@zhao_steven
Can I have link too?
I agree, will release nothing. At least I can build something.
I'm not a moderator here, but I have paid for my board.

Thanks

@zhao_steven I'd need the link to the source code too. I finally received my OPI Plus and now need to compile a custom kernel for it. Agree not to release anything.

@Steven: Ok with me, assuming I can release the results of my local build if needed

Not sure we could and should release binary builds based on source code which is not publicly available. The Linux kernel and u-boot are both released under the Gnu Public Licence.

I only need delay many days. In order to prevent our competitors from copying our resources some delay. All resources are ready soon .

Very nice! Would be cool to see a nice linux distro on the OPI H3 board's

Finally received my Orange Pi Plus !

I am having a bit of trouble getting the wifi interface up with the Debian image though.

root@orangepiplus:~# uname -a
Linux orangepiplus 3.4.39 #7 SMP PREEMPT Thu Apr 16 16:29:28 HKT 2015 armv7l GNU/Linux
root@orangepiplus:~# modprobe 8188eu
[ 3647.561828] 8188eu: disagrees about version of symbol module_layout
ERROR: could not insert '8188eu': Exec format error

This is very likely caused by a mismatch between kernel and modules, e.g. using different compiler versions.

Anyone got wifi working? It's a pity we don't have access to the kernel sources to be able to fix trivial issues such as this one.

@steven I believe you get much more competitive advantage by making the sources available. This helps building up the community around Orange PI and allows us to take care of the software (e.g. creating various ready to use images) whilst you can concentrate on designing and building great hardware.

No Desktop, no GUI, no Graphics, access via SSH ....
and old 3.4.39 kernel

Ah okay. I thought something like this.

Hi,
I notice that with the Debian server image the boot partition has uImage only. There is no uEnv.txt or script.bin. Does anybody have a script.bin for the OPi plus ?

Thanks,
Steven
