NicoD 416 Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Armbianmonitor: http://ix.io/2sUH Hi all. I've recently received the Odroid N2+. Since nobody else started a topic about it, I'll be the one. All works fine with Armbian since not much hardware changes have been made vs the N2. Except for the CPU frequency. With the Odroid Ubuntu you can set it to 2.4Ghz for the big cores A73 as overclock (2208 stock)., and 2016Mhz for the A53 cores (1908 stock). With Armbian the max clocks are 2Ghz for all cores. Using Armbian Focal 4.9 legacy. I tried setting the higher values in config.ini. Also tried with the "meson64_odroidn2_plus.dtb" file from the Odroid Ubuntu. Doesn't boot with that. (What do I know ) Other changes are the RTC battery that's now on the board. The heatsink has changed a little. But it's still more than sufficient to keep it cool even when overclocked. USB3 still rather s*cks on it. Slow and a lot of issues with 2.4Ghz dongles(wifi/keyboard...). Too bad they didn't do anything about that. But that probably could have complicated compatibility with N2 images. Also feels a bit more sluggish than RK3399 on NVMe vs 128GB eMMC on the N2+. That's what fast I/O does. I'll try on USB3-NVMe later. Here some pictures. 1st pic the N2+ with its case open. 2nd picture the N2 left and the N2+ on the right. Cheers all. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
constantius 7 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 The N2 plus set to 2.4GHZ + 2.0GHZ works like a storm on the manufacturer's ubuntu firmware. I did not even try Armbian because there was no image that would support such frequencies. But it would be nice to support N2 +. I ordered fan. It works when you rich 65 degrees C 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
archetech 4 Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 tobetter's Gnome-wayland is the best build I've ever used out of my 2 SBC's. Rock64 and the N2+. Just got the N2+ last week and it's as good as folks are saying so far. So today I built Armbian Deb bullseye-dev for it and I thought you might like to know how it went. Flashed to sdcard booted first try. Same as the Ubu focal-dev last week. Both run great but the nic on the UBU broke as you know using armbian-config to upgrade it to nightly. The bullseye nic won't download during first upgrade faster than 1-10k p/s. Popped a wireless nic in , finished upgrade and rebooted. Solid blue/red lights no boot. Maybe they are related. Figured you could use the info. When I get free time I like to experiment with cutting edge builds of a few arm distro's. FYI I'm waiting for a patch set for mainline kernel on Manjaro hoping panfrost gets support working soon through mesa. At this time the tobetter libMali drivers seem the way to go until then. I will attempt an Armbian KDE build/install when panfrost/mesa/mainline is more advanced. Cheers, Archetech Update 8-13-20 Thanks to the dev team I can report that my N2+ is now officially OC'ed to 2100 vs 1800 Mhz and idles at 29 C. Lanefu built the latest Boot stuff and I hand edited the boot.ini to match the new dual use- n2 and plus one at github. Sadly we confirmed the nic can't receive well at all. Looking forward to more progess on this SBC. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I remember having the same issue with the N2 when it came out. Most packages got lost. When putting it to 100Mbit it dit work. With a patch it got fixed. I don't know if this problem is related. https://forum.odroid.com/viewtopic.php?t=34497 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'll take a look this weekend. First days with the N2+ I had to wait for software to come. Now it's all coming at the same time and I ain't got the time. At least I know what to do.

archetech 4 Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 Got the N2+ with OC and nic fixed with image from lanefu. His is current-nighly. Mine was dev. survived an update too. I may have caught some wip maybe. I'll now build kernel 5.8.1 for kicks and break it again. UPdate: 5.8.1 boots/runs fine so far. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NicoD 416 Posted August 20, 2020 Author Share Posted August 20, 2020 Here my Linux review of the Odroid N2+. It has a beastly CPU, but is lacking in I/O. Here's my video.

You used an "incomplete" nvme device that runs twice as slow as a normal M2 slot. For tests, you need to use devices with "full" M2 Nanopc T4 (Nanopi M4 uses only two lines out of 4). USB sucks compared to a full-fledged NVMe. I have a quality NVMe + Nanopc T4, NVMe speed is 3 times higher (> 900 MB/s) from the values that Nanopi M4 shows in your test. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It is the same test with USB3 to NVMe adapter on the USB3 of the M4V2. Not over the NVMe slot. Then it does +750MB/s. Also if I use a sata to USB3 adapter with sata SSD I get the same results. Slow on the N2+/N2. Near 400MB/s on the M4V2. Khadas VIM3 has the same issue, but is a bit better than N2/N2+. Changed it for clarity. That text file is what I use to note everything I need for my review. I share it here since some people rather read the text than to watch the video.

constantius 7 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Hello I think there is strange behawior in N2 board. http://ix.io/2xET In default cpu frequency script settings.: setenv max_freq_a73 "1800" htop and xfce4-cpu-monitor show 1900MHZ for A73 When i changed it to setenv max_freq_a73 "1908" there is 1800MHZ in htop and xfce-cpu-monitor. I have also N2+ board and there is everything ok 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ich777 0 Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Don't know if this is the right thread but my log gets spammed with: Sep 24 21:02:04 localhost systemd[1]: serial-getty@ttyS0.service: Service RestartSec=100ms expired, scheduling restart.

On most recent image this should be correct since max CPU speed in the user land was bumped to 2.4 https://github.com/armbian/build/commit/6c26c35344f283ba282a2f0adba05203440ae928#diff-e23e978e7f10e4dd5d02692593354d0b Edit /etc/default/cpufreqspeed and adjust. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
