HackXit, check these docs: https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Fine-Tuning/#how-to-toggle-boot-output

Yes, I've seen this and tried but when I put 'console=both' or 'console=serial' into armbianEnv.txt the system won't boot up anymore, so I figured I might be doing something wrong. The docs aren't really "guiding" in that particular case.

Maybe I misunderstood the instructions? The - or + console is confusing to me at least and since it explicitly says "either boot.cmd OR armbianEnv.txt" I decided to not touch boot.cmd and stick to armbianEnv.txt, but yea... above happened.

You can edit boot.cmd (and recompile to boot.scr), but it is not recommended if you are not confident in what you are doing. 

 

It is possible that this feature is broken for this board. Since this is nothing critical, I guess nobody pays attention.

 

Thanks for pointing this out. Will be checked why is this so.

Tinkerboard Onboard audio is now available out of the box for build-it-yourself enthusiasts on default kernel.  :beer: New image should be ready in the following days.

Congrats, now let's fix the CSI support. :P According to  this issue, OV5647 (RPi 5MP cam) and IMX219 (RPI 8 MP cam) should work with upstream drivers.  The Rockchip ISP1 driver which was merged to 4.4 kernel in january should do the job and the Asus workaround with RK CIF ISP10 should no longer be needed. Unfortunately I fail when I compile a kernel with the needed drivers. 

When I adjust the kernel to activate the needed drivers, the board doesn't come up.

Hello Bluetooth.  Thanks @Igor for the services help, loading on boot no problem.  Played some music through the board from my phone over Bluetooth, nice and smooth.

Does this improve the chances of my wireless keyboard working? It's not bluetooth exactly, it's got it's own proprietary dongle. It works on the mainline kernel, but not 4.4, even though the keyboard is ancient. I wonder if there are some kernel config options that are needed to support USB interfaces that are enabled in the mainline, but not in 4.4? I'm really looking forward to the new image, even if I have to bring my keyboard home from work to test!

Are there Linux drivers for that keyboard? I feel like we talked about that before, do you have the lsusb output while it's plugged in?

Good memory, yes I tried to diff the config on the page 14, but page 15:

...is where I detailed most of my findings. Looks like the dongle started working between 4.11 and 4.12

I've downloaded the "Ubuntu desktop - legacy kernel" from the armbian main page and flashed it, did "apt update && apt upgrade" and yet the sound doesn't seem to be working for me.
So I'm guessing the "default" kernel is something else?

BTW
Sound once worked when I did the fix in the Tinkerboard Sound Post of yours. I'm simply wondering what you're referring to, since I'm not the brightest linux kid around and I tend to get confused by all the kernel terminology.

I'm trying to hop onto the tinkerboard train again to use it as my main development station for µController related stuff and would certainly like to help here with any testing or such, as long as I know what I am doing.

The image hasn't been updated yet, the changes are primarily in asound.conf and default.pa, which don't get touched on package upgrades. If you have a kernel dated after my update, then you can modify those with

https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/packages/bsp/rockchip/pulseaudio.txt

*Insert in where it lists modules*

and

https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/packages/bsp/rockchip/asound.conf

*Copy/add depending on if you have one or not*

I see. Great, I'll do that, thanks for the hint.

On another topic:

There is one thing that NEVER worked for me, which is "dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration". That command changes the keyboard configuration, but the system either forgets or resets back to US keyboard-configuration after every reboot.
I honestly don't know why, I was mostly busy with other stuff.
If anyone got a hint as to why this happens, I would greatly appreciate it :)

I've inserted the modules from the provided .txt and also added the file asound.conf to /etc/ with the contents from github.
However, after restarting now the pulseaudio sound server won't function properly anymore ("Connection refused" upon trying to connect)
Must have done something wrong somewhere?

Then the kernel must be older than the update. I patched in a rename of the soundcard I/O channels to make it match ASUS and make sense (spdif, headphone, BT VoIP). Let me get back to you when I have access to my machine. Worst case I'll upload a deb for you to install the new kernel if you can't build yourself.

How do I update the armbian kernel? I doubt I could build it myself, definitly don't have the skillset.

Sorry for the late reply, been a busy week.

 

About the keyboard configuration, I've settled with the fact to use the rather simple command: `setxkbmap at`
It's an easy one liner and I only have to do it once per boot.. Only works once x-environment has booted, so no init.d scripts for that simple command. But I'll see if there's another way to script it sometime. For now it will work, been distracting me with this for too long anyways.

From the main armbian page or on github? I've used the armbian mainline download (from the armbian website)... But I guess I gotta redo ? Is there no way to not use a complete new image? Kinda tough to reconfigure everything now.

If you are using mainline kernel (4.14) you have to follow the instructions detailed in the thread dedicated to Tinker Board sound, that update has not been rolled out yet. If you are using 4.4 kernel you should, after installing all the files, simply have to apt update and upgrade now.

I think running apt update and apt upgrade should give you 4.4.117 or 119 since the new image came out. @Igor the repo was updated, correct?

If not, the link I shared in the new kernel testing thread has the most recent kernel packages in it, with the audio updates. Install those, verify you have 4.4.(newer than 112), then reinstall all the files you deleted, they are necessary.

(I'm working off my phone at the moment, I apologize for curtness or spelling errors)

Does Bluetooth Audio only work on the 4.4 default kernal? Or is it working on the new 4.14 mainline kernel? .. I spent all weekend configuring a new 4.14 install and now want to send audio to a bluetooth speaker (Amazon Echo).

I'm afraid at present it only works with 4.4.  I can't give you a very good reason for this, the rtk_hciattach program simply refuses to function properly with the Tinkerboard on 4.14.  @Myy and myself spent some time working on it https://github.com/Miouyouyou/MyyQi/issues/7, I got some progress toggling the BT gpio's manually, Myy wrote a driver to help, but in the end it simply refused.  Now, I lost track of it long before the conversation was over, and I will be trying to move some of the progress from the default image to the Next image, so I will have another go of it, and I know there were some efforts to make it mainline without needing that attach tool at all, I'll have to see what became of that.

You can always contribute to the project (big "Donate Now" button at the bottom right of this page), I know that Myy has some links in Github for donations, as for myself I have an amazon wishlist for those interested (only shared on request), it's how I get some hardware for support purposes that I wouldn't buy on my own (like the RPi touchscreen).
