Oh , our mistakes, for ubuntu 16.04 use systemd instead of upstart. userspace firmware loading not ...

Hi Jerry,

Would you please help to check if we still need brcmfmac4339-sdio.bin for wifi firmware?

make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'firmware/brcm/brcmfmac4339-sdio.bin', needed by 'firmware/brcm/brcmfmac4339-sdio.bin.gen.o'.  Stop.
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
  MK_FW   firmware/brcm/brcmfmac4339-sdio.bin.gen.S
Makefile:867: recipe for target 'firmware' failed
make: *** [firmware] Error 2

Thanks a lot.

You could also try the Debian 8 image for the MiQi SBC on the Firefly board.
The current OS image from Benn Huang and mqmaker is based on kernel 4.4 and offers both 2D and 3D GPU acceleration, VPU acceleration for H.264 is also working via gstreamer. Currently I installed the beautiful Mate Desktop which works really well.

hi peba, this looks very interesting as id like to be running mainline kernel on this board, can you confirm what hardware is working after flashing this MiQi firmware. for example does bluetooth and wifi work at all?

Hi Aussie John, I do not know what will work on the firefly when you flash the miqi image on it. I do not own a firefly board so I can't test. Why not also buy a MiQi board ? It should not take too long until the firefly developers will provide an updated image with all drivers needed for the firefly board. Rockchip has decided to actively support Linux Distributions (Debian from linaro) on its SOC's like the RK3288. Read about the Rockchip toolbox here:

Hello!

I know it's an beta version, but I flashed the image on my Firefly RK3288 Plus and I got this two issues:

1. The HDMI signal turns off and on randlomly in such a way that the monitor turns off and on for about a second (it does not matter if I have X running or not).
2. I can't get keyboard or mouse to work at all.

Are this know problems?

Best Regards
/ Rasmus

Hello!

Yes, here are the logs:

dmesg  http://pastebin.com/sp30EfF1
syslog http://pastebin.com/KYx6Sp8v
(quite long, expires 1 month from now)

kern.log https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/90981951/kern.log
(super long, 2.6MB in size)

There is clearly something wrong with the graphics, I get this line often: "[drm:drm_mode_legacy_fb_format] *ERROR* bad bpp, assuming x8r8g8b8 pixel format", if it has to do with my setup (e.g. the TV I have connected the HDMI to, or anything else I don't know)

I hope anyone can find the problem.

Thanks!

Best Regards

Hi
the HDMI problem :  please post the X11 log :"cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log" after the HDMI turn off and on.
the keyboard problem: connect the keyboard after the os is ready. then post the kernel log .
and use the cmd "lsusb" to see the usb devices.

Hello isle!

lsusb finds the device, this line:
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 046d:c52b Logitech, Inc. Unifying Receiver

Since it's much smoother with dropbox then pastebin, here's a link to Xorg.0.log.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/90981951/Xorg.0.log

But I think that the framebuffer driver is to blame since even if I don't even start the X11 environment it's still turning off and on.

Hi  
I find this from your Xorg.0,log
[    14.025] (EE) ARMSOC(0): Output HDMI-1 enabled but has no modes
[    14.025] (EE) ARMSOC(0): ERROR: xf86 Initial Configuration failed
[    14.025] (EE) ARMSOC(0): ERROR: Cannot get KMS resources

It is so strange ,we have never met before.
so ,as i think, the os try to find the best mode in your monitor by turn off and on.
