ap6275p on trunk images?

[OttawaHacker]

I tried both the 6.8.10 and 6.1.43 releases from CI pipeline and none of these has the ap6275p wifi option in the armbian-config tool. There was a previous post that mentioned that the module got merged for the new kernels but is there an ETA to have this one in the CI releases? I'm curious to try vlc but haven't been able to install that one yet with the new releases.

You need something like https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/main/patch/kernel/rockchip-rk3588-edge/dt/rk3588s-orangepi-5b.dts#L32 to enable it on mainline. I don't know the situation because of i don't have ap6275p module for opi5 but it works with Khadas edge 2.

 

And we have an overlay for opi5 in 6.1 https://github.com/armbian/linux-rockchip/blob/rk-5.10-rkr6/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/overlay/orangepi-5-ap6275p.dts

Would you know by any chance what is missing to have this one show up in the hardware section in armbian-config? In 6.1, there are only two options available. Or is this a pre-release thing?

 

I will try that other change for the 6.8 to enable it, but any reason this is not included in the current build?

It's interesting. I'll check it out to see what's missing
