Patrick Michaels Posted November 7, 2017 Posted November 7, 2017 Edit: Please see my second post in this thread. I think I've identified exactly what my problem is, please see my second post in the thread. I need to change the display mode to something that my own TV is able to display. But no matter what I've tried, I haven't been able to change the display mode. How do you do it? ---- Hello, I just got an Orange Pi PC. I installed using the Armbian_5.32.170629_Orangepipc_Ubuntu_xenial_dev_4.11.7.7z image. I'm able to log in through SSH, and I've installed all updates (apt-get update && apt-get upgrade) I have the Orange Pi PC connected to my HDMI television. The screen appears blank, nothing appears on it at any time. I tried experimenting with the disp_mode option in armbian-config -> System -> Bootenv. I tried "disp_mode=1280x720p60" and "disp_mode=640x480p60", neither have worked. The default didn't work either. edit: The screen is still blank. Since I posted, I've also tried putting these setenv video-mode sunxi:1280x720-24@60,monitor=dvi,hpd=1,edid=1 disp.screen0_output_mode=1280x720p60 in /boot/armbianEnv.txt, and then running "sudo mkimage -C none -A arm -T script -d /boot/boot.cmd /boot/boot.scr" and rebooting a few times. I also put 'saveenv' at the end of /boot/boot.cmd. None of this seems to have changed anything. What would you suggest I try doing next? ------- beyond this line, information taken from my Orange PI PC: ------- Kernel version: Linux orangepipc 4.11.12-sun8i #16 SMP Tue Nov 7 00:24:13 CET 2017 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux dmesg: [ 0.000000] Booting Linux on physical CPU 0x0 [ 0.000000] Linux version 4.11.12-sun8i (root@armbian) (gcc version 7.1.1 20170707 (Linaro GCC 7.1-2017.08) ) #16 SMP Tue Nov 7 00:24:13 CET 2017 [ 0.000000] CPU: ARMv7 Processor [410fc075] revision 5 (ARMv7), cr=50c5387d [ 0.000000] CPU: div instructions available: patching division code [ 0.000000] CPU: PIPT / VIPT nonaliasing data cache, VIPT aliasing instruction cache [ 0.000000] OF: fdt: Machine model: Xunlong Orange Pi PC [ 0.000000] Memory policy: Data cache writealloc [ 0.000000] cma: Reserved 16 MiB at 0x7cc00000 [ 0.000000] On node 0 totalpages: 253952 [ 0.000000] free_area_init_node: node 0, pgdat c0b5fd80, node_mem_map ef740000 [ 0.000000] Normal zone: 1728 pages used for memmap [ 0.000000] Normal zone: 0 pages reserved [ 0.000000] Normal zone: 196608 pages, LIFO batch:31 [ 0.000000] HighMem zone: 57344 pages, LIFO batch:15 [ 0.000000] psci: probing for conduit method from DT.

Patrick Michaels Posted November 7, 2017 Author Posted November 7, 2017 I've just tried attaching it to an other TV, and it does work and displays text on the screen with that TV. The TV reports that the image coming from the OrangePiPC is 1360x768 at 60hz. So that suggests that all my attempts to change the video/display mode actually did nothing at all. It's not an acceptable solution to just use the other TV, it belongs to my roommate. Can someone please explain how to change the video mode? I've read these pages https://docs.armbian.com/Hardware_Allwinner/#how-to-reconfigure-video-output https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Fine-Tuning/ and tried adding things to /boot/armbianEnv.txt and /boot/boot.cmd and recompiling to boot.scr. What am I doing wrong?
Patrick Michaels Posted November 7, 2017 Author Posted November 7, 2017 I just noticed when it boots while connected to the other TV, at some point during boot there's a message which says "warning: bad CRC, using default environment", and so I guess that's why my attempts to change the display mode had no effect. Does anyone know what to do?
Igor Posted November 7, 2017 Posted November 7, 2017 Kernel 4.11 is deprecated / end of life. We moved to 4.13 but images are not yet out ... but you can build one - choose NEXT kernel.
Patrick Michaels Posted November 7, 2017 Author Posted November 7, 2017 Thanks. I've selected 'next' kernel from armbian-config and it seems to be installing. Will this make it possible to change the screen resolution? Edit: I've got a picture on the screen on my own TV now, thanks. But I'm not sure it's the right resolution. I might still need help on how to change the resolution. I'll do some testing and come back later
Patrick Michaels Posted November 7, 2017 Author Posted November 7, 2017 I have kernel 4.13.11 now, and I have a picture on the screen with my own TV, but still pretty much the same problem. The resolution is too big and not all of the screen is visible. I can't see the commands I'm typing in because they're below the bottom of the screen, so I still have to use ssh. How are you supposed to change the screen resolution? What are you meant to do? I've searched and searched and tried adding different things to /boot/armbianEnv.txt as instructed by pages from docs.armbian.com and even done some trial and error guess work, nothing is working, I'm completely stuck.
Igor Posted November 7, 2017 Posted November 7, 2017 4.13.11 autodetect resolution. This means it asks your TV for it. Check TV settings first before you want to explore advanced settings (note that changes will come into action after second boot) at armbian. And you are in a development area which means things might not be developed, they certainly are not well tested and 100% not aligned with documentation. Bottom line. Not for end users. You still are welcome to explore but expect problems.
Patrick Michaels Posted November 7, 2017 Author Posted November 7, 2017 Ok thanks. When you say 'after second boot', do you mean after rebooting, or do you actually mean that you need to reboot twice? Just making sure I understand By the way I had already read and re-read (several times) that 'advanced settings link', I even linked to it myself earlier in the thread.
Igor Posted November 7, 2017 Posted November 7, 2017 9 minutes ago, Patrick Michaels said: reboot twice Yes. Exactly as written.

You still are welcome to explore but expect problems. I am using Orange Pi One with 4.13.10-sunxi image and a 5" 800 x 480 HDMI Display. As you mentioned EDID detection is automatic. But sometimes it fails to detect EDID and default resolution is set to 1024 x768 I need to the resolution to be 800 x 480 no matter what. I followed the advanced settings and fw_setenv video-mode sunxi:800x480-24@60,monitor=hdmi,hpd=1,edid=0 when I follow fw_printenv command it displays, video-mode=sunxi:800x480-24@60,monitor=hdmi,hpd=1,edid=0 But still sometimes(after multiple boots) resolution is set to 1024x768. This is a problem. I think edid=0 is not working properly because of this observation. Can anyone tell me how to solve this problem? Any suggestion/approach is welcomed.

Video driver is still considered testing as the whole mainline build for H3/H5/A64 and we can tag this as a bug @jernej . I know that sometimes failed to detect properly but forced resolution used to work ... at least with old simple fb driver which was in temporally function until this proper driver. In any case, a kernel is a month(s) away from production state and alternatives might not be useful for your case. Except digging into the video driver there is little you can do ... I hope you can wait a while?
jernej Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 4 hours ago, sunzone said: I followed the advanced settings That is a bit outdated, since 4.13 has proper DRM driver and U-Boot settings aren't considered anymore. Those instruction are also for non mainlined U-Boot driver and with the stock U-Boot driver can't be used anymore. Detecting monitor resolution is a bit quirky on H3. It doesn't have interrupt for for hot plug detection, so kernel will check every 10s or so for monitor attachment/removal. I'm not sure about reading EDID though. I can only confirm what you already know - if EDID is not read out correctly, fallback resolution is 1024x768. Try with detaching hdmi cable, wait more than 10s and plug it back.

If so, I can set fallback resolution to 800 x 480
jernej Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 9 minutes ago, sunzone said: is there any way to change the fall-back resolution somehow? it is hardcoded somewhere in general DRM code, you have to search for it, but I think it shouldn't be hard to change it.

Thank You very much for the help. I think I am going to write a script to reboot if resolution set to fallback resolution. Thanks again
sunzone Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 So I tested again with the latest build 4.13.13 for Opi One Results are A Okay... This time kernal auto detects EDID correctly almost every time. I didn't notice any occurrings of fallback resolution when the HDMI display(800x480) is connected But 4.13.10 often failed to detect EDID.

So how can I set a smaller resolution ? I have 3.5 inch HDMI display with a totally crazy resolution and I can't see anything on it... I would like to ignore edid and set something like at least 640x480.

Here is the log http://sprunge.us/FGJK What I see at boot is the logo for a minute and then black screen just after it. In dmesg I see something like this: [ 8.679626] sun8i-mixer 1100000.mixer: Couldn't get our reset line [ 8.679772] sun4i-drm display-engine: failed to bind 1100000.mixer (ops sun8i_mixer_platform_driver_exit [sun8i_mixer]): -517 [ 8.679778] sun4i-drm display-engine: Couldn't bind all pipelines components [ 8.679871] sun4i-drm display-engine: master bind failed: -517 Edited November 22, 2017 by zador.blood.stained Moved from OPi PC2 thread
Igor Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 We don't provide end user support for mainline H3/H5/A64 with a reason. It is extremely hard, expensive and usually complete waste of time since things are moving too fast. I barely find time to answer you this, for finding a problem I might spend a day, hour, a week? Those builds are considered beta/testing and if something doesn't work ... you are on your own or wait. 3 minutes ago, hanni76 said: can you help pleas with "next" 4.13.15 and OrangePi PC?

I have no idea what they did in the last couple of days that this stopped working.

zador.blood.stained Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 Especially we can't "fix" user-built images made with visible modifications when they are working fine without any modifications: http://sprunge.us/XPVI And especially if problems are reported in completely unrelated threads (Problems with OPi PC reported in OPi PC2 general discussions thread)

I didn't make any modifications to drm. I didn't change the device tree either.
zador.blood.stained Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 In any case there is nothing to fix on our side. Any modifications to patches, DT and DT overlays, board, sources and kernel configuration may have caused issues. In rare cases there may be even build host issues, but most likely it is kernel configuration or DT related.

The "next" branch has a DRM/KMS driver. If your display provides correct EDID modes for smaller resolutions you should be able to set a different resolution like with any other DRM driver, i.e. via XFCE control panel on desktop images. If display doesn't provide correct EDID you could force EDID mode through drm_kms_helper: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/kernel_mode_setting#Forcing_modes_and_EDID Please note that on Ubuntu and Debian firmware lives in /lib/firmware and kernel command line can be changed in /boot/boot.cmd or /boot/armbianEnv.txt (extraargs variable, not added by default)

It worked with the following line in /boot/armbianEnv.txt : extraargs=drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=HDMI-A-1:edid/640x480.bin video=HDMI-A-1:640x480-24@60
