Which system do you use? Android, Ubuntu, OOWOW or others?

Ubuntu GNOME installed via OOWOW unto the EMMC.

Which version of system do you use? Khadas official images, self built images, or others?

Khadas Official Images

Please describe your issue below:

On a fresh install, I’m noticing two issues that may be related:

  1. When the system is idling, the fan comes on for several seconds and goes off, every minute or two. (I need to actually time this.)
  2. The Load Kernel Modules systemd startup service fails with exist status 1. It appears to successfully insert (or mark as built in) several modules, and then fails.

(My thought is it’s failing to finish loading the fan controller? Either way, I don’t think it should be failing at all with what sounds like a critical startup service.)

I’ve done sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade. It downlaoded some packages, but the problem remains.

This is my first SBC that isn’t a Raspberry Pi. I’m not really sure how to go about trying to fix this. I would appreciate any suggestions.

Post a console log of your issue below:

It doesn’t matter, just some unused modules, already fixed for next release.

Thanks! Sounds like I don’t need to worry about this.

Re: Next Release– Will I get a notice to update via apt-get, or is that the kind of update that would require a clean install via OOWOW?

Re: Fan On/Off Issue: Sounds like this isn’t related?

No.

what issue? The default FAN mode is auto which means the FAN will turn on when the temperature is high and turn off when the temperature is low.

I should probably break off a separate topic for this, but it just seemed odd to me that it turned on for several seconds while the machine was pretty much at idle, ran for about 30 seconds, and shut down again. I don’t have lm-sensors installed yet, but nothing seemed to be happening that would make the temperature cyclicly spike.

Just to clarify, no clean install required for those sorts of updates?

Sorry, for current image is still test image so if you want to upgrade to other image provided by us you have to reinstall the image.

But we will release a base image with OTA upgrade supported, based on this image for future upgrade you can simple use apt command to upgrade your system no need to reinstall the whole image.
