Hi. I want to install RTL8188fu on this orange pi pc but I have no luck. Bus 003 Device 005: ID 0bda:f179 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8188FTV 802.11b/g/n 1T1R 2.4G WLAN Adapter I'm using this repository https://github.com/kelebek333/rtl8188fu , but....: orangepipc:~:# sudo dkms install ./rtl8188fu Creating symlink /var/lib/dkms/rtl8188fu/1.0/source -> /usr/src/rtl8188fu-1.0 Error!

I can't set up gpio-poweroff feature described here. I tried made overlays from here and here - no effect. U-boot boots with no errors. Then i am tried to edit DT (armbian-config > System > Dtc), - manually add node at pinctrl@1c20800: and node at "/": where 0 21 0 means "PA 21 drive_active_high", i assume. So "Reference to non-existent node or label "pio"" error is occured. Then I use gpios = <0x0e 0x00 0x15 0x00>; for PA21 (like it used in leds node for pwr_led on PA10 by changing 0x0a to 0x15 (PA21)). No errors occured but it still not work. Also pwr_off_pins labels in Dtc was repaced by phandle = <0x7f>; and pinctrl-0 = <0x7f>; after compilation. PA21 is free pin. How to make it work? Welcome message:

I've been reading on the forums on the possibility of having multiple OSes inside 1 EMMC for the Opi PC+. From what I understand, inside a typical EMMC installation, it has 3 partitions: 1) Bootloader partition, which runs first and starts the main partition 2) main partition, contains OS files 3) unallocated free space suppose I have 2 devices: 1. Armbian Jammy Server 2. Armbian Jammy Desktop Now I want to make another device that has 2 OS partitions, like so: 1) Bootloader 2) 1st OS main partition, 3) 2nd OS main partition, 4) unallocated free space I'm thinking of using DD to extract the image out from 1 OS and dd it back into the other (booting the devices using another OS from SD card). I'm guess taking out the desktop image and put it inside the server device... If this is done, how do I make it so that the 2nd OS is bootable? It can be like this: 1) Select which OS to boot on startup ala GRUB 2) Boot into 1st OS, then boot into 2nd OS from 1st OS. I want to make this as a way to make the 2nd OS robust. 2nd OS is the work OS, 1st OS is diagnostics OS. The idea is to make the 1st OS able to fsck/remote rsync the 2nd OS OS in case the 2nd OS corrupts/needs updates.

Hi, I am a Grade 12 STEM Student, and right now I need someone's help on our Investigatory Project. Can someone help me on how to connect screen saver (turns off automatically when snoozing) and turns on when PIR Sensor detected something so that It saves power when not used. And I also need to know how do I connect it to the Smart TV because our project is basically an Interactive Board (The thing that you can find around malls which you can use to know specific locations around the mall.) What I have: 1. Orange Pi 2. PIR Sensor 3. Smart TV What I need: 1. A step-by-step procedure on how to do it. 2. What commands/codes to input (Right now, we are using Python language but you can suggest other languages that we can use.)

I have an Orange Pi PC Plus (Armbian Bullseye CLI) that I'm using as a NUT server connecting to a Cyberpower UPS. Every 30 minutes the driver stops working and upon further investigation, this looks to be a USB connection issue. Is there some power-saving mode that would cause this or any other known issue? Thanks!

Hi. I was following a tutorial on how to set up my Orange pi PC. I installed this image: RetrOrangePi_v4.3_Armbian_5.97_Orangepipc_Ubuntu_bionic_dev_5.2.14_desktop.img. So I installed it. Everything ran fine and I can navigate the menus. The device I have is very similar to this one, it's a v1.3: https://imgur.com/FN1sBZF The problem is that, when I try to connect to the device using Filezilla it displays the following message: https://imgur.com/1WZI885 Yes the port I used is 22. Password: "PI" or "pi" I only have one ethernet cable, I plug that into the orange pi and I connect my PC using wifi. I've done this before with my Playstation 3, only difference is that, the PS3 is connected to my wifi and the pc is using the ethernet cable. I don't know. I hope somebody can help me. Thank you!.

Hi!, I just bought my orangepi pc and also installed Armbian desktop. I also bought a wifi dongle with rtl8188gu chip. Is there any steps on how to use this to connect to my network?

Hi, Im using orangepi pc with armbian jammy. On download section there is only 2 choices, CLI and Desktop. Is there a custom desktop version where most (or if possible all) applications are not installed? It would take too long is I uninstall it one by one. I think I only need browser and terminal.

Hello, everybody. I managed to succefully pu to work my recently acquired Orange Pi PC, using Ubuntu server. Now, I'm trying to configure my new Orange Pi 2g IOT as well. However, I just found out it doesn't have a monitor out, and I don't know how to access it via USB. So I had an idea: The 2g IOT has TX, RX, GND connections, and so does my Pi PC... Can anybody tell me How I can use the Pi PC to run linux commands on th 2g IOT? I don't have a Usb-ttl-uart connector, and it's veru hard to get one on my region... Thnak you very much.

Hi All! Can anyone help me about rotate de ArmBian logo in startup splash screen? I am working with LCD Display and I want change the logo rotation to portrait mode. Orange Pi PC and Armbian_22.05.1_Orangepipc_focal_current_5.15.43_xfce_desktop.img.xz. Display - 7" HDMI Display 1024 x 600

Hey there! I'm trying to create an image with Debian Bullseye using Debos and Armbian. My board is an Orange Pi PC H3. I am following this step guide to generate the image, but I'm having problems to read serial. The tutorial that I follow was created for Orange Pi Zero +2 H5, so I change the architecture for armhf. When I boot the image I don't have any file named "armbianEnv.txt". This file should be already there? Or I have to create it? Some idea about what can be the problem? Just for test I create this file with some parameters that I found, but still not working.

Hello, I'm using a orangepi pc with armbian and I want to boot (automatically if possible) from the usb flash drive where I flashed batoceda. Is it possible? And if so, would you have step by step? Thanks a lot.

I have a solar application for PC, so my goal is to reduce the power consumption in idle as much as possible. How would one go about this with the latest armbian distros?

After a clean install of 22.11.1, I edit /boot/armbianEnv.txt to add: overlay_prefix=sun8i overlays=uart3 i2c0 spi-spidev param_spidev_spi_bus=0 and reboot. After the reboot I list the /dev files of interest and there is/are no "spi*" entries: pi@orangepipc:~$ ls /dev/i2c* /dev/spi* ls: cannot access '/dev/spi*': No such file or directory /dev/i2c-0 /dev/i2c-1 pi@orangepipc:~$ Not sure if it makes any difference but I only have power, HDMI, and RJ45 connected to the board at this time, and nothing connected to the GPIO pins. Below are the states of two files, one from which I got the BOARDFAMILY, and the other into which I placed that value as "overlay_prefix", and the "overlays" and "param_spidev_spi_bus" values. Any and all help appreciated.

Hello! I try to connect to OrangePiPC by serial console. I tried using UART1 (add overlay & switch console to ttyS1), UART3 (ttyS3) and ttyS0 (debug port). But always I can see output (with kernel or ) but on my host computer (ubuntu 20.04) I see login prompt and can't enter anything. I tried change speed but not login. Even when I stop serial-tty@ serivice and start minicom without luck. Can you help me?

Hello! I try use UPort 1150 on my OrangePIPC+ board, but got error misiing firmware. After lookup I check that this files was missed, so I copy from RaspberryPi4 board (with Armbian 22.04) moxa folder & ti_3150.fw, ti_5052.fw. Then after reboot all work ok. So, is this that I missed in configuration or this is a bug? Regards, Alex

Hi: I use orange pi pc to build a little chromium kiosk for showing some static information(like temperature). most things are fine. but there is a electronic scroll bar which is not running smooth. I check my current environment (armbian 22.08 with ubuntu 22.04) that I am running xorg with fbdev driver. I wonder if there is other things I can try for the hardware? I search the forum and I found there is "lima" driver, but I don't know if I am using it or not. I can see "lima" is loaded via "lsmod" but am I using it currently? I hope the orange pi pc can do better with newer driver. if not, what's the next armbian pi I should buy to get better chromium experience? thanks a lot for help!!

I had to reapply u-boot image. So, I did it by armbian-config and later by "dd" command. In both situations this is failing (please see u-boot messages printed by serial). I was restoring the image (I have backup images of my SD card) and trying again. What may be the problem? I had linux-u-boot-orangepi*-current 22.08.6 installed.
