[NVMe boot successful]

What type of m2 key would be better for OP5? 

Would cheap aliexpress ssd (netac kingspeck) with b+m key  be good for it? 

 

[Orange Pi 5 Support]

Does anybody use aliexpress acrilic case for OP5?  Does it have enought room for ssd at the bottom?

Are there  any news about mali driver for s912? I have beelink gt2 with debian-xfce installed. Mouse pointer is blinking...

glxinfo show it uses vmware driver...

[usb wifi RT5370 problem (banapa pi m1)]

My device RT5370

 

1) INTEL

I tried it on intel PC. It works fine.

dmesg has line 

[ 4098.489842] ieee80211 phy1: rt2x00_set_rf: Info - RF chipset 5370 detected

[ 4098.525834] ieee80211 phy1: rt2x00lib_request_firmware: Info - Loading firmware file 'rt2870.bin'

 

2) BANAN

dmesg has lines

[   16.911706] usbcore: registered new interface driver rt2870
[   22.671287] phy0 -> rt2x00lib_request_firmware: Error - Failed to request Firmware.

Intel has file /usr/lib/firmware/rt2870.bin          ---  Banan has file /lib/firmware/rt2870.bin

intel doesn't have loaded module rt5370sta      --- Banan has loaded module rt5370sta 

 

May be banan doesn't know about file rt2870.bin?

[usb wifi RT5370 problem (banapa pi m1)]

Stil get

"phy1 -> rt2x00lib_request_firmware: Error - Failed to request Firmware." 

I thought rt5370 requires open drivers rt2800lib,rt2800usb,rt2x00usb.

It works fine out of the box on intel pc with this drivers, I was able to run it on same bananapi with openwrt.

 

What can this message about firmware mean...?

apt install armbian-firmware-full 

should solve this problem.

It has't helped (

[usb wifi RT5370 problem (banapa pi m1)]

I can't get wifi rt5370 working at banana pi m1 on Ubuntu xenial default desktop.

dmesg show:
phy1 -> rt2x00lib_request_firmware: Error - Failed to request Firmware.

 

Looks like modules(rt2x00usb,rt2800lib,rt2800usb) are loadede but wifi still don't work.

[Armbian for Amlogic S912]

There is link to wiki at s905 topic on the first page.

[Armbian for Amlogic S912]

There are only 4 dtb's 

gxl_p212_1g

gxl_p212_2g

gxm_q200_2g

kvim

I also found vega-95 at yandex disk.

 

Where I can get vega-s96?

[Armbian for Amlogic S912]

Thanks. Where I can get dtb for beelink gt1?

dbt file names on sdcard look strange...

I tried gxm_q200_2g and gxl..-2gb, system booted but eth0 didn't get address and fiwi interface didn't present

Looks like eht0 didn't work with this 2 dtbs.

[Armbian for Amlogic S912]

Did anybody manage to run linux-4.*  kernel on beelink gt1 ?

I tried Armbian_5.32_S905X_S912_Debian_jessie_4.9.26_server_20170823.img and Armbian_5.32_S905X_S912_Ubuntu_xenial_4.9.26_server_20170823.img

Neither of them work for me. I didn't put any dtb just run as it was. No monitor image. No ssh.

Hi.

Can you write step by step manual for installing arambian on beelenk gt1 on internal storage?

With links of latest version of firmware and tools for flashing.

write image to sd-card

update android with file from sd-card(aml_update.zip) 

boot from sd-card

I've run tomcat site test. xxx/yyy - (java logic time) /(jsp-time[single thread]) 

 

8 cores

Look like 4 cores really better especially jsp(single core) computing.

Thank you, Shimon.

You are right. Now result 5000 versus 1000 before.

I gonna check java performance later.

 

[Armbian for Amlogic S912]

Somebody please run pts/ramspeed test. (at least 1)copy 1)integer)

I can't sleep calmly, I think something wrong with my beelink gt1 ....)

[Armbian for Amlogic S912]

I did it just one time.

I think you have to update android firmware - choose something like aml_autoscript in boot directory on sdcard. 

Try to find more info on first 2 pages

[Armbian for Amlogic S912]

You need update android to boot from sdcard, as I understand.

Try to use power on remote.

[Armbian for Amlogic S912]

C-ray give 114.94 points result ( http://openbenchmarking.org/result/1704125-SANE-CRAYEMP79)

I expected A53 S912 core would be 2 times faster then A7 allwinner A20 core.(according to geekbench)

Shimon, what do you think about low memory test result.

I have Beelink GT1(SN:A912** -> AP6255)
Any idea which dbt I shoult try?

 

 

[Armbian for Amlogic S912]

I've run ramspeed test, and got awfull result as Shimon. Maybe it is the reason of java performance.

 

Shimon S905                 - 3791

Shimon Alfa S912         - 1467

my beelink gt1 2G 32G - 1162

I don't use any dtd. I tried beellink.dtd and got no lan.

 

Temp during the test was like 59 *C

[Armbian for Amlogic S912]

It is look like my beelink gt1(last debian) works as slow as bananapi_1(A20 fedora mainline)  on single core tasks...

They both use oracle jdk. Jsp execution gets same time and some other tasks too.

 

1 core A20 = 1 core S912 ?????

 

Does anybody know good java benchmark?

From Mali T830 GPU (s912) Linux for Amlogic is not licensed , so it is not freely available.

Thanks. 

Did I undertand you correctly?

It's best gpu support that I can get from this build(5.27 debian).

For s905 this build provides  gpu driver and vdpau facility.

 

Anyway thank you for build. I am gonna use it as headless server.

1. Already have version 5.27 , it is better to try it.

2. To measure the resolution need edit file /boot/amlogics905x_init.sh. It was discussed many times, look in this thread or the topic s905\s905x.

3. to monitor temperature You can use the command "armbianmonitor -m"

 

 

Thanks.

I've just installed latest 5.27 Debian xfce.

glxinfo says

OpenGL vendor string: Mesa Project
OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer
OpenGL version string: 2.1 Mesa 10.3.2
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.20
OpenGL extensions:

On ubuntu it was something about VMware.

Looks like GUI works slow without mali gpu driver. I don't see mali in lsmod output.

Do I need install it manually?

I have 1920x1200 monitor.

 

Update. After setting up resolution it became little bit faster.

mplayer says: Failed to open VDPAU backend libvdpau_sunxi.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Hello. I've installed latest ubuntu-5.26 mate on beelink gt1 2G/32G very easy for first time.

Seems like it has not gpu driver, I also have low resolution. I've installed 5.24 firmvare and libmali. Nothing is changed.

What do I have to do? Do I have to use 5.24 ubuntu instead of 5.26?

 

Lmsensor does not see any sensors also(via sensors-detect). How to fix it?

 Upd: When I login via ssh I can see CPU Temp in invite message. How to watch it else.

 

Thanks.
