I noticed the same on a fresh image on the Station P1.
So the fix from above was :
sudo apt-key del C99B11DEB97541F0 && sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/githubcli.list
But
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/githubcli.list
I think this should be sufficient since it ain't doing the apt-key thing.
There was a small mistake in the original source. github-cli.list vs githubcli.list -

Firefly Station M3 (rk3588s)
Nice to hear. Good work. I haven't tried RK3588 desktop so I don't know how it is.
I'm waiting on my Rock5, but no news yet. I'll be happy to have it. -

Can you explain the limitations of the HC4's when using as a desktop replacement?
No USB3. Only 1 USB2 port.
God enough for tv box tasks and gaming. I wouldn't use it for desktop, but it can do it.
Only RK3399 is near perfect for desktop. -
My favorite desktop SoC is by far the RK3399. It can do all you want. Good youtube playback at 1080p. (even 1440p when overclocked to 1.5Ghz/2Ghz)
Good for browsing and rock stable.
I've been using it for a few years now and never had much troubles.
Now I still use the PineBook Pro as desktop laptop for on the road to watch movies, do some video editing and browsing.
If you need something faster the Odroid N2+ can do it too. But it's not as stable and has problems with its USB3 ports. But it's the fastest well supported board.
My favorite makers are FriendlyElec(nanopi M4), Hardkernel (Odroid N2+), Radxa (Rock4B).
Others I would avoid. Maybe the OPi4LTS is ok. But I've got no experience with it. I'm not buying OPi boards anymore. They don't care about software for their boards, they only want to sell boards.
I've never tried write protected Armbian. So that you'll have to test yourself. Let us know how it goes.
No idea why you would want a board without SPI. Doesn't make it more unsafe. And wouldn't stop you to use write protected OS to my (limited) knowledge.
I've never used S905X3 for desktop. I do have 2 Odroid HC4's. They are amazing for NAS. Great for gaming with emuElec. For desktop itself it's a bit underpowered for me.
Now more powerful SoCs are released. I've got the Khadas VIM4 with 8-cores. Great board, but lacking in software. Also the RK3588 is being released now, but that'll take a while before it's as good as the RK3399 in software.
Good luck. -
Hi guys.
I'm the maintainer for the Khadas VIM3.
There are 2 small issue's with the Armbian images for VIM3, and also for VIM2.
armbianmonitor -u
http://ix.io/46L9
First off, the VIM3 has all its cores clocked to 1.5Ghz by default.
I created a Jira for that a while ago. https://armbian.atlassian.net/browse/AR-1094My simple fix is in /etc/default/cpufrequtils
MAX_SPEED=15xxxxxxx → MAX_SPEED=2400000
But I have no idea how/where to adjust this so it is correct for all VIM3 images.
Then for VIM2 and VIM3 (maybe VIM3L and VIM1 too) the HDMI audio isn't working as it should.
https://armbian.atlassian.net/browse/AR-1095
I once was able to make it work. But I can't remember how. So the device is enabled at boot, but not directed to be used by pulseaudio.
Thank you. -
Here all other Armbian related videos.
And lots of review videos on my channel. So subscribe if you're interested.
Greetings, NicoD -
Yes. Panfrost GPU driver is enabled on all images for M4V2/RK3399.
-
What image are you using? There are many ways to install this. I'd advice to start with a fresh, current jammy and build retroarch yourself.
https://docs.libretro.com/development/retroarch/compilation/ubuntu/
The problem is that RetroArch doesn't provide arm64 cores.
There are gaming images for arm64 boards that include these cores. Good luck.

Hi all.
Werner has made a video where he presents himself and talks about how he got into using Linux, SBCs and Armbian.
A very interesting video.
This is a serie of video's. Igor and Lanefu also have made a video like that.
You can find the other video's here.
https://www.armbian.com/authors/
If you're willing to make a video like this. I am willing to edit and help out.
Greetings, NicoD -
Try using mpv instead.
VLC is not accelerated with no images.
And provide the needed info. I know nothing here with this question. What board, what kernel, what video file, ... -
This might be a fix. I haven't had the time to test and implement.

Hello everybody.
Today the Khadas VIM4 is being released.
The VIM4 uses the Amlogic A311D2 SoC. This is a new SoC with 8-cores of which 4 x A53 @ 2Ghz + 4 x A73 @ 2.2Ghz.
The board comes with 8GB LPDDR4X and an eMMC of 32GB.
If you want to learn more about this new board, then watch my review video about it here.Greetings, NicoD

Hi all.
I made a new video where I explain all the basics of working with Armbian xfce4.
This for the absolute beginners that come from Windows. But a more advanced user can maybe also learn a few things from it.
Here is the video.Greetings,

Hi all.
In my latest video I compare the Odroids HC4 and N2+, RPi400, NanoPi M4 and Radxa Zero with each other.
I make a "NicoD opinion benchmark" where I give my thought on what each board is best for. And of course benchmarks...Greetings, NicoD

For some people it is wanted/needed to change things. And for the devs it is a must.
It's just expected of people who do change things, that they know what they are doing. -

What ELSE do you have for sale @NicoD?!
A lot. Just out of my head what I'm willing to part with.
What I can miss. KM6 TVbox, OrangePi3, RPiZeroW, Tinker Board, Rock64, Atomic Pi.
Only for a good price the Khadas VIM2 and Jetson Nano.
RPi2B very maybe. I love that one too much, so only +50 euro for that one.
I'll have to take a lok at what else I've got. -

Hi all.
In my latest video I make an Armbian Build server out of my old x86 PC. And I set up an extra Odroid HC4 as NAS with the old hard drives from my PC.
I hope you'll like it, greetings.NicoD

Where does the system actually set the CPUs speed if not in the boot.ini file?
Should be something like this.
# max cpu frequency in MHz unit if test "${variant}" = "n2_plus"; then setenv fdtfile meson-g12b-odroid-n2-plus.dtb setenv max_freq_a73 "2208" setenv max_freq_a53 "1908" else setenv fdtfile meson-g12b-odroid-n2.dtb setenv max_freq_a73 "1800" setenv max_freq_a53 "1896" fi
If you create an image, it only does the used disk space. Not the unused. So that's why I'm saying to decrease the partition size and then make the backup image. That is how Armbian images start. But there is a tool that expands the partition to full disk size at first boot.
And check a new image to see how everything is done to see if it's n2 or n2+. I'm not sure where the "${variant}" is declared.
I don't think that will be done on your image since older than that script. -
I moved this to the correct place.
14 часов назад, Dams2000 сказал:can you tell me the step by step procedure to launch this version in good condition for the Ugoos am6B plus please ?
I have not used Armbian on tv-box in a long time. My guess.
1. Write image to sd-card.
2. Mount sd-card in a Linux environment.
3. Change the armbianEnv.txt (or another Env file in the /boot directory) to point towards the correct dtb file for your device.
(4) Might be needed that you press a boot button to boot it. That might be in the 2.5mm audio connector. Use a toothpick to press it and power the board.
Read around in the TV-box club for more info. -

1) When I use my Buster image with 5.6 Kernel from my Odroid-N2 and plug it into the Odroid-n2+, the result is that the device starts, but has no working Ethernet. When I try to ifconfig eth0 up it never finishes. Again: Can somebody advise me what to do about that?
Where did you find that image? Seems old.
These days there's a script that checks if it's the N2 or N2+ and then loads the correct devicetree.
But with old images (usually in config.txt) you had to manually select the correct device.
My advice would be to use a more recent image.
21 hours ago, Ruediger said:2) Maybe not N2 specific, but I never had that on my Banana Pi or Odroid C2: When I make a backup of my 64GB MicroSD card using DD, Etcher cant write the image back: The MicroSD card is too small by a few MB. Even a new card of the same model is reported as too small. Can somebody explain this to me? How can I strip the image of empty space to get it writable onto the card?
You need to decrease the size of your sd partition to do this correct.
Safest way to do this is using another image on another sd/eMMC. Then use gparted to resize the partition so there's almost no free space. Then create the backup image.
Then set the patition size again to original.
The same when you burn the image to sd-card. Resize the partition with gparted.
