[PROBLEM] Usbridge Signature upgraded Linux.

[redstone]

Hi,

I had my Allo Usbridge signature working and i  did something i should have thought about, i checked for an update on Moode System page and started the Feburary update.  After rebooting the update created a fatal error and the player cannot log to the ethernet. - but BRIEFLY CONNECTS TO THE WIRELESS CONECTION before dropping.  I will try tp post the bootup output.  Unfortunately i didnt enable logging unless it is already configured?

Thanks redstone.

Just write a fresh 6.5.2 image to your SD Card. Theres full support for the SIG including it's enhanced Ethernet/USB controller.

Ok thanks, i will do that.  Im a ras pi novice.  Are the directions in the startup guide?

Also i video the bootup , the last good line was “reached target sound card.”

then the first in the error stack is “Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000128”

@redstone

The first step is to download the full 6.5.2 image from moodeaudio.org and flash it to your uSD card.

There's various ways to do this. I prefer using the Belena Etcher program, binaries available from https://www.balena.io/etcher/ for Windows, OS X, and Linux.

Everywhere you look on the InterWEB™ you'll find instructions for using this or other tools to flash the memory card for a Raspberry PI.

The Setup guide then takes you through the rest of the steps.

The error message you cite suggests there's a mismatch between the kernel and one of your drivers. Don't have a UsBridge Signature and won't conjecture how this happened during the upgrade (but I have thoughts!).

Good luck.

Kent

Hi Kent, 

Seems you are right.  I burned the 6.5.2 image and rebooted Eternet-connected only and it booted fine.  However when I went added the wireless Comfast CF-912AC usb dongle it is throwing errors.  This wifi dongle was supported in the December Moode release.  I wonder if there is something that can be changed in the driver setup or maybe i need another wifi dongle?

Just ten days ago @Tim Curtis posted in another thread, "Comfast CF-912AC dual-band WiFi adapter works perfectly with the SIG. The driver for it is included with every moOde release. You also might want to get a 90 deg USB extender."

Maybe he's got some insight here.

Kent

What does "throwing errors" mean?

I am able to boot up fine with the ethernet.  I ran ifconfig and got this:

Ok I am going back to 6.4.0 image since this used to work.

Anyone know where i can get the 6.4.0.iso image? Is this in the 6.4.0 sources folder?

[redstone]

Ok got it working.

I am on 6.5.2 now and i was able to get it working. First i disconnected my D90 Topping Dac. I then added the Comfast wifi Dongle. I had to make the wifi channel unsecured without a password. So not sure if there is a problem withe the password encryption or security of the wifi channel that was causing a problem.
