Indeed, through the USB it does start. Is it possible to add the microSD unit to the dtb correctly? I have no experience with this issue. Actually, the microSD is reading it, but it can't find the second partition. Or, at least, I think so. Thank you

tediwildan Posted June 7, 2018 Posted June 7, 2018 Hi @balbes150, do you have any plan to make LUBUNTU distribution on amlogic s905x ?, I hope you will make it, it lightweight and it's good distribution, thank you. @balbes150

You can use a server image or Icewm and install ANY de shell on It.

The basic equipment provides me firm Khadas (VIM1 VIM2 etc). There are several variants of TV boxes Tronsmart Vega S95 (s905), S96 (s912) and s812. There are also many different noname s805\s905\s905x. All checks for S905X and S912 I spend on the equipment Khadas , part of the checks for s905\s912 I perform on Tronsmart. Check on the equipment noname I perform very rarely, on special request. Based on this, I can guarantee work on Khadas equipment.

Reddwarf Posted June 10, 2018 Posted June 10, 2018 Does any of the images have support for the Mali-T820MP3 GPU which is in the Beelink GT1 box? I'm considering to buy one....
MOHAMMAD HADI Posted June 10, 2018 Posted June 10, 2018 Hi @balbes150 can you include the wifi drivers and dvb drivers for kii pro ? The DVB drivers are maintained by afl1 here https://github.com/afl1/dvb_tv-aml He includes them in his fork of the kernel here https://github.com/afl1/linux-amlogic/tree/amlogic-3.14-nougat/drivers/amlogic/dvb-avl The wifi chipset is ampak ap6335 which combine Broadcom wifi chip and the Bluetooth chip Thanks
Tido Posted June 11, 2018 Posted June 11, 2018 To the users of KODI 17.6 - when I want to go fast through the menu, so I hold a navigation button (up/down) of the remote-control to repeat the action fast. Does your KODI 17.6 get stuck with the click'ing sound like click click click click click click click click click click click click and never stops until reboot ?

It's pulseaudio problem i saw this problem very often but if delet pulseaudio and alsa-utils problem was gone... But, without pulseaudio in linux(read as alsa) no easy way to use sound mixing(just one sound from one source in same time) 1

Fozzy Posted June 11, 2018 Posted June 11, 2018 I have a problem with using snap (snapd) package installing on any kernel - whether it is 3x or 4x. I can't install nextcloud through snap. It gets me errors, someone said it can be due to settings of the kernel. Installing nextcloud through snap on Ubuntu desktop 18.04 is OK. Is this a problem in armbian itself?

Does your KODI 17.6 get stuck with the click'ing sound like click click click click click click click click click click click click and never stops until reboot ? Yes, there is such a problem. This is due to the peculiarities of the KODI (in the version that I collect with the acceleration of HW). I hope the situation will improve with the support output in the "4.1 x" hardware decoding kernel for Amlogic. Before that, you will have to use the recipe described by talrash (remove conflicting packages). On 6/11/2018 at 11:13 PM, Fozzy said: Installing nextcloud through snap on Ubuntu desktop 18.04 is OK. Is this a problem in armbian itself? In the /boot directory there is a kernel config with which it is built, you can compare what options you need to add and build your own version of the kernel. All sources are freely available. https://github.com/150balbes/Amlogic_s905-kernel/tree/khadas-3.14 https://github.com/snapcore/sample-kernels/tree/stable-3.14.y/kernel/configs/snappy

Saurabh Posted June 14, 2018 Posted June 14, 2018 Hi, I just changed the user password from command line using sudo passwd and I also tried sudo passwd user (as user is the username I put it there ). when I rebooted it , I entered the new password , system accepted it but it loop back again to the login screen asking for password. Any help in that ???

The term "GPU usage" is very broad and it's not clear what you mean by that.

napo7 Posted June 15, 2018 Posted June 15, 2018 Well, I've tested, and no luck ;) With 5.44 it doesn't boot. It stays on the splash screen "X96 mini". Is it possible to use a newer kernel with 5.37 image ?
