Hi, The download links are not working (6.13.0-rc7-build-20250119). Could you please check?
Sorry, core has already been uploaded, xfce within half an hour.

It’s great to see you actively developing this system!
The links are now working, and I’ve successfully installed the 20250119 core version on my Banana Pi F3.
The command echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/boost works perfectly, but when I try to run
echo 1800000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy0/scaling_setspeed, I get the error:
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument.
Running cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy0/scaling_available_frequencies returns:
614400 819000 1000000 1228800 1600000.
I’d like to set the CPU to 1.8 GHz. How can I achieve this?
so, I gave incomplete information, I’m correcting it
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/boost
echo userspace > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy0/scaling_governor
echo 1800000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy0/scaling_setspeed

Just out of curiosity: Would it be possible to oveclock (in a similar way) a stock Bianbu installation?
yes, changing the kernel.
Fooo, nice 
Can I please ask you to elaborate a bit more on the topic? Not sure how the boot process work on BPI-f3. Nor do I know which specific changes there are present between ‘your’ kernel and stock Bianbu kernel…
(Yes, yes, I’m aware that I could (and probably should) spend the next whole month studying the whole thing, but I’m pressed for other things too… )
take kernel-k1#236.6.72-1.pkg.tar.gz unpack move /lib to /lib rename the files in the unpacked /boot folder similarly to the existing /boot and move them there.
You are awesome! It works very nicely, thank you 
Just a sidenote: There is no sound device present in the system. Would it be compliated to make it work?

need to add module loading:
modprobe spacemit_card
modprobe spacemit_i2s
modprobe spacemit_pcm
modprobe snd_soc_es8323
cat /proc/asound/cards
Yesss – sound works again 
(Only jack output; no HDMI or BT headset output… but I think I can live with that… 
)
Thank you yet again!
HDMI
modprobe spacemit-hdmiaudio
Yeah, I tried that; Unfortunalety that (in itself) does not add a hdmi sound device
