🛠️ Platform & Driver Fixes

Armbian is a community-driven project maintained by a group of dedicated individuals in their limited free time. We provide the platform and tools for collaboration, but fixing every bug is beyond our capacity. Even large, well-funded teams face similar limits. That’s why we rely on the community—not just for reporting issues, but for actively helping to resolve them.
