    All kernel and header packages for the sunxi family are built from https://github.com/megous/linux/tree/orange-pi-5.9

     

    I'm running 5.10.12 on opi PC2 and gettin the same problem with V4L2_PIX_FMT_SUNXI_TILED_NV12 which is not defined in /usr/include/linux/videodev2.h

     

    It is defined in that source tree

    https://github.com/megous/linux/blob/orange-pi-5.10/include/uapi/linux/videodev2.h

     

    How is it getting lost in the armbian build process?

  2. I had a problem with ext4 and data being committed every 30 seconds and changing commit interval in fstab made no difference to fix it I modified:

     

    /proc/sys/vm/dirty_expire_centisecs

     

    to 500 (5 seconds). 30 seconds is default

     

    You can monitor it with:

     

     cat /proc/meminfo | grep "Dirty" -A1

     

  3. The latest update on my OPI pc2 has reduced the max cpu freq from 1.3ghz to 1.01ghz.

     

    I believe the old minfreq was 120mhz?

     

    linux-stretch-root-next-orangepipc2_5.85_arm64.deb

     

    /etc/default/cpufrequtils

    
    # WARNING: this file will be replaced on board support package (linux-root-...) upgrade
    ENABLE=true
    MIN_SPEED=480000
    MAX_SPEED=1010000
    GOVERNOR=ondemand
  4. I have a similar issue on opi PC2 with 4.19.25-sunxi64 and a DVB-T2 USB dongle. The problem is solved by locking the frequency scaling.

    E.g. I have

     

    # WARNING: this file will be replaced on board support package (linux-root-...) upgrade
    ENABLE=true
    MIN_SPEED=120000
    MAX_SPEED=1400000
    #MAX_SPEED=500000
    GOVERNOR=conservative

    If MIN_SPEED and MAX_SPEED are the same you don't get any problems.

    Performance gov works OK (it locks to max freq)

    ondemand or interactive don't fix it unless you lock frequency

    I can lock frequency at 420mhz and it works fine so it's not related to actual frequency

    If I set MIN=800 and max=1300 it still gives problems

     

    my error:

    some others with the issue:

     

    https://github.com/armbian/build/issues/1000

  5. On the PC2 I found the default governor (ondemand?) makes the freq spike too much, conservative prevents it from just hitting max freq every time you load it.

     

    I run conservative with an up_threshold of 50 (I think default is 25%)

     

    IIRC the parameter that allows it to consider IO as part of the load is not available on conservative so you lose a small amount of performance at the top end. If you're using USB wifi dongles it also doesn't want to increase freq in a hurry when running conservative.

     

  6. I have just noticed the same issue when trying to use armbian-config on pi pc2, as have others here:

    https://github.com/armbian/config/issues/33

     

    My armbianEnv.txt looks like this

    
    /var/log.hdd/aptitude {
      rotate 6
      monthly
      compress
      missingok
      notifempty
    }

    How can I regenerate armbianEnv.txt without doing a reinstall?

     

    edit: pulled it from the .img

  7. I thought I'd share some links to JMS578 based enclosures I've found:

     

    ACASIS FA-08US - cheapest on ebay but also on ali https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Acasis-fa08us-2-5-inch-usb3-0-aluminum-external-hard-drive-disk-SATA-SSD-mechanical-solid/32818921168.html

    Metal enclosure with plastic tray, has 4 mounting holes to secure the drive to the tray. Firmware Version: v0.5.0.8

     

    CHIPAL clear enclosure - Firmware Version: v133.2.0.2. This enclosure gave me errors after running fstrim with an ADATA SU650 but not with another SSD I have. It works fine with discard. The SU650 + fstrim works fine in the ACASIS enclosure.

     

    JZYuan adapter - according the pictures on aliexpress it has JMS578 but I've not personally tested it

  8. Mt76 based dongles should work. A6210 works OK for me. I get around 160mbit/250mbit on 5ghz AC

    110mbit on 2.4ghz

    Around £15 on ebay. Argos sell them for £30 but reduce to £20 on occasion

     

    https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/mediatek

    The drivers are under active development https://github.com/openwrt/mt76/commits/master

     

    some of the RTL8812AU yellow dongles from china come with RTL8812CU now. RTL8812AU perform bad even under windows so likely have poor design

    So the problem was solved!

    
    sed -i -e '1imw.l 0x01C20020 0x80101810\' /boot/boot.cmd
    mkimage -C none -A arm -T script -d /boot/boot.cmd /boot/boot.scr

    The reason of crashes was DRAM PLL value which seems too high for the boards I have.

    Default DRAM_PLL value set by u-boot 2017.05+ is 624MHz. It seems not all board support this value.

    I changed it to 600MHz by setting 0x01c20020 register to 0x1810 value (instead of 0x1910 set by u-boot) and there's no any crash anymore.

     

    The script adds "mw.l 0x01C20020 0x80101810" line to boot.cmd and then compiles boot.scr.

    After that u-boot will change DRAM_PLL value to a bit lower one to avoid crashes.

     

    Thanks everybody who helped me to find a solution.

    Special thanks to @znoxx for testing and logging :)

     

     

    Great work! I have the same problem with a PC 2 which came direct from the manufacturer

     

    Your script has some unicode characters so I removed them:

    sed -i -e '1imw.l 0x01C20020 0x80101810\' /boot/boot.cmd
    mkimage -C none -A arm -T script -d /boot/boot.cmd /boot/boot.scr

    Not for $20 shipped, but with the -for me - cheap NAS case the NanoPi Neo2 LTS is a option.

    The Neo2 is available with 512MB or 1GB of Ram and works fine inside the NAS-Case
    (I got 2 of these combinations running over a year).

     

    armbian-support for the Neo2 (H5-CPU) is fine. HDMI isnt included, but with the NAS-case he has 2 USB 2.0-Ports, GBE,
    a power-switch AND a proper Power-connector for a normal 12V power-supply :)

    Neo2 LTS:

    That looks neat and essentially gives me 3 USB ports as I would be using USB-SATA adapter anyway but it's $55 USD including shipping to the UK

    OPi PC 2 is around 23€ including ship cost to my country. But for my is a huge upgrade from OPi PC Gigabit and cpu extensions made the difference.

     

    sound good

  11. I have an orange pi PC that I use as a simple NAS (NFS, smb, iscsi) and for openVPN occasionally but want something new with GbE.

     

    What is the best upgrade that will give me 2 or more usb ports, GbE and a faster processor? With decent software support (:P)? I don't need HDMI or wifi but it would be a plus

    512MB-1GB RAM

     

    opi zero plus?

    opi PC 2?

     

    Around $20 shipped ideally

    My samsung evo 64gb went read-only recently (20 months old) and then would not boot. I copied to another card and ran fsck and all seems OK. I think the later evos were not as well made as the earlier batches.

     

     

  13. I updated to head and recompiled and still have a black screen.

     

    Do I need to edit the kernel config? CONFIG_CMA_SIZE_MBYTES is set to 16

     

    edit: appears not, this is from dmesg
     

     cma: CMA: reserved 128 MiB at 58000000

  14. Thanks.

     

    Desktop works but HW video decoding doesn't, I just get a black window - the same video works on my OpiPC.

    Does VDPAU support TV out/CVBS?
