  1. Hey,

    Was able to bring up a pretty smooth armbian installation for a lightweight desktop. Tips for others:

    Underclock Memory for stability
     

    cat /etc/rc.local
    #!/bin/sh
    echo 1560000000 > /sys/devices/platform/dmc/devfreq/dmc/max_freq




    For bluetooth blacklist the following modules:
     

    blacklist pgdrv
    blacklist btusb
    blacklist btrtl
    blacklist btbcm
    blacklist btintel

     

     

    NVME boot, use armbian-installer, but I had to manually change the firmware to this one: https://wiki.radxa.com/Rock5/install/spi#Simple_method to get NVME boot to work

    For GPU acceleration install panfrost. (See rock5b ambian page)

     

    To get my widescreen monitor to work I needed to switch to the daily kernel.

    The best browser experience seems to be the brave arm64 build.


    One thing that is annoying is the mouse pointer is constantly flickering while using brave. Does anyone know a solution to this?

    What is the image trying ? What dtb ? How do you set up a dtb ? What is the exact version of the image installed on the eMMC ?

    What media are you trying to use (sd or USB) ?

     

    What is the image trying ?

    Armbian_5.71_Aml-s9xxx_Ubuntu_bionic_default_4.20.2_20190118.img.xz

     

    What dtb ? How do you set up a dtb ?

    I remember not having to install a DTB because everything worked out of the box.

     

    What is the exact version of the image installed on the eMMC ?

     

    I believe it was the 5.34 server image.

     

    What media are you trying to use (sd or USB) ?

    I have tried both but it is either not booting at all or booting from MMC and oopsing..

  3. Hi all,

     

    I'm trying to compile kodi with the openelec patches so it can work on armbian.

     

    I've got cedarx installed and am using the following configure:

     

     

    ./configure --enable-non-free --enable-codec=cedarx --prefix=/opt/kodi --disable-x11 --disable-gl --disable-vdpau --disable-vaapi

     

    However kodi isn't finding a display. Are these configure options correct?
