Hi friend, I am so sorry about your experience.
Since i don't know what support you may need, coul ...

Hello my friend,

the only thing i need is a stock firmware that has all the functions enabled in the firmware (android)
i have to correct some thing i have an H3 chipset.
but the only thing i see is that i can download firmware that has some partial working wifi and the orther has some usb ports enabled and so on.
why is it not posible to build an image that has all these drivers inside there kernel and enabled ?
if i had the recent sources i build it my own.
but to lack of the support of the recent repo of the H3 i cannot build an up to date firmware.
why are all these chip company's so scared off to share the sources ?
if we can build from recent sources we are only take advantage of the chipset and that is also commercials for the chip maker.

Best regards

Kit

Hello

Received my Pi PC2 today.

Debian server does not boot (wrote with Win32 imager), and Debian XFCE boot but Ethernet does not works. Tested Android to, the Ethernet seems to work (so the Ethernet issue in Debian seems to comes from the OS, not from my SBC as the network seems to be ok with android).

Please update the Debian iso.

Hi friend, what do you mean about that link?

The third post in this thread shows how to fix the ethernet on the debian image

Thank you.

Anyway, an update of the image should be better than having to fix a known issue by ourselves.

So far I am very impressed with this board. Still needs work on the OS but I can say that I prefer it over my Raspberry Pi 3's already. 64 bit is the new standard for SBC's  since 32 bit is going the way of the dinosaur. Thanks for the work, you should and look into joining  Armbian - working with them will be beneficial for everyone.

Mine arrived the other day.
'Failed to execute Default Web Browser' 'input output errors' is what I get.

Any suggestions - use apt to reinstall the web browser?

Have you looked at the PC2 released images in the repository mentioned here?
-> http://www.orangepi.org/orangepi ... amp;fromuid=1090196

If you use the Ubuntu desktop xenial image you can do 'sudo apt-get install firefox' and have everything working ok with browser after that.

The other images need more tweaking to have proper firefox installation, its a bit more difficult.
