I did so, but openvfd still doesn't work and can't compile.

I meant to say "armbian", my apologies

Dear all, How can i auto login h96max armbian without input user name&password. Every time i turn on the box, i have to enter the user name&password. I don't want to do that the same to windows OS Thank you,

The foreign added SPI-flash makes it custom in terms of Armbian bootloader. Look how to build U-Boot from Armbian build environment (development basically) or find howto on denx.de. It been a while since I last did that myself, so things might have changed a bit.

Sorry - this is probably an easy one for those that know. But I am trying hard to copy my work and progress and build another NAS out of another T95z Plus box for my brother. All is going well - but on the second box - months after building the first - I installed the latest download. So I have Old box = Armbian Linux 6.12.32-current-meson64 - v25.5.1 New box = Armbian Linux 6.12.34-current-meson64 - v25.8 rolling - Support:for advanced users (rolling release) Both show - Ubuntu stable (noble) - which I think I changed on first boot with Armbian-config. Okay - so I don't think I am an advanced user so that warning has got me worried. So is there another version I should be using? I can't find the old file I downloaded so they would be identical. I have disabled unattended upgrades and things like that. Or am I worrying about nothing. Anyway - thanks as always. I still can't believe I have these cheap things pulled from my dust bin doing a real job again.

TV Box Name: Sunvell T95Z plus Octagon shaped box (I wrote it before – but Beware – apparently a lot of variants) CPU Amlogics S912 Armbian build file name: Armbian_community_25.8.0-trunk.277_Aml-s9xx-box_noble_current_6.12.34 DTB file used: meson-gxm-t95z-plus.dtb – (my other T95z uses meson-gxm-vega-s96.dtb) Kernel Version: 6.12.34 Distribution Installed (focal, buster, etc): Noble Working Ethernet (Yes/No): Yes Max Ethernet Speed that works (100/1000): Not sure how to determine... Does wifi work (Yes/No): No Does bluetooth work (Yes/No): Not tested Does HDMI audio work (Yes/No): Yes Additional Comments (provide any additional information you feel is important): This is my second T95z plus box build. Using as headless server and both seem solid. Confirming what others have said – the build is different inside. This has a different wifi card and eemc. I have a 3rd T95z plus that has the dreaded NAND chip too. Having fun and learning. Using as a simple NAS now with a ZFS pool and works just fine.

My Radxa Rock 4SE does not boot since community-build 25.8.0-trunk.228. Current local builds based on the "main" branch are also affected. The bootloader log gives the following error: Checking hash(es) for config config-1 ... OK Checking hash(es) for Image atf-1 ... sha256+ OK Checking hash(es) for Image u-boot ... sha256+ OK Checking hash(es) for Image fdt-1 ... sha256+ OK Checking hash(es) for Image atf-2 ... sha256+ OK Checking hash(es) for Image atf-3 ... sha256+ OK ERROR: not expected type found -4001165690437497392 This source suggests, that it might be a problem with the ATF. However, my knowledge about details of the boot process are unforunately not sufficient to find a solution to this problem. How to reproduce?

Welcome to custom hardware / division exotics / subdivision retro It is hard already when its new custom hardware and main division. If nobody ported HW to mainline Linux and keep it operational, its usually quite a long path. Armbian provides build framework, that helps in the process, but hard work is still on the one that will deal with the SoC - here you can hope to find someone on forum(s) to share some specific ideas. Adding is fairly straightforward https://docs.armbian.com/Process_Contribute/#adding-a-new-board but if there are sources for boot loader, sources for kernel, or better - support in the mainline kernel. Even when you have all this, it can still be quite challenging. Each such board usually require more people, a team. When I recall how many months we lost on one of Marvell's 🤔 Espressobin is an example how board support can be made super complicated - check history from day one. If board support package is on that level ... its worse out of all we have seen here. And now its an old hardware, not interesting so much. And remain broken as we don't have anyone to deal with it / its not worth.

So my experience with Armbian is pretty broad, starting with Raspberry PI, then taking a hard left turn at Albuquerque with me successfully running a docker server on an Allwinner H3 based T95 super TV box. I’ve also run it on SBCs like the yeayeetoo Rockchip series. I’ve just never compiled a build and it is so hard to find any info from anywhere about the Armada 1500 running anything. What is the virtual system option?

These errors are fine because moonlight will try all the hw accel APIs like vaapi, vdpau and vulkan, but on rockchip platform we only need rkmpp decoder, as you can see in the log it is detected,

Hey @amazingfate, Thank you very much for the reply! I managed to build it but still a lot of errors in the log... #moonlight-qt/app/moonlight 00:00:00 - SDL Info (0): Compiled with SDL 2.30.0 00:00:00 - SDL Info (0): Running with SDL 2.30.0 00:00:00 -

sudo modprobe i2c-dev ?

Feature regressions are expected - Linux kernel is complicated machinery and without spending hours, a day or a week investigating, it's usually not possible to tell. We don't touch Rpi kernels much. We have our own kernel config, but we use official Rpi sources, so I guess 1st step would be looking if someone reported something similar https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues By newer you mean 6.12.y, 6.16.y ... or 6.6.63 ->

It appears that Heiko is the maintainer for RPi boards (all varieties?) in Armbian, but I believe @Igor also has the device and maybe he can repond. I suggest you try to talk to Heiko and see if he has something to say. I just perused the git sources and you might want to talk to Pander as well.

Brace yourself, this is going to take a long time, most likely months to years and most likely you will never get this to run. That being said, to get yourself started, you probably ought to start compiling stuff and getting yourself familiar around the armbian build framework. Do you have another SBC that is supported by Armbian? If not, it's probably best to target one of the virtual system options. I wish the documentation for this stuff was better. As of now, it is scattered throughout.

Can you confirm that you can still run X11 with Linux 6.12?

Ok, the noble_vendor_gnome image actually works. Not out of the box, you have to select "headphones" and most important, the gnome self-test "front left, front right" doesn't work. That's what was fooling me to begin with. But if you play videos, that works just fine. So for anyone on down the line confused by all of this, you need to copy a known good video or soundfile over to see if it will play. Here's the armbianmonior -u for it in any case - https://paste.armbian.com/nutedakeco However, one problem solved, new problem shows up to take its place. The current_ kernel images I've tried no longer boot off the nvme now that I have a SATA drive connected! It just sits there and hangs. The vendor images work OK, although I am seeing the SATA drive mysteriously appear and disappear upon boot. I suppose I should start a new thread for that one? I see a big long thread about SATA drives already.

@balbes150 which bios are you using, the exactly version, i updated to 9.0.0 but i had some issue. Thanks

I don't have a custom board. I have a ROCK PI 4 SE. These boards do not come with SPI flash IC soldered on the board, but have space if one chooses to solder SPI flash himself. Since I couldn't find flash IC that Raxda recommends: https://wiki.radxa.com/Rockpi4/hardware/spi_flash (W25Q64FV; GD25Q127CSIG;XT25F32B;XT25F128B) I found equivalent to W25Q64FV. The vendor Id of FL064LIF01 is different so I'm guessing that is why it is not recognized. I read that Piter75 had support for XTX flashes at first so other flash ICs can be added maybe? This is exactly what my goal is but since I'm new to this I though posting on forum and ask for some help would not hurt. Thanks

That is because it is the linux kernel that is driving you own/custom SPI-flash chip. When you power on the board, it follows a certain priority of devices, see schematics of the board. It might be that SPI-flash is not included. And if included, the U-Boot you put in there might assume different wiring or none at all. It is can be because the U-Boot config it is compiled from does not include the right options. So create a custom U-Boot for your custom board.

I use a Raspberry Pi 5 and use I2C1 with external eeprom. With v25.5.1 up to kernel 6.6.63-current-bcm2711, /dev/i2c-1 is there (activated in /boot/firmware/config.txt with dtparam=i2c_arm=on) and communication with eeprom works fine. With newer kernel versions, communication works not, /dev/i2c-1 does not exist anymore in this case without changing any configuration, just selected newer kernel using armbian-config Any ideas why this happens?

Hello, Thru various and sundry means, I have acquired this unusual specimen; a ZeroDesktop MiiPC M1140. This was originally intended to be a "family desktop PC" that runs on Android Jelly Bean and was released in 2013. It looks like a TV box had a child with a NUC. The machine runs a Marvell Armada 1500 Plus processor with 1GB of RAM and 4GB of storage. The company, Zerodesktop, ran a Kickstarter campaign to fund producing these - my model is one of the Kickstarter Editions. I know that the Marvell Armada 1500 was used in the Google Chromecast 2, along with a bunch of set top boxes. ZeroDesktop no longer exists as a company, having only produced these machines between 2013-14 then going belly up. There are no software updates to the Android system available (nor any mention of the device or the Armada 1500 as a supported processor for Android distributions at all). The only resources online about this device are about 7 out of date (mostly negative) tech reviews from the era. I want to make this thing run Armbian. Does anyone have a clue how to do it? I see that there are 2 development boards made by Marvell listed here but they are vastly different processors. I'm definitely an advanced user but have never compiled my own build before, especially when the system components are so mysterious and info is unavailable like this. I am up for the challenge if anyone can assist. Thank you!

There are unfortunately no detailed instructions how to add new boards or board families to the build framework yet. This is a very extensive topic. However there are a few existing pull requests that should give clues like https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/7902/files No, since it is community supported use Stating section for Rockchip devices in forums. I did a quick check on your work. - dts files which aren't upstreamed (yet) shall be added in full into the dt folder of the equivalent kernel patch directory (patch/kernel/archive/rockchip64-6.16/dt to say). You can use code { font-family: Consolas,"courier new"; color: crimson; background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2); padding: 2px; font-size: 105%; } kernel-dtb build command to extract such a full tree. - this also avoids my 2nd concern which is modifying the existing orangepi-5.dtsi and disabling nodes which where later re-added with another patch. - if possible try to bump to latest mainline u-boot, so either v2025.04 or wait a bit longer for v2025.07 which is currently RC.

I was having similar issues with this Armbian version, but on an Orange Pi Zero 3. I suggest trying to download the image again, as they received updates today, at least the Zero 3. In my case, I wasn't able to download any packages because every time the firmware tried to update, the kernel collapsed.

Hi. I have soldered a Spansion FL064LIF01 SPI flash on my ROCK PI 4 SE and it is not recognised by debug console: The wierd thing is that "lsblk" detect it: I have connected an ASM1166 SATA controller to m.2 slot and installing armbian to boot from SD and have root on SATA works fine, but fails if install to boot from MTD and have root on SATA. Is there any way to include ASM1166 driver in u-boot to be able to boot the board using MTD+ SATA ASM1166 adapter? Is it possible to make u-boot to cycle from eMMC->SPI->SD->USB->NVME->PXE like in RPi5 for example? Thanks
