@Sander de LeeuwI'm unable to recreate this issue. It boots right into the desktop as it should. Tried "Armbian_23.8.1_Khadas-vim3_bookworm_current_6.1.50_cinnamon_desktop.oowow" Not sure what would cause this for you.

That's a weird issue. I tested the latest images, but not sure if I tried an x11 desktop. I'll try the images you mentioned on my VIM3 and see what happens.

Try Kodi and see if that works. I use MPV for most, but some files it doesn't play well. sudo apt install kodi

I would advice to try with gnome (ubuntu-desktop) That uses wayland, so might give another result(better or not...). Also be sure to install the gpu and vpu drivers as mentioned on the download page(only Armbian Jammy)

Dag Bas. You need to use Armbian Jammy to use these ppa's. Is it Jammy? Another thing you can do is use MonkaBlyat his images what already have the drivers and other packages installed. https://monka.systemonachip.net nicod-armbian-gaming image might be the latest.

Both of you should leave logs. Is there any voltage on the ports? Might be dead ports. On my OPi5 a cap fell of when unpacking it. But all still works.

update, upgrade, reboot, install headers.

Hi Bas. Go ahead and post your solution. The latest images should have a few fixes but not sure if you'd notice it. Monka his old images had more preinstalled. Also nicod-armbian-gaming what official Armbian doesn't have. I also use the mini but in metal case. Works great for me. Using Monka his amazingfated gaming image. For GPU and VPU on official Armbian you need to do this. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:liujianfeng1994/panfork-mesa sudo add-apt-repository ppa:liujianfeng1994/rockchip-multimedia sudo apt update sudo apt dist-upgrade sudo apt install mali-g610-firmware rockchip-multimedia-config # In order to install additional packages with hardware acceleration support like chromium sudo apt install chromium-browser You can post in maintained Rockchip.

Best to use a Linux system to read the sd-card after writing the image. Then open the sd-card and do what's mentioned. Then you can boot the image. For adding GPU and VPU drivers in Jammy. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:liujianfeng1994/panfork-mesa sudo add-apt-repository ppa:liujianfeng1994/rockchip-multimedia sudo apt update sudo apt dist-upgrade sudo apt install mali-g610-firmware rockchip-multimedia-config To write the image to eMMC use sudo armbian-install It can boot mainline but its not realy usable. Last time I checked HDMI wasn't working. It will take a few months to year for mainline to mature.

New "How to build your own Armbian images" video :

Hi all. I made a new video on how to build Armbian images. These days you can use your ARM64 SBC to do this. For Windows users there's WSL2 you can use. Here my video about that. Greetings, NicoD

Indeed not Armbian related at all. Tho, I might have the answer for you in an Armbian related video.

What is the display it's default resolution? WIth displays other than 1080p/1440p/4k you can have problems. Example 1,366 × 768. Or with VGA to HDMI adapters there can be problems. Also I'd try another HDMI cable if using HDMI. What image are you using? For the plus you need to use these. https://xogium.performanceservers.nl/dl/orangepi5-plus/archive/ Debugging with UART would be helpful to see what's happening.

1. Download balerna Etcher and install it on a compatible machine(pc) 2. Write the image to sd-card 3. Boot sd-card, go to "sudo armbian-install" choose "install to eMMC, system on eMMC" or something like that. 4. See screenshot Save yourself some time and use Monka his images that have VPU and GPU pre-installed together with some other tools like nicod-armbian-gaming. https://monka.systemonachip.net/opi5-plus/

Why not buy an Armbian supported SBC? Most TV-Boxes are crap. Overheating and low-quality. For better quality you also pay a lot more. So then why not buy a good SBC? RK3399 ain't that expensive and has great IO. RK3588 is high end so cost more, but it's future proof. OrangePi5+ should be best value. I don't have it, so can't say much about it. NanoPi R6S/R6C isn't that expensive. The C has NVMe and USB3, and very fast CPU. If you want to use full sized HDD's then look at the Odroid HC4. It has the S905X3. As powerful as RPi4(when not OC) and 2 SATA for full sized HDDs. But no USB3 or other IO. It does have HDMI. RK3568 is also a SoC that has great IO and not too expensive. Not sure if there are Armbian supported boards with it. RK3566 less IO but still better than any RPi. I only had one ok TV-Box from a bunch. The Mecool KM6 with S905X4, but that doesn't have Armbian support. S905X3 should have better support. But you are never certain all hardware will work. TV-box manufactures ofter use different components for the same model TV box. So some people might have wifi working, but others don't.

I'll start with an old one. I'd like to see it in the backgrounds folder replacing the one now because the one used now isn't correct.

What desktop are you using? You can disable wifi on gnome and xfce. But it's simple to turn it on again. If there's no wifi device found xfce4 will not show anything about wifi. Try 'lshw -C network' and see if it's still there. Output of 'armbianmonitor -u' could help too.

You mean GPU acceleration? Show the output of "glxinfo -B" And would help if you'd do "armbianmonitor -u" and give the result. The ppa responsible for Panfork on RK3588 is from @amazingfate Might be something broke. I hope not.

Could you explain a bit more about your procedures? SSH is something basic that should just work. Are you using wifi or ethernet? Is the guest device on windows, linux or OSX? What software are you using? Can you try an image from the archive to see if it's better? https://armbian.hosthatch.com/archive/ Are you sure the OPi0 is booted? It might be power cycling if you've got a bad PSU. Best way to debug would be to use uart. You could also use your router its webpage to see if it's on, and what IP address is used. Maybe it's switching ip? To do that use "ip a" on linux or "ipconfig" on windows to see the default gateway. Then type that in a browser. Look on your router if there's a username and password. Many reasons I could think of, but without enough info there's no way to know. Good luck.

Hi all. I made a new video about Armbian on the Khadas VIM3. Both standard Armbian and Monka his Widevine and Gaming image. Here it is :

You can try images from the archive. https://xogium.performanceservers.nl/archive/orangepi3/archive/ Might be possible these images didn't build. @IgorIs there any reason for this? Or bug in build automation?

Hi all. Here my review video about the Mixtile Blade 3. An RK3588 ARM SBC with a special connector to make it possible to connect multiple of these boards in a cluster. But it can also be used well as desktop or server device. It has all the bells and whistle's an RK3588 can have like dual 2.5GbE, m-PCIe, NVMe, HDMI-out + 2 x DP on USB-C and HMDI-in, ... Here is my video : Greetings, NicoD

Should work. What fan is it and what pins did you use? You need to connect the ground to ground and vcc to 5V. So for the OPi4LTS it would be ground in pin3 from top left and vcc pin2 or pin1 from top left. Not sure if it's the same for OPi4 or OPi4B...

@Björn EiríkssonYou need to create a partition on the NVMe for it to work. I think that might be the issue.
