[A20 SATA write speed improvement]

Hi, could you indicate a step by step procedure for installing this kernel? I would love to try it!

Either grab the build script and build your own kernel package (https://github.com/armbian/build) or simply wait until the next version bump and do a standard apt upgrade to get the fresh packages.

1. How to update opi3 with new builds? apt dist-upgrade?

2. How to turn off red light on op3 board?

1. Not sure if even necessary but check armbian-config to switch to nightly builds. Be aware that this can brick your board at any time.

2. I do not have an OPi3, though an OnePlus which is also shipped with H6 SoC. Try this:

 

#!/bin/bash
echo "heartbeat" > /sys/devices/platform/leds/leds/orangepi:red:pwr/trigger
sleep 2
echo "none" > /sys/devices/platform/leds/leds/orangepi:red:pwr/trigger

For unknown reason the board does not accept if I write none directly into the trigger, so I wrote this small script.

[new user - orange pi 3, i don't know where i can partecipate]

Hey there and welcome.

 

Allwinner H6 SoC based boards like the OrangePi 3 are currently not end-user supported as the mainline support is still under development. Xulong may sell nice boards for pretty cheap but their software support is very poor (and sometimes they come with defects by design, see http://linux-sunxi.org/H6#Errata).

You get is what you pay for.

If you need a board running GPIO nicely and is supported either buy a different board or wait until this one is stable enough to be officially supported.

[Orangepi 3 h6 allwiner chip]

If it works for you you are lucky.

 

OrangePi 3 also based on Allwinner H6 SoC, so most likely affected as well.

[Orange Pi ONE Plus won't boot]

Yes, 5.0.7 image is working. Do not upgrade the kernel though or you will run into the same issue.

I do not have a USB-TTL dongle.

Get one. Highly recommended for any SBC user and they are dirt cheap.

[Orange Pi ONE Plus won't boot]

Might be a known issue: 

tl;dr: try an older nightly, 5.0.7 kernel working for me.

[Orange Pi ONE Plus won't boot]

Thank you for taking a look into!

[Orange Pi ONE Plus won't boot]

Hey there,

I just build a fresh dev image for the OrangePi One Plus (Stretch, console only, 5.0.x megous sources, latest commit was https://github.com/armbian/build/commit/783c2d0e25ff4542876943cfef6a7ac2921d1262) and unfortunately it seems to be unbootable.

I put verbosity to 7 to get some more information rather than being stuck at "Starting kernel..." and this is what came up:

@martinayotte I know you are running on 5.1-RCx locally right now but do you have any chance to verify this behavior?

 

Edit:  Just tried the same with Armbian_5.82.190423_Orangepioneplus_Debian_stretch_dev_5.0.7 and works fine. 

 

Edit2: Using APT to upgrade to the latest packages and reboot working as well. Though ethernet is not detected any longer...this is getting weird...

 

[Adding Debian buster]

The wget thing might not be our fault. It seems like there is some trouble around the package. TBH I am not sure how to interpret the information though: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/wget

[H6 Famous Reboot problem]

sunxi64-dev is currently based on megous orangepi-5.0 kernel branch and gets frequently upstream patches merged.  So if this patch makes it into mainline kernel it will become available in this branch as well.

[H6 Famous Reboot problem]

Awesome news. And everyone can still be an old school guy using interfaces file 

[OrangePi 3]

If you don't care about poor performance and bugs but just want a precompiled image go for the ones Xulung provides themselves.

 

If you want better performance and don't care about bugs you have to build your own Armbian experimental image. Howto here: 

 

 

tl;dr: There is no best or even good image out there.

 

 

http://linux-sunxi.org/Linux_mainlining_effort

 

[Orange pi One Plus Kernel 4.19]

Probably because the 3.10.65 based images from Xulong supplied for H6 wasting 75% of the CPU in heat...

Anyway, did you try different types thermally conductive paste? 

[Dynamic loading of Overlays in 5.0.y]

Awesome.

 

I'll give the OPi1+ a shot on dev as well soon.

[Dynamic loading of Overlays in 5.0.y]

4.20 has been archvied https://github.com/armbian/build/releases/tag/sunxi-4.20 so I assume 5.0 can be pushed directly to master. And if it breaks does not matter as it is dev.

[Orange pi One Plus Kernel 4.19]

The older 1+ on 4.17.14 has now an uptime of about 200 days without any cooling whatsoever. Also idle most times but even under load (no GPU load) it throttles at about 75°C as stated. 

 

Heatsink can be even counterproductive as it stores the heat when no proper air flow is guaranteed.

 

I would just give it a try without and monitor the temperatures over a time. You can for example use armbianmonitor -m and pipe the output into a file.

[Orange pi One Plus Kernel 4.19]

Actually 4.18.0-rc7 already did AFAIR 

[Orange pi One Plus Kernel 4.19]

These are the results for the board running 4.20

If I understand you correctly never revisions of the board can indeed run on 1,8GHz ( overclocking )?

In other words if you acquire a board from " Shenzhen Xunlong Software CO.,Limited " now it should be fine.

Yes and no. The H6 SoC is designed to run on 1.8 GHz. In the early stage of (software-)development the CPU has been capped at 1.5GHz for safety reasons. So with the current kernel it runs as it should. No idea if it is capable for overclocking.

As far I can read stuff GPU and HDMI are being enhanced at this stage, or am I wrong?

I don't know. @martinayotte?

Hi - can one do a "  cpufreq-info " please?

Although this board is still in WIP,  I was just wondering if it is stable for ovpn ( stretch server/headless ) purposes running kernel >= 4.20 ?

Also in terms of speed, can it be " overclocked " similar idea like the H5 (NEO2-LTS v1.1) and last but not least wonder about its speeds, eg: " openssl speed -evp aes-128-cbc "

TiA!

It is German but you should get the idea.

I switched the governor to performance beforehand.

 

tl;dr: Running great with Stretch and OpenVPN.

 

 

Edit: Oops, I did these tests on the wrong board which still running on kernel 4.17.14. Other board is capable to run at 1.8GHz, so the results should be even better.

What about a heat sink for cpu/gpu?

Will it happily run without one when all cores will be clocked to 1,8Ghz and running a desktop environment (gpu)?

Probably not. It may run though, however throttles itself down at about 75°C. CPU only, as I use it as server without GUI.

If you hardly need it you have to build it on your own. May take a while until it is listed.

[Xulong Linux 4.9 images for H6]

Orangepi released some new images für SBCs based on the H6 SoC  shipped with 4.9 Linux kernel.

Did anyone test these yet and got some first impressions?

OrangePi Plus 2 is shipped with H3 SoC and not with H6 AFAIK?
