do you know by any chance if the wifi module from onyx boox is as accessible as the one from the pine?
No. What does "accessible" mean?

When you search for "desolder chip", then you'll find something like that:

Isnt a normal tech-repair shop able to help me in this regards when it comes do removing the wifi module?
Depends on the shop, I never did that. They are probably able to try the software solution first, as mentioned by chewitt .

It would be easier to disable the SDIO/BT module through device-tree changes (disable the sdio node, disable the BT node)...
Probably impossible for the thread starter, and needs further explanations.
...than to physically modify the board by unsoldering chips, although that could also be done if you have the tools/skills.
Doable for beginners, but it needs a heat gun, and watching a YT tutorial. However, I would start with the WiFi antenna, and see what the results are.
-
chewitt Thanks, then my internet source was wrong.

The WiFi module is part of the RK3566 SoC, so not removable. A WiFi module is usually connected to an antenna, which you'll probably find somewhere in your tablet. Disconnecting or removing the antenna can reduce power consumption.

... guess it's time to retire this rather old box...
You could try GParted to repair it. This tool is capable of leaving bad blocks out during formatting, so the drive would act like a clean one afterwards.

Seems like your USB drive is broken:

Wow, showcase! Consider to install MPD with DSD for super premium experience:
Raspberry Pi 4 + LibreElec + Music Player Daemon + WavPack DSD
Hello!
I installed LibreElec 9.95.1 and mpd (as service addon) and found that when playing WavPack DSD files with a samplerate of more than 384 kHz, the sound is very interrupted. A search on the Internet did not give anything, the mpd settings also did not bring any result. And then I accidentally looked into:
mpd -V
— and found that it was built without native support for the WavPack format, that is, it decodes it using ffmpeg. And ffmpeg DOES NOT RECOGNIZE DSD compressed with WavPack.
In…

Thanks for the information.
Is Nvidia card is the main problem here? If so, would switching to an NUC or another device (for example pii) result in LibreELECT being able to do it (end to end true Dolby Vision passthrough, that is)?
No. Every DV device needs a payed license. You have to buy an official DV device, like Nvidia Shield, Apple Mac mini M4 etc.
-
Thanks. I don't think it's possible that way, because HDMI connection will always add video. Buy a USB sound card or audio interface,
-
Which hardware do you use (RPi and touchscreen)?

The YT add-on has its own cache management. That means it's an add-on problem with cache management, not an LE problem.
To only delete YT cache, delete the SQLite cache DBs inside of /storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.video.youtube/HEX_STRING_WITH_SOME_ID.

Not sure if this is related to what you saw in the log.

The WLAN driver shows some errors in the crash log. So try with Ethernet, if you can (deactivate WiFi on the LE settings).
-
Yeah, it's been working for several years, and was on 12.0.2. It was one of the devices listed on Mr. Chromebox's page and I used his script to flash the firmware & install LibreELEC.
Do you use the same BIOS settings in both boxes?
-
How do you explain it working on 12.0 then ???
Maybe the GPU is not supported by newer kernels, and older kernels had an unofficial driver.
scaesare Can you compare the BIOS options of the working and non-working box? Maybe that's all it needs for booting LE.
-
I think your GPU is not supported on any Linux:
It's an ASUS Chromebox CN 60 as described HERE.
QuoteLinux GPU Support : No
