hardvk0 Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 I have updated the armbian kernel from version 20.11.3 to version 20.11.6 and eth0 only works by forcing the switch to 100FD. If I leave it on automatic, the port negotiates at 1000FD but loses most packets. Any suggestion?
Werner Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 Providing logs with armbianmonitor -u helps with troubleshooting and significantly raises chances that issue gets addressed.
Werner Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 Thanks. Nothing fancy from a quick look. As a temporary fix you can use armbian-config to revert to an older kernel, perhaps the version you were using before if it is still available and then freeze firmware updates.
hardvk0 Posted January 4, 2021 Author Posted January 4, 2021 Thanks, it is a new installation, I had the problem of the disabled hdmi port. When I saw today's update, I installed it and everything just got worse. I have tried the buster and bullseye images with the same result. I will try to prove.
Werner Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 cubietruck seems not to be affected as well so there might not be a general issue with A20 SoC but with this particular board
Solution hardvk0 Posted January 4, 2021 Author Solution Posted January 4, 2021 Downgraded to version 5.8.16 and everything seems to work fine for me, hdmi & eth0, then i freeze firmware updates. (Sorry for my google english)

Green Daddy Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 Hi, I had the same effect - eth0 only worked by forcing the switch to 100FD after upgrading to 5.10.4 from 5.9.14. If I leave it on automatic, the port negotiates at 1000FD but loses most packets. No connection possible with a TP Link Switch. It seemed to be a little more stable connecting to a Fritzbox - I could login using ssh after connecting the Pi to that. After forcing the Fritzbox to 100FD I could login using SSH and downgrade to 5.9.14 (which I had before). 5.9.14 confirmed to be stable for ETH0. For HDMI I don't know. Hope that helps. KR Thorsten

hardvk0 Posted January 6, 2021 Author Posted January 6, 2021 This worked, the port negotiates fine in autoconfig at 1000FD with no packet loss.

Great! Is this fix part of the 20.11.7 builds and current armbian repositories kernel / dtb packages? I bought an SD Card to test which should arrive tomorrow and want to know if I need to compile my own kernel package or if it is supposed work "out of the box" with current repositories... Sorry if this is a dumb question but I am not familiar with github and build cycles and stuff - also happy to learn how I could determine this by myself... Many thanks!

I think it should. 6 minutes ago, Green Daddy said: Sorry if this is a dumb question but I am not familiar with github and build cycles and stuff - also happy to learn how I could determine this by myself... Those hotfixes are triggered manually so there is no relation on github. Regular way: https://docs.armbian.com/Process_Release-Model/ 1
