I'm trying run some Games Emulatores, but all are slow EmuELEC-H3.arm-4.0-opipc.img.gz Lakka-Allwinner.orangepi_pc.arm-2.3.1.img.gz RetrOrangePi_4.2_FULL_Armbian_5.59_Orangepipc_Debian_jessie_default_3.4.113_desktop.7z Using EmuELEC-H3, this error apper on console: So for those who want to run an emulator, they may encounter this problem. Maybe it’s the fact that you’re using the OrangePiPC DTB

Hi I got this Tvbox with H3 processor, I managed to boot using the image of the Orangepi PC. DISPLAY: OK ETHERNET: OK WIFI: NO BLUETOOTH: NO RAM: 1GB (8Gbit) Used image: Armbian_21.02.3_Orangepipc_buster_current_5.10.21.img.xz Basically the same hardware found in:

@jernej, yes 4 chips. I didn't really understand this calculation. had understood that it could be used: 4 chips of 512 or 8 chips of 256 , to get 2G I ask this because I will exchange the equipment with the seller.

Datasheet of memory.

If I managed to enable at least 2gb it would be good. I am sending the images for reference

Hi I got this Tvbox with H3 processor, I managed to boot using the image of the Orangepi PC. However it still needs some improvements. DISPLAY: OK ETHERNET: OK WIFI: NO BLUETOOTH: NO RAM: DETECTED ONLY 1GB of 4GB ?! WAY ?!? Used image: Armbian_21.02.3_Orangepipc_buster_current_5.10.21.img.xz How do I configure the total ram? In Datasheet say 2GB in the CPU area, and 2GB in the GPU area. Totalizing 4GB, or am I wrong? https://wiki.friendlyarm.com/wiki/images/4/4b/Allwinner_H3_Datasheet_V1.2.pdf Specs: # uname -a Linux localhost 4.4.55 #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Aug 31 19:03:00 CST 2020 armv7l # cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 model name : ARMv7 Processor rev 5 (v7l) BogoMIPS : 22.85 Features : half thumb fastmult vfp edsp neon vfpv3 tls vfpv4 idiva idivt vfpd32 lpae CPU implementer : 0x41 CPU architecture: 7 CPU variant : 0x0 CPU part : 0xc07 CPU revision : 5 Hardware : sun8iw7 Revision : 0000 Serial : 146078910318102c08d3 # lsmod Module Size Used by ssv6x5x 514320 0 uvcvideo 75168 0 videobuf2_vmalloc 6058 1 uvcvideo videobuf2_memops 2009 1 videobuf2_vmalloc videobuf2_v4l2 21951 1 uvcvideo videobuf2_core 24478 2 uvcvideo,videobuf2_v4l2 algif_skcipher 9956 0 algif_rng 2109 0 algif_hash 4917 0 af_alg 8309 3 algif_skcipher,algif_rng,algif_hash sunxi_ir_rx 7805 0 sunxi_keyboard 5179 0 mali 311880 36 fivm 7878 0 cat /proc/meminfo MemTotal: 4194304 kB MemFree: 247608 kB MemAvailable: 449840 kB Buffers: 6672 kB Cached: 389972 kB

Sorry I had not noticed the topic that is referring to boards supported.

Hi @Werner, thanks. Sorry, as a beginner did not know this new policy. I came to share the discovery, and see if I got help from the community to understand how it could make this adjustment. In Datasheet speaks 2GB in the CPU area, and 2GB in the GPU area. Totalizing 4GB, or am I wrong?

Hey I read several topics but I didn't find that the script was specific, maybe an alert talking about compatibility before running helps !! people make mistakes!

I able to boot using some HACK !

Hi, I'm trying to make my MX S805 (m201_512m) work with the "armbian" but without much success The boot of the kernel seems to be working, because when I insert a usb, the message appears. PS: This I'm tracking through the serial port. I have nothing on the HDMI output (using adapter) Neither any new IP in the router's dhcp table. Another (strange) thing I can not do is stop BOOT, I have tried ENTER, SPACE, CTRL + C, it seems the RX line is not working on. I have another android TV (Sunxi A20) and the serial adapter it works normally with it.
