Install Frigate in Proxmox on the OrangePi5+ (RK3588)
Wednesday, January 24, 2024
I’ve already tried in the past to run some NVRs to monitor surveillance camera on ARM SBC, but the performances were a bit underwhelming : it was too slow, it would miss events while it was recording the previous ones, and the CPU would be maxed out all of the time. But I reconsidered this with the RK3588 since it’s way more powerful than the other SBCs I had the opportunity to use so far.…

Install Armbian and Proxmox on the OrangePi5+ (RK3588)
Wednesday, January 24, 2024
Introduction I’ve been using ARM based SBCs (RaspberryPi, Odroid, Quartz64, NanoPi) as home servers for quite some time now. I use them to host my NAS, backups, Home-Assistant, MQTT broker, Matrix home server… ARM CPUs are becoming more and more powerful, support more and more memory and provide more and more I/Os, which enable new use-cases and functionalities. The Rockchip RK3588 is probably one of the most powerful of such CPU that are available to the general public.…

The state of the QuartzPro64 in February 2023
Monday, February 27, 2023
In the previous article , I detailed all the steps I took to get started with the QuartzPro64, and I ended up with a Linux system running on kernel 6.1 (this commit from neggles’ linux-quartz64 branch ). In this article, I would like to go into more details on the current status of the software in (nearly) mainline Linux. Note that things related to the RK3588 and the QuartzPro64 are moving fast and that the content of this post will probably become obsolete quite soon!…

Getting started with the QuartzPro64
Saturday, February 25, 2023
The QuartzPro64 is an ARM SBC from Pine64 built around the new Rockchip RK3588 CPU. Before going any further, let me remind you that this board is not available to the general public. This is a development board that is only for developers who want to contribute to software development : mainline support in the Linux kernel, Linux distributions, projects,… Pine64 will probably design a board similar to their other SBCs (like the ROCKPro64 ) when the software support will be good enough for general uses.…
