Hi everybody! 

 

I'm new on Linux and I have a problem. I burned the Armbian OS on an SD card for a OrangePi PC and I created an User name [dp] and a Password. When I login, instead to see the Desktop image, Armbian seems to wait for a command or something.  The OS displays the following text:

 

dp@orangepipc: ~$_ 

 

What should I type now to see the Desktop? Anyone want to help me?

 

~$ is effectively a command prompt shel, where the ~ means home directory.

For Desktop, did you use a Desktop image for your SDCard ?

Because Server image are headless by default, no Desktop installed ...

 

For my SD card I used a Desktop image (Legacy 3.4.113 Ubuntu Xenial).

Ubuntu Xenial

Thanks for your kind help.

Desktop should start automatically after you create an username - in first root login and if you used desktop image. In some cases it's possible that your monitor is not properly detected at first boot - when using some HDMI2VGA converters ... and one reboot is needed to get a picture on the screen.

In case of some SD card detects or if you press "CTRL-C" to break user creation, desktop boot won't be enabled ...

Thanks for your answer, Igor. 

 

I changed the SD card and now it's working! But now I have another problem: how to install the driver for the WiFi connexion?

 

 

Please provide output of

dpkg -l nodm

 

Thank you, zador.blood.stained.
