Joel Mercedes Posted February 19, 2021 Posted February 19, 2021 @robertoenr I have installed Armbian 20.10 Focal 5.9.7 in my OTT TV BOX X96 mini 1 + 8GB and it works well, only the wifi that does not work, I want to know if there is a more advanced kernel to install it on these equipment. Equipment information: - Amlogic S905W chipset * Quad Core 1.2GHz 64bit Cortex-A53 Mali-450 * 1 GiB of DDR3 memory - 8 GiB of eMMC flash - 10/100Mbit Ethernet - HDMI output up to 4K30P - Model: X96 mini. I would like to install one such as: Armbian 21.xx Focal 5.10.x, if some one knows please let me know. 1

SteeMan Posted February 19, 2021 Posted February 19, 2021 @Joel Mercedes First I want to draw your attention to the following information so that your expectations are properly set: https://forum.armbian.com/topic/16976-status-of-armbian-on-tv-boxes-please-read-first Second, what build did you install and where did you download it from? I am not aware of a build for amlogic TV boxes that has kernel 5.9.7 in it.

Hi @Joel Mercedes the last image you can install for Amlogic devices is the 20.10 with kernel 5.9.0 created by @balbes150 WIFI generally does not work on this cheap devices. You must use ethernet or a 1$ wifi-usb dongle. Anyway: What image did you install to get the kernel 5.9.7? Or did you update the kernel over 5.9.0? What DTB are you using?
