I'll check that! Thanks, Igor! I took a break from it as building Gnome had the best results from any other DE/WM with Wayland or X11. Also, I'm using Edge Kernel with 6.13, that's running great!

ok, I found it's a feature as i3 doesn't support wayland it's not added.

Hi, I've been compiling my own Armbian images since 6.13-rc5, and now 6.13 and I noticed that when I compile i3, youtube videos and webgl tests don't work as great when I compile i3 with mesa-vpu as it does when I compile e.g., cinnamon. I also noticed that the suffix is not -mesa-desktop, only -desktop. Is it as per design and i3 doesn't include mesa at all, or is it some kind of bug? Thanks!

I'm adding this here as I want to contribute to the community, but I'm still not sure how. I've been playing with Armbian Build lately and found it's great for quick build images for testing purposes before it's officially made available. So I started build my own images with i3, mate, kde, and I noticed that, in my personal taste, the one that was better suited for my needs was Sway, but there's no desktop image with it. So I built a Server version and start installing it. I know it may not be of interest of everybody, so I was planning to do it for myself, so I can continue building with the interface, but having Sway "automatically" installed. If/when I'm able to do this, I could put this in CSC mode in the repo, or I shouldn't do that as it's going to bloat the system more as there's no interest in having yet another WM/DE available? I'm thinking of this as an alternative to i3,as I noticed that, in my board, Wayland is performing much better than XOrg/X11.

What version of Armbian are you using? I using the latest release version (24.11.2 Debian version with Cinamon) in a Ultra-Wide @3440x1440. When I was in a rolling I can only do 16:9/1080p, also.

Just for the record: I also have an OPi5+ and I use the OPi power brick with an NVMe, in my case I have a Crucial P3 Plus 500GB PCIe M.2 2280 SSD CT500P3PSSD8 and it works like a charm, no hickups or issues of any kind. Maybe yours is not compatible with the board?

I noticed that the 6.10 don't have te blue/green heartbeat, it stays red. Also, hdmi for unusual resolutions is not working yet. Maybe you have the feeling that it's not turning on because of that. Can you try in a different monitor?

Check armbian-install. It will copy you SD to NVME and you're done. https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Getting-Started/#how-to-install-to-emmc-sata-nvme-usb

Did you get any luck with this? I tried adding the files to /boot/overlay-user/ and set the user_overlays in armbianEnv.txt but I didn't succeeded. I followed this guide: https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Armbian_overlays/

That's right! I just tested it today and it's working fine!

Which HDMI port did you connect? I was testing it today and it only showed some video in the midle HDMI port. One thing I noticed is that it's still not working with Ultra Wide monitors. I was able to work with it in 1080p, but not in 2k@21x9.

how exactly are you writing to the SD card? I just did it today with Gnome Image Writer and it worked without any issue. The image I used was https://mirror-us-stl1.armbian.airframes.io/dl/orangepi5-plus/archive/Armbian_24.5.1_Orangepi5-plus_noble_vendor_6.1.43_gnome-oibaf_desktop.img.xz There is no need to unpack. Right click -> open with Image Writer -> select destination (SD card) -> wait until the process finishes -> boot with SD card -> setup Armbian -> start using.

I've never heard of this and doesn't look like it's Armbian. Did you try an image from the official mirros? https://redirect.armbian.com/orangepi5-plus/archive/

I tried a few images and I wasn't able to use only the 6.8.10/11 because of video issues. All the others with kernel 6.1 worked fine. Maybe you're using the non-plus version of the images?

Thanks!

So the non oibaf releases don't come with the ppa only? If I configure it I'll have the same benefits as the Gnome one? Sorry, I just prefer other WM/DE than Gnome , but I'd like to have all the latest and greatest as in that release.

Can you help me with the contents of the file name? I understand edge, vendor, but then there are other suffixes that are not clear to me: are gnome-oibaf_desktop the same "kernel release" as the xfce_desktop or minimal? Or there are patches that are applied only to a specific version? Thanks!

I'd like to congratulate you for a great release (24.2.1) with KDE! I was looking for a guide to install KDE in a minimum version, but I could not trim it down enough, and this release solved my issues. Everything is working smoothly, video acceleration is there, Wi-Fi (AX210) is there, bluetooth is there! A real pleasure to use. Best, team!

Did you try any of the rolling builds from GitHub, to check it could work? As DroZDI said: we need kernel 6.1 as a minimum.

Great, @Igor! That fixed the last warning I got! Thank you!

Hi the error is back: GPG error: http://mirrors.jevincanders.net/armbian/apt noble InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 93D6889F9F0E78D5 I tried to add the key, but apt-key is deprecated: $wget -qO - http://mirrors.jevincanders.net/armbian/apt/armbian.key | sudo apt-key add - Warning: apt-key is deprecated. Manage keyring files in trusted.gpg.d instead (see apt-key(8)). OK From man page it should be using a new .asc file, instead of the .key: If your existing use of apt-key add looks like this: wget -qO- https://myrepo.example/myrepo.asc | sudo apt-key add - Then you can directly replace this with (though note the recommendation below): wget -qO- https://myrepo.example/myrepo.asc | sudo tee /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/myrepo.asc So just seat and wait for the repos to adjust. EDIT: I run armbian-config again to reconfigure mirrors, and I get this one: http://armbian.chi.auroradev.org/apt that runs fine. In the end I got a warning: W: http://apt.armbian.com/dists/noble/InRelease: Key is stored in legacy trusted.gpg keyring (/etc/apt/trusted.gpg), see the DEPRECATION section in apt-key(8) for details I did the upgrade and then tried updating again, and I got the same issue.

Yes, no lucky. Have set all the location information in armbian-config, but it's locked in phy#0 (self-managed) country 00: DFS-UNSET

Tried the latest version, still no lucky with the Wi-Fi, but I noticed this: iw reg get global country 00: DFS-UNSET (755 - 928 @ 2), (N/A, 20), (N/A), PASSIVE-SCAN (2402 - 2472 @ 40), (N/A, 20), (N/A) (2457 - 2482 @ 20), (N/A, 20), (N/A), AUTO-BW, PASSIVE-SCAN (2474 - 2494 @ 20), (N/A, 20), (N/A), NO-OFDM, PASSIVE-SCAN (5170 - 5250 @ 80), (N/A, 20), (N/A), AUTO-BW, PASSIVE-SCAN (5250 - 5330 @ 80), (N/A, 20), (0 ms), DFS, AUTO-BW, PASSIVE-SCAN (5490 - 5730 @ 160), (N/A, 20), (0 ms), DFS, PASSIVE-SCAN (5735 - 5835 @ 80), (N/A, 20), (N/A), PASSIVE-SCAN (57240 - 63720 @ 2160), (N/A, 0), (N/A) phy#0 (self-managed) country 00: DFS-UNSET ... And I was not able to set the country for phy#0 at all. I've tried iw reg set BR but will only change global, but phy#0 will stay the same. Also, this config is lost once I reboot. In the legacy version, this configuration is fine: ... phy#0 (self-managed) country BR: DFS-UNSET ...

The one posted by Efe here is official, do you mean you want something more official than that?
