    And now there is no nodm? 


    The reason behind removing nodm is we are getting the same with lightdm (autologin) and have less complications.  nodm also have some bugs which are here for years and nobody care to fix them. Our resources are far too small to deal with bugs in 3rd party packages. 

    Current desktop builds still have nodm, while in next major update, it is gone. While the functionality remain unchanged.

    The problem is upgrade from 5.67 and prior to version 5.7x. So if you publish updated packages the issue will still be there. Please don't publish any new packages till our next PR.


    OK, images only then.

    Any chance you could build and publish a 5.70 image, and remove all the previous image release on armbian download page ? Or instead you could copy over our 5.68.


    Rebuilding images is the easiest part, its fully automated and it was ignited. I will also push updated packages to the repository but I don't have time to check. I hope problems are solved.

    And how do I fix the network/downgrade the kernel? The migration is not finished yet, so downloading new image etc. wouldn't be a big problem. Should I do just that?


    If changing cables didn't help ... add some wireless module and conduct upgrade ... or just download latest image, yes.

  5. New features and restrictions for "Technical support" area:
     
     1. Validating users, those who just register are unable to reply to topics. They are forced to open a new topic.
     2. All users have to accept conditions (cookie last one day): 1. Call to use docs and search 2. Call to support us 3. Call to provide info
     3. Each time a topic is created, you need to add: armbianmonitor and accepty several conditions

     4. Auto lock topics is now set to 365 days, pinned and featured are exempt, ... and it will take a few days before locking will be completed

    Here is  the serial console log


    Fixed by removing broken files from repository:
    pool/main/l/linux-bionic-root-next-helios4/linux-bionic-root-next-helios4_5.70_armhf.deb

    Can you make a Rk3328-tv_Ubuntu_bionic_default_desktop image that uses a 4.4.167 kernel like the default Armbian Rock64 image with working media script also included?


    We are already working several months to adopt build system to be ready for such integration. Since there is very little help and huge demand from the community side, we are moving very slow.

    Tried to update via armbian-config, but as soon as I rebooted the card/system was no longer recognised.


    This should not happen. Can you explain exactly what you did and provide serial console logs.

    I have the feeling that my only error was to stay with Jessie so long. Similarly, another error some days ago was to upgrade from 4.14 to 4.19. All else is a direct result of those two bad decisions. I am not aware of any other errors currently.


    4.19.y on NEXT branch seems to be a mistake and I am preparing a downgrade. Back to 4.14.y ... too many troubles.

    So how long will Armbian Stretch be viable or should I go for Bionic, to have another years peace and quiet, in your opinion. Just opinion and advice, I won't nail you to it.


    That is Debian people decision. We are good for another year since we will not move to next stable base right away. If you want to run OMV, you have to forget about Bionic. It will not work there. At least not without severe hacking.

    except for the DVB-T/C stick

    how could I apply this patch to an of the available releases of Armbian? This patch

    I wonder if I can downgrade to an older kernel, like 4.4.0 for example, where everything works perfectly? If yes, how?


    You can't. Support for H5 chip starts with 4.14.y

    very helpful


    We don't have capacity to deal with "you" in this number.  Simple as that.

    good community


    Use correct part of the forums - community forums.

    in a quick and dirty fashion


    Jep :) And in such cases, support assitance can't do much. We only try to fix our errors, not yours ;)

    I don't quite understand the paranoia


    It's not paranoia but switching to "I don't care" mode. We have do draw a line because this technical support is most expensive and most abused part of the project.

    But if supported Armbian stuff can just dissappear suddenly


    We can't possibly cover Debian Jessie upstream issues. That's why.

    I'll try the other way around. I have had success switching the interfaces, but the rtl8814au seems to have some rate limiting as an access point.


    Since you have 8814AU. Is that adaptor working within armbian-config? Can you set AP with it?

    I've been trying to get the card to work as a hotspot via armbian-config without success.


    That method works if drivers for this chip are capable of running AP. Standard way.  No idea if this chip works at all.

    I am sorry but I could not find any Debian Jessie image for the download ...

     

    Official OMV Stretch image with installed all updates = kernel switching without problems or code modifications

    Armbian Debian Stretch with installed all updates = kernel switching without problems or code modifications

    When you switch kernel, you need to freeze it otherwise it will be upgraded at next apt update / upgrade.
