Werner got a reaction from NicoD in Unable to make Panfrost work on H6
Yeah sure if I can piece togeher what I have done.
Base was a current (Edit: actually was dev but installed current kernel/headers/dtb over it since I gave up on dev) image with Focal. Built mesa from sources:https://panfrost.freedesktop.org/building-panfrost-mesa.html
Use devfreq to set the gpu governour to userspace and fix the gpu frequency either to highest if you have GOOD cooling or something lower. @Igor thinks DVFS is not stable enough yet.
Proper cooling seems necessary as it may not like thermal trottling.

Werner reacted to Heisath in Need your help - what else beside Etcher
I meant create an issue for displaying a general warning before writing. Like "WARNING: This will erase all existing data on drive X".
The detection can probably not be made entirely perfect & foolproof

Seems also be the same issue on 5.6. As soon as you log in and start doing stuff it freezes the board

I say we go and change the recommendation to USBImager and leave Etcher there as "also usable, but includes spyware"

Yes. You need a serial connection and temporal network connection to setup AP armbian-config way.

Werner reacted to Igor in OpiOne: /dev/zram0 = /var/log full while apt update
I was fixed - how are your values in /etc/systemd/journald.conf

Werner reacted to guidol in OpiOne: /dev/zram0 = /var/log full while apt update
There I only have the default-file-entrys:
I did now edit my /usr/lib/armbian/armbian-zram-config and inserted the lines from the fix at the right place (which were missing).
The fix inserted/corrected the SystemMaxUse=20M in /etc/systemd/journald.conf
Before a reboot I did enter a "journalctl --vacuum-size=5M"
And after the reboot I have:

Werner reacted to Igor in Armbian v20.05 (Kagu) Planning Thread
For those who couldn't made it, meeting logs: https://freenode.irclog.whitequark.org/armbian/2020-04-04 Meeting summary goes directly into Jira issues/bugs and the actual work.
Thank you all for attending the meeting!

Werner reacted to martinayotte in Switching SUNXI-DEV to 5.6.y
I've done a fresh "git clone" to get rid of the issue.
I'm now doing a new a new "tour of my Allwinner garden" with 5.6.1, and then I will do some commits ...

Werner reacted to Igor in Armbian v20.05 (Kagu) Planning Thread
Our next release date is coming and perhaps its time to discuss what to push into 20.05, what not, resolve open questions and distract from most used keyword for past few weeks.
@Myy @TonyMac32 @balbes150 @piter75 @sfx2000 @ebin-dev @count-doku @chwe @ning @lanefu @gprovost @aprayoga @5kft
@JMCC @Werner @karabek @martinayotte @tkaiser @selfbg @Siraj ... to name just a few which might find this move useful
I am preparing a meeting on IRC in Saturday at 1 pm GMT - this is reasonable good timing for US / EU folks. The idea behind this meeting is that (ideally) everyone, who will be present, quickly present (in alphabetical nick order) what they are working (not working on anything is equally legit) on followed by a discussion. If a feature, project or a fix can be pushed into this release. Plus answer and decide on other open questions. You are welcome to expand this with a PR/change document directly. This way we could - on a long run - improve all project parameters.
As my example - what I am currently working and IMHO could be implemented by 20.05:
- setting up auto test facility, software and hardware which is a great support tool for making releases. It is already helping me finding bugs.
- merging mainstream kernel config in the non-hardware areas could go into this release
- firmware split up with @ning
... more Jira's during a week.
Ideally it would be that prior to this meeting you write into Jira what you are working and join discussion about your task/project/idea with a link - who does not have access shall PM to @lanefu or @Igor - reviewing and prioritising goes faster and better with Jira.
Welcome!

Werner reacted to Icenowy in A try on utilizing H6 PCIe with "Virtualization"
`SATA controller [0106]: ASMedia Technology Inc. ASM1062 Serial ATA Controller [1b21:0612]` is tested to work.

Werner reacted to Icenowy in A try on utilizing H6 PCIe with "Virtualization"
As we know, the PCIe on H6 is buggy, which doesn't offer linear address, and Linux cannot support such kind of configuration.
However, the Cortex-A53 cores used by H6 supports virtualization, which can be used to change the order of the address space.
Recently, I tried to make use of virtualization to provide linear mapping of PCIe, and I succeed in making an Intel 6205 wireless card working.
The hypervisor code is at https://github.com/Icenowy/aw-el2-barebone . It's intended to start before U-Boot, and located at 0x40010000.
A U-Boot fork that is patched to load the hypervisor is at https://github.com/Icenowy/u-boot/tree/h6-load-hyp , and a kernel that utilizes the wrapped PCIe (and patched to reserve memory for the hypervisor) is at https://github.com/Icenowy/linux/tree/h6-pcie-wrapped .
In order to let the hypervisor start before U-Boot, BL31 needs to be built with `PRELOADED_BL33_BASE=0x40010000` in make parameter -- this will change the EL2 entrypoint to the hypervisor. Mainline ATF from ARM works.
Contributions to the hypervisor is welcomed.
(In addition, abusing virtualization in such way will prevent us from using KVM. But I think more people will want PCIe instead of KVM, right?)

I just received this little guy:

Connect one or multiple 18650 cells to it and it will act as UPS. Working very well.

Werner reacted to Tido in Need your help - what else beside Etcher
I installed it and let everything as it is. Two things I don't like:
1a. To start flashing or writing, the button says in german: Ausschreiben (terrible translation), just 'Schreiben' would be much better
1b. When it finished it says. Done. Picture (Bild) written successfully instead of 'Abbild'. I wonder if a human did the translation.
2. It doesn't remember the window size. It is good it starts small, but I have 24" and I like to see the path-to-the-folder I am about to write.
It lists the right devices: I attached an USB-Stick and an SDcard and only these two I was able to choose
And finally, it wrote the Kubuntu 20.04 2,3Gb within 1 min and this inlcudes the writing-verification to my understanding 2300/60 = 38MB/s
Aside from being fast, Zero-Load on the CPU
In opposite to Etcher, it is not ejected at the end of the process. Well, if USBImager ensures proper termination of the process it shouldn't harm if the user unplugs it before ejecting it.

Werner reacted to Quang-vip in Issues with Ubuntu desktop on Orange Pi Prime
Actually, I managed to get it to work, thanks to this thread and the author (It only applies to the H5 SoC from what I know..)
https://forum.armbian.com/topic/9043-rtl8723bs-bluetooth/
And yes, I understand that Armbian is still being developed and not in anyway be perfect yet.
But still, I really appreciate everyone's work to make this incredible OS for SBCs.
Once again, thank you for helping me out You really saved my life

Werner reacted to Technicavolous in Wrong power supply. Board does not start
You have wiped out your input voltage circuit. To be brutally sincere you've probably destroyed the board.
That being said, take a look at the schematics -
http://wiki.espressobin.net/tiki-index.php?page=Schematics
select your model ...
scroll down to page 14 and look at U9 - the regulator ... if all you did was wipe that out, you could replace it. You will need hot air soldering equipment and skills.
HOWEVER, it's my experience that when over voltage is applied to a regulator, many times it fails by passing the power rather than blocking it. There is a good chance that 19 volts was applied to many 1.8 and 3.3 v circuits. In that case your board is toast.
Mark it up to expensive education ... we've all done it. Most of us have plugged 12v into 5v boards that have no regulation. In that case the board is also toast.
