Orangepi 3 h6 allwiner chip

Murdag · April 16, 2019

so reboot with the latest nightly works for me, great! wifi does not work out of the box but I think 5.1 will bring this in?

asa this works it would be really nice if one could write the wifi password onto the sd card somehow without having to build the image by myself, if thats possible a hint would be very welcome

[ docker via snap does still not work but as I said if you use the docker install script it will work fine (cause I think someone had the same issue) ]

simply define it in /etc/network/interface ...

I guess the main issue is that I'm using a mac and cant see the filesystem, on rasperry pi/ rasbian I could see some part of the fs e.g. /boot and you could do something like touch ssh to enable ssh (which is on in armbian by default which is fine) but something along the lines for wifi would make it easier. I guess rasbian has some part of its system on fat32 and armbian is ext4 all the way or something like that?

I guess you can install VirtualBox on your Mac and lunch a VM with Linux Live CD and could then mount the SDCard and edit /etc/network/interface .

connect it up via ethernet, ssh in and make your edits

Everything necessary is built in. It's just a dd for u-boot and cp for kernel and dtb, and that's it. You don't even need /lib/firmware or /lib/modules.

PPP missing, can't make DSL connection

Your image seems to try to find those modules and not finding them ...

This doesn't seem to be a "untouched" image, since those modules are not part of the build.

Did you install a specific applications or did you modified /etc/modules-load.d/modules.conf ?

Kernel configuration that is used for development is not fine tuned. Add those:

CONFIG_PARPORT=m
CONFIG_PRINTER=m
CONFIG_PPDEV=m

and this error will go away.

Yeah I scraped VB cause it was so slow, now have qemu setup and running but did not figure out how to forward a drive (that is not even mounted on the host). Putting it onto a LAN and then configuring the wifi things works sure, it's just a bit more to do. thanks anyway

Hi - could someone guide me how to apply vanilla kernels to de dev builds, eg 5.09 or 5.1-rc5 for the H6 OrangePi's please?

Currently for OpiOnePlus still 5.07 is being used, TiA!

Right, because Armbian is using Megous branch, and Megous branch didn't merge 5.0.9 yet.

Armbian will switch to 5.1.y as soon as there is no more RCs, maybe in few days/weeks from now.

(I'm using Megous 5.1.y branch locally).

@martinayottewould it be possible to shared git diff for anyone else who would like to start experimenting with 5.1.y branch?

It is not that easy, you will need to disable few patches, tweaks some others, and create new ones ...

Hello.
Is that possible to check if PCIe-to-SATA native controller (like the one based on ASM1061 chip) works?
Does it work out-of-the-box or it requires driver rework? Is the rework even possible? Who could do it?
I'm aware of a broken PCIe implementation.
I think that such device in companion with SSD could be a perfect solution for Quad-Core A53 providing both performance and storage capacity.

Hi guys. I did a clean install of the latest nightly. I haven't installed anything else. Just install ntfs-3g package and added a external USB ntfs drive to fstab. After rebooting I got the following errors. What could be the matter? Maybe wrong fstab record?

Oh... as I understand it has nothing to do with fstab. (

Don't worry, these are just early driver probe failures, that succeed later on as they are retried.

I just went to build a new image for my OPi3 and found that the 'Buster' option has appeared - I just had to go for it! :thumbup:

Everything seemed to have built OK and once I'd applied the WiFi 'fix' from here I was up and running.

The issue I've found is that I was unable to ping anything :

george@orangepi3:~$ ping 127.0.0.1
ping: socket: Operation not permitted

This seems to be because the ping binary apparently should have the SUID bit set, so :

george@orangepi3:~$ which ping
/bin/ping
george@orangepi3:~$ ls -l /bin/ping
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 73280 Aug  3  2018 /bin/ping
george@orangepi3:~$ sudo chmod +s /bin/ping
george@orangepi3:~$ ping 127.0.0.1
PING 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.118 ms
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.127 ms
^C

I don't know if this is an issue with the Armbian build process or perhaps it is being echoed from the Debian Buster sources, and so I'm not sure how/where is the correct place to report it :unsure:

It is probably Buster related since my own Armbian image doesn't have the issue :

root@orangepi3:~# uname -a
Linux orangepi3 5.1.0-rc4-sunxi64 #5.78 SMP Fri Apr 12 15:02:40 EDT 2019 aarch64 GNU/Linux

There's clearly more to this than it seems :

I found this article from back in 2016, which then led me to here.

And so now:

george@orangepi3:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure iputils-ping
george@orangepi3:~$ ls -l /bin/ping
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 73280 Aug  3  2018 /bin/ping
george@orangepi3:~$ ping google.com

64 bytes from lhr25s09-in-f174.1e100.net (216.58.208.174): icmp_seq=2 ttl=57 time=76.7 ms

What the ????

The discussion thread goes on (and on..) but this is getting a bit beyond me :wacko:

Hi, friends. I noticed such an interesting feature. I have a 100 megabit Internet connection and on windows PC with uTorrent have a rate of about 10mb/sec download but if run download on Transmittion-deamon i have a maximum of 5mb/sec i.e. only half speed. Why?
