Tanix TX6 and T95 MAX linux

[ktkdd]

Hi guys!

few weeks ago i start some work for adaptation current mainline linux kernel and u-boot to this tvboxes.
my first and main goal is run k3s and working opencl on this devices, but i make to work the whole device
so and i ready to provide fully working vanila armbian image with 5.7rc6 kernel.
also this is very good platform to "hobby" because on board you have easy access to two GPIOs and i2c bus(for example i connect i2c oled display)

currently working:

• sd/mmc
• emmc
• ethernet (ac200)
• wifi(xr819)
• usb/usb3
• i2c
• gpio led
• hdmi(with audio and CEC posible)
• CPU dvfs/frequency change
• Temperature sensors
• GPU with opengles (possible with opencl need to test this moment)
• IR (hardcoded tanix tx6 remote keymap)

n/a:

• spdiff

image to download:

so, and if you want to install armbian to internal emmc flash:

1. boot linux from sdcard
2. write armbian image to internal emmc (named mmcblk2, you can check dmesg after boot)

   [B]dd if=Armbian_20.02.1_Allwinnerth6vbox_buster_current_5.7-rc6_desktop.img of=/dev/mmcblk2 bs=32m status=progress[/B]

3. reboot
4. profit!

Both images work on Sunvell Q Plus (Allwinner H6 and Android 9 v2.1.16 2gb / 16Gb) except the infrared remote. Great job! Next week I will switch to h616 4gb, can you help me compile 5.8rc kernel (for testing). Currently armbian works, libreelec, android does not work (many emmc bad blocks) so the change

Hi guys,
nice job! I'm going to buy a t95max 4/32Gb mainly for playing around and ADS-B tracking with rtlsdr.
Fully available for testing and support, any news about 5.8 kernel?
Also trying to follow on Armbian forum but it is very hard and chaotic.. anyway, I'll keep you posted.

Thanks,
Luca.

currently working:[*]wifi(xr819)

XR819 it does not work on MX10 Pro (H6), with dmesg it is not even loaded.
Same issue with wifi on LibreElec image.
I opened the tvbox, the wifi / bt chipset is absolutely an XR819.
The only positive thing: all the four usb port work fine, also the usb3.
