solve the problem

I can not find the tvheadend softy? version Armbian_5.38_Bananapi_Debian_stretch_next_4.14.14.7z

Tvheadend does not install in 5.35 version Debian. It misses at least one library.

Hi, I am trying to install TVheadend using Debian-micro-home-server, but no success. Armbian Wheezy with legacy kernel. See printscreen. Any idea? PM

I took the 4.10.3 kernel cause it nows how to handle my PCTV 461e. The Installation works fine. tvheadend installation.txt

Hi Igor and everyone else. Id'like to suggest the following: /etc/fstab It´s not necesary to use both noatime and nodiratime, because noatime already implies nodiratime, so you can use only the option "noatime" instead of both. When creating the ext4 filesystem with mkfs.ext4 you can type a label for it with the parameter " -L " so when the users mount their cards on a computer, the desktop will show some name instead "NO NAME". For example: # mkfs.ext4 -O ^has_journal -L Armbian /dev/mmcblk0p1 or... # mkfs.ext4 -O ^has_journal -L Cubox-i /dev/mmcblk0p1 Cheers - Klez

Running Armbian on a Rock64 (RK3328) board and in turn running pihole for DNS. I cannot seem to be able to get rid of the secondary IP address that is pulling from DHCP. the main static address I set duing pihole setup is 10.4.5.2. Any way to remove the 10.4.5.98? ifconfig from terminal only shows the .98 address.

downloads u-boot from official site. I do a compilation on the documentation and at the end an error occurs. I'm trying to optimize the code. nothing comes out. where to turn, who can exactly answer my questions?

As listed in the topic, this is my desired and actual partition table setup for a lot of my computers. The U-boot 'partition 0' is typically somewhere in sector 1 till where partition 1 starts and only for SoCs/boards that do not understand any filesystem, like Allwinner and Rockchip based platforms. Also old BIOS PCs actually. It can be MBR or GPT (+hybrid) if more than 4 partitions are needed, for multi-boot, like adding Linux to a new Win11 pre-installed PC. The FAT is ESP or just type 0x0c/0x0700. Now I am struggling a bit with the case where a preinstalled ROCK 3A (RK3568, board ordered, not delivered yet) image has FAT mounted in /boot.

Hi all, I can't find any documentation (i prob just don't know where to look), so just a quick question: I have a Mi Box S, and i can run Armbian fine on it, it uses "booti ${kernel_addr_r} ${ramdisk_addr_r} ${fdt_addr_r}" to load the kernel images, i'm assuming they are all unsigned. But i would also like to run unsigned app images (openElec/emuElec/etc) which use "bootm <kernel_addr>" but those return an error: aml log : Sig Check 1467 So my question is are you guys doing any "magic" to get it to load, or does "booti" not do a signature check where as "bootm" does? Thanks.

Hello. Can I see build options for u-boot on running image? Do I understand correctly that the answer is point to /usr/lib/u-boot/$BOARD_defconfig ?

I have just discovered the u-boot help file. On console during power-up, when it says Hit any key to stop autoboot: I hit a key, got a prompt and typed help. Are all the capabilities listed real? pxe, tftpboot, nfs, usbboot, dhcp, bootefi Are many implemented? I did just discover the nfs how-to. -- Larry

I'm bringing up a custom Allwinner H3 board with Armbian. I created the required conf, u-boot and kernel patches and built the image.

Hi, there is almost 0 documentation how to update u-boot; where to flash (dd) it, if it does support boot from rootfs on ZFS etc. Regarding the ZFS; here I assume /boot has to be on ext4/vfat and rest of the rootfs (/) as ZFS to make it works? Is there any way to flash more details on this part?

I'm trying to create a microSD card to boot Armbian, but first would be inserted into a Windows laptop to edit some configuration. To make the microSD show up in Windows, the first partition must be a FAT partition, and so Linux would be ext4 partion 2. I suspect I'll need to put the /boot partition on the FAT volume, with directions to load from mmcblk1p2. In case it matters, this is a Rock64 without emmc. I've just started this research, but I'd be grateful for any u-boot-savvy person's help here. Thanks.

Hi, Recently I generated a U-boot with SPL for an A20 OrangePi board but couldn't get it to boot. I've tried to debug this and the best I could do is find the SPL hangs/waits in a function called dread. The last display is "Trying to boot from MMC1". The U-boot version is 2021.10-rc3 from the denx.de site. After I overwrote the SPL on the SD-card with an older SPL everything is fine. I've tried changing various config options but just can't get the new SPL to work. Has anybody made a U-boot from this latest release and got the SPL to work ? Or can anybody tell me the .config settings used when building the Armbian version so I can compare them to mine …

Hi everyone, I'm just a beginner with Armbian and OrangePi. I have some questions, please help me if you have time: Orange Pi PC Plus has serial PIN J3 and GPIO Serial PIN -> What is the difference between them? J3 is maybe debug serial ? I'm trying to write a python example to communicate between PC and board. I have also DB9 module and USB TTL but the problem is that I don't know from where should i start. thank you everyone , I'm waiting for your answer. have a good day

I am using a Banana Pi M2 Zero to control my 3D printer controller. It works perfectly running Armbian through the USB port but I need to switch to UART for 2 reasons. First I could not disable USB Otg so it's pumping voltage into the board and the display is washed out form the additional power. Second, it is impossible to use a USB cable because the USB port is only accessible from the outside in the steel enclosure. I used armbian config to disable USB and then select UART 3 to use GPIO pins 8 and 10 but can't get it to work. I keep getting a Failed to init error Is that all the config I need to do? If not what else? The overlay in my c…

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.

Is it possible to use uart rts gpio on mainline? May be like discribed here https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next/+/refs/heads/akpm-base/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/serial/serial.txt

Hello. I am using the NanoPi NEO Core board to communicate via UART1 and UART2 ports. I configure the ports using Python - pyserial. This is my configuration code: import serial com = serial.Serial( port = '/dev/ttyS' + str(port), baudrate = 115200, parity = serial.PARITY_NONE, stopbits = serial.STOPBITS_ONE, bytesize = serial.EIGHTBITS, timeout = 0.02 ) The problem is that the UART TX signal is not clean, as you can see from the following pictures: https://ibb.co/5sdvGVf https://ibb.co/zfgZrGT I get the same signal on both UART ports.…

So I'm trying to connect with a UART cable from my PC to the board (OPI3LTS). Here's what I did so far: In desperation, I double checked every connection, to no avail. My devices are powered separately, so only the RX and TX cable are connected, and they are crossed as they should. Set up permissions: sudo chmod 666 /dev/ttyUSB0 Add user to dialout: sudo adduser <user> dialout Install minicom: Set up minicom with the correct address: /dev/ttyUSB0 Set up the correct baud rate (115200 in this case) Turn off flow control Tried connecting via "screen", minicom and putty, all of them just show me…

HI, I am hoing someone can help. I cannot seem to get UART1 working on Orange Pi1. Uart2 and Uart3 are working just fine.

alright thanks @edupv Oh, and one another problem that bugs me once every one or two week in armbian 5.27, but in 5.40 it's almost everyday, The UASP stopped responding requests, it freeze entire system for several minutes, and every I/O to my hard drive makes the OS unresponsive. I was using ASMedia ASM1153E a years ago, and it show much problem. So I switch to JMicron JMS578, which doesn't error as often like ASMedia 1153E.

Looks like at present Armbian is based on LTS only. I am in particular annoyed by the outdated Samba release 4.3.11 in Ubuntu 16.04 and thus Armbian. Any chance that there might be a variant of Armbian adopting intermediate (yet stable) releases in the future? Or is there a way to upgrade Armbian or Samba without compiling myself? Thanks Joachim

Ubuntu changed the location of the mini.iso file for the minimal Ubuntu (Server?) installer in their file servers (since the 20.04 release), it's now located here: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/focal/main/installer-amd64/current/legacy-images/netboot/mini.iso The docs should be changed since it could be confusing for new users/developers.

After installing Ubuntu Focal 20.08.17 (on Pine A64), I have noticed the following. Uninstalling unneeded packages with apt-get autoremove shows that the package python3-distro-info will be uninstalled. Can other users confirm this issue and can it be fixed when building the image?

After installing Ubuntu Focal 20.08.17 (on Pine A64), I have noticed the following. Searching for packages which are not fully installed with dpkg -l|grep -v ^ii returns systemd-timesyncd. This can be fixed by purging the package with dpkg -P systemd-timesyncd but it is better if the image is shipped with this already fixed. Can other users confirm this issue and can it be fixed when building the image?

Hi all, I got my hotspot working via armbian-config but I can't seem to edit the rules using ufw. Trying to block port xyz, any ideas how?

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

In Chromium this works (since I'm commenting with Chromium now) Also have an issue with Facebook not always loading fully in Firefox, don't know if it's related. Just saying so it's known. Cheers.

for the past few days i have been trying to set up a samba server but without any luck. my main problem is that after installing and setting up everything i try to connect to the ip of the server (just by typing \\server-ip\ in the explorer path) using a win 10 machine and it doesnt even prompt me to log in using credentials, it just says that is impossible to connect to the server, even tough im connecting trough ssh. I just wiped the machine and installed everything new again but still no luck, im not prompted to log in. (i assume that even without editing the smb.conf file i should be getting a prompt to log in right?) what should i do? i dont thi…

The Wi-Fi network was working fine, I saw all the wireless connections. But I did something in the upper right corner of the system (in my opinion, I unchecked the Wi-Fi network) and as a result I can't restore the WiFi network. I only have wired internet now., and in the upper right corner, please help me solve the problem.

Hi, I can't update from armbian. I tried to switch to a new repository as write on this page: https://www.armbian.com/kernel/ When I proceed to apt-get update, I've got: my sources.list.d/armbian.list: Any idea ?

Hi, I've been trying to compile a c program with GCC and have been unable to move past various errors related to file functions that should be declared in fs.h I have installed (several times!) linux-headers-5.7.15-sunxi, made scripts, pointed the make file to ARCH=arm (not really necessary I know) and KSRC=/usr/src/linux-headers-5.7.15-sunxi/. In the fs header in /usr/src/linux-headers-5.7.15-sunxi/linux/ looks correct and includes references to the functions I require (filp_open(), filp_close(), kernel_write()) but the compiler simply refuses to accept that these functions are declared. It appears to still be using the original headers in /usr/incl…

Hi all, this is somewhat odd. I am using the nextcloudpi image NextCloudPi_Rock64_03-28-20.img. I believe it uses armbian (I am really not an expert sorry) and my problem is really not nextcloud related i believe. I had to cut the power to the rock64. Then i rebooted. The system clock is set to some early date (2016-xx-yy). Therefore the unmount is in the future causing an fsck. It fails miserably and drops to initramfs (where i really am lost). I don't think this should happen. I dont have a rtc battery - maybe this wouldnt be an issue if there was one attached? I hope someone can tell me how to progress or how to provide better insight …

Hi all, I have a few orange pi zero's and recently on 2 I had an issue with wifi AP that I am trying to properly understand. I have read some of the discussion regarding the wifi chip on the opi0 and that's not a great chip. I thoroughly agree with people that say that if you pay bottom dollar for a board, don't expect top dollar performance. And especially don't come complaining on a public FOSS forum. The only thing I am trying to do is understand the error and see if there is anything I can do to improve it. I use my orange pi zero's with a basic (custom) armbian image that starts up with a wifi AP briefly, so I can ssh in and do some config. Afterward…

Hello, I’m running nanopi r4s with armbian 22.02.1 bullseye. After finishing edit /etc/network/interfaces via armbian-config, there was an error while restarting services. Fail to stop network-manager.service: Unit network-manager.service not loaded. However, for bullseye, network-manager.service might be no longer available.

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.

I was trying to install armbian on an ssd on my orange pi5, and when I ran the armbian-config program I saw that the firmware was frozen. I chose to unfreeze it, but I think should not have done that. Can I reinstall the frozen firmware packages and then hold those packages again? If so, how? Thanks.

Hi all, I played around with home assistant on my Odroid HC1 (running NCP as main task) and now wanted to remove home assistant completely because I don't need it anymore. I tried to uncheck the software in Softy but that doesn't have any impact. How can I completely remove home assistant? Thanks!

Hi, my base problem is syncthing not starting on boot. But in trying to solve that it would be useful to uninstall and reinstall syncthing via armbian-config and hence softy. But armbian-config/softy does not let me uninstall syncthing (or for that matter samba, which I also don't want or need on that machine). Nor does apt: sudo apt-get remove --purge samba reports "Package 'samba' is not installed, so not removed", though armbian-config/softy shows it as installed. Is there a way to uninstall packages installed via armbian-config/softy? Thanks Graham

...as title. I've installed ispConfig using Armbian-Config, but now I want to remove it. How to do it? Googling I've see that there is a unistall.php or /root/ispconfig/uninstall script that do that, but there is no trace in armbian.

Hi all, yesterday I updated my system (Banana Pi) to the latest version (5.15, legacy-kernel) with apt-get update && apt-get upgradeAfter the upgrade the fixed-IP for the device was gone. It looks like the link /etc/network/interfaces has been overwritten with a new file during the upgrade - so I had to set up fixed IP again in /etc/network/interfaces like described here: http://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Getting-Started/#how-to-set-fixed-ip For the future I suggest changing the the upgrade-script so that the fixed IP is not overwritten. Additionally I think it would be good to write a short note in the changelog that the setting might be gone after the up…

I have been running the 5.03 image provided, and it works amazingly, many thanks to igorpec and tkaiser. Now that the 5.04 image is ready, is there an easy way (via ssh?) to update my system? Obviously I could copy the image to an sd card and run it that way, but the system is running so well (on external hard drive and running plex server) that I'm reluctant to upset it all. Many thanks

A few weeks ago I installed the minimal Armbian Bookworm image on a Odroid M1. The installed kernel was 6.6.31 The current minimal version for this board is 24.5.3 with kernel 6.6.36 After running apt update and apt dist-upgrade the kernel updated to version 6.6.32 which was build more then one month ago. I also used armbian-config to update the firmware in hopes that this covers the kernel as well but I am still stuck with the old kernel. What am I doing wrong? And how can I actually update the entire software, including the kernel to the most recent release without manually reinstallig the entire system?

Few years ago I setup armbian with 5.4.85 kernel. now try to update from instructions: sudo apt update sudo apt upgrade sudo armbian-config System->Other and got "No other kernels available!" Googling this error didn't help, and worst that I can't now install kernel headers Is there some update to current kernel (5.15) from bash? or linux build in common

Hi all, I use a cubieboard3 as a web server. For several months, joomla tells me that I am PHP 7.0.33-0 + deb9u7et that I need to update my version of php to 7.3 or later.

Hey there, we are using the Olimex Lime (A20) and the Debian Wheezy image of Igor. Great work. We were wondering what you strategies are concerning updating all relevant system parts (bootloader/kernel/application). Is there any reference implementation that anyone could recommend? We are following the trend of building "Murphy-compatible" (https://www.kernel.org/doc/ols/2005/ols2005v1-pages-21-36.pdf) update mechanisms, but are looking how it is best done. Application wise this can be fairly easy be done via docker - which we are using - but what mechanisms are used for the bootloader itself and the kernel. The should be an atomic update procedure an…

Hi! I would like to know if there is a way at the startup to load new uboot / system to sdcard or spi flash. The fact is for DIY waterproof system, it's hard to remove sdcard, sometimes OPi isn't close of my computer. Idealy i would like TFTP / serial upgrade like openwrt router. Maybe it's impossible since TFTP upgrade need to download before image to ram, check it and burn it. With OP PC we have 1G ram to store image before write it on sdcard... Any idea? thanks

I just (several days ago) installed Armbian 22.05 OdroidN2 Jammy XFCE. It uses kernel 5.10. Then I noticed there is an alternative version 22.05 jammy XFCE with kernel 5.17.
