Now this issue has been fixed on Odin2 edge 7.2 kernel branch

@KhanhDTP, I used Mangohud and it showed the GPU did go up to 1GHz in most of the time (though not all the time) and the GPU usage is ~100%. Maybe I need to test more games I did see a ~7% boost for vkmark score to ~4400

@KhanhDTP, I've tried the 1GHz GPU patch but so far I do not see much performance boost with it. I tested Silk Song, Hitman: Absolution, Mario Kart 8

@KhanhDTP, thanks for the info. Great news! I'll try it. Have you tried the new dxvk 3.0 release?

In addition, there's a develop branch for the VK_EXT_transform_feedback extension. It is another important requirement for DXVK.

@KhanhDTP There's no pull request yet but they do have a preparation PR https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/41654 For DQ 11S, it's about 15 fps@1080p. The FPS varies depending on the gaming scenes. You can check out my video https://b23.tv/xvsMPqD

@KhanhDTP now panvk has a in-develop geometry shader feature branch. I've tried it and some dx11 games like Dragon Quest 11S and Octopath Traveler can run.

Please note that it is a known issue that Turnip / Vulkan broken on Snapdragon SM8550 / Adreno 740 on Mesa 25.3.x. See https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/work_items/14656 The workaround is to apply patch from https://github.com/batocera-linux/batocera.linux/blob/master/board/batocera/patches/mesa3d/001-fix-freedreno-vulkan.patch and rebuild 001-fix-freedreno-vulkan.patch

Now this issue seems to be fixed. I tried to build 6.18.25 kernel and it can complete boot wizard as expected.

@KhanhDTP are you using esync of wine? NTsync is available on 6.18+ rk3588 kernels. I think that may give a performance improvement.

@KhanhDTP, that's great news! Thank you very much for the testing!

@KhanhDTP gpu clock is still limited to 850mhz with 7.0. I tried to port rockchip vendor kernel clock settings but no success yet. @chaitan3 The gpu can clock up to 1Ghz by hardware design but it is limited to 850mhz with mainline kernel.

@KhanhDTP BTW, I'm using the edge 7.0-rc3 kernel. Did you find the vendor 6.1 kernel is more stable?

@KhanhDTP Now Call of Duty 2 can be launched with dxvk 2.7.1 + mesaaco ppa.

After I added "snd-soc-wcd938x" to /etc/modules-load.d/modules.conf, the sound card can be detected as expected.

Hi, Werner, thanks for replying. The problem is, when this happened, I cannot get wire or wireless connection. Neither can I login to the system using another pty. Odin2 is a gaming device thus there's no UART available. I tried to pass "console=tty0" to the kernel but I don't see any output on screen when it happened. Any suggestion to get more information? Thanks!

I built a local armbian image from current main branch (26.05.0-trunk) and I found there's no sound card detected after boot. It shows "timer" only under /sys/class/sound/. I got following error in kernel log: [ 17.382126] platform sound: deferred probe pending: snd-sc8280xp: DP0 Playback: error getting cpu dai name [ 17.382140] platform 33c0000.pinctrl: deferred probe pending: qcom-sc7280-lpass-lpi-pinctrl: Failed to get clk 'core' It is using Linux 6.18.2-current-qcs6490. When I switched to the Radxa OS image, the audio output is OK. I attached kernel log, lsmod output and dump of the dtb. armbian_no_sound.log armbian_lsmod.txt dump.dts

I tried to build a image from the current main branch (kernel: 6.18.20) and I found the problem is the same. I changed KERNELBRANCH to "tag:v6.18.18" from "branch:linux-6.18.y" and rebuild. It can boot to desktop as expected. It seems some change in the 6.18.19 kernel causes the problem

What happened? I used image https://github.com/armbian/community/releases/download/26.2.0-trunk.606/Armbian_community_26.2.0-trunk.606_Ayn-odin2_noble_current_6.18.19_gnome_desktop.img.xz and I found the device cannot boot into desktop. It stuck in the first boot wizard after message "Please use this account for your daily work from now on." How to reproduce? Download image from https://github.com/armbian/community/releases/download/26.2.0-trunk.606/Armbian_community_26.2.0-trunk.606_Ayn-odin2_noble_current_6.18.19_gnome_desktop.img.xz Flash it to TF card using Armbian Imager Insert the TF card to Odin2 device and power on Wait for it to boot to desktop Observation: It stuck in the first boot wizard after message "Please use this account for your daily work from now on."

I tried Dragon Quest 11S with stripped dxvk 1.11. It failed because the panvk driver does not support Geometry Shader. There's an on-going MR https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/38401 to support it.

Thank you very much! Very useful information.
