no network on Compulab Utilite Pro

[Thomas Genty]

Hello,

Using the last image for cubox-i (bookworn) , I m unable to get an access to internet using the default interface.

eth0 is détected but non functionnal, no eth1  card and no wifi card detected

 

This is a known problem :

Does someone has a recent kernel for this device ?

I've an old defconfig for kernel 5.2.1 that works (eth0 , eth1 and wifi too)

I'm slowly using this defconfig to build a more recent one (5.4.302 is ok but EOL...) 

Many thanks

[Igor]

If you need older images for cubox-i, archive and oldarchieve at https://fi.mirror.armbian.de/

Hi Igor,

Thanks for the link

But i think  I have already tried all proposed kernels without any luck so far.

There is no error in logs, just it doesn't work at all. Interface doesn't bring up with or without dhcp.

I though some older images worked ... here you are on your own. Compare device tree from cubox and this hardware and repeate this on modern kernel, and apply difference. Just an idea. Sadly, no simple solution such as download and play.

In fact, image boot very well with minimal change. (dtb change and something about virtual console)

It' s after 🥲

Hello,

Here is a config file that works with linux-6.6.119  config-6.6.119

And a tarball here : https://drive.google.com/file/d/14EHPMT01-geYNflC2lqXNue4ZH25z-lA/view?usp=drive_link with a fresh built kernel.

Two small patches are needed : one to activate the wifi/bluetooth card (in dtb file), another to add a delay in mwifiex_sdio.c 

What works : wifi, eth0 and eth1 cards

I can't activate the bluetooth card with btmrvl_sdio (need to be investigate)

If someone else can test this (@rolli_44 , @umiddelb ? ).

Next  : propose a patch to integrate this board in armbian ?
