Cool! Thanks for the heads up @luz
I've made a github issue to track this update: https://github.com/OnionIoT/OpenWRT-Packages/issues/106
For now the plan is to make this updated driver available in the new 23.05 firmware.
Does anybody have a specific need to have this available in the older v0.3.4 firmware??
@luz hahaha, trying to become a full onioneer little by little.
It is the Omega2+. Here is a log of the boot process to see if I'm missing anything.

I did see that address 80800000 is outside the zone range of the memory but the load address is defined as 0x80800000 and trying to load it via tftp and booting anywhere else fails to decompress the image. Maybe thats the issue and just assumed it should work. Thought the offset would take care of that but maybe I am misunderstanding what the offset does
CONFIG_SYS_LOAD_ADDR=0x80800000
While OpenWrt is a single user system, you can create additional users so you don't have to disclose the root user password. You can add the user by editing /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow or you can install the useradd package:
opkg install shadow-useradd
Now add a new user named "admin", but we don't want them to have shell access:
useradd admin -d /var -M -s /bin/false -p mytemporarypassword
The password is added in cleartext so you need to change it using the command:
passwd admin
Follow the prompts to set your password then you can confirm the new user has been added as required:
cat /etc/passwd
cat /etc/shadow
Since OnionOS uses ubus via rpc we need to add the user to the rpc user list. The configuration file is /etc/config/rcpd, but you can use uci commands to add the user:
uci add rpcd login
uci set rpcd.@login[-1].username='admin'
uci set rpcd.@login[-1].password='$p$admin'
uci add_list rpcd.@login[-1].read='*'
uci add_list rpcd.@login[-1].write='*'
uci commit rpcd
The username must match the username we just created and the structure of the password field causes the rpc daemon to use the system password we just created.
The "read" and "write" fields is set to an asterisk indicating that the user will have unrestricted access, the same as the root user.
You can confirm the new user had been added using a uci command:
uci show rpcd
rpcd.@login[0]=login
rpcd.@login[0].username='root'
rpcd.@login[0].password='$p$root'
rpcd.@login[0].read='*'
rpcd.@login[0].write='*'
rpcd.@login[1]=login
rpcd.@login[1].username='admin'
rpcd.@login[1].password='$p$admin'
rpcd.@login[1].read='*'
rpcd.@login[1].write='*'
Now restart the rpc daemon:
service rpcd restart
You can now login to OnionOS with the same functionality as the root user has, but the user has no console access.
@cyberai pls try running the checkCamera.py Example Python Program and posting the command line output and screenshots of the output.
This will give us a better idea of what's going on.
