Setup

What you Need

You will need the following to get started with using your Lindenis V5 board:

Windows / Linux PC or MAC with a SD Card Reader connected to the Internet.
Power Supply (PSU) and a micro usb cable. Please make sure to use a PSU rated at +5V@2A.
MicroSD card (4GB or higher capacity) rated 'class 10' or better.
Camera module (recommended).
HDMI cable (optional).
Network Cable connected to the Internet (optional).
Input device(s) such as: keyboard, mouse, etc.

Installation

Download the image

Download the image from FTP server with user 'ftp' (password: lindeni).
For China mainland users, you can also download the images from Baidu Netdisk. The key code is "vcss".

Note that there are two type images here. Make sure you download the right one.

For-SDCard: the image can be written to the SD card
For-eMMC: the image can be written to the eMMC (you should purchase a eMMC module firstly)

Writing an image to the SD card

Writing the image to MicroSD Card by Etcher is recommended.

Using a computer with an MicroSD Card reader.
Visit etcher.io and download and install the Etcher SD card image utility.
Run Etcher and select the image you downloaded.
Select the SD card drive. Note that the software may have already selected the right drive.
Finally, click Flash to transfer the image to the MicroSD Card. You'll see a progress bar that tells you how much is left to do. Once complete, the utility will automatically eject/unmount the SD card so it's safe to remove it from the computer.

Now that you have an operating system. You can slot your SD card into your SBC and connect the power. Then you will boot directly to the desktop environment.

If you want to add service in sdk, you should modify "debain/mk-rootfs-stretch.sh" as follow:

diff --git a/mk-rootfs-stretch.sh b/mk-rootfs-stretch.sh
index 75dd3ce..c46d605 100755

the imx317 sensor driver code

kernel/drivers/media/platform/sunxi-vin/modules/sensor/imx317_mipi.c

if you want to support a new sensor, you can add the driver code in this path, and modify the Makefile and Kconfig like imx317. Of course you should config the sys_config.fex first.

Insmod the sensor module

1.cp the driver ko to debian/target/lib/modules/4.4.55+/

2.replace the imx317_mipi with the new sensor ko's name in this file

device/eagle/rootfs/etc/modules-load.d/mpp.conf

3.build the sdk

User Interfaces

1.Use the MPP interfaces. see the MPP Interface Usage page 20-53,

The demo code is here sample_virvi2vo

2.Use the /dev/videoX directly, you can see the demo in Camera Driver Guide

ISP Tuning

Allwinner V5 ISP Tuning Tool

Download and extract to a local folder (note: Windows only).
Upgrade your Linbian OS to 20181016 or later.
Please refer to the documents in docs folder for usage.

Display Config

Because of the limitation that there is one display engine module in V5, V5 board can not support dual-display.

The default display device of the SDK and the image on FTP server is HDMI(1080p).

If you have download the image from FTP server, and burn it into SD card or eMMC, you can switch the display device follow these steps:

Connect serial to control the board

Firstly, you should connect the board's UART0 to computer through a serial-USB cable so that you can send commands to the board through a PC serial software like Putty.

After you connected successfully, you will see the log show on the PC serial software like this:

Enter U-boot command mode

Power on and press any key within 1s when you see the message below, then you can enter u-boot command mode.

Under this mode, you can modify the kernel devices tree by FDT tools in u-boot.

Change display device configuration with FDT tool

Input the follow command to set display device to LCD (following this guide to connect LCD panel) or HDMI (1080p):

LCD:

fdt set boot_disp output_type <0x01>;
fdt set boot_disp output_mode <0x04>;
fdt set disp screen0_output_type <0x01>;
fdt set disp screen0_output_mode <0x04>;
fdt save;
reset;

HDMI (1080p):

fdt set boot_disp output_type <0x00>;
fdt set boot_disp output_mode <0x00>;
fdt set disp screen0_output_type <0x03>;
fdt set disp screen0_output_mode <0x0a>;
fdt save;
reset;

Change X11 configuration

After you change the display device, you should also tell the X11. Log in the system and modify the X11 configuration like this:

LCD:

ai@linbian:~$ cd /etc/X11/
ai@linbian:/etc/X11$ sudo ln -sf ./conf.d/xorg_lcd.conf ./xorg.conf
ai@linbian:/etc/X11$ ls -l xorg.conf
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 Oct 10 10:41 xorg.conf -> ./conf.d/xorg_lcd.conf
ai@linbian:/etc/X11$ sudo systemctl restart lightdm

HDMI (1080p):

ai@linbian:~$ cd /etc/X11/
ai@linbian:/etc/X11$ sudo ln -sf ./conf.d/xorg_hdmi.conf ./xorg.conf
ai@linbian:/etc/X11$ ls -l xorg.conf
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Oct 10 10:46 xorg.conf -> ./conf.d/xorg_hdmi.conf
ai@linbian:/etc/X11$ sudo systemctl restart lightdm

CTP Config

After you connected the CTP panel to the board (see the guide), insmod its driver like this:

sudo insmod /lib/modules/4.4.55+/gt9xx_ts.ko

Notice : The CTP driver in the image on FTP server is not the latest version, you should download our SDK and compile the image by yourself to confirm CTP work well.

External Storage Config

Localisation

Remote Access

IP address

Using the board with a display

Using the terminal (open a Terminal window from the desktop), simply type hostname -I which will reveal your board IP address.

Using the board without a display

Router Device List

In a web browser navigate to your router's IP address e.g. http://192.168.3.1, which is usually printed on a label on your router; this will take you to a control panel. Then log in using your credentials, which is usually also printed on the router or sent to you in the accompanying paperwork. Browse to the list of connected devices or similar (all routers are different), and you should see some devices you recognise. Some devices are detected as PCs, tablets, phones, printers, etc. so you should recognise some and rule them out to figure out which is your board. Also note the connection type; if your board is connected with a wire there should be fewer devices to choose from.

Using your smartphone

The Fing app is a free network scanner for smartphones. It is available for Android and iOS.

Your phone and your board have to be on the same network, so connect your phone to the correct wireless network.

When you open the Fing app, touch the refresh button in the upper right-hand corner of the screen. After a few seconds you will get a list with all the devices connected to your network.

VNC

Remote access to the board's graphical interface, viewed in a window on another computer.

Installing VNC server

On your board, run the following commands to install the latest version of VNC server.

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install tightvncserver

Enabling VNC server

Enable VNC Server at the command line using:

$ vncpasswd
$ tightvncserver

Enabling VNC server autostart on boot

Create a file in /etc/init.d/, eg. tightvncserver.

$ sudo vi /etc/init.d/tightvncserver

Content is as follows:

#!/bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides:          tightvncserver
# Required-Start:    $local_fs
# Required-Stop:     $local_fs
# Default-Start:     2 3 4 5
# Default-Stop:      0 1 6
# Short-Description: Start/stop tightvncserver
### END INIT INFO

### Customize this entry
# Set the USER variable to the name of the user to start tightvncserver under
export USER='ai'
### End customization required

eval cd ~$USER

case "$1" in
  start)
    su $USER -c '/usr/bin/tightvncserver -depth 16 -geometry 800x600 :1'
    echo "Starting TightVNC server for $USER "
    ;;
  stop)
    su $USER -c '/usr/bin/tightvncserver -kill :1'
    echo "Tightvncserver stopped"
    ;;
  *)
    echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/tightvncserver {start|stop}"
    exit 1
    ;;
esac
exit 0

Grant permission to execute the file

$ sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/tightvncserver

Update boot list

sudo update-rc.d tightvncserver defaults

Connecting to your board with VNC Viewer

On your board use these instructions to discover your private IP address.
On the device you'll use to take control, download VNC Viewer. For best results, use the compatible app from RealVNC.
Enter your board's private IP address into VNC Viewer:

SSH

Access the command line of the board from another computer. SSH server is enabled by default on Linbian.

Set up your connection

Make sure your board is properly set up and connected. Use these instructions to discover your private IP address.

Set up your client

SSH is built into Linux distributions and Mac OS. For Windows and mobile devices, third-party SSH clients are available.

Using Linux or Mac OS

To connect to your board from a different computer, copy and paste the following command into the terminal window but replace <IP> with the IP address of the board.

$ ssh ai@<IP>

If you receive a connection timed out error it is likely that you have entered the wrong IP address for the board.

When the connection works you will see a security/authenticity warning. Type yes to continue. You will only see this warning the first time you connect.

Next you will be prompted for the password for the ai login: the default password on Linbian is lindeni. For security reasons it is highly recommended to change the default password on the board. You should now be able to see the board prompt, which will be identical to the one found on the board itself.

Using Windows

You may need to download an SSH client. The most commonly used client is called PuTTY and can be downloaded from here.

Add your board as a host

Type the IP address of the board into the Host Name field and click the Open button.

Connect

When the connection works you will see the security warning shown below. You can safely ignore it, and click the Yes button. You will only see this warning the first time PuTTY connects to a board that it has not seen before.

You will now see the usual login prompt. Log in with username ai and password lindeni. You should now have the board prompt which will be identical to the one found on the board itself.

SCP

Copy files between your board and another computer using SCP (Secure Copy Protocol).

Copying files to your board

Copy the file file.txt from your computer to the ai user's home folder of your board at the IP address 192.168.3.136 with the following command:

$ scp file.txt ai@192.168.3.136:~/

Copying files from your board

Copy the file file.txt from your board to the current directory on your other computer.

$ scp ai@192.168.3.136:~/file.txt .

Samba

Sharing folders to Windows-based devices.

Installing Samba

The following commmands will install all the required components for using Samba as a server or a client.

$ sudo apt-get install samba samba-common-bin smbclient

Sharing user home folder for use by windows

Adding user to Samba.

$ sudo smbpasswd -a ai

Editing Samba configuration file to tell Samba to share the user home folder.

$ sudo vim /etc/samba/smb.conf

At the end of the file, add the following to share the folder, giving the remote user read/write permissions:

[ai]
    path = /home/ai/
    available = yes
    valid users = ai
    read only = no
    browsable = yes
    public = yes
    writable = yes
