Jorge Cury Posted Tuesday at 05:57 AM Posted Tuesday at 05:57 AM Hi All, I'm struggling with my Orange PI 5 Plus and various Armbian Flavors for 3 days. My Preferred DE, Armbian_25.8.1_Orangepi5-plus_noble_vendor_6.1.115_kde-neon_desktop, after all setup on second boot... failed msg: wait until boot finishes... XFCE, Sound does not work over HDMI. Finally, Armbian_25.8.1_Orangepi5-plus_trixie_vendor_6.1.115_cinnamon_desktop, is doing well. Except for, I'm missing start button. If I want Firefox, I have to open it via cmd If I want to capture screen... I dont know even the name to call via cmd... See my Phone shot https://drive.google.com/file/d/1d6K4i_yshHCrKvXR-13VFkpWzPKx8GaA/view?usp=sharing Could somebody tell me what is wrong? Thanks, 0 Quote
Jorge Cury Posted Tuesday at 06:12 PM Author Posted Tuesday at 06:12 PM Thanks laibsch, A little bit better, but this is a partial solution. Start button still missing. to turn off computer I have enter shutdown on cmd. And "logout" what is the command to log out? I am looking for solution on cinnamon forum but nothing until now. 0 Quote
laibsch Posted 18 hours ago Posted 18 hours ago You are likely hitting genuine bugs and/or the situation of missing packages. I do not use Cinnamon, so I cannot comment much. Try to see if there is anything relevant in the logs. Check ~/.xsession* files for hints, too. Maybe try a different DE first, set up it to be working and then work on your preferred choice after that. Have a look at APA which is trying to improve the experience of Armbian as an OS, maybe it can help you. Good luck, amigo! 0 Quote
