I Don't Know if this will work but please try this :)

if it doesn't help, then i'm out of ideas for now...

rk3318-box_1.5Ghz_SDCARD_v1a_ST_sdhr104.dts 68.61 kB · 2 downloads

 

Thank you for your response.

 

Dont know what y did ,  I was unable to create DTB.
 

dtc -I dts -O dtb -f rk3318-box_1.5Ghz_SDCARD_v1a_ST_sdhr104.dts -o rk3318-box_1.5Ghz_SDCARD_v1a_ST_sdhr104.dtb

Error: rk3318-box_1.5Ghz_SDCARD_v1a_ST_sdhr104.dts:2894.3-2895.1 syntax error
FATAL ERROR: Unable to parse input tree

 

I download my rk3318-box_1.3Ghz_SDCARD_v2_ST_sdhr104.dts file , looks like the same error. Will fix dts file.

 

rk3318-box_1.3Ghz_SDCARD_v2_ST_sdhr104.dts  fixed.

Is it possible to delete post , can't find a way to do it.

all i did was edit the raw dts file in notepad++ but the 1.5GHz is broken but it is just a bad setting in the dts file.

how exactly do you edit the dts file in windows?

should i use nano in ubuntu-wslg?

i used this in ubuntu wslg

dtc -I dts -O dtb -f rk3318-box_1.5Ghz_SDCARD_v1b_ST_sdhr104.dts -o rk3318-box_1.5Ghz_SDCARD_v1b_ST_sdhr104.dtb

and the thing threw warnings about missing phandle references and it compiled as you can see...

it appears that the format syntax is as follows:

 

the start of the settings uses a curled bracket without a semicolon 

and the end of that part has 2 line endings

There was a bug in the DTS file like y say. Have fixed it and uploaded new DTS , DTB was fine.

Just download from old post DTS file if y need it.

 

Yes there often are warnings when converting from DTS to DTB.

 

I use editors inn Linux , like mousepad or nano +++ , think y can use any editor (Windows /Linux) and save inn txt format.

 

As Jock sad , its impossible for the rk3318/28 tvbox to get 1,8 v on sdcard needed for sd uhs SDR104 mode , but some sdcard can work in this mode on 3,3v.

I now run Samsung EVO sdcard in this mode.

what about using the emmc on the device instead of the sd card?

Update!

 

Images on first page have been updated to kernel 5.14.13 ;)

 

does it fix the issue with dvi to hdmi on devices that don't support 1920x1080?

in multitool the monitor worked but after flashing the emmc and rebooting the monitor went into power saving mode.

the monitor is an lg L196WTQ-BF

in android it was locking to 1280x1024

Hi all,
So I continue my feedback on a TvBox MX10 with rk3328 I tried adding overlays to have 1.4GHz and 1.5GHz but none will have allowed to use these max values in armbian-config via CPU governor (I still have 1.3GHz as the max value). Pity..
Another thing I always try via armbian-config the docker install, it did not finish correctly and I had to be able to install docker use the method described in https://alexbacher.fr/unixlinux/installer-docker-debian/

I tried to install docker-chromium-armhf in order to be able to have chromium with DRM rights (amazon, netflix, ...) because no DRM lib in ARM64 ..

https://github.com/HenningThiemann/docker-chromium-armhf

So I was able to start Chromium-armhf but unfortunately once I arrived in my Amazon primevideo account, streaming is not allowed due to lack of DRM rights
I also attempted the construction of https://github.com/gort818/qtwebflix it works but again and again this problem of DRM lib .. If someone has found a solution I am well interested..

@jockI see you updated but, do we have to reflash ?

Have a nice day..

Images on first page have been updated to kernel 5.14.13 ;)

 

Is there any way to just "update" to it, without re-flashing the eMMC? I assume that apt-get update && upgrade won't work for kernels in the images not supported by Armbian.

@MX10.AC2N @curse That's true, the only way to update currently is to start from scratch and the reason is exactly the one hiphotesis by @curse is right: since the whole thing is not yet into mainline armbian, upgrading via apt is not possible. Even worse: upgrading via apt will install official armbian packages, and it would just break the installation because it would remove the existing dtbs.

 

I'm going to add the .deb packages in the first page along the pristine images for manual upgrade, in the hope it will not break existing installations ^_^

I have used sudo apt-mark hold <linux-package-name>  , on kernel .

 

sudo apt-mark hold linux-image-current-rockchip64

sudo apt-mark hold linux-dtb-current-rockchip64

sudo apt-mark hold linux-u-boot-current-rk3318-box

 

I then can run apt update and apt upgrade not updating kernel.

 

To remove mark hold use : sudo apt-mark unhold <linux-package-name>

Can y make a list of packages not to upgrade / overwrite ?

Good idea, the packages to hold are exactly those ones (plus the headers package).

I will double check and add a clarification in the first page, thanks!

@jock I try upgrade via deb. There is some errors => https://paste.yunohost.org/dirafakuve.erl

Uhmm... it seems that the headers package is not installed in the images I shipped before.

Well, I think I can remove the offending packages from the web directory :P

 

However it's ok just to install linux-image and linux-dtb packages: those are the important ones.

headers are needed if there is the need to compile kernel modules.

 

edit: I changed the installation command with apt, so it will resolve automatically dependencies without complaining...

@MX10.AC2N Discard u-boot package, it is not needed at all, although I don't understand why it complains...

Ok, so I tried a reboot, and so I have the box that starts with all the lines of codes at startup but after that it's black screen (instead of the lxdm login page), and no ssh connection possible ..

I will surely have to re-flash my sd card ...

Mmmh, I was not aware of this issue and have no issues with full-hd devices.  I don't know if your particular case has been fixed with newest kernel, I usually import HDMI timing and multimedia patches directly from libreelec so I'm not directly involved into this kind of tweaks.

About dvi -> hdmi conversion, maybe you mean the opposite (hdmi tv box -> dvi monitor/tv) ?

I may do some tests with the appliances I have around if you say there are issues there.

i'll check for other monitors with dvi-d.

hope we can turn this into a full blown computer that supports nearly all hdmi / dvi-d displays

Hi all,
As the update with the .deb files did not work for me I re-flash my sd card with the new bullseye image
The first start went correctly, I created the user and put in French, then I launched rk3318-config and I launched a reboot and there big bug as you can see on the photo => https://imgur.com/a/FlqEBST

So I connected my sd card on my pc in order to modify armbianEnv.txt and remove the overlays lines but this is what I have in armbianEnv.txt

/var/log.hdd/alternatives.log {
	monthly
	rotate 12
	compress
	delaycompress
	missingok
	notifempty
	create 644 root root
}
                                                                                                                                                           

I don't understand anything anymore, is it repairable or I have to start over and especially not to forget to do apt update && apt upgrade before doing rk3318-config .. @jock what do you think of all this?

While I was in Sweden some month ago, I only had access to an old 1024x768 monitor, connected via an HDMI to DVI adapter. It did NOT work. Multitool, yes, everything else, no.

I would not recommend to do an apt update && apt upgrade before you have gone through "armbian-config" and frozen firmware and kernel updates, or frozen them by other means.

Yes, this is a very common situation when there is an issue during the boot process: it corrupts the armbianEnv.txt.

I faced it dozen of times, unfortunately. There is an armbian service that read and then rewrite the damned file for a reason unknown to me.

The kernel dump looks quite "generic". I may guess that I missed to update the led-conf3 dtb in the armbian sources because I was doing on-the-fly changes during the testing. <_<

 

I will do a double check soon, in the meantime just stay stick with 1.1Ghz frequency (I have to fix this too, since the dtb is set for 1.0Ghz....)

 

Try this armbianEnv.txt, it should suits your configuration. You may need to fix the rootdev though: mine is from the Debian bullseye image.

Try this armbianEnv.txt, it should suits your configuration.

Well, I just tried by rewriting the armbianEnv.txt file as you indicated to me, but I found myself faced with a start that keeps running in a loop. Wild electric disconnection, I don't like that .. Anyway I'm starting from scratch, can you explain to me what rk3318-box-emmc-ddr rk3318-box-emmc-hs200 is for because I did not use them before..

Thank

Enables the HS200 mode for the internal eMMC.

Normally this is safe, because the kernel asks the eMMC is it is able to work in that mode.

I have another board (rk322x) which has a HS200 eMMC and it is able to reach a sequential read speed of 130MB/s!

 

Sometimes the eMMC or the board is not able to keep up, and activating the switch crashes everything.

 

The same applies with emmc-ddr overlay, just that the mode here is DDR, which is yet capable of reaching considerable speeds (> 90MB/s).

 

Note that it is just the bus speed, the eMMC should be of good quality, which is not always the case on tv boxes.

 

edit: about the esp8089 issues, the driver is not yet included into mainline kernels like 5.14
