Rock-5c vendor builds are good. Current is good except for audio: Armbian_26.5.1_Rock-5c_resolute_vendor_6.1.115_gnome_desktop Boot from SD card - okay Connect via ssh - okay Ethernet iperf3 - okay USB2 ports - okay USB3 ports - okay Reboot - okay Shutdown - okay HDMI video - okay HDMI audio - okay Headphone jack audio - okay Armbian_26.5.1_Rock-5c_resolute_vendor_6.1.115_minimal Boot from SD card - okay Connect via ssh - okay Ethernet iperf3 - okay USB2 ports - okay USB3 ports - okay Reboot - okay Shutdown - okay HDMI video - okay Armbian_26.5.1_Rock-5c_resolute_current_6.18.33_gnome_desktop Boot from SD card - okay Connect via ssh - okay Ethernet iperf3 - okay USB2 ports - okay USB3 ports - okay Reboot - okay Shutdown - okay HDMI video - okay HDMI audio - FAILED Headphone jack audio - FAILED Bluetooth audio - FAILED

This device is not yet fully compatible with the mainline Linux kernel. Realtek USB 2.5GbE adapters, in particular, are known to have issues when used over USB 3 on these devices. The vendor-provided kernel reportedly offers better tuning for these adapters, though it is still not entirely flawless.

Try this. It worked on radxa-e54c with Cinnamon. rm -rf ~/.local/share/cinnamon && sudo reboot

That's great. Thanks for sharing.

The rock-5b SPI uBoot compile config suggested by Werner is for the mainline uBoot and it didn't work with the uBoot on rock-5c although I thought it might. I tried to build you an unsupported image using the uBoot config from rock-5b, but unfortunately the build failed. Rock 5b is heavily hacked for uBoot to use a hybrid mainline uBoot with bits of Rockchip stuff. The function pre_config_uboot_target__rock5b_patch_uboot_dtsi_for_ums() won't work because the rock-5c dtsi doesn't have the same stuff, but this won't matter for vendor build. I will spend a bit of time trying to get it to build with all of the relevant rock-5b conf mods, but that is about the limit of what I can do because I don't have an NVME hat or a SPI flash module or the lite version of the radxa rock 5c or experience with the SPI subsystem. The NVME hat may not have the same device tree overlay as the built in NVME on the rock-5a. There is no reason to believe that the rock-5a-spi-nor-flash device tree overlay for the rock-5a will work correctly for the rock-5c. However you seem to indicate that the SPI module and NVME is working/accessible using the vendor kernel. This does not mean that they will work with uBoot. This may be relevant https://forum.armbian.com/topic/47090-radxa-rock5c-pentahat-and-emmc Building Armbian yourself is pretty easy if you want to experiment with current and edge mainline kernels. https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_Overview/

I will take a look, but I have no experience with SPI on this board. I may have to try some copy pasta.

I did a quick compile and tested Rock 5C vendor minimal. The test was successful. Boot now works and WiFi aic8800 works. Thank you @amazingfate

I am using the latest code. Thanks for your response and for checking later.

How does this relate to Armbian build for vendor kernel? Does it need to be patched or will move by some workflow?

I compiled Armbian Rock-5c bookworm vendor 6.1.99 minimal. WiFi driver extension radxa-aic8800.sh breaks Rock 5C vendor (kernel 6.1.99) boot. I compiled without the extension to confirm. The radxa-aic8800 driver has recently been modified in the download source. I modified radxa-aic8800.sh to download the previous driver version "3.0+git20240327.3561b08f-2" and this does not fix the issue. Ref: Jira AR-2603 Logs attached. Any fix or insight would be good. @amazingfate is this something that you might have ideas about? armbian-hardware-monitor.log rock5c-debug.log

Nice video Werner!

Thanks Werner, I initially misread it. Corrected it already.

What Armbian image are you using and how did you burn it? Have you tried another image? Does the board work with one of the suppliers images?
