Orange Pi RV2

[sven-ola]

Hello @JamesCL! The current image from https://privat-in.de/ should work. I will upload new images any minute now. However: if you only need Ethernet, Orange Pi R2S [1] is a better choice probably, b/c you got extra 2 times 2.5 gbit with that...

Typo. Mention Ethernet IFs

Already got answer from upstream programmer❣️ That kernel thread in RPMSG was removed due to excessive CPU usage. I got the impression that this is true: edge:desktop is nearly un-usable. Also they say: there is kernel 6.19 from upstream/upstream in the make. For now, I'm reverting HDMI audio (and all other rCPU funcs) for edge.

Hi @sven-ola  I downloaded this version, "Armbian-unofficial_26.02.0-trunk_Orangepirv2_trixie_current_6.6.99_minimal.img", and it's working on an SD card without problems... Is it possible for the OPI RV2 to boot from the eMMC with this image? Thanks.

Hello @sven-ola! Yesterday, everything built fine for me using your git orangepi-rv2 branch with the EDGE kernel. After making the changes,

  Today, when applying the latest fixes I got an error while compiling the image. I used this build config

Do I need to clear all previous build data? Or how can I fix this error? Thank you.

Hello @JamesCL! I got the same error. You need to select at least one desktop package - error shows up with empty DESKTOP_APPGROUPS_SELECTED= 

 

Hello @Malay: That was on my todo list. I grabbed an eMMC from an old Odroid. It tried to boot if inserted. Thus boot sequence is: SD/TF, then eMMC, then MTD. So I booted with SD. eMMC showed up in /dev/mmcblk2. I started armbian-install, selected "Install on eMMC". Now it tries to boot that old Odroid image. So boot0, uboot, and SBI are there. Should work if you copy an image to /dev/mmcblk2.

 

@All others: if that kernel thread for realtime-CPU (and HDMI audio) is active, the board always reports a load=2.0 or higher. This does not cause a very un-responsive Wayland-Gnome3-Desktop, this has other causes. Anyhow, this desires more investigation, since running a polling process to grab data from a realtime CPU does not sound right, there has to be an Interrupt or so, so I may again revert the reverted reversion (of the RPMSG kthread). Also I learned, that the Fedora project has an even larger esos.elf (rCPU firmware). I am curious what additional stuff may be in there 🤔
