About locales
please try to run:
  1. sudo apt-get install --reinstall locales
Copy code
After that, run Language support from settings and select your locale, if already selected, deselect (uninstall), then select it again (instal). You can safely uninstal English locale.
Logout, then log in.
If you still don't have your locale, manualy edit /etc/default/locale (as root) and set all to your language, so that il looks like this (of course replace hr_HR with your locale)
  1. LANG="hr_HR.UTF-8"
  2. LANGUAGE="hr"
  3. LC_NUMERIC="hr_HR.UTF-8"
  4. LC_TIME="hr_HR.UTF-8"
  5. LC_MONETARY="hr_HR.UTF-8"
  6. LC_PAPER="hr_HR.UTF-8"
  7. LC_IDENTIFICATION="hr_HR.UTF-8"
  8. LC_NAME="hr_HR.UTF-8"
  9. LC_ADDRESS="hr_HR.UTF-8"
  10. LC_TELEPHONE="hr_HR.UTF-8"
  11. LC_MEASUREMENT="hr_HR.UTF-8"
Copy code
If you want your home directories in your language, remove user-dirs.dirs and user-dirs.locale from .config directory (/home/orangepi/.config), then logout -> login. Delete English named directories.
I've successfully installed the locales for Croatian language.

About 1 min start delay:
I've never had it on OPI-2.

About uImage_OPI-PLUS_NO_BUDGET_COOLING kernel
It has no termal management, so if the CPU overheats, it halts independently of the kernel. You have to have real good cooling.

I have this problem with both Ubuntu Vivid MATE and Ubuntu Vivid XFCE. In an older post you suggest me to do this:
My Ubuntu Mate installation boots to login screen in less then 20 sec. Try to install plymouth-disabler package.
I did it, but no change.
Attached you can find an extract on my dmesg command output, obtained from Ubuntu Vivid XFCE. There is an hang of 92 secs
[    6.245983] RTL871X: module init ret=0
[   98.437909] systemd-logind[580]: New seat seat0.

I hope it can help to understand the problem.

Thanks

Very strange because with Debian it doesn't happen. I have to check the dmesg of the Debian distribution.

Is it simple to create a patch or another kernel to disable the WLan during boot?

Maybe you could try to remove all from /lib/modules/3.4.39/kernel/drivers/net/wireless (backup to some other directory) to see if there are any change.

Bluetooth usb audio will be nice addition but I have not been able to get it to work with jack audio connection kit on any of my other devices yet.

I wanted to try building the kernel with my own tweeks.  So I down loaded and extracted  make_linux.tar.gz.  I edited params.sh.

But instructions say to run create_sdcard but thereis no such file.  I tried running create_image and it seemed to work but did not run kernel configuration menu.  Does this actually compile a new kernel and if so, how to I modify the kernel configuration?

Thanks.
Mark
