I found sun50i-h5-orangepi-zeroplus.dtb  in /boot/dtb-4.11.1-sun50iw2/allwinner, but I am not sure if it is being used

I tried to modify armbianEnv.txt and manually set fdtfile to sun50i-h5-orangepi-zeroplus.dtb

But after reboot I cannot connect to it through ssh, so I had to change it back.

3.X is 3.10.65?

Maybe an alternative: check /proc/device-tree for a mmc1 node.

I found /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/__symbols__/mmc1

It's content is below:

/soc/mmc@01c10000

and mmc1_pins_a

/soc/pinctrl@01c20800/mmc1@0

By the way, cpufreq is missing on ZeroPlus(running armbian). According to this , I execute   

zgrep CONFIG_REGULATOR_AXP20X /proc/config.gz

and it returns
 

CONFIG_REGULATOR_AXP20X=y

but still no cpufreq.

here's the result of lsmod

or you download one of the 'official' images and look there for .dtb files that need to be decompiled using dtc tool (device-tree-compiler package).

I do have official image downloaded, but its kernel is 3.X and I didn't find any dtb file in /boot.

It seems that dtb was introduced in linux 4.X(mainline) and fex was used in linux 3.x(legacy)?(I am new to linux)

I find that bin2fex can convert .bin back to .fex, however I am not sure where is the "script.bin"

I also downloaded the android img for zero plus, but I cannot open/extract it yet

I am using Orange Pi Zero Plus(http://www.orangepi.org/OrangePiZeroPlus/), but there's no armbian for it.

I download armbian for Orange Pi PC2(here) and it works! However, PC2 does not have on-board wifi, so my zero plus cannot find a wlan device.

 

The onboard wifi of zero plus is Realtek RTL8189FTV, and the driver source seems to be this

I compile it on my orange pi and add "modprobe mac80211" before "insmod", it is loaded but there is still no wlan0 device

So what should I do to enable wifi?
