Hi,

 

I would like to know if it is possible to limit USB speed to 1.1 standard on orangepipc and how to do it? I know it is doable on raspbian but I couldn't find info about doing this on armbian 

Just a question, why should someone want this 'feature'? 

The only good reason in my opinion is for usb protocol reverse engineering with a low cost usb packet analyser (usb 12mbit).

@chwe to increase reliability of certain usb adapters.

 

On raspbian this is accomplished fairly easy just by adding parameter  "dwc_otg.speed=1" to file /boot/cmdline.txt

 

Is there really no such option in armbian?

No, since

• the main reason is that this isn't related to Armbian but to the kernel you use. With mainline kernel and H3 boards most probably disabling the respective ehci1 node while leaving ohci1 as "okay" might work. With legacy kernel... no idea and will never check
• Providing this as configurable option (eg. an overlay) would be weird, just throw away broken USB peripherals

Wrong. It's doable this way on Raspberry Pis regardless of the distribution used with RPi standard kernel. It's not related to Raspbian at all (and therefore also won't work on Chinese boards that are advertised being capable to 'run Raspberry Pi image' -- I have not checked whether Xunlong provides a Raspbian image for OPi PC but even if they do it won't work there as with RPi kernel)

They do...  They also have an Armbian (in fact it's a link to our download page  )
