    I've just installed it, and first impression is, it isn't much better than before.
    It's unstable. Runs at 1.5Ghz, but seems a lot slower than others at the same speed. 1.8Ghz isn't possible anymore.
    Temperatures are of course better now.

    I believe the temperature isn't showing right. It shows it's constantly at 55°C at idle, and above 60°C when in use. But the heatsink isn't even hot to the touch. It feels very cool. This can't be right.
    Must be something wrong with the temperature sensor settings.

    No auto-resize either. I'll try updating to bionic.

    Last one. Armbian in Space. It's not a high quality render. If you like it, then I can make a high quality one. I'm sick of waiting +1 hour for the render to finish.
    I could darken the background a bit more, or maybe choose a better one. But you can get the idea behind it.
    If you choose one, then I can make a very high quality 4k render of it.
    You can make a choice of which background, and also rounded off or straight lines.
    Thank you all. Greetings.

    What did you try yet?
    Did you connect the camera? Did it show up?
    You can check this with : ls -ltrh /dev/video*
    If it shows up, download mjpg_streamer. Set it up, and ready.
    Here how to set up mjpg_streamer: https://www.acmesystems.it/video_streaming

    In addition to @NicoD's response, there is also a snap package for mjpg-streamer. So, once you get an Ubuntu Bionic running on your board, all you have to do is:
    $ sudo apt update $ sudo apt install snapd $ sudo service snapd start $ sudo snap install mjpg-streamer $ sudo snap connect mjpg-streamer:camera $ snap run mjpg-streamer You can get some more instructions with "snap info mjpg-streamer"

    I have watched this thread and decided to check the status of the mainline kernel 5.0 for the H6 with the @Icenowy 's work on top of it.
    I can say it works really nice (tested on Orange Pi 3 H6):
    * HDMI
    * DVFS
    * Gbps / ethernet
     
    I have prepared a blindly DT that should work on Opi 3 H6: https://github.com/avafinger/orangepi-h6-ubuntu-base-minimal/tree/master/dts
     @Igor , Basically fetch the mainline kernel 5, apply your patch set on top and add/modify my DT.
     
    I have tried to add i2c and spi but it did not work as i expected.
    I had something like this:
    For the i2c
            i2c0: i2c@5002000 {             compatible = "allwinner,sun6i-a31-i2c";             reg = <0x05002000 0x400>;             interrupts = <GIC_SPI 4 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;             clocks = <&ccu CLK_BUS_I2C0>;             resets = <&ccu RST_BUS_I2C0>;             status = "disabled";             #address-cells = <1>;             #size-cells = <0>;         };         i2c1: i2c@5002400 {             compatible = "allwinner,sun6i-a31-i2c";             reg = <0x05002400 0x400>;             interrupts = <GIC_SPI 5 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;             clocks = <&ccu CLK_BUS_I2C1>;             resets = <&ccu RST_BUS_I2C1>;             status = "disabled";             #address-cells = <1>;             #size-cells = <0>;         };             i2c0_pins: i2c0_pins {                 pins = "PH5", "PH6";                 function = "i2c0";             };             i2c1_pins: i2c1_pins {                 pins = "PD25", "PD26";                 function = "i2c1";             }; Default i2c in use (PMIC and possibly HDMI):

    For the SPI0:

    Regarding the reboot command, i applied the latest ATF power fix (as suggested by @jernej but reboot works exactly as shutdown -h now

    A good read.
    I've learned something. I didn't know the ethernet and usb share the same line. The thing is even crappier than I thought.
    I would also have complained (a lot) about their ancient ddr2 RAM chips. I find this the biggest flaw in the design of the 3B+. The SoC is so bottlenecked by this that even at OC of 1.5Ghz, it performs very badly on ram dependend tasks. 

    The thing is just one collection of design flaws. I don't know what was going on while they were designing the 3B/3B+. They were clearly not concentrating on their work.
    Either they don't have good testers, or they just don't listen to their concerns. All these issues should have been fixed after the first tests.

    I still love my 2B, and still use it often. That's got advantages towards other sbc's(power efficient, no throttling, much more stable, ...) I still hope they're going to do better with the next one. But for now I'm going to use my RK3399's and dream of the Odroid N2.
    Great job, thanks.
