Armbian For Tanix TX6S (H616)

[Al Nahian]

So, For some Months I was trying to Use Latest Armbian on My Tx6S , First I found Nick Avollic's (Nick A) Armbian build that has my tx6s version supported the axp313 one but it was old (I can work with that though) but I wanted something that would support armbian latest.At first I tried to import directly from his repo but as he used miniarch patches it was difficult but somehow with some of ai assistantance I managed to made latest one but it was not on the latest stable kernal I used it for some time than now I thought why not get lastest kernal so After a lot of trail and error I finally managed to get latest Armbian and latest stable kernal working on my Tx6s.Its Also syncable to official armbian without issues .

[I do recommended people to build/compile their own image from sources and not to trust any random build on internet. You can build your own image from my forked githubs add-tanix-tx6s-axp313 branch your own image]

 

 

In my test in CLI I found almost all the things working correctly.I will test the GUI/Desktop Interface later.

Tested,

GUI Desktop(Xfce Minimal)

Tested Web Browsing (Via Firefox)

Video Playback On YouTube(Via firefox)

Confirmed Audio Playback

 

I can confirm the GUI works but if anyone wants to use this box as desktop I think they should use it with lightweight de like Xfce or i3 also web browsing is painfully slow also aim for lightweight browser.
