Actually its the opposite so it must have been something else. Etcher is known to be broken for bigger images (desktops). There is some bug in the .xz decompression method used by Etcher. I am using only USB imager for at least a year and haven't run into any problems. At least not on this level.

yes I can confirm

Thanks - I'm worried my main issue was with the overlay loading issue I mentioned. I did try 6.15 but prob need to retry with the hack with overlay-user. But man... it is SO incredibly simple to switch the kernels.

@KrzyPac I suspect you just need the DTB correct? Git clone the armbian/build, place the patch in patch/kernel/archive/meson64-6.12/ and build any meson64 board. ./compile.sh KERNEL_GIT=shallow BRANCH=current EXPERT=yes KERNEL_BTF=no kernel BOARD=bananapicm4io The DTS files are one of the first things to be compiled, so once you see them finish, hit CTRL+C to cancel the build and then grab the DTB file from the source dir: cache/sources/linux-kernel-worktree/6.12__meson64__arm64/arch/arm64/boot/dts/amlogic/ That is the easiest way I can think of doing what you want to achieve. Here is an updated PATCH and pr-ecompiled DTB. NOTE: There are different variants of the X96-AIR. I have two. One that uses Qualcomm for wireless and another that is Realtek. Each variant requires a different DTS for it to function properly. This patch is for the Realtek variant. x96-air-gbit-spdif-jack-i2c1-openvfd-jl2xx1-bt-support.patch meson-sm1-x96-air-gbit.dtb

See for more details but without using the overlay-user folder - I was not able to get the pwm to work on a fresh download.

I just did some new experiments, trying to get touch working in ili9488 LCD v2.1 Increasing or decreasing the SPI MHz in both the LCD and touch section of the DTS DONT WORK... I couldn't get touch working Next is to use a software defined SPI with spi-gpio (based on my experience in my ili9341 thread) does anybody know a Python soft spi program which can talk to ads7846/xpt2046?

And could you tell me how to add a patch to my .dtb or .dts file. I installed linux-headers but I don't know what to do next with the patch posted above by c0rnelius.

I was having some trouble with newer ili9488 LCD v2.1, and I didn't have ili9488 LCD v1.1, so I decided to experiment again with ili9341 LCD v1.2. I found that this DTS https://forum.armbian.com/topic/44191-orangepi-zero-lts-ili9341-tft-lcd-and-later-orangepi-zero-3/#findComment-204672 Doesn't work with the touch chip. By accident, I ran the ili9488 driver on this ili9341, and I saw garbled graphics... but the good news: touch was working. Something in the ili9488 DTS which doesn't work for the ili9488 LCD, works for ili9341. I found the difference was not in the ads7846 section, but in the spi speed for the ili9xxx part. I switched back to the ili9341 DTS (with adafruit driver), but changed the SPI speed from 24MHZ to 40MHz.... then the ili9341 DTS was working with graphics and touch again ALTHOUGH the graphics have some flashing pseudo-colors in some places. Maybe the 40MHZ is too much, but I re-gained touch in ili9341 LCD v1.1. I will keep doing experiments. Playing with the SPI Mhz didn't help with the ili9488

So I was able to reproduce the issue when trying to boot via NVMe after using armbian-config to switch from emmc. Using rkdeveloptool to flash the SPI with https://dl.radxa.com/rock5/sw/images/loader/rock-5b+/release/rock-5b+-spi-image-8ea7ee4-20240730.img (short guide in the spoiler) I was able to boot into the NVMe. Looking into fixing the broken SPI installation

Check here https://github.com/armbian/community/releases/tag/25.5.0-trunk.256 or on a mirror with archive https://docs.armbian.com/Mirrors/#current-mirrors for what you are looking for. We're aware that some links are broken for yet to be determined reason.

I think using the ubuntu keyserver is good as well but that this is a 'small' issue, it is easy to miss a small thing in a project this huge consider the number of boards, kernels, and distributions (including the different releases). if this little thing breaks, we can fix in our installed os using these methods.

this soldering is visionally not very attractive 😛 , but at lest the result is what counts 👍

We don't deal with Android. Better check xda developers forums.

Description This is a draft/wip for adding https proxy caching. This is especially designed for machines hosting lots of github runners to reduce their bandwidth usage by sacrificing disk space. http caching has been merged already and only needed minor changes. Caching https however is way more complicated. Encryption needs to be broken and rewrapped and then obviously downloads will fail due to cert issues. Classic MITM. So a new certificate authority (CA) needs to be put in place to allow these "fake" certs. Why is this even necessary? Well one major part is downloads from upstream apt repositories. The other major part is downloading 3rd party repositories and artifacts from OCI/ORAS/whatever the correct name for that system is. They do not allow plain http downloads but redirect to https. So in order to cache these encryption must be broken on the fly. On custom runs this works already with the mentioned extension. However when the build framework is used within a GH Actions Runner environment it would need to detect this and enable the extension automatically. No clue how to do that or overall if it is worth diving even deeper into this topic. Therefore this RFC to collect feedback. Also lots of fail-safe checks are missing. Sometimes I had to mix run_host_command_logged and chroot_sdcard since pipes don't work using latter. Documentation summary for feature / change Yes, this would need documentation.

Okay I will try that patch and the build switch that you mentioned. About the RAM: It is SKHynix 966.3MB(989480kB) https://linux-sunxi.org/File:A088_Board_Front_3.jpg I then tried an archived image for the cubieboard and so far no errors and runs quite stable: https://armbian.atomonetworks.com/archive/cubieboard/archive/ Is this a kernel issue then? Maybe I should compile with an older kernel. The stable one is 6.1.63 Thanks a lot for your continued support, Shivam

Hi, Tried this Opi5-Plus with kernel-6.15.2-edge-rockchip64 but mpv doesn't seems to have vpu hardware acceleration Does this repository works on RK3588 - Orange Pi 5 Plus Debian Trixie with mainline kernel 6.15.2-edge-rockchip64?

I think @amazingfate made a custom Chromium package at some point that included optimizations for rk35xx but no clue about its status. Might be even included in mesa-vpu extension? Firefox probably won't work since that would need adjustments as well and I think messing with browsers is a pita already. topics merged as duplicates.

I don't know. I don't have this board nor is the Armbian team aware of its state since it is community supported. This looks like some upstream (Debian to say) uboot package which certainly does not support this board. IIRC u-boot versions for rk3588, depending on family are something like 2017.09 or 2024.01 (both vendor cases) and 2025.01 or .04 for current/edge.

Same problem here, but enabling the audio codec on armbian-config was not sucessfull on this version: v25.5.1 for Orange Pi Zero running Armbian Linux 6.12.30-current-sunxi Any solution?
