Orange Pi PC Plus power consumption increasing when halted [2]

[kentAVR]

As you known OrangePi PC PLUS with armbian (e.g. Armbian 22.05 Jammy) can't be fully off. (But Xunlong's Ubuntu 16 can be off ok)

 

I suggest change status of board from green "Supported" to yellow "SUITABLE FOR TESTING (WIP)".

Researching background? If you want to run closed source proprietary Linux, use Xunlong / vendor stuff. If you want to use quality and open source, well, there is a looooong way.

but can't do many other things. Its always a trade. Providing "Armbian wallpaper" on top of Xunlong proprietary software would be dirt cheap. 

 

This particular feature is not supported yet for many reasons. You can read articles on the topic https://linux-sunxi.org/AR100 and there are many forum topics on this https://forum.armbian.com/search/?q=AR100&quick=1

Working features have nothing to do with a support status. https://docs.armbian.com/#what-is-supported We annually invest thousands of hours just into stabilising release builds vs. nothing that rolling distros do (arch - manjaro). If you need that certain feature works, pay for development to anyone you prefer. Once done, send a patch to us, we will integrate it at our cost and will maintain it if not too expensive. But you can also send it directly to kernel.org.
