I tried to install Armbian on Pinebook Pro. It works, I can connect to wifi, install packages, but when I start Xorg, I see just a back screen, like there is some problem with display configuration. I guess I have to configure display output, but I am not sure how to do that. Any hint?

You will need the dtb, the kernel and modules from a Pinebook Pro image to make it work.

What it means exactly? Kernel and modules from Debian build or Ayufan's repo?

Id use ayufan's repo because Armbian use his kernel as far as I know. Grab ayufan's ubuntu build, take the dtb and kenel image from /boot and then you need the modules from rootfs - which should be in /lib/ somewhere.

Not surprise its work, when designs Pinebook Pro, we try to follow the Rockpro64 GPIO pin assignment and use back same peripheral chips as identical as possible :-)

I just expected that everything will work, when it is so identical

First just drop in a PBP device tree into /boot. Then just edit extlinux with:

Code:

video=eDP-1:1920x1080@60

See if you get something on the screen. You will likely miss sound, bt/wifi, battery support, and a number other things but at least it will confirm that Armbian is bootable with a simple dtb swap.
