Orange Pi CM5 Support Patchset for uConsole

Main repo: https://gitflic.ru/project/consensus/uconsole-opi-cm5

Tested to work with Linux kernel 6.16+

What doesn’t work:

  • Audio: “Possible” to add support for “mono”(literraly for one ear);
  • WiFi: Pins are not connected in any form;
  • RTC: There is simply no Real-Time Clock on-board.

Encountered problems that MAY be fixed with hardware mods:

  • 3.3V line is “very noisy” (SYS_3V3 never goes to 0V even if system is off) with this CM;
  • System won’t turn off (Currently not fixed);
  • System won’t reset(and restart) properly 9/10 times (Probably software problem);
  • HDMI Hot Plug circuit is not functioning properly.

Encountered problems that CAN be fixed with hardware mods:

  • System starts by itself (required)
    • Need to change R106 resistor (0402) from 10K to 120-130K
  • No Real-Time Clock (optional)
    • Can be fixed by adding cheap ds1307 I2C RTC clock

Software problems:

  • Hardware video decoding: It exists. But not working. Currently. Or Indefinitely;
  • Kernel 6.16.0: In Krash Desktop Environment 6 “hardware” cursor has broken alpha-channel. Currently fixed in new versions of kernel (or mesa).

Not tested:

  • Modem;
  • Any “Will it work with my %thing%?”.
