Hi, I’m quite new to ubuntu. My Rock 5 model b is working, but its fan it is not
Found this: https://github.com/pymumu/fan-control-rock5b
But it throws an error when “make package”. Can somebody please explain for an ubuntu noob how to make the Fan work? Thanks
git clone https://github.com/pymumu/fan-control-rock5b
cd fan-control-rock5b
make package
sudo dpkg -i fan-control*.deb
sudo systemctl enable fan-control
systemctl start fan-control

Looks like you need to do sudo apt install build-essential, as you don’t have gcc installed.
rock@rock-5b:~$ sudo apt install build-essential

I mean, just add whatever it complains about:
sudo apt install build-essential libc6-dev g++
Never ending loop of dependencies, this is why I hate ubuntu…

Seriously I have to downgrade to 2.31-0ubuntu9.7…
Bro just flash it with this one:

user: rock , password : armbian
sudo apt install qtwayland5
I finally did the downgrade with
sudo apt install libc6=2.31-0ubuntu9.7 libc-bin=2.31-0ubuntu9.7
It worked. Fan up and running. Thanks
