I try to use Buster minimal 5.9.y
It is booting but no USB host is recognised.
lsusb -t is empty
Have someone 5.9 working with USB host ?

As of 30.11, no USB with Buster 5.9.11

Thanks for the info and the link. Looking forward to your test and hope that they will be successful.
I need a newer version because of USB Audio-2.0 gadget supporting now a sync endpoint. Without that Windows 10 will refuse to enumerate the driver, so that only UAC1 is working.
Btw. I have read that someone is asked about 8ch. I got it working.

FYI: On slarm64, kernel 5.9.6 also had no USB support for Rock Pi S, but the maintainer added it to kernel 5.9.12. See https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-arm-108/rock-pi-s-usb-a-port-not-working-4175686085/#post6191077

Trying

No USB. lsusb is empty

21.02.0-trunk.63
not booting. device tree is missing

Known problem and not exactly a problem - nightly builds are only a developers support. Sorry, absolutely no time to do anything about in next couple of weeks, perhaps months. https://www.armbian.com/get-involved Some solutions / patches are scattered around and they need to be brought in, adjust and tested, …

Fixed:


but some additional optional fine tuning could be done.
