Any direction on where to look/fix?

There are three ways to do this. The first simplest is to assemble a binary debian package using the Armbiyan assembly system and then convert it to a rpm package directly in a running OpenSuse OS. The second way is more complicated but it is more correct. You can take patches directly from the build system and apply them to OpenSuse kernel sources in the sequence in which the build system does this while running. Next, build the kernel package using rpmbuild. The third way is the same as the second but use OBS. This will allow you to have your own repository of signed packages and install them using zypper. You can find like-minded people anywhere on our planet, including this place. Hope this helps you.

Yes, cpufrequtils has been removed upstream. It's not anymore in Debian stable. https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=names&keywords=cpufrequtils

Hey, I think I'm impacted by the same issue. I've replaced the original fan of the HC4 with a Noctua NF-A4x10 5V PWM earlier this year. It was working as expected, but since couple weeks the fan is at 100% speed continuously, which is loud. It sounds like it's a software upgrade that broke the PWM control, but no idea which one. I've done part of the same testing you mentioned but didn't managed to find a fix neither. I'm probably even more beginner than you, so I don't think I can help much unfortunately. How can we get more eyes on this issue? Did you post on Odroid Forum?

OK, so I installed the latest Debian/Trixie + Cinnamon + vendor kernel available and audio is working. The name of the cards and mixers are different though: speaker-test worked both by specifying the mixer (... -D plughw:CARD=rockchiphdmi0,DEV=0) or through PulseAudio's ALSA emulation after setting the default sink to the rockchiphdmi0 card. The list of audio cards is different in the vendor kernel than what's available OOB with the edge kernel, so I'm not sure if the configuration is comparable. But the audio port/cable combo seems to be fine so there's that..

Yes, exactly.

Oh are you saying that the Tuxedo v1.0.30 package works with the latest 6.12.44 headers? I did not try moving ahead to the latest as I didn't see an option to swap to that kernel in armbian-config (only to go back to 6.12.32). My current kernel is 6.12.41 (default install). I assume I can manually update via: sudo apt-get update && apt upgrade -y and then install the headers afterwards.

Moved to Community support area and adjusted tag for proper board identification

I can try it, just to check that the cable/port combo is ok. I'm not sure how would that help - the reason I'm using the edge kernel is to use the upstream/Linux kernel implementation and the implementation may not be the same as the one provided in the outdated vendor image.

tl;dr; You need to fix the driver code similar we do it here https://github.com/armbian/build/tree/main/patch/misc I tried this: https://github.com/albertogviana/YT6801 (but tuxedo v1.0.30 might have this already fixed) https://paste.armbian.com/xeraretaxu.diff I fix the most obvious errors, but don't have time to deal with this code. Some intermediate or old kernels might be missing matched headers. They are present at latest kernel (tested). BTW, it works for me: khadas-mind:Downloads:% sudo dpkg -i tuxedo-yt6801_1.0.30tux4_all.deb Selecting previously unselected package tuxedo-yt6801.

I suggest to confirm first that it works with the vendor image, just in case. If you boot the vendor image you could also gather some info, like aplay -L, etc.

@Dantes Board is now supported, i advice you to wait next nightly release for fix some issue on cpufreq driver. If experiencing some issue please report on https://forum.armbian.com/forum/85-rockchip/

@Ducdanh Nguyen, can you contact seller of your tv box and ask if they can provide firmware (or "firmware update") for it?

This issue isn't for orangepione, but for nanopineo - which I can't find in the dropdowns anymore. Perhaps it is no longer supported. I'm able to build a working image using this command: ./compile.sh BOARD=nanopineo BRANCH=current RELEASE=noble BUILD_MINIMAL=no BUILD_DESKTOP=no KERNEL_CONFIGURE=no COMPRESS_OUTPUTIMAGE=xz However, if I add the CPU governance variables, such as this: ./compile.sh BOARD=nanopineo BRANCH=current RELEASE=noble BUILD_MINIMAL=no BUILD_DESKTOP=no KERNEL_CONFIGURE=no COMPRESS_OUTPUTIMAGE=xz CPUMIN=81600 CPUMAX=96000 ...the build fails with the following error text: ./compile.sh mike [🚸] This script requires root privileges; Docker is unavailable [ trying to use sudo ] [🌿] Applying cmdline param [ 'PREFER_DOCKER': '(unset)' --> 'no' early ] [🌱] Skip cmdline param [ 'ARMBIAN_RELAUNCHED': already set to 'yes' early ] [🌿] Applying cmdline param [ 'SET_OWNER_TO_UID': '(unset)' --> '1000' early ] [🌱] Skip cmdline param [ 'PREFER_DOCKER': already set to 'no' after config 'config-mike.conf' ] [🌱] Skip cmdline param [ 'ARMBIAN_RELAUNCHED': already set to 'yes' after config 'config-mike.conf' ] [🌱] Skip cmdline param [ 'SET_OWNER_TO_UID': already set to '1000' after config 'config-mike.conf' ] [🌱] Starting single build process [ nanopineo ] [🌱] Checking [ basic host setup ] [🌱] Build host OS release [ noble ] [🌱] Build host architecture [ arm64 ] [🌱] Sourcing board configuration [ /home/mike/build/config/boards/nanopineo.csc ] [✅] change-tracking: after sourcing board file config/boards/nanopineo.csc [ BOARDFAMILY='sun8i' ] [✅] change-tracking: after sourcing board file config/boards/nanopineo.csc [ BOOTCONFIG='nanopi_neo_defconfig' ] [✅] change-tracking: after defaulting LINUXFAMILY to BOARDFAMILY [ LINUXFAMILY='sun8i' ] [🌱] Starting main configuration [🌱] Using REVISION from [ main VERSION file: '25.11.0-trunk' ] [🌿] Enabling extension [ armbian-config ] [🌱] Sourcing family configuration [ /home/mike/build/config/sources/families/sun8i.conf ] [🌿] Enabling extension [ sunxi-tools ] [💥] Error 1 occurred in main shell [ at /home/mike/build/lib/functions/configuration/main-config.sh:552 source_family_config_and_arch() --> lib/functions/configuration/main-config.sh:552 do_main_configuration() --> lib/functions/configuration/main-config.sh:291 do_with_logging() --> lib/functions/logging/section-logging.sh:81 do_with_conditional_logging() --> lib/functions/logging/section-logging.sh:111 prep_conf_main_build_single() --> lib/functions/main/config-prepare.sh:29 cli_standard_build_run() --> lib/functions/cli/cli-build.sh:22 armbian_cli_run_command() --> lib/functions/cli/utils-cli.sh:136 cli_entrypoint() --> lib/functions/cli/entrypoint.sh:208 main() --> compile.sh:50 ] I looked at the source_family_config_and_arch() function source, and the file that gets passed into it (/home/mike/build/config/sources/families/sun8i.conf) exists on my box, but something is causing the failure at line 552 anyway.

So i have found what's we dealing with: it is HiSilicon hi3798mv310. See attached proc_version and config.gz. Furthermore, I've installed eset nod32 antivirus on this box and it found some suspicious apps (see photo). I will send them to eset for more thorough analysis. Overall this news is "Not great, not terrible". @Ducdanh Nguyen, I think there is no pre-built armbian or other linux distro images for this chip. I did a brief google search and found only this SDK: https://github.com/JasonFreeLab/HiSTBLinuxV100R005C00SPC050 As it seems to me, you can compile it and get some clean linux for this box. Let us know if it works. BTW, author of this SDK recommend to burn it using HiTool. But HiTool uses UART (only?) to interact with chip, and we don't have UART wired on our board. There are seems to be option to upgrade it from usb flash, but how will this work - idk... Also, here is related discussion: What about debugging by usb - either through enabling Android "Debug over usb" function or booting with reset button pushed - I doubt it will work. Nevertheless, this tv box is usable for its direct purpose. All that should be done, is replacing heatsink and changing firmware to trusted one (without any trojans and viruses). BTW, funny fact: hi3798mv310 have only 3 USB interfaces, but on our board there are 4 USB connectors. LOL! I'm wondering if there any scam museum in the world? If any, this box will be a very interesting piece for them. config.gz proc_version

moved since neither a review nor a tutorial. I made a writeup just a few days ago how to get an idea about how Armbian puts its kernel and uboot sources together with an example for a different board:

I haven't tried the vendor image, but I have another SBC (RasPi4) that can succesfully output audio through the monitor speakers, so the monitor is ok. I could re-test the HDMI cable I guess, but since the video signal is ok I don't expect the audio to have issues.

@Sergey LepeshkinThanks! But i mean the reset button, but i will try since i dont have time and on school

So I recently loaded the x86 Armbian 6.12 - Ubuntu 24.04 (Noble) server image onto a GEEKOM Air12 Lite N150 (wow that was a mouthful), only to find the ethernet port missing... turns out the Motorcomm YT6801 Ethernet Controller it uses is not in the mainline distro and has to be built manually. I have so far referenced the following resources about this: https://github.com/albertogviana/YT6801 https://github.com/dante1613/Motorcomm-YT6801 https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=438301 https://deb.tuxedocomputers.com/ubuntu/pool/main/t/tuxedo-yt6801/ and run the gamut for two days straight without much luck. First the linux headers were not installed, so I installed them through armbian-config, only to find out they were still not available because potentially the headers are for 6.12.41 are not available? https://mirror.twds.com.tw/armbian-apt/pool/main/l/linux-headers-current-x86/ (I don't see them listed here, I do see a 6.12.32 and a 6.12.44) Then I rolled back the Kernel to 6.12.32 and tried to install the headers again them through armbian-config, only to find out they were still not available?!?!? So I installed them by downloading the *.deb directly and manually installed them. Now I can get the latest tuxedo driver (tuxedo-yt6801_1.0.30tux4_all.deb) to build and install, but the module will not load. journalctl | grep "yt6801" shows .gnu.linkonce.this_module section size must match the kernel's built struct module size at run time here is the output from the install: root@Armbian:~# sudo dpkg -i tuxedo-yt6801_1.0.30tux4_all.deb (Reading database ... 79866 files and directories currently installed.)

Do you get sound (HDMI) through your monitor speakers with the official vendor image?

https://fi.mirror.armbian.de/apt/pool/noble-utils/b/base-files/ They are in. Perhaps need some time for repo to get in sync.

Building a rolling release is more than just showing that in the MOTD. If you do "sudo apt upgrade" in an OS image you just built, you probably will have zero or one packages to upgrade. If you start with an image built a long time ago, or with packages defined a long time ago, then "sudo apt upgrade" would take a long time.

I have the same debian as you: 5.1.4-xxx-v4l2request, installed over Debian Bookworm, with Linux 6.15 (OS built by myself). When I tried the ffmpeg-7.x.x-v4l2request for Trixie, I could not get hardware acceleration.

Hello, dear armbian community. I am using Orange Pi 5 plus, and I want to use kernel-6.16-5-edge-rockchip64 by armbian, as works much better than actual mainline (I have broken HDMI sound, buggy OpenGL, no power profiles) I, however, want to build kernel for different distro (OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, aka binpkg-rpm). Where do I get kernel sources to do this? (And is it the right place to ask this question?)
