Hello, I'm running Armbian Community 26.8.0 / kernel 6.18.35-current-rockchip64 CPU is quite hot, 56-60 C even when idling; it used to be around 43-45 C on the BSP image. I have a passive cooler mounted. So I added a fan and connected to the FAN header, but it does not spin. I seem to remember a "fan control" overlay within armbian-config for other boards, but it's not present here. Any suggestion? It's a nice board but it's too hot with Armbian 😕 Thanks!

@stary presporak your attached DTS is no longer available. Can I find it somewhere? Or is it merged within @alexc work already? Thanks!

I expect 2x the figure: dmesg | grep PCIe pci 0004:41:00.0: 4.000 Gb/s available PCIe bandwidth, limited by 5.0 GT/s PCIe x1 link at 0004:40:00.0 (capable of 15.752 Gb/s with 8.0 GT/s PCIe x2 link) lspci -vv | grep LnkSta LnkSta: Speed 5GT/s (downgraded), Width x1 (downgraded)

In case everyone else is interested: the easiest way I found to get a running system with the latest kernel is Start with an image based upon the vendor 6.1 kernel (I used "Armbian_25.8.2_Orangepi5_noble_vendor_6.1.115_minimal.img.xz") Once it's running, launch "armbian-config" Choose "System", then the entry to install a different kernel Now you can select the latest kernel, in my case "6.18-RC5" Just for the records, I was interested in trying the latest kernel because, with the vendor-provided 6.1 kernel, my NVMe drive was limited to 400 MB/s ("downgraded link speed"). Unfortunately, the same applies to the latest 6.18-RC5: probably a DTS issue, but I don't know how to fix it, so be it. Best, Fernando

I would try an "edge" image, but I cannot see any: https://www.armbian.com/orangepi-5/ Only "vendor" and "current" images are listed. Is there a specific page to look for edge-type images? Thanks Fernando

Hello, my Orange Pi 5 works well with the stock OS (1.22, Ubuntu Jammy, BSP kernel 6.1.99), using the SD as a boot device. It also works ok with Armbian Minimal-IoT / Debian 13 / 6.1: v25.8.2 for Orange Pi 5 running Armbian Linux 6.1.115-vendor-rk35xx But I prefer Ubuntu and wanted to try 6.12, so I downloaded 25.8.2 / Ubuntu Server / 6.12. Wrote to SD, hooked up the debug UART and powered on. The bootloader is fine, the kernel starts, but at a certain point it panics: [ OK ] Reached target sockets.target - Socket Units.
