<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> Paolo FTW, again https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/4737
<lanefu> hero
<lanefu> i wonder if that helps with like the later production PBP's that were having armbian alergies
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> I think more is needed to get PBP itself in shape (no idea, really) but not-breaking other boards is a win already.
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> The pbp DT is still messed-up, I think.
<Armbian-Discord> <M​anoftheSea> Geez, why am I having so much trouble with it then?
<Armbian-Discord> <M​anoftheSea> The Helios
<Armbian-Discord> <M​anoftheSea> I tried armbian's uboot with 6.1.2, and still no sata disks. Fancontrol was working, though.
<Armbian-Discord> <M​anoftheSea> I gave up on it, went back to armbian 21.0¿ That isn't updating
<Armbian-Discord> <T​onymac32> I haven't updated mine in a looooong time
<Armbian-Discord> <T​onymac32> well, I have 22.02 on it
<Armbian-Discord> <T​onymac32> unknown bootloader age though

<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> I'm getting crazy with Opi4LTS and serial TTY using CH340 on W10.
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> I've tried all "current" img for the board.
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> I've tried 5 different CH340 devices.
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> I've tried to build a "trunk" img from sources.
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> Same results.
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> Incoming text (from Opi4LTS) are fine.
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> Outcoming chars, during editing, are corrupted.
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> Some time a pressed char is not captured, or is captured but return a odd char as eco as in image.
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> Do you have any idea about that ?

<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> I've tried in Linux with kermit but same thing...
<Armbian-Discord> <W​erner> Just pure guess. Maybe due to a flaw a wrong error message is displayed and the reason for rejection is actually that it is too weak? try something like qawsed123
<Armbian-Discord> <T​enkawa> What serial settings are you using and adapter?
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> I followed instructions so:
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> speed = 1500000
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> data bits = 8
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> stop bits = 1
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> parity = None
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> flow control = None
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> The adapter is CH340 HW-597
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> In W10 I've checked that is latest driver (3.5.2019.1)
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> hmm. make sure jumper cables between uart and SBC are the shortest possible
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> Ah connected VCC to 3.3v output in the USB converter
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> nah. don't plug VCC. plug only ground and tx / rx
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> I mean this:
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> I don't know that adapter, but in general, for SBCs you don't need VCC at all; the UART is powered via USB from host, and the SBC powers itself. You just need GND and TX / RX.
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> Only RX|TX|GND to the board
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> yep, try a shorter dupont cable
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> I will cut and try now )
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> otherwise.... try a different UART.... some of the cheaper are really bad
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> (some expensive ones are also bad.)
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> However 1.500.000 baud are an insane speed for a TTY service
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> yep -- but it works, and rockchip is default.
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> Just time to solder and try (speriamo)
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> make sure to also try with UART on a Linux machine. use some sane client like picocom
<Armbian-Discord> <r​pardini> good luck
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> I've to be honest... Linux test was under vmWare... I don't have a pure Linux machine
<Armbian-Discord> <T​enkawa> Yeah you do not want the positive voltage cable connected
<Armbian-Discord> <T​enkawa> and yes I dislike rk's unusual baud rate
<Armbian-Discord> <T​enkawa> I find the adafruit cable for the rpi (the blue one) has been one of the best ones I've ever found
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> Great!
<Armbian-Discord> <s​hineworld> Reducing cable length works perfectly.
<Armbian-Discord> <T​enkawa> Yeah cable length and serial do not mix
<Armbian-Discord> <T​enkawa> heh
