Is it a way to reduce the amount of reserved memory on sunxi64 devices? Trying to remove all useless for my case features (video/audio/wireless) to free up memory/resources for other tasks. The amount of total (413M) vs real (512M) memory is quite low: # grep -e Mem -e Cma /proc/meminfo MemTotal: 422416 kB MemFree: 49620 kB MemAvailable: 314396 kB CmaTotal: 0 kB CmaFree: 0 kB # dmesg | grep Memory: [ 0.000000] Memory: 407924K/524288K available (14144K kernel code, 1456K rwdata, 8700K rodata, 3072K init, 521K bss, 116364K reserved, 0K cma-reserved) # grep extraargs /boot/armbianEnv.txt extraargs=cma=0 sunxi_no_mali_mem_reserve sunxi_ve_mem_reserve=0 sunxi_g2d_mem_reserve=0 sunxi_fb_mem_reserve=16 # uname -a Linux pi160 6.6.65-current-sunxi64 #1 SMP Wed Dec 11 19:13:43 +04 2024 aarch64 GNU/Linux The tricks which works for `sunxi` (e.g. `orangepizero`) does not work for `sunxi64` boards: https://linux-sunxi.org/Kernel_arguments Attempt to specify that extraargs in /boot/armbianEnv.txt have no effect (also their defaults are absent in /boot/boot.cmd, while present in orangepizero's version), except for `cma=0` with is not directly related to total available memory. Custom kernel with `CONFIG_CMA=n` also changes nothing.

Good day everyone, I am running into some issue while trying to update packages on my Nano Pi Neo Plus 2, I am currently running Armbian 23.02.2 Buster with Linux 5.15.93-sunxi64 on the board. I am trying to update my packages with apt-update however the error I am receiving back is the following: E: The repository 'http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/armbian-apt buster Release' no longer has a Release file. N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default. N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details. Can someone help me out to fix it? Thanks in advance!

Tried installing Armbian_23.11.1_Nanopineoplus2_jammy_current_6.1.63.img and it is super slow during first boot process regardless of SD type. Localization craps out with "Failed to set time zone: Transport endpoint is not connected". I boot with wired Ethernet and when I get to a prompt I can ping outside locations. apt update produces "Hash Sum mismatch" Anyways, doing my part testing legacy boards, hahahaha

Hello, I am trying to use my NanoPi neo Plus 2 rev 1.2 board as KVM with help of (kvmd-armbian) and USB-HDMI capture card and USB-A to USB-A cable as OTG for emulation of Keyboard and mouse as HID. I discoverred that If I install "Armbian 23.02 Jammy with Kernel 5.15.y" like the install script from srepac/kvmd-armbian recommends, updated it and installed the srepac/kvmd-armbian piKVM, it installed properly and it is working BUT to my OTG USB HID connection to work I had to convert sun50i-h5-nanopi-neo-plus2.dtb to sun50i-h5-nanopi-neo-plus2.dts and in there find "dr_mode" and change it to peripheral (or otg) to get my HID OTG input to work which is working BUT my USB-HDMI Capture card (ID 534d:2109 MacroSilicon) is not working BECAUSE i discoverred that If i plug the capture card into my NanoPi neo Plus 2`s USB port (Closer to ethernet port because further from the ethernet port that is OTG as USB-A (OTG is not Micro-USB as many sources claims on the web)) I have USB 1.1 speeds but the card is detected as USB 2.0 (which it is). in lsusb there it is as 12M the Macrosilicon HDMI to USB capture card. If I list lshw the the USB hubs are shown and usbhost:7 is where under it is my USB Video HDMI Capture card and it shows 1.1 speed for the host but 2.0 speed for the card: No power issue, tried it with powered USB Hub and the result is same. No Hardware issue because The whole setup is working on different (outdated) Arch image from https://github.com/Yura80/os/releases (v2-hdmiusb-generic-aarch64-nanopi-neo2.img) I am connecting my system diagnosis information via armbianmonitor -u https://paste.armbian.com/acoxifotik I am uploaded my .dts file, I assuming this is somehow wrong bacuse it should not be possible to USB host worked on USB1.1 speed and registerring that the USB-HDMI capture card is USB2.0, and it is working on one Image and not working on other. My Question is What shoul I edit, install / uninstall / reinstall, to be able to properly use my NanoPi neo Plus 2 USB with USB2.0 speeds and use my USB-HDMI Capture card without any issue ???? Sincerely, thank you for help. sun50i-h5-nanopi-neo-plus2.dts
