@emor acid could be your gpio settings for mmc0. Try the x98h image. If that doesn’t work you need to extract your dts or use the one from the working Ubuntu.

Just wonder if there is a good guide how to make dri work and allt the supported code´s work in wayland / xorg or other / Thanks

Hi Keith, I'm not too familiar with the in and outs of armbian-config. Just navigate around and see what's available. The kernel being Edge makes it easiest to install to a different device (i.e. if that's eMMC), so you're goo there. And remember, if you break the operating system, you can always start again with a clean install. So don't be afraid to experiment. It's how we learn. But I am very careful with the 16 MB SPI-NOR, and not to mess with that. I'm not sure if overwriting that with junk would brick the machine or not. Perhaps someone else who knows more about that can comment. But otherwise just follow your instincts as best you can and do what makes sense to you. Armbian-config is meant to be pretty straight-forward.

The kernel 6.17 release benefits from improvements in the graphics subsystem, hardware enablement, and more! See where Collabora's kernel team contributed to this release. View the full article

I know an expert in rk3528, his name is @fensoft we are depending on him finding a weekend to dedicate to the community https://github.com/ilyakurdyukov/rk3528-tvbox he will help us by taking this repository and including it in armbian with a wonderful pull request I would like to buy this board and join the fun that you have, but my country has literally started an embargo on all TV boxes

Hi, I tested with the version 25.11.0-trunk.129 and the second network port worked with this. https://paste.armbian.com/hasewoloti

Don't know what to tell you, it is running fine on my boxes and dmesg is clean. Also I cannot see what is your build version since the screenshot is missing the top line of the screen. 🤷‍♂️

This is internal development for our boards, unfortunately, there is no public repository for our kernel.

Btw, about things turning orange... I had that experience some time ago before I got into Armbian. I did a clean install of Debian Bookworm. Then I tried installing the vendor GPU drivers and packages from the Orange PI company. Their drivers and packages were so horribly hacked / designed that various programs that needed certain SoC features needed to be custom modified to work with those specific vendor drivers. So all versions of those programs needed be held and were non-upgradable if I wanted continued GPU and video acceleration support. Anyway the main GPU driver package, when I installed it myself (instead of whatever secret sorcery their installation did), it turned things orange. Fortunately now, pure Trixie works out of the box on my board (from the Debian installer .iso), except that the kernel needs to be upgraded from their 6.12 to 6.16.3 from trixie-backports. Armbian's edge kernel on an otherwise pure Trixie is even better than Debian's, because it's customized for Rockchip. If you've been doing things like I was trying to before, things have much improved and now simple is better and it works. Also things tend to get really mangled up when upgrading over time - especially major LTS upgrades. Why not try a fresh install of a 25.8.1 Armbian image?

Fix: run armbian-install, then selected “Install/Update the bootloader on SD card (/dev/mmcblk0)”

Describe what you did before to make it work. Show the DTS, the wiring you connected and the linux version that worked. If you used spidev before, I don't have experience in that. I only have experience with these drivers: panel-mipi-dbi-spi, ili9431 and adafrui-xy... The threads I showed you require you to stop using spidev, since the Linux kernel will communicate directly to the LCD, without a user program. Using both will just make them interfere with each other. If the LCD remains white and doesn't even flicker, and you made it work in an older kernel, then keep that wiring. If the /dev/fb0 exists, it means that linux has taken one SPI output port for display, but you need to make sure that: * and SPI parameters in the DTS are correct, * the gpio to handle the command/data, reset parameters are pointing to valid orange pi pins which are not used by anything else * the high/low polarity of those gpio * the wiring is correct, * the initialization bytes are correct

Ok, I foud some time to make additional tests. Here is what I found. It fully boots with 'x96q-lpddr3' SD card image if you swap dtb to one of the two: h618-linganpi-3h h618-orngepi2w However in both cases internal Ethernet does not work. I can use USB to ETH converter. Do you see any way to make internal ETH working in this board? In original Android dmesg there is a message about gmac: [ 28.389711] sunxi-gmac gmac1 eth0: eth0: Type(6) PHY ID 00441400 at 0 IRQ poll (gmac1-0:00) Does it sound like a solution?

quoting JPL: Did you see any announcement by the github's owner, about what we can expect from her/his source code? Looking at the content of the file, it seems like we need to download the code from: https://github.com/philipl/mpv#branch=v4l2request or https://github.com/philipl/mpv/tree/v4l2request And include this build-time configuration -Dv4l2request='enabled' I have posted instructions to build MPV on Sept 26 in this thread

Thanks for your comments. I did not touch the regulator@40 values at all - only the opp frequencies in line with suggestions from @prahal and some cache settings. cpufreq sampling_rates were changed to about 40000 (depending on the cluster) for kernels 6.6 by a script in /etc/rc.local. The script does not apply anymore in linux 6.12. Instead of disabling the A72 cluster altogether, reducing the burden on the CPUs during data transfers helps to substantially reduce crashes and avoids triggering the watchdog timer. P.S.: I bought a Rock-5B in October 2022 and I finally migrated everything to it.

The easiest way to do this is through a chroot (or perhaps systemd-nspawn) but how practical this is will be dependent on your end goals. I do this all the time.

At the risk of speaking too soon, I think I have found the issue. I need to revert some changes, and do some final testing, but hopefully a PR will be inbound to fix this in the next couple of days.

I found the error, please don't do it again. Just Search for Supported boards before buying Partners boards that will work in this case: https://www.armbian.com/partners/

"if you have ever booted a different distribution then your box will be incompatible with the Armbian build" are you serious? No matter after all this linux on arm shit problems i had last week, i really must say that a windows 10 + kodi.exe on a thin client is really the best in quality (dxva) and stability. And it only eats 1-2w more power than this u1 thingie. So, i just keep my moonlight on windows and put tvheadend together with the wintv solohd into a vmware player. bye bye.

You should also be updating your /etc/apt/sources.list.d/armbian.list as well (otherwise you will be mixing bookworm armbian packages with trixie debian packages)

How do install armbian in my TX98 TV BOX Processor:Allwinner H313 I bought it on tiktok shop

@FucusMeDeep don't throw yourself into this, I'm not the best example to be messing with junk, but times have changed, if it were really interesting I would recommend it. with that time and money I buy a board https://www.banana-pi.org/ anything that involves reinventing the wheel there is already ready, don't use material discarded by someone else. develop something on top of these boards, go further create something at a higher level than what you want to create. do this project with a more documented and healthy board: CH573F from Nanjing Qinheng Microelectronics Part of the document's included below: WCH 官方网站 www.wch.cn(zh-CN) / www.wch-ic.com(en) 时钟和电源 时钟： 32Mhz HSE 高速无源晶体输入 32.768k LSE 低速无源晶体输入 电源： 3.3V-5.5V电源输入，3.3V LDO最大100mA额外输出 USB电源串有二极管，防止电流倒灌 同时二极管可以通过短路焊盘旁路 5V带有TVS二极管 接口和按键 接口： 12Pin 2.54mm间距 I/O接口 * 2 按键： 复位/B23按键 * 1 Boot/B22按键 * 1

@RealAn DTS for Kernel 6.1: Unfortunately, all boards for TV Box device are embargoed upon landing in my country's territory. If any Golden Knight wants to do the development, I believe this is a good time.
