Can you use PipeWire instead of PulseAudio?
I really only have experience with Gentoo on x86_64, and had all sorts of audio issues with PA, but switching to PW fixed everything.

I want to know what desktop environment is this with such a low memory footprint
我想知道内存占用这么低的桌面环境是什么
Same symptom as overwriting the rootfs with /dev/uramdom. Everything slows down and then the install freezes/crashes (I sometimes do this for fun when phasing out server hardware).
I would believe you experienced a broken eMMC module where the flash controller did weird things. Most probably neither related to board nor software.

@willy, may you check what kind of numbers you get with iperf3 (with PC as server and then with Rock5 as server)?

Not sure which Desktop you are referring to but 290MB of total used memory is from CLI (no Desktop). The Desktop i have used is xfce4 with X11. Wayland seems to be twice faster than X11 for the hw accel but Gnome and Kde use a lot of memory, maybe twice as of xfce4.
I have a new 64GB eMMC installed and will rebuild everything. If that is what happened (and looks like), i will update here.
Building kernel natively … Pass OK
Ambient Temp… 12 ºC
Hm, completely forgot about this one.
root@rock-5b:/mnt/md127# cat /sys/module/pcie_aspm/parameters/policy [default] performance powersave powersupersave
Not like it helped in this case, but maybe it will solve my another problem
Sooo, you are not gonna cool the memory modules or power module or at least use fan cooler? You just use small passive heatsink for 12W cpu, and receive 85 degree on CPU\GPU temp. HMMMM, totally not overheat
For example - that is my setup for building kernel. And I still get 61 degree on it.

I measured 2.35 Gbps even with iperf3 pinned to a little core as such I would propose to repeat the test this time still with the PC as server and using iperf3 -R -c 192.168.1.38 on Rock 5B. This way retransmits are reported. If there are plenty of them I would check/replace the cable (TX/RX use different pairs).
Also removing the switch would be an idea. Just install avahi-autoipd avahi-daemon prior to this and access the other host not via an IP address but by it’s name (if your PC’s hostname is foobar then it can be accessed as foobar.local).

I did not expect it would heat up like that, but it was one-time only to make sure eMMC would survive. I am glad it survived.
Ok, I think VCore is fixed.

Welp, switched from windows to ubuntu. 14k retransmission surely explain why speed so low. I guess the problem with my setup
Not really possible, since I don’t have any 2.5G nic with me. That’s why I was asking for results from someone else.
Yes. So to be clear your PC has a 10GbE NIC and your switch is Nbase-T capable?
2.35 Gbit/sec in both directions even on a little core.
BTW: RealTek RTL8156B USB3 dongles work pretty well. With macOS even RTL8156 (without the B) but numerous people report problems with Linux (no idea about Windows, almost no use for this OS).
But as usual: ‘buy cheap, buy twice’.
Yes, that’s correct. I guess the transceiver is to blame here. Since I get the same picture even if I force it to 1G with PC to PC. Mikrotik with S+RJ10 is not best choice for 2.5G Ethernet
This is great news. Means its getting closer for us that pre-ordered months and months ago. Looking forward to the new chip and retiring my RK3399’s
More Ethernet basics (but I’ll leave that up to @willy to explain).
Anyway: it’s not an Rock 5B / RTL8125BG issue.
BTW: the amount of feedback from Radxa is overwhelming. But maybe all the important stuff happens in some closed/hidden Discord channel and they (together with those great Armbian guys babbling in their armbian-devel Discord crap channel that is not logged anywhere) simply laugh about everything that happens here ‘in the open’?
Yes, it’s not.
Btw, there should be link towards this closed channel somewhere?
