Linux for Amlogic S805

[Titot]

Alas, not knowing what's happening at startup, I can't what to advise You.

On those models that I have everything working on the last images (with the available core) with the correct dtb (video output setting in eMMC and NAND).

ok, other thing .

With mxv dtb I find that only poweroff with the 4 USB (OTG on android) plugged with some device keyboard or other.

hd180 dtb

usb_a {
lm-compatible = "amlogic,usb";
lm-periph-id = <0x0>;
clock-src = "usb0";
port-id = <0x0>;
port-type = <0x1>;
port-speed = <0x0>;
port-config = <0x0>;
port-dma = <0x0>;
port-id-mode = <0x1>;
host-only-core = <0x1>;
pmu-apply-power = <0x1>;
gpio-work-mask = <0x1>;
status = "okay";

mxv dtb

usb_a {
lm-compatible = "amlogic,usb";
lm-periph-id = <0x0>;
clock-src = "usb0";
port-id = <0x0>;
port-type = <0x1>;
port-speed = <0x0>;
port-config = <0x0>;
port-dma = <0x0>;
port-id-mode = <0x0>;
gpio-vbus-power = "GPIOAO_5";
gpio-work-mask = <0x1>;
status = "okay";

Can be possible to poweroff without have usb 4 plugged ?

I don't understand the question.

[Titot]

I don't understand the question.

ok no problem forget that. Using the other kernel I post before I can boot to linux but give a lot of errors( like mali dont work or encoder ) and dont work well on the full desktop version.

How I know where if the difference that not make work the 3.10.33 kernel with my MXV box? knowing that kernel 3.10.105 at least start.


Maybe you understand all the things on the dmesg and find something??

You have a problem with the media, you may the system files are also stored on the damaged sector.

ok , But the system run even with that errors.

Why this two kernel :
https://github.com/codesnake/linux-a...g/3.10-16a1118 (mali module work with ump)

https://github.com/arco/linux-amlogic/releases/tag/3.10-9263fa9

works??

Where is the different from the 3.10.33 amlogic kernel ??

I have test buildroot , kernel from amlogic openlinux but not work!

Compare the kernel configuration and source code. Then you will see why.

[balbes150]

Image update Armbian S805 20180112.
Updated kernel to version 3.10.99. Added screen mode 1080p. This mode is enabled by default. To switch to 720p you need to edit first line of script /boot/hdmi.sh. For smooth playback of test video I recommend to reduce the window size of the reproduced video to the size that would have enough system resources for smooth video playback.

Glad to see this project continuing, thanks balbes150. With the advances since my last attempts, I'm anxious to see if it works now. (Lost my last loose uSD card.) Will report on results.

I've downloaded the mint-version and selected mxq first, and than 200-1gb out of dtb. But nothing is running on my OTT TV MXQ 1gb / 4gb. I have waited for minutes, but nothing is going on.
Or is there a mistake.

- i extract the downloaded file
- flash it with usb image tool
- took the card in the box
- start up

Have i loose something?

[balbes150]

On which version of mint you write ? Specify the exact version. This topic is discussed Armbian.

I succeeded in booting the Armbian_5.37_S805_Debian_stretch_3.10.99_icewm_201 80112.img on my mk808b plus but I am stuck in the login screen.
I used root/1234, then it asked me to input my new password which I did
Now I try to log in but nothing happens.. i typed my password and press on Log In but the password clears out.. the login button is greyed out/disabled... so it is stuck on login screen.

any idea?

[yeahman45]

I rewrote my sdcard with win32DiskImager instead of etcher and it seems to work fine now

[yeahman45]

but i don't know how to setup wifi trying to create a wifi network connection but device dropdown is empty

[yeahman45]

I have reflashed the img and put my wifi config in armbian_first_run.txt and re-run setup but still no wifi on my armbian

Module loaded ?
