Support file: https://paste.armbian.com/enivosames I have connected an LCD touch display via HDMI and USB to the M5. The display shows messages during booting or shutdown but then "freezes" leaving the last few lines of the boot process displayed but does not show the console or anything else. What am I missing?

I've installed the latest Armbian Bookworm Cinnamon desktop image to the EMMC of the Banana Pi M5, but it does not display anything on the HDMI output after startup. Here's what happens when I start the system: - Starts loading the kernel (I can see the startup messages) - Shows the "Armbian" loading screen (with the spinning icon) - Switches back to the startup messages for a bit - Shows a black screen with a single "_" in the top left corner - After a few seconds my screen says that there is "No Signal" The Banana Pi still seems to be running, I can see the lights. Any idea what happens and how to fix it? FYI, this is how I installed it: - Flashed SD card with latest minimal armbian image - Boot from SD card - Mount USB with latest Armbian Bookworm Cinnamon desktop image on it - Install bpi-tools and copy new image to EMMC - Shutdown, remove SD card, and restart

Hello, BPi M5 freezes after a couple of hours running randomly. - use armbian Armbian 23.02 Bullseye ( 6.1.11) - same effects with Armbian Bookworm CLI kernels 6.1.x 6.2.x Now tried Sinovip Ubuntu (kernel 4.9.x ) aud it is running for days ! form their Homepage armbian from Sinovip page link also freezes... Why Armbian ( or Kernel 6.x ?) freezing . also found that USB power (for my data-USB-HDD) will be switched OFF during boot mostly . tried uhiubctl with permanant switch ON .. -> starts better - can ust USB-HDD in fstab ... but System freezes (include: USB no longer with power ) Is there any script to be change during boot or depends it to kernel ? hidden powersave options ? I want use it for a 24/7 running System (nextcloud) - any ideas ? g.l Fred

Hi! Recently I've tried Armbian 22.11 Jammy for my banana Pi M5. Initial setup without any error message. When I do the speaker-test but no sound output. Can I know how to add the sound card driver into the OS? Thanks

I had another distro and power button nicely shut down the system and it doesn't with armbian. I have read some things about it but I'm not even sure if they apply to this board or they are updated, about acpi events, logind and AR100, and I've read the official schematics of the board. It seems the button is connected to ADC pins. I installed acpid but acpi_listen reports nothing. But evtest does! root@bananapim5:~# evtest /dev/input/by-path/platform-adc_keys-event Input driver version is 1.0.1 Input device ID: bus 0x19 vendor 0x1 product 0x1 version 0x100 Input device name: "adc_keys" Supported events: Event type 0 (EV_SYN) Event type 1 (EV_KEY) Event code 259 (BTN_3) Properties: Testing ... (interrupt to exit) Event: time 1687334663.436476, type 1 (EV_KEY), code 259 (BTN_3), value 1 Event: time 1687334663.436476, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------ Event: time 1687334663.948482, type 1 (EV_KEY), code 259 (BTN_3), value 0 Event: time 1687334663.948482, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------ Is there a way to tell the system that this is event is an acpi event or a driver would be needed? I don't think I can make a real driver but I think I could get read the event from /dev/input/by-path/platform-adc_keys-event with python or something. If I can't I could always wrap evtest and make it do the reading. Thanks!

When I try to do "apt upgrade" on a brand new SD Card that has been just flashed I get a "kernel panic". This is the whole error: https://paste.debian.net/1283664 And this is the armbianmonitor -U log: https://paste.debian.net/1283662/ The board runs fine with debian with 4.9.x kernel supplied by manufacturer. Armbian is the second image I try because I need a newer kernel. I'll try to find one that is less new. Thank you for your support! EDIT: I tried again without wifi and it worked flawlessly. I can't make it crash with a wired connection. I used the same wifi plug with Debian and I never had an error but maybe there's a bug in the driver in this image or something... Oh! it's there in the kernel panic. [ 555.599414] Call trace: [ 555.601829] ODM_RA_TxRPT2Handle_8188E+0x110/0x390 [r8188eu] [ 555.607435] rtl8188eu_recv_tasklet+0x364/0x3a0 [r8188eu] [ 555.612782] tasklet_action_common.constprop.0+0x13c/0x150 It's indeed something with the wifi plug.

Could someone with a BPI-M5 confirm whether it has crypto extensions? Could you run `cryptsetup benchmark` or `openssl speed aes-128-cbc`? Thanks!

u-boot from Armbian_23.02.0-trunk_Bananapim5_sid_edge_6.2.0-rc3_minimal.img hangs if I try to boot with my USB hard disk connected.

Hi, Banana Pi M5 here. Really thanks so much by your generous work with Armbian software. I did a try with: Armbian 23.02.2 Jammy XFCE Armbian 23.02.2 Bullseye XFCE Armbian 22.11.3 Jammy XFCE Armbian 22.08.7 Jammy XFCE But only 22.08.7 loads desktop. The others versions does not load desktop after Armbian logo load screen, but I can login through SSH. I'm not proficiency with computers, I used Linux from many years ago but as an entry user, it's only a hobby, so excuse me if this problem is solved, but I don't find a solution in forum neither the Internet and I'm with these problems for months. Does anyone know how to solve the issue with screens? Other details: Power sources used with BPI-M5: - AC/DC Adaptor Model DSM-0530 (5V 3A) supplied with BPI-M5. - Original raspberry foundation AC adapter Model KSA-15E-051300HE (5.1V 3.0A) supplied with RPI-4B. SD cards: - SanDisk Ultra 64GB (never issues with RPI-4B neither Windows) - Kingston Canvas Select Plus 32GB (never issues with RPI-4B neither Windows) I'm trying Linux flavors because I like Ubuntu a lot for different applications, and I would like to use Kodi too. In Armbian 22.08.7 I thought that Kodi did not have GPU acceleration because options menus were really slow at 1080, but then I saw in the changelog that I was wrong trying v22.08.1 because Armbian included BPI-M5 support on Armbian 22.11.1, so I would like to give it a try. Thanks so much

Hi! Using the vanilla ARMBIAN image 23.02.2_Bananapim5_bullseye_current_6.1.11_minimal Enabling the provided uartA and uartC dtbos fails. Here is the output from the boot process, as captured via the Serial Debug interface: 238 bytes read in 3 ms (77.1 KiB/s) Applying kernel provided DT overlay meson-uartA.dtbo failed on fdt_overlay_apply(): FDT_ERR_NOTFOUND 238 bytes read in 3 ms (77.1 KiB/s) Applying kernel provided DT overlay meson-uartC.dtbo failed on fdt_overlay_apply(): FDT_ERR_BADMAGIC It seems that this image provides invalid dtbos, likely not properly built alongside the same kernel image. I'm happy to help debug this as I have a system at the ready. -
Hello, I know this is a forbidden question, I will adress specially to @chewitt and @Igor. Why I dare to do this? Because today, it is the fist time I managed to run Libreelec (LE) nighly https://test.libreelec.tv/11.0/Amlogic/bananapi-m5/ and have the somehow the same suffering with boot and so on and as I did not give up, I shot the last bug preventing LE to boot. I don't want to register in every forum for each pack , christian forgive me I will put the explanation here. The last image suffer from a missing link..in /flash as it is all momified in squashfs , this need extra skills. wget https://ftp.halifax.rwth-aachen.de/libreelec/LibreELEC-AMLGX.arm-11.0.1-bananapi-m5.img.gz gunzip LibreELEC-AMLGX.arm-11.0.1-bananapi-m5.img partx -a LibreELEC-AMLGX.arm-11.0.1-bananapi-m5.img losetup -a /dev/loop0 mount /dev/loop0p1 /media/LIBREELEC cp /media/LIBREELEC/SYSTEM . unsquashfs SYSTEM cd squashfs-root/flash #here is the missing killing link ln -s .. SYSTEM cd - mksquashfs squashfs-root/ -noappend -comp zstd -Xcompression-level 15 cp SYSTEM /media/LIBREELEC/ umount /dev/loop0p1 Then use gparted to wipe out the sdcard, and use dd dd if=LibreELEC-AMLGX.arm-11.0.1-bananapi-m5.img of=/dev/mmcblck1 bs=1M Boot and ENJOY! -
Armbian_22.08.7_Bananapim5_bullseye_edge_5.19.16_gnome_desktop Hello, I'm trying to rotate the desktop from landscape to portrait. Trying to do this in the display settings in the desktop does not work correctly as it only uses the top half of the screen. What does work is to rotate using xrandr: xrandr -o right I'm trying to do this automatically on start up so I have written a script to call from lightdm.conf The script: #!/bin/sh xrandr -o right exit 0 The parts in lightdm.conf [Seat:*] that I've edited: display-setup-script=/home/badger/screen.sh session-setup-script=/home/badger/screen.sh This works for the login screen, however it does not rotate the display. Any ideas how to do this? Thanks.

Hi there! I've installed Armbian 23.02.0 Jammy on my Banana Pi M5. And I'm using 3.5" display with HDMI interface. The screen has a native 480x320 resolution, but accept a range from 640x480 to 1920x1080. On resolutions over 800x480 is not readable, so I'm able to change resolution with the following line in /boot/armbianEnv.txt extraargs=video=HDMI-A-1:800x480M@87 fbcon=rotate:0 with lower resolutions 800x480 to 640x480 (60 to 87hz) the screen has an offset down of one character line so ther's a blank line up and I don't see login and shell input command down. Looking at 16:9 resolutions I see all the text with the minimum of 896x504 I don't know how to set overscan and screen offset up 1 character line with 800x480 o 720x480. Every help will be appreciated.

Hello, The mission: to change display resolution for "None-1" ('unknown display') - when no physical screen/display/monitor is attached. Machine: Banana Pi M5 (Bpi M5). I use it as a headless machine (without any monitor connected) and access it via a remote control/share screen application (such as: Teamviewer). The problem: the display is very small as the resolution is set to 720 X 576. I couldn't find any way or method to define/change the resolution in such a case. How can this be done? I'll appreciate any assistance you can provide. Thanks in advance! This is the information of the machine and Armbian version installed: BOARD=bananapim5 BOARD_NAME="Banana Pi M5/M2P" BOARDFAMILY=meson-sm1 BUILD_REPOSITORY_URL=https://github.com/armbian/build BUILD_REPOSITORY_COMMIT=b475b12 VERSION=22.11.4 LINUXFAMILY=meson64 ARCH=arm64 IMAGE_TYPE=stable BOARD_TYPE=conf INITRD_ARCH=arm64 KERNEL_IMAGE_TYPE=Image BRANCH=current -
On my Banana Pi M5 Armbian Jammy has a strange device name assignment. BPi-M5 has internal 16GB eMMC normally named mmcblk0 and microSD named mmcblk1. Normally it boots from SD and if you install an OS like Raspberry OS for BPi into eMMC, you're still able to boot from SD another OS because RaspiOS maps device correctly. But when Armbian (i.e. Jammy) is installed into eMMC it changes eMMC device to mmcblk1 and SD to mmcblk0, and It prevents SD to boot. And if the eMMC OS corrupts and doesn't boot the SBC bricks and TTL connection is needed to erase boot record. To change OS it's necessary a command to delete boot record and SD on mmblk1 will boot again: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmcblk1 bs=512 count=1 But the OS on eMMC has to boot and be in good working conditions. Also another guy with Orange Pi has noticd this behaviour: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/9987-sd-card-not-booting-but-works-on-another-emmc-boot-up/ It's important to change this behaviour and do it like RaspiOS.

This week I installed Armbian on three BananaPi M5s. The OS ran fine from SD card, but once installed to emmc (using armbian-config) the system booted with a message that the file space available was zero. In the case of one of the boards I found an 8GB .img file in /media/my userid/. I assumed it was a copy of the 8GB SD card, and I deleted it. The system is fine now. But in the case of the other two I have yet to determine what is consumbing all the file space. There are two empty directoris in /media (mmcboot and mmcroot). Any idea what is causing this and more importantly how to fix the two existing systems? Thanks, Paul

Hello, I got a BPIM5 with rtl8822cs board and a BPIM2+ with internal wifi chip for home automation. I started my project (vpn gateway) with the ubuntu server distribution on BPIM5. I had a lot of instability of the wifi driver (lost of station in AP mode) and and the board crashed every two, three days. I switches to ARMBIAN with the last Armbian 22.11.3 Bullseye with Linux 6.1.4-meson64. This software seems to work fine on M2+ and wifi is fine and stable. So I tried to move my M5 to the same level. The M5 boot on sd card, I move it on MMC memory and the board boot . Unfortunatly the wifi board (rtl8822cs sdio) is not recognized at boot . Does the driver and overlays file available somewhere for the M5 board and the WIFI sdio board ? Thanks for your help Gerard
