    kayman1021 got a reaction from balbes150 in ARMBIAN for Amlogic S905 and S905X (ver 5.44 =<)   
    Armbian_5.27_S9xxx_Ubuntu_xenial_3.14.29_mate_20170531.img.xz
    gxbb_p200_2G.dtb (only tried this)
     
    Audio works, wifi seems to work (at least lists nearby networks), wired ethernet works, and correctly discovered as gigabit device
     
    Resolution change does not work from mate gui, 720p and 0 Hz freq listed only, (i might try to modify xorg conf)
    Bluetooth does not lists adapters, devices.  During boot i saw it mentioned in the console.
     
    Both video test files play nicely and with sound windowed. Fullscreen and resizing video windows cause higher cpu usage. Video plays fluid until cpu reaches 100% on all cores, then video gets choppy, but still plays.
    Playing multiple video at once works.
     
    Successfully installed and started a game called Minetest. Default render is OpenGL, apart from extremely low framerates no graphical glitches noticed yet. I forgot to mention this in my previous post, performance is the same.
     
    Browsing in general works, 720p/1080p 30fps videos play well. This time i tried twitch too, 720p@30fps streams work nicely. (youtube and twitch gets choppy of course when put fullscreen)
    Speedtest internet connection test shows correct download and upload speeds (120 mbps)
     
     
    Thanks again

    Updated images Armbian 20170531. 
    Changes to scripts activate the multi-boot and run system from external media. In the new version of the scripts allow to start the system from any USB socket (if the is connected other USB media). Back support "nodm", now in the images is used in common with the main branch Armbian authorization system. If you want you can install the package "lightdm" in version Mate-that-be to have a graphical authentication when you log into the system (just don't forget together with the installation of lightdm, remove the nodm package, otherwise they will interfere with each other). Other changes see the description of changes to main branch Armbian (replacement browser on Chromium, etc.).

    Hello, it's my first time posting here. I have 2 Beelink MX III S905 devices with 2/16. I'm using mainly kszaq's LibreElec on them with his gxbb_p200_2G_1Gbit.dtb with great success so far.
     
    My elder parents still use an old core2quad desktop pc, my plan is to swap one of my boxes with it, around december.
     
    Last week i tried your "Armbian_5.27_S905_Ubuntu_xenial_4.12.0-next-20170516+_mate.img.xz" image, in first round with the included dtb-s. I booted it up from android update/backup menu with an USB3 flash drive. Some dtb worked, some not, if you're interested i can talk more about it.
     
    The most successul boot was with your "meson-gxbb-p200-lan.dtb" file. Wireless works about half times, wired ethernet works all the times, but it's settings are uneditable by gui. The box boots up in low resolution, in this resolution the second test files play nicely in windowed mode, in fullscreen it does not. After setting 1080p via gui, the test video does not start anymore.
     
    After Installing VLC from Synaptic package manager, i managed to play both files in windowed. I uploaded to the box some h264 coded 1080p 60fps videos, those played surprisingly well too in windowed. Fullscreen does not work so far, instant freezes, but the time counter continues. I monitored it in htop, i've seen full load on all cores, probably the resizing algorithm is at fault.
     
    Browsing works, i tried out chromium, with adblocker it is better than expected. Most videos play, fullscreen freezes videos.
     
    I noticed there is no sound and bluetooth so far, also the highest resolution available is 1080p from MATE gui.
     
    Now this is so far
    Thank you for your work so far. Let me know if i can help by testing, providing logs, and others. I have no uart acces so far, but i can operate via ssh if there is no screen.
     
    Cheers,
    kayman
