Dec 25th image for Cubie a5e is not a bootable image
Werner replied to Meestor_X's topic in Allwinner sunxi
I guess the image was built from a pending pull request for testing before merge. Since it has been merged now it should work. Make sure your framework clone is up to date (git pull). - Today

Oh, I understand. Camera, hardware video decoder and hardware video encoder - they all appear now as /dev/videoX devices, because new hardware videocodec accelerator driver (or standalone video decoder and video encoder drivers) became V4L2 kind of driver. Also thanks for the reference link.

How did you apply dgVoodoo2 ? I download the archieve file it is a bunch of dll. -
Critique or improve my method to get a lightweight LabWC desktop
robertoj replied to robertoj's topic in Allwinner sunxi
Thank you for testing my instructions I was on vacation, and I didn't remember to check this until now Which LCD are you using? Which kernel driver are you using for it? All the questions in your post depend on the LCD model and the driver you used. (I am using panel-mipi-dbi, which I know that it has lost its ability to display X11 graphics since a few months ago) Can you 100% say that you don't have X11? You don't need to use the same kernel version I use. The newer version you have is preferable 🆗 I am glad you can use the Trixie labwc. Personally, I am using Bookworm in the meantime, since its the only way I know to get H264 hardware acceleration. With Trixie's labwc, do you ever get desktop crashes when you log out? -
I updated my patches to the new style (using series.conf) and that took some time. They are back online, as are some new images. I post more updates at the opi discord btw. As far as I know, neither network, spi flash or pcie are working currently.

Current way of installing is as written on the download pages. It was verified with latest v24.11.2 image.

@Ducdanh Nguyen, virtually every adapter will work. I'm using DFRobot multiplexer v.1.0 (FT232R-based): https://wiki.dfrobot.com/Multi_USB_RS232_RS485_TTL_Converter__SKU_TEL0070_ -

Thank you Nick, great work - best overall image so far for the A7Z a733 board. I'm experimenting with 13M imx214 radxa camera - how to get correct device tree for your image? I see that imx214 module is compiled, but CSI interface configuration seems to be missing.

Orange Pi Zero 2W repeatedly asks for Wi-Fi password

How to install desktop
Michael Robinson replied to silencer's topic in Software, Applications, Userspace
if you are not seeing option to enable in armbian-config you can try: sudo apt install xfce4 xfce4-terminal lightdm -y or sudo apt install xfce4-goodies -y -
Thank you. I'm gonna try that.

Missing keys when running apt-update
Luna the Deer replied to Luna the Deer's topic in Libre Renegade
I found a post on this forum and tried it, but it didn't appear to have any effect. I might have just run it wrong. I believe they were also dealing with a different source having this problem. -
Hello everyone, I am using an Orange Pi Zero 2W with a graphical user interface (GUI). I downloaded and installed the official Orange Pi Zero 2W image. Unfortunately, I keep running into a Wi-Fi connection issue. After booting, the system repeatedly asks me to enter my Wi-Fi password. If I don’t enter it, I have no internet connection. What’s interesting is: If I disable and re-enable Wi-Fi in the network manager, it automatically reconnects to the known network without asking for the password again. Alternatively, a system reboot also restores the Wi-Fi connection automatically. I have already seen online that this seems to be a known issue, but I haven’t found a proper or permanent solution so far. Has anyone experienced similar behavior or knows how to configure Wi-Fi so that it connects reliably and permanently without repeatedly asking for the password? Thanks in advance!

Thank you to everyone who spent time reading my post, and contributing to it. Having had some free days I decided to give it another try and experimented my helios64 with some of the newer images, none of which worked perfectly (my main requirement is OMV plus its miniDLNA, and couldn't get this installed on noble or trixie, although they were booting and working just fine), eventually running now some bookworm from eMMC and while it seems stable there are some performance issues* (need to re-read that bookworm issues thread again as I did not try all the fixes yet, including the dtb one). *By performance issues I mean some apparently slow reading/writing to eMMC, and network performance on 2.5gb, which I know were thoroughly discusses on that thread, just need to spend more time on trying them out I guess. I'm still a newbie into all this stuff and I was reading a lot again before the new tests. Would anyone be able to recommend some version of an archived bookworm image that I should start from? My device is connected to the router via the 1gb interface, and I have a second cable going directly to my desktop via the 2.5gb interface that lands into a 2.5gb USB-c network card. I don’t have the 2.5gb hardware fix done as when I installed it years ago it was working fine on buster with this layout and my router is 1gb only anyway. In any case, I still have the SD card with the prior setup untouched, so can revert back to it, was just thinking it makes more sense to try something new. Happy new year all of you!

Efforts to develop firmware for H96 MAX M9 RK3576 TV Box 8G/128G
Werner replied to Hqnicolas's topic in Rockchip CPU Boxes
standard baud rate for rockchip socs is 1500000. And for the other your cp2102 is no good for this high speed since it cannot handle it. And instead of failing it will output garbage. get ft232r, cp2104 or pl2303 based adapter. -
Open hardware is growing faster than ever and breaking in new ways.http://blog.armbian.com/content/images/2025/12/New_review1.png2025 has been a productive year for the Armbian project. As the Single Board Computer ecosystem continues to fragment and expand, Armbian has consolidated its position as the universal glue holding the open-source hardware world together. Our mission remains clear: providing a consistent, reliable build framework that generates operating system for an increasingly diverse hardware landscape. Hardware diversity and development velocityThe most visible metric of our growth is hardware support. This year, the team successfully integrated 61 new boards into the ecosystem. This represents thausands of engineering hours dedicated to debugging, kernel patching, and testing to ensure a stable experience for the end user, regardless of the underlying silicon. The heartbeat of this activity remains our build Framework, which saw 1,946 commits this year. This framework is the engine that allows Armbian to scale across architectures. Our specialized repositories also saw significant contributions: 795 commits to Rockchip Linux, 304 commits to Armbian Config, and 88 commits to the Armbian Imager.

In 2025, Armbian’s infrastructure ran for a total of 4,885,668 minutes. To put that in perspective, our servers performed the equivalent of 9.2 years of continuous compute time in a single calendar year.

Good afternoon. Sorry for my English. Happy New Year!!!! Can you change the current theme to MYD-lt527m-16e2d-180-e-sx? I think that's clear now. Thank you. By the way, I've made some progress. Using Android logs, I finally configured, launched, and tested two network interfaces. The iperf3 program showed an average throughput of 90 megabytes per second. Unfortunately, I can't yet extract the device tree using standard tools.

Edit ArmbianEnv.txt when machine is unable to boot?
CryBaby replied to Myriade's topic in Rockchip CPU Boxes
If there is nothing in /boot at all then its content is probably in another partition which gets mounted while booting. You will need to find that partition and mount it in your PC to modify it.
