dragonlost Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 someone would have a tuto or info to add a custom configuration of the hdmi port to the tinkkerboard (u-boot) ? hdmi_timings need for my screen : 1200 0 100 24 52 1920 0 65 4 25 0 0 0 60 0 169000000 0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyMac32 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 The last time we enabled the HDMI in u-boot it crashed the kernel somehow. Never tried to debug it.Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you try adding the modeline with cvt + xrandr? Here is a tutorial in this link If that doesn't work, you can also try to add a line like the following to the file /boot/armbianEnv.txt (if it does not exist, then create it): extraargs=video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1200@60 Of course, changing the resolution according to your needs.

João Cravo Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 @TonyMac32 Probably I didn't explain my problem well. When I run tinkerboard with armbian, I can NOT access the server through SSH or directly because HDMI doesn't work as well. So I can't run the armbianmonitor -u.

TonyMac32 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 It's impossible to debug without information beyond "it doesn't work". As far as the no SSH issue, that is very irregular. What kernel/image/etc? I'm guessing you don't have the ability to watch the debug UART?Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

João Cravo Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 @martinayotte It's two different problems, of course. 1- I can't connect to port 22 (although ping works, so I have routing to the board). 2- I can't get any image on a monitor over HDMI. @TonyMac32 You are completely right. I know for you it's very difficult to help me with me just complaining "it doesn't work". I hoped that someone here had a similar problem in the past and point me that I'm doing some kind of "rookie" mistake. The armbian version I'm using was Armbian_5.35.171201_Tinkerboard_Ubuntu_xenial_next_4.14.2 and similar desktop version. I tried more 1 or 2 older versions from https://dl.armbian.com/tinkerboard/archive/ without success. I would say the problem was on my board but I got it working with tinkerOS (both ssh and HDMI) So the problem is somewhere else... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen a case where file system was corrupted, SSL certificate/keys file corrupted preventing the SSHD to start. That could explain your issue ... To be sure, you need to log using USB-TTL Serial dongle and verify the log, especially "systemctl status ssh.service". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyMac32 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 If the 4.14 image is from the right period of time, the u-boot can lock up while trying to init the HDMI monitor.

TonyMac32 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 This was where you boot without the monitor attached and plug it in later. But that was only a few reports, best to just use an up to date imageSent from my Pixel using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
João Cravo Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 I just tested the following ones - Armbian_5.75_Tinkerboard_Debian_stretch_next_4.19.20 - Armbian_5.75_Tinkerboard_Ubuntu_bionic_next_4.19.20 - Armbian_5.75_Tinkerboard_Ubuntu_bionic_next_4.19.20_desktop Always the same result as showed below I guess I will buy the USB-TTL Serial dongle and give it a try as @martinayotte suggested. $ sudo nmap -sn 192.168.0.0/24 Starting Nmap 7.70 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2019-03-03 13:21 CET Nmap scan report for tinkerboard.home (192.168.0.10) Host is up (0.015s latency).

FanDjango Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 What I sometimes do before I resort to the serial port: If you are starting from sd-card, take it and insert it with a USB adapter on a linux pc. Mount it and look at /var/log to get some hints. Perhaps put some diagnostic commands into /etc/rc.local, like "systemctl status ssh.service (with output into a file)" or whatever (like netstat -tlpen, is port even open?). Especially perhaps try to run "armbianmonitor -u" in there. Reboot, and then take it to a pc again and look at the output. It's a pain but sometimes you can see something while you are waiting for the USB-TTL serial dongle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If those work, then at least we can narrow down the problem to mainline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyMac32 Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 @jpegxguy For the mainline ethernet tx/rx delays, were those just copied from the Rock64 or were they empirically determined? They're caused by trace impedance/etc, so they're tied to the specific hardware. I'll dig up the thread/tool Ayufan and Tkaiser were using and see what I get, there might be some more to gain there, since obviously the default ones are fairly bad. @Igor Any argument against moving Ayufan's RK3328 mainline to "next" and putting true mainline at "dev"? I think it's to the point that 5.1/5.2 are nearly to RK3288 levels of support in mainline. [edit] Fixed the lower USB port on Renegade. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyMac32 Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 @jpegxguy the LED patch applied but didn't work on 4.20, have you tested it against the 5.0? Just so I'm not losing my mind.

jpegxguy Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 I don't use an sd card, but I did try with mmc0 too. It seems to work for me, K 4.20 and 5.0 from archlinuxARM. The gpio-controller thing seems to be there in upstream as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpegxguy Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 On another note, if the 8ma changes for SD card that are in armbian sources aren't upstream and you consider them better, definitely do send patch upstream! Good work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyMac32 Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 Right, I'm getting a statement that the gpios on the rk805 don't exist from the driver, see debugging is in order there if I have time. The Rock64 patches look the same, I'll test that when I can. For the drive level, I'm hoping to capture the waveforms with my oscilloscope to demonstrate the differences beyond theory and some rectified boot failures, then I'll set them up as overrides in the individual dts's as Robin rightly pointed out on a similar topic that the increased drive level will cause increased EMI from the board, some users won't be fan.
