It seemed like EVERYONE was talking about "looking into" getting Armbian going on this box. I did my best.
Built from the Rock5b images.
WiFi: Broadcom BCM43752 / AP6275P 802.11ax "WiFi 6"
Panthor + Mesa GPU stack
Open PanVK Vulkan + Panfrost GL GPU driver
Gpu no longer pinned to 800MHz. Power toggles cycle it 600MHz, 800MHz, and 1000MHz. (the CPU also scales)
Desktop compositing on the GPU
A command is needed to set monitor resolution. Default is 1080p.
Other Findings:
CPU frequency was scanned under load:
LITTLE cores (Cortex-A55): 1800 MHz
BIG cores (Cortex-A76): 2208 MHz
Those were the scaling_cur_freq readings. The vendor DTB caps the A76 at 2208 MHz: the physical max is 2.4 GHz but that OPP entry isn't in the table.
