Xorg does not start on both of buster and focal xfce images. I didn't investigated this further because it was easier to install vanilla-gnome-desktop and vanilla-gnome-default-settings on focal image.

 

Ethernet cable detection issue (that is discussed here) is still reproducible with uboot 2021.04, as it was with uboot 2020.10 (same workaround still applies).

 

Another problem I noticed is not working HDMI Audio (unless I missing something). Yes, I tried to tinker around alsamixer and codec's i2s/pcm/spdif options, as well as boost levels, but this doesn't change anything. Is anyone got HDMI audio working on this board with Armbian images?

  

 

Tried this workaround but it does not help. Any other ideas?

 

We are working with Amlogic and BayLibre to get to the root of the ethernet issues on mainline for Amlogic chips. We should have a resolution soon. One was caused by double poking a register in Designware's IP. There's a secondary issue we are looking into.

So the issue is in the dwmac u-boot driver. Leaving it on in u-boot and it will corrupt memory somewhere between 1GB and 2GB. Disabling dwmac fixes it but you also have to add phy initialization code to Linux driver.
