<DC-IRC> [Discord] <vietlubu> Hi guys, does armbian minimal/server version include GPU driver? I want to using i3 or hyprland from a server version, without gnome 😄

<DC-IRC> [Discord] <misty_cloud_> @boogieboogieboogie Hey I wanted to ask since you made the RKDDR tool, how I could unbrick my orange pi 5 ultra. I think i set my ram timings too high and i don't understand what u meant by "write your idblock in backups"
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <misty_cloud_> welp i chose to do a fresh install, didn't lose much in progress
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <mecoblock> you were warned so many times 😭

<DC-IRC> [Discord] <vietlubu> hi guys, em trying to build armbian for my orange pi 5 ultra. im using this command:
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <vietlubu> ```
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <vietlubu> ./compile.sh BOARD=orangepi5-ultra BRANCH=current RELEASE=noble BUILD_MINIMAL=no BUILD_DESKTOP=yes KERNEL_CONFIGURE=no
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <vietlubu> ```
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <vietlubu> Build success but after boot on my board HDMI output now working, but can access by ssh from other pc. 🤣
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> expected. `current`'s support for rk3588 is basic at most and will not receive any further enhancements in that matter since it is an LTS kernel which receives fixes only. Try `vendor` for close to full functionality or `edge` for bleeding edge mainline. May or may not work, we don't know, its not an officially supported board
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <misty_cloud_> Hahahaha it was ram OCing that got me lol
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <misty_cloud_> to be fair it wasn't CPU ocing but hey, lesson learned the hard way lol.
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> It will take another few years until there are ARM cpus out there where it might be actually worth it tryint to overclock. But for now it is not IMHO. The risk of breaking things is too great in comparison to the negligible performance gains.
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <misty_cloud_> Yeah understandable. Though again, i was following the guide to overclock the ram, not the cpu. I am using the 2.4ghz overlay as well. Managed to unbrick it with rkdev tool but i gotta start from 0, which now that i have learned from you guys, i can get it up faster.
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <misty_cloud_> Yeah understandable. Though again, i was following the guide to overclock the ram, not the cpu, and must have followed it badly lol. I am using the 2.4ghz overlay as well. Managed to unbrick it with rkdev tool but i gotta start from 0, which now that i have learned from you guys, i can get it up faster.
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <Werner> I think you need to check the memory chips beforehand if they are capable of doing faster clocks. Even though board is always the same, manufacturs tend to randomly swap chips to similar ones w/o documentation. This is especially bad for so called tvboxes
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <menu> datasheets for the chips often don't indicate if they'll tolerate an OC, unfortunately there is an awful lot of trial and error
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <vietlubu> yes, you right, edge is working 😄
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <misty_cloud_> Aaah yes, the one thing i didn't do LOL thanks for reminding me
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <mecoblock> I wrote the sbcwiki guide for a reason lol
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <misty_cloud_> Well, that's what happens when you get lazy after sticking a heat sink on the ram chip, and don't want to remove it
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <misty_cloud_> :lol:
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <mecoblock> I feel like there has to be a way to read out the model number in linux too.. 💀
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> Does the rk3588 support 16k address space for the kernel, or is the 4k still the best ?
_whitelogger has joined #armbian-rockchip
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <mecoblock> You should just be able to just build a 16k kernel afaik
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> Would it make sense though? The rpi5's hardware apparently works better with the 16k
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <mecoblock> Classic server workloads and java programs are supposed to run better at 16k or even 64k. https://www.phoronix.com/review/ampereone-64k-linux611
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <vietlubu> Im testing GPU on my orange pi 5 ultra. just around 60 fps, Im not sure is good or not? :ThinkO_O:
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <vietlubu> ```
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <vietlubu> glxgears
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <vietlubu> Running synchronized to the vertical refresh. The framerate should be
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <vietlubu> approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate.
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <vietlubu> 313 frames in 5.0 seconds = 62.398 FPS
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <vietlubu> 210 frames in 5.0 seconds = 41.723 FPS
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <vietlubu> ```
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <menu> this clearly says its vsync, so won't exceed the refresh rate of the monitor by much
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <vietlubu> you right, turn off vsync and I got 120 fps, is it ok?
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <vietlubu> glmark2 is result 60-80 fps
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <vietlubu> glmark2 is result 60-80 fps. 120 for texture and shading
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> Weird I know I selected 16k for the kernel, when i ran the compile, but it still shows 4k
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> Weird I know I selected 16k for the kernel, when i ran the compile, but it still shows 4k when booted
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <mecoblock> there is a known bug that should affect multiple (maybe even all) rockchip devices where rkspi.img in the uboot.deb for the SPI to boot via NVMe is broken. It is caused by the noble docker base image instead of using the jammy one. If anyone can help debug it would be nice
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <mecoblock> as installing to nvme rn ends up in a not booting board
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <mecoblock> manually flashing the spi with an spi image made from jammy makes it boot again in the meantime
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> Okay guess I am trying 64k
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <dams0869> I tried to overclock a little by adding the nodes in the dtb file, a55 @ 2ghz and a76 @2.6ghz, but it seemed less fluid than with the basic frequencies, so I went back to it.
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> Okay not sure what I am doing wrong, my config says CONFIG_ARM64_64K_PAGES=y
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> But grep PAGE_SIZE /boot/config-$(uname -r)
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> shows CONFIG_PAGE_SIZE_4KB=y once I boot to this image :/
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <boogieboogieboogie> @misty_cloud_ you need to rewrite your spi image in maskrom mode, i think you recovered your board right, didnt follow long messages in between
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <boogieboogieboogie> If depending on thd device type you dont hace a dedicated spi flash, you can rewrite the idblock with given offsets, you can check https://forum.radxa.com/t/flash-spi-and-spl-on-rock5b-questions-caveat-spl-is-never-flashed/26800/8?u=boogiepop for details
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> Does look like the opi5 ultra will boot with 64k
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> well looks like 16k can boot, but then there is no networking
<DC-IRC> [Discord] <bugzbanger> But I fried my usb-UART by accident, so can't see why
