Hello, I have't used my old Cubietruck for years but would like to use it again in a project. I downloaded the new Armbian version: Armbian_community_25.2.0-trunk.124_Cubietruck_noble_current_6.6.62_xfce_desktop.img and installed it. There is console display just fine through HDMI, but not graphical display. There seems to be some trouble before as in this discussion: I downloaded this image: https://github.com/IGNNE/cubietruck-armbian-unofficial/releases/ and it seems to work. But when it updates itself, the graphics is gone again. So - is there some old driver mess back again or what? Is there any cure available for this diseace?

Hello everybody, I'm new in armbian and Cubietruck. It looks to me that bluetooth is installed but if I scan for devices no devices will be found. I have the impression that something is wrong with the driver installation. I used the file image "Armbian_community_24.11.0-trunk.130_Cubietruck_noble_current_6.6.44_xfce_desktop.img.xz" for installation. Any help would be appreciated. Best regards Albrecht

Hello, I've got some problems with a Cubietruck. First thing to state is that the com-port apparently has died. It was connected via a USB-converter 3,3v and worked flawlessly for a long time. I replaced it with a new one but no go. In the beginning no problem, I could use SSH. Second thing is that the hard disk became erroneous. I bought a bigger model but no boot. I thought that the UUID-entry in /etc/fstab caused this and changed it via tune2fs to the old one, but still no boot. Thus I could no longer use SSH! And I cannot mount the old harddisk, it's to erroneous! Third thing is that I tried with a new image, and the cubie seems to finally boot. But it's lacking to get a valid ip-address via dhcp. Still no SSH! What to do? I'd like to login only once to edit /etc/fstab and set a fixed ip. But I cannot get in the system! The micro-SD-card seems to be unmountable, apparently there's something else at the beginning. I only see the card but no partitions! Anyone an idea? BR Peter

Hello, how can i update my Cubitruck with armbian Buster to Bookworm? apt dist-upgrade did it not. Thank you

I've had two Cubietrucks running almost flawlessly for about 10 years on Armbian/Buster and previous versions. I recently decided to install Bookworm using Armbian_23.8.1_Cubietruck_bookworm_current_6.1.47.img.xz. On this I encountered several problems, whose causes I never fully uncovered, but got over them. One of these problems was that neither manual setup nor the use of armbian-config allowed for a lasting configuration of the German keyboard layout, although "Personal Setting" says the opposite (see att. image No.2). It's a pain in the neck, really. All I could filter out is a commandline message that's only visible a second. See the last screenshot with four lines saying I spent a long time figuring out what this means. I simply re-installed the relevant packages via "apt-get" hoping this would help, but there was no obvious change. At some stage of my manifold attempts I suddeny noticed that the keyboard had changed to German on the CT_1. However, I couldn't recall what had caused the change. So I approached my CT_2 and now I'm stuck again with the same issue. ๐ I wonder if others have experienced the same and were more competent in finding a way out. If so, please let me in on your secrets. ๐

Hello fellow Armbian folk, I've been a happy armbian user for many years. Recently, I've been trying to upgrade to bookworm from bullseye on my cubietruck, however have been hampered by Hash Sum mismatch errors from multiple armbian mirrors. I have followed all instructions on clearing the /var/lib/apt/files, apt clean, but nothing seems to help. I've tried multiple armbian mirrors with no luck. So now I'm seeking some community support.

I have a working Armbian SD card and I used it for some time made some changes in the system (disabled some services, installed some libraries and made new services etc...). I use this SD card with Cubieboard-3 (Cubietruck). And I have a backup of the entire root filesystem from that SD card. Now I've got second Cubieboard-3 device and I need a second SD card to boot the second device into the same OS with actual changes. The good approach would be to backup only CHANGES in some manner that would allow me to install fresh armbian to new SD card and them roll my changes to it. But instead, i started a stupid approach of doing this: just copied the entire filesystem to backup and to a second SD card. Then I inserted the SD card to my Ubuntu laptop, ran Gparted and made the partition bootable. This had no happy end: device didnt booted from the new SD card. As I understand, i must flash U-Boot into it somehow. Maybe reading this https://linux-sunxi.org/U-Boot would help me, but I have no idea is it the good path to go (clone U-Boot, install cross-compiler, compule U-Boot, flash the U-Boot). Is there any easier way? Maybe pre-compiled U-Boot for the cortex-a7 and some instructions for flashing it? All this seems interesting, because i always wanted to dive into some low-level linux stuff, but the time waste too much for now.

Cubietruck-like board. Omnima A20 micro PC Image for Cubietruck, Ethernet connection does not work, but spdif optical works. Ethernet connection does not work solution in the topic "No IP address for Ethernet connection (Cubietruck-like board)" Image for Cubieboard2, Ethernet connection works, but then spdif optical does not work, only analog audio. I need an Ethernet connection and spdif optical, how can I enable it in the Cubieboard2 image? Thanks!

Hello everyone, I have a Cubietruck w/ Armbian which I installed a long time ago (~4 years I think) and I haven't touched it since. I have an AdGuard server running on it and not much else. Recently, I wanted to install something else and I was hit with a lot of errors when I run `sudo apt-get update` Ign:1 http://httpredir.debian.org/debian stretch InRelease Ign:2 http://httpredir.debian.org/debian stretch-updates InRelease Ign:3 http://httpredir.debian.org/debian stretch-backports InRelease Err:4 http://httpredir.debian.org/debian stretch Release 404 Not Found [IP: 146.75.2.132 80] Err:5 http://httpredir.debian.org/debian stretch-updates Release 404 Not Found [IP: 146.75.2.132 80] Err:6 http://httpredir.debian.org/debian stretch-backports Release 404 Not Found [IP: 146.75.2.132 80] Ign:7 http://archive.debian.org/debian jessie InRelease Hit:8 http://archive.debian.org/debian jessie Release Get:9 http://security.debian.org/debian-security stable-security/updates InRelease [48.0 kB] Ign:10 http://security.debian.org stretch/updates InRelease Err:11 http://security.debian.org stretch/updates Release 404 Not Found [IP: 151.101.154.132 80] Err:12 http://archive.debian.org/debian jessie Release.gpg The following signatures were invalid: EXPKEYSIG 7638D0442B90D010 Debian Archive Automatic Signing Key (8/jessie) <ftpmaster@debian.org> EXPKEYSIG CBF8D6FD518E17E1 Jessie Stable Release Key <debian-release@lists.debian.org> 75DDC3C4A499F1A18CB5F3C8CBF8D6FD518E17E1 The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 8B48AD6246925553 ...and obviously, nothing is updated.

Since the CT (the A20 one, not the CT+) has been moved to CSC status, I've build a 22.04/jammy minimal image for my CT, and I figured I might as well share it with you. The only changes to "pure" armbian are some power management debug options in the kernel. https://github.com/IGNNE/cubietruck-armbian-unofficial/releases/tag/22.04-2022-09-09 SHA256 of zip file: 9d0028a9f5c6258a739f52f447bf4400d20fec52358f5006ae8a26b602acdfc0

After running the armbian-install program and selecting option "1 'Boot from SD - system on SATA, USB or NVMe'" the program transfers the contents of the SD card to the drive (SATA or NVMe). And it works. The problem occurs after booting - a message appears about the device being unable to mount /media/mmcboot . And indeed - the contents of /media/mmcboot and /boot are empty. The problem turns out to be the contents of the /etc/fstab file generated on the SATA/NVMe drive. The mount point /media/mmcboot has a only UUID value, but the text "UUID=" is missing before the value. After manually adding it, everything starts fine. If someone could lean in and correct the error in the armbian-install script.. that would be nice. The topic is definitely about scripts for rockpi 4b/4se and cubieboard. (tested on armbian v21 for cubietruck and armbian v23 for rockpi 4b/4se).

Hi, Firstly I wanted to say thanks for providing builds for the Cubietruck, however unsupported they are. Current build is working after I fixed up the repository and the wired network configuration - learnt a fair amount in one afternoon! Secondly, is it possible using armbian-config to switch to stable repository and a stable kernel and reasonably expect it to still work? Many thanks,

Hi. Armbian 21.02.1 / 5.15.74-sunxi (22.08.6 SMP) / Debian 11.5 is working flawlessly on my cubietruck for several days, and then just hangs. I've studied the armbian-hardware-monitor.log, systemlog, run a 2-minute periodic cron to watch the temperature, and even added a serial comsole in an attempt to find out what might be the cause. I have not seen any weird indications in these logs. Temperature stays between 37 and 45 degrees. When the system hangs, there are no error messages on the consoles or via the serial comm. Pings are unresponded then, and magic sysrq won't work then. Armbian is run on a sata harddisk, there are some harddisks attached via an USB hub too but not involved in system-critical tasks. Network is LAN-based. Can someone recommend what else than desribed above I could do or check to analyze what's going on and leads to the hangup. Thanks in advance.
