USB isn't supported as boot device by SoC. You have to use SD card as intermediate solution.

GPU frequency scaling is still not enabled on LE11 for TX6...
-
The RTL8821 driver has been in the nightlies for quite a while.
Generic yes, RPi, for example, no.
-
LE11 will keep 6.1 kernel, but master branch, what will eventually become LE12, will see kernel updates. Usually we are pretty quick to update, but 6.2 update stalled a bit (at least I have issue with network on OPi3 LTS board with 6.2).
Anyway, RTW88 USB and, for some boards, SDIO patches were backported to 6.1 and are present in LE11. Which board do you use?
-
I believe the main reason it is in Allwinner builds is because some of the boards are using the SDIO-based rtw88 chips.
That's true. However, patches are placed in such way, that driver is present in every project, except Amlogic and RPi. They use different kernel source.
-
Anyone can, but there is very limited documentation within build system. There is no other way than to "dig in" build system and learn by trial & error.
Main reason why LE team decided not to add each and every wifi driver to official image is because it's annoying to keep these wifi drivers buildable and working across different kernel versions. If you have luck, someone already published driver sources for currently used kernel version and all you need to do is just write package.mk file which points to those sources. If not, you have to also create patches to fix build and/or working issues.

No, I very much prefer public conversation. PMs are mainly for rare cases, like sharing video samples (some people are afraid of this due to copyrights), for example.

eh, it's blkid

That error usually indicates that your partition UUID doesn't match. Why does that happen I can't say, I don't use LE SD creator. I use dd on Linux, which writes image 1:1 on SD card and I never had any issue with it, although it's pretty dumb tool (thus not ideal) and it doesn't verify if everything has been written correctly. In any case, you can override UUID in extlinux.conf. Before you do that, get current UUID by executing "lsblk" in that emergency console. Check for ext4 partition.
While I didn't test LE11 final on OPi3 LTS, I tested clean install of beta and it worked as expected. I don't have any reason to doubt final release. Nothing changed in that regard.
EDIT: eMMC install script takes care for UUID update. So once you're able to boot SD image, installation to eMMC should be straightforward and without issues. Note that this means you'll lose everything there. No backups are made.
-
Making unofficial/community images with extra wifi drivers is of course possible, but someone has to create package for those drivers...
-
SD card image must be written 1:1. If you start making your own partitions and stuff, IDs won't match and you'll get exactly the problems you have. FYI, there should be 2 partitions, one FAT32 and another ext4. Later one is just 32 MiB at first and it's resized at boot to cover whole card.
Automatically installing OS on eMMC would be extremely bad. It destroys all data on it. If you want to do that, call "install2emmc" command from ssh.

Occasionally, U-Boot mis-detects amount of RAM on OPi 3 LTS. It's known issue, but no explanation for it yet. Just reboot.
-
One change between LE10 and LE11, which is most likely important, is that LE11 switched from wpa_supplicant to iwd.
-
Hi all, i have a device with wifi rlt8189es/fs, it worked fine on libreelec 10 but on 11 it disappeared.
If that's true, then you used custom/community build image and not official one.
-
I see that you were the author of the armbian orange pi zero patch
Not really. If anything, then someone ported my patch to Armbian.
-
I'm running 10.0.4.
Patches are for LE11.

Integrated IR receiver is more than capable handling most if not any IR remote. All you need is correct keymap. Chances are that there is already working keymap that just need enabling. Note, I'm far from being expert in this field, so I can't give you any better explanation that it's already on wiki.
Of course it's possible to wake up or power on board via IR. However, protocol and key number must be selected at build time (limitation of power management firmware.) Due to that fact, default protocol and button on boards which come without remote (including OrangePi 3 LTS) is RC9 MCE power button. This combination was selected due to popularity of windows media center remotes. If you want to customize this, you have to build your own image with adjusted configuration. But good news is that usual LE updates don't update U-Boot, which, among others, contains power management firmware and is responsible for loading it. So you have to do this only once.
Any power button, be it on board or on IR remote, only brings up power menu in Kodi. I'm not aware of any direct way to power it down or sleep with one press.
Note, other power up options are power button on board and HDMI CEC (although CEC might not work reliably - still under development.)

LE already supports CVBS output on H2+, H3 and H5, it's just not enabled by default. That can be done by enabling appropriate DT TVE overlay in extlinux.conf. Currently overlays for enabling TVE exists for H3 and H5, but it would be trivial to add overlay for H2+ too. Note, H2+ is not officially supported in LE.
