Orange PI - no EDID read with latest Debian Stretch & uBoot

[zamar19]

I've a problem with latest Armbian Debian Server stretch (ARMBIAN 5.38 stable Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) 4.14.18-sunxi, Uboot loader 2017.11) on OrangePI One, and OrangePI PC. It boots seemingly OK, but without any output to 1080P HDMI monitor. So I've no video. But Ubuntu Desktop with Legacy kernel boots fine using the same SDCard (and same power supply ). I can SSH to the Debian after boot, here's the boot and diag log. Couldn't wait for senseless SDCard testing to finish, as it works perfect with Armbian Ubuntu Desktop version. Legacy version on 1st boot shown boot progress and defaulted to 720P resolution, which I changed later to 1080P. But Debian Server doesn't show ANY output on the same monitor during boot and after. I understand, there may be a problem with querying EDID - but how I can fix it? It can be a wrong color scheme too, like 1 instead of 0. Both OS versions are downloaded from *official* Armbian page links, tested upon burn to SDCard, and SHA256 matched to control files. I tried 2 different SDCards, and 2 Debian versions - OrangePI One and PC - the same thing: no HDMI output.

[zamar19]

Tried to boot on another 1080P monitor - and the same OS booted OK. So it looks like uBoot can't read EDID from the 1st monitor. The question is: what are other ways to set monitor resolution apart from reading it from EDID? Can it be directly permanently set in uBoot? Is fw_setenv command supported in Debian Stretch in write mode? Tried fw_printenv, and got "Environment does not start on (erase) block boundary", which results in Read Only access to env from SSH console. Is that the latest uBoot? It seems that error was fixed in Aug 2016, not sure though if its the same uBoot line.

 

Can we enable Netconsole in this uBoot, and how?

[zamar19]

I tried to follow advice from this post, but it didn't work:

 

add line in /boot/armbianEnv.txt :

extraargs=drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=HDMI-A-1:edid/1920x1080.bin video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080-24@60

 

I also tried to add similar line in boot.cmd and recompile, and it failed to boot:

setenv extraargs "drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=HDMI-A-1:edid/1920x1080.bin video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080-24@60"

 

I assume the generic 1920x1080.bin from the distro can be used instead of my monitor edid.bin? The reason is I've a 4K monitor, so not sure if Linux driver will read or execute info from its EDID properly even if manually added to the EDID folder.

 

Also the question: should a full path to the EDID folder be given in extraargs, or its known to the system? Do you guys ever answer questions, or its a monologues forums? I realize many have similar issues with monitor EDID - but no solution works for different monitors or OS release the same way, and the Wiki docs are grossly obsolete. I also suspect it may be a code syntax issue.

Sometimes. Mainline driver has not reached upstream yet, it may have bugs. Bugs that will not be fixed in this version or that may have been fixed already in the version that will appear upstream.

And kernel related questions asked without providing debug logs in form of output of "armbianmonitor -u"  are often ignored, when people don't read this page that is linked below the forum header why should we bother to read and try to answer in return?

This path should be relative to /lib/firmware, which means that if edid/1920x1080.bin is specified then /lib/firmware/edid/1920x1080.bin should already exist, assuming the DRM output notation "HDMI-A-1" is correct.

do you read flags on the downloadpage? 

cause when you download mainline images you'll see this one:

 

start to complain after 19h is a bit.. Hmm. let's say, I would be sometimes happy if I get an answer within 24h for services I pay for... Keep in mind, this is a spare-time projects, people who might have experience with your issue might have a live besides Armbian. If you have a quick look here:

http://linux-sunxi.org/Mainlining_Effort#Status_Matrix

You'll see that HDMI got mainlined with 4.17 kernel. Whereas armbian next sticks at 4.14 at the moment. The only reason you get this earlier was due to the fact that @zador.blood.stained was patient enough to patch the next kernel 8 months ago (and here too with a WIP flag, means more or less the same as for wip/testing images, things may not work 'as expected'). Furthermore you could follow this thread here:

where HDMI was discussed once again... Not that i want to bother you, but there's a reason why we suggest mainline for server use cases only (where people normally access their devices via SSH) and why even then, the image is flagged as testing.  

[zamar19]

I'm not asking for out-of-the-box solution, but merely look for a workaround, and besides all smarty non-working drivers there're pretty straightforward "hard-coded" solutions, which can be suggested by more experienced users. Yet NONE is suggested so far. Btw, running LXQT desktop correctly identifies all available resolutions from 4K monitor EDID. So my guess is, uBoot driver tries to run 1st default 4K reso instead of set in extraargs 1080P, and fails to do it, especially without Mali support. Yet hard coding reso works on Ubuntu desktop with legacy kernel. I assume, uBoot graphics driver in Debian package is different from OS graphics driver?

 

These commands fail, but seems forwarded to the kernel, as changing them alters boot results, so may be its syntax error?

extraargs=drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=HDMI-A-1:edid/1920x1080.bin,video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080-24@60

extraargs="drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=HDMI-A-1:edid/1920x1080.bin video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080-24@60"

 

For now I hooked HDMI 2-port switch to the OPI PC. Once the device reads EDID from 1080P monitor, I flip the switch to the 4K monitor and it shows normal 1080P pic. Will see, may be editing default 1080P EDID file will bring more light, unless someone suggests something on-topic. I got both monitors EDIDs with get-edid and copied to the EDID folder, then references in armbianEnv.txt . They both have 256K size, while the Debian package EDIDs are 128K in size. May be shrinking the file size by deleting EDID extensions info would do the trick?

 

What webUI admin tool is a good match for OPI on Debian? Webmin sounds a bit heavy, if still in the Debian repo.

Here's sudo armbianmonitor -u output. Link to it was present in the 1st post, but somehow auto deleted on its edit:

Hi guys,

 

I downloaded and burned to SDCard the last nightly image Armbian_5.58.180812_Orangepipc_Ubuntu_bionic_next_4.17.14 for OrangePI PC. Added desktop with apps, and it boots to desktop upon login. How to boot straight to desktop, without login and typing startx?

 

I have 4K HDMI display, so must run development images, since stable don't support 4K as I was explained here earlier. The display has 2 main resolutions: 4K and 1080P. But in Armbian Display settings, choosing 4K gives full screen image, and choosing 1080P results in only a portion of display area used by the system. How I can activate in Armbian the 2nd main display resolution 1080P, so the desktop would occupy the entire screen with lower CPU & GPU load than 4K?
