If you want to use the official Armbian on Transpeed 8K618-T. I think all you really need is a board config file. I believe most of the drivers have been mainlined or included in the armbian patch directory. git clone https://github.com/armbian/build.git --branch v26.02 Copy this file into build/config/boards directory. transpeed-8k618-t.tvb # Allwinner H618 quad core 4GB RAM SoC WiFi USB BOARD_NAME="Transpeed 8k618-t" BOARDFAMILY="sun50iw9" BOARD_MAINTAINER="" BOOTBRANCH="tag:v2026.04" BOOTPATCHDIR="v2026-sunxi" BOOTCONFIG="transpeed-8k618-t_defconfig" OVERLAY_PREFIX="sun50i-h616" BOOT_LOGO="desktop" KERNEL_TARGET="current,edge" ./compile.sh build BOARD=transpeed-8k618-t BRANCH=edge BUILD_DESKTOP=yes BUILD_MINIMAL=no DESKTOP_ENVIRONMENT=xfce DESKTOP_TIER=mid KERNEL_CONFIGURE=no RELEASE=trixie

@NiTr0 Are you referring to the deb packages? If you compile my newer kernel version for the 8k618-t, you’ll find the kernel deb packages in the output/debs directory. I haven't had a chance to test this myself yet. I've been buried with the Radxa Cubie A7A/A7S/A7Z projects, so I haven't had the time to update the build.

@qq20739111 Sorry, I forgot to update the kernel config. Ethernet should work now. @humanus "DP works without replugging"

@Gwainer try these images https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/releases/tag/20250306

@SecLyzer You can find everything you need here

Support for DP Alt Mode is now functional for the A7S running kernel 6.6. https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/releases/tag/Radxa-cubie-A7S-v0.6.4

vkmark works on the Sway desktop. The mainline GPU driver still needs some work. I added A7A and A7S support; however, the A7S still needs to be tested. https://github.com/NickAlilovic/build/tree/Radxa-mainline-WIP I am using Debian Trixie with the XFCE desktop environment. A popup message should appear for the Sway installation. Please note that I haven't tested this configuration on other settings.

@Ducdanh Nguyen Your board is using a HiSilicon Hi3798MV310. I have no experience with this SoC. The kernel sources for this SoC are too old. You are better off finding another cheap box to run Armbian.

@Sergioclr looks like you are building armbian main branch. You are running the 6.18 kernel but old u-boot 2024.01. I don’t see the AC200/300 patch. Do you still have my build laying around. Can you show me the boot logs.

@Sergioclr output of USB-to-TTL converter. sudo dmesg

@Sergioclr Can you post your boot logs? both android and armbian. Try this. phy-supply = <&reg_dldo1>; /* Try reg_dldo1 if aldo1 (1.8V) fails */

@Sergioclr You don't need patches to edit the kernel config: config/kernel/linux-sunxi64-legacy.config sicxnull already has this patch, but with a different name: drv-pwm-sun50i-h616-enhance-pwm.patch drivers-pwm-Add-pwm-sunxi-enhance-driver-for-h616.patch To add Zero2W Ethernet settings to your DTS, you can create your own patch using git commands: Run ./compile.sh Press Ctrl+C in the middle of the kernel compilation. Navigate to the directory: cd cache/sources/linux-kernel-worktree/6.6*/ Use the following commands: sudo git status sudo git add . sudo git commit -m "dummypatch" sudo pico arch/arm64/boot/dts/allwinner/sun50i-h313-x96q-lpddr3.dts sudo git add . sudo git commit -m "Fix Ethernet" sudo git format-patch -1 1 for the first commit (0001-Fix-Ethernet.patch)... 2 for the first and second commit (0002-dummypatch.patch) ) The first "add" and "commit" cleans the kernel of previous patches, leaving you with a clean, patched kernel. The format-patch command will create a patch in the root directory of the kernel. Copy it to your patch directory. For original Armbian kernel patches, you must add them to series.armbian and series.conf.

@Sergioclr I remember someone was able to get Ethernet working by changing 16 to 0. There's two locations ethernet-phy@16 and reg = <16>; +&mdio1 { + rmii_phy: ethernet-phy@0 { + compatible = "ethernet-phy-ieee802.3-c22"; + reg = <0>; + }; +};

@qq20739111 thanks I'll remove the patch and compile a new image.

@qq20739111 I have this patch included in my latest build. I wonder if this will change the cooling and performance. I'll release a test image so you can perform a benchmark on it. I only have a heat sink and fan for the A7A right now. https://github.com/radxa/allwinner-device/commit/7716c3aacfe0ca4432ad3973ec7ea864d2b91195
