What exactly "kernel headers problem" do you have ?

Loboris,
I think that's referring to lymon's response (post #616) to my post (#615) back on page 62 in response to some weird linking within the /lib/modules/3.4.39/ directory:

Cores (and Loboris),
I'm having issues with a Realtek driver as well. Just installed the OrangePi ...

You will need kernel headers (this is the 'build' error you are getting) or build the kernel from source and include the drivers (if not already included in the kernel source tree)

loboris kernel source tree can be found here: https://github.com/loboris/OrangePI-Kernel
(but it seems to have 'kernel-panic' problems once compiled)

you can try this to lock the cpu to max freq:

echo performance > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpu ...

Thanks! That worked like a charm.

@loboris,
/lib/modules/3.4.39/build points to /home/LoBo2_Razno/OrangePI/kernel_3.4.9/linux-3.4

I am trying to compile a wifi driver that does
make -C /lib/modules/3.4.39/build SUBDIRS=/home/orangepi/DPO_RT5572_LinuxSTA_2.6.1.3_20121022/os/linux modules

so it obviously doesn't work on my machine. Where should the link point and what should be in the directory it points to?

@loboris,
/lib/modules/3.4.39/build points to /home/LoBo2_Razno/OrangePI/kernel_3.4.9/linux-3.4

/lib/modules/3.4.39/build symbolic link is created during the kernel build and it points to the linux kernel source root directory.
You can clone my github repo, there will be the linux-3.4 directory. You can create new /lib/modules/3.4.39/build pointing to that directory.

You can use build_mali_driver.sh script as an example how to build only specific modules.

Your Ubuntu distro for Orange Pi PC works great except the analog audio from the AV/CBVS jack is n ...

Same with me.  I spent a decent amount of time today trying to get it to work.  I also popped on a USB audio device (that works fine on my Raspberry Pi with Ubuntu) and it also did not work.  The OS found it when I looked for attached usb devices, but no luck with it showing up in audio settings within pulseaudio.  Messed around with the settings a bit, but being a novice I did not get very far.  Not sure why usb audio does not work, it seems it should.
I was hoping to use this with Mopidy (which I got to work great on Ubuntu over HDMI audio), but stuck with either of the builds at the moment.  Need that to work over the analog audio or usb audio to plug in to some speakers.  Didn't even try to start setting up Mopidy on the Lubuntu build since I was smart enough this time to test the audio first!

It would be great if anyone had any ideas.  I went to try the Lubuntu build off the Orange Pi PC resourses section on the home page, but that was a bust.  Google Drive didn't work and the other cloud service was in Chinese.

Thanks!

Brad

What exactly "kernel headers problem" do you have ?

in particular when i use the command: apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
i have these errors:
E: Unable to locate package linux-headers-3.4.39

E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'linux-headers-3.4.39'

so I can't install external driver for my wifi dongle

Loboris,

You are one of the main kernel builder for OPI_H3, and I'd like to have your opinion on a GPIO issue.

Is adapting the Raspberry-BCM style gpio numbering a good idea or does it not matter at all?

Thanx in advance

I have OPI-2 and i try
- OrangePI_Ubuntu_Vivid_Mate.img
- OrangePI_Jessie_Xfce.img
- Fedora22_Mate.img

Audio don't work in any of them

I use the "scriptbin_kernel_test" copy script.bin and uImage in FAT partition, copy lib and run command "depmod -a"

I think all work except audio, some idea

Thanks for your awesome job
