Tested "Armbian_23.09_Starfive2_lunar_current_6.1.31_xfce_desktop.img.xz" and it works well. Video appears to be a bit better as I can play back a 720p video, though not full 720p size. Sound is still great on HDMI and crackly on the jack. Did you want feedback on which programs work/don't work? __ ___ _ _____ _ ____ \ \ / (_)___(_) ___ _ __ | ___(_)_ _____|___ \ \ \ / /| / __| |/ _ \| '_ \| |_ | \ \ / / _ \ __) | \ V / | \__ \ | (_) | | | | _| | |\ V / __// __/ \_/ |_|___/_|\___/|_| |_|_| |_| \_/ \___|_____| Welcome to Armbian 23.09 Lunar with Linux 6.1.31-star64 No end-user support: built from trunk System load: 44% Up time: 5 min Memory usage: 5% of 7.72G IP: 192.168.2.164 CPU temp: 39°C Usage of /: 8% of 58G [ General system configuration (beta): armbian-config ] Last login: Sun Sep 24 16:58:11 EDT 2023 on ttyS0 root@starfive2:~# neofetch root@starfive2 -------------- ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ OS: Armbian (23.09) riscv64 ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ Host: StarFive VisionFive V2 __¦¦ ¦¦__ Kernel: 6.1.31-star64 __¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦__ Uptime: 6 mins __¦¦ ¦¦ ¦¦ ¦¦__ Packages: 1514 (dpkg) __¦¦ ¦¦ ¦¦ ¦¦__ Shell: bash 5.2.15 __¦¦ ¦¦ ¦¦ ¦¦__ Resolution: 1920x1080 __¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦__ Terminal: /dev/ttyS0 __¦¦ ¦¦ ¦¦ ¦¦__ CPU: (4) @ 1.500GHz __¦¦ ¦¦ ¦¦ ¦¦__ Memory: 425MiB / 7908MiB __¦¦ ¦¦ ¦¦ ¦¦__ __¦¦ ¦¦__ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ root@starfive2:~#

@balbes150 No problem on testing as that's what I do for work, along with maintaining an old C++/MFC program. Yes, that change did it, thanks. Still learning the boot environment so good to know how "bootcmd" is used.

@balbes150 Tried the above but it didn't work for me. As per your instructions above I: - Changed firmware to 3.6.1 - Burned SD card with "reset-default-env-uboot-visionfive2-3.6.1.img" and booted, then turned device off. Attached file "boot-reset-default.txt" shows this. - Burned SD card with "update_uboot-visionfive2-3.6.1.img" and booted, then turned device off. Attached file "boot-update-uboot.txt" shows this - Booted again (stopped autoboot by hitting key) and did a "printenv" so you can see if the changes above worked, then turned device off. Attached file "boot-printenv.txt" shows this - Burned SD card with "Armbian_23.09_Starfive2_lunar_edge_6.6.0.img.xz" and booted, which failed. Attached file "boot-lunar_edge_6.6.0-failed.txt" shows this So, had a look at the "printenv" output and found nothing "runs" your new env variables "boot_mmc_new", "boot_emmc_new", or "boot_nvme_new"! I also noticed that in the failed boot log the message "## Error: "boot2" not defined". So I booted again, stopped autoboot, did a "setenv boot2 run boot_mmc_new", then "env save", booted again and it worked! Attached file "boot-lunar_edge_6.6.0-worked.txt" shows this. I don't think this is the correct way to "fix" this issue, but it works. Let me know if I did something wrong. boot-reset-default.txt boot-update-uboot.txt boot-printenv.txt boot-lunar_edge_6.6.0-failed.txt boot-lunar_edge_6.6.0-worked.txt

Tested 5.15.130, lunar and sid and both worked fine.

I have a Philips 227E-QPH, 1080p IPS display. I also thought this may be the issue so tried my main monitor, an AOC AGON AG271QX 1440p monitor, but it makes no difference.

I've included a few files in case it helps. This is just after downgrading to 2.11.5, rebooting to u-boot, then defaulting and saving the environment: 1 - 2.11.5-UBoot-clean-before-update-printenv.log 2 - 2.11.5-Doing-update-and-printenv.log 3 - 6.5-Normal-startup-fails.log - normal startup with monitor, keyboard and mouse plugged in. This fails. 4 - 6.5-Startup-HDMI_KB_Mouse_Unplugged.log - starts okay, get login prompt on UART console. Plug in monitor, no video.

Sorry about the delay, was on vacation. I did install 2.11.5 and your updater then worked. However, I am still unable to run anything with kernel 6.5. All other releases work fine. I played a bit and found that with kernel 6.5, if I replace the regular dtb (jh7110-starfive-visionfive-2-v1.3b.dtb) with the 4Gig one (jh7110-starfive-visionfive-2-v1.3b-4gb.dtb), unplug the video and start the board it starts okay, and if I then plug in the video it works. But if I leave the video plugged in it fails the same way as with the regular dtb. The console output is the same as I provided before. If I leave the video unplugged with the 8Gig dtb it also fails as before. Maybe I have a defective board.

Can't get 20230825-current xfce desktop to boot. I have 8G. Note I'm still on u-boot 3.1.5. as I can't update using your updater, as per previous posts. Which is the "correct file"? The one on the SD Card appears to be the same as the one I downloaded today: kernel_comp_addr_r=0x90000000 kernel_comp_size=0x10000000 U-Boot SPL 2021.10 (Jun 21 2023 - 13:42:04 +0800) DDR version: dc2e84f0.

Also copied most of the /boot folder from the Armbian SD card to nvme partition 3 and renamed as required. I think I broke some things as sound is a little worse, but it's nice to have it a little more responsive! Besides, I have too much time on my hands;-) Also attached the console startup, for anyone interested. It does show some unusual stuff. bootlog.txt Now going to try some of the new images.

Okay, log is attached, from an SD burned with 'Armbian_23.06_Starfive2_sid_legacy_5.15.115_xfce_desktop.img'. It is not from the first boot. Let me know if you wanted this from a freshly burned SD card and I'll redo. Quick observation - this morning when I booted I had no video on the monitor (again, this was not the first boot with the SD card). Rebooted and got video, but it had some tearing. Rebooted again and it was fine. Has not happened again over several reboots since then. Understood about not installing u-boot/spl 3.4.5. Will stick with 3.1.5 for now. Thanks for the warning. startup.log

Yes, that worked. Was confused when I saw this yesterday because both options under Default Sink are 'Built-in Audio Stereo 100%'.

Okay, tried that and do get 8 Gig, but no display on the monitor. Only UART console works. No problem as I can test with 4 Gig for now.

Because it didn't work! Just to be sure it wasn't an SD card issue I just burned update-uboot-star64.img the same way I burned the sid image I used for testing yesterday to it.

My Visionfive 2 board is 1.3b and has 3.1.5 bootloader. The sound was much better, although it played out of the HDMI and I couldn't find a way to get it to go out the jack. I know you mentioned I should be able to switch between the two (jack or HDMI), but couldn't find that setting. Had some trouble grabbing windows for sizing. Seems to be offset a bit as the sizing indicator appears while the mouse cursor is well inside the window on the bottom, and above the window at the top. Same issue at the corners.

@lampra, I have 3.1.5 bootloader and didn't need to update. In fact the updater didn't work as I tried it because I wasn't sure what version was required either.

Installed from 'Armbian_23.06_Starfive2_lunar_legacy_5.15.115_xfce_desktop.img.xz'. Didn't have a lot of time but desktop came up fine, video on desktop played back fine. Audio was pretty noisy with some other videos I tried. I'm new to this - should I let you know about any issues I find here, or somewhere else? Also, should i test the 'lunar_legacy' or 'sid_legacy' release, or both?
