A8 box has a CPU with ~20x the compute power, plus Ethernet. Pi is a small miracle for what it is, but ultimately it has a low-spec ARM chip and and a wireless connection. Your results are entirely as expected.

Put it in the patches subdirectory and re-run the build command. It will clean/patch/rebuild only that package.

aVLB <= this is the patch carried by most distro's

Running "dmesg | paste" will share the whole log (as asked) instead of the tiny bit you think is relevant.

NB: For the handful of people who are advance testing CM3 boards, the FiveNinjas folk requested the Slice2 image to be renamed to Slice3 to avoid user confusion. This means you will need to run "touch /storage/.update/.nocompat" before manually downloading the 7.95.1 beta else the compatibility check run during the update process will fail. It's technically possible for us to add an extra script to negate this, but with literally 5-6 people affected I've decided to finish something else and learn that trick another day

Our 7.0 branch is now closed to all development apart from add-on updates so anything testing/poking you do should be on Krypton builds.

They are different devices for different budgets and user styles (fully spec'd retail boxed product or bare board with accessory options). Both devices are in widespread use among the team, and ultimately our technical direction cares more about the chipset/internals than the manufacturer logo on the box so I'd say both have the same lifespan.

There is no official "team" and thus there is no official "leader" of the team although if you look at GitHub records some of us seem to press the merge button more than others. We operate more like a 60's hippy commune than a hierarchical army of developers

Why do you ask?

Nexbox has the board UPSIDE Down within the casing.
That to me is a bad design due to the fact that Heat Rises.
The casing is also smaller than other boxes.Users often misinterpret the function of cooling to be making their box/device run cool, or as cool as possible, which is never the [sic] case. In reality the main objective is ensuring a safe operating temperature range. As long as cooling holes do this, the objective is reached. Holes on the bottom generally result in lower levels of dust ingression to the device and avoid the opportunity for liquid spill damage so in most consumer products would be preferred to holes/vents on the sides or top.

There are some but the build server uploads to a private location as normally we don't want to distract attention from milhouse builds. He's moved on towards v18 so there's a gap at the moment. Be a little patient and the 7.95.1 beta will be along soon.

openssh: UsePrivilegeSeparation/StrictModes not needed by MilhouseVH · Pull Request #844 · LibreELEC/LibreELEC.tv · GitHub <= this has been resolved properly in LE 8.0 builds (no hacking of user/group with scripts)

Anything that uses autostart.sh is a dirty hack. Their instructions should be updated for 7.0 builds too, and for the same reasons.

no support to users of piracy add-ons and repo's, particularly as the crapware in them frequently causes instability issues. Thanks. -
The problem is probably timing. The instructions on the MSL website should be adjusted so the function script is triggered/managed by systemd to fit into the OS startup and shutdown sequence. Adding dependencies on network being up etc. then become simple.
-
I can't script python either, but I can open the file in a text editor and look for /file/system/paths under /opt and experimentally change them to something under /storage. It's probably not a hard change.

(
sleep 10
amixer -c1 set PCM 100%
)&autostart.sh runs early in the boot sequence but
will background and sleep the command for 10 secs which is normally more than enough time for things to come up. -
I looked at Dataplicity Developer Hub probably briefly and if their install python script is similar they are trying to write things to locations under /opt that don't exist on LE so yes, it will fail. Modify the python script to use somewhere on /storage and it should work okay.
