STM32MP157C-DK2 dev board slowing down 3d cube demo after days.

[Jack3]

I have two STM32MP157C-DK2 dev boards, they still have the demo software on it.
They collected a lot of dust, over the past years.

The problem is the 3d cube demo slowing down after days.
After a reset it is fast again. Perhaps a memory leak?

Because it needs a reset every day or maybe every hour, I never was willing to start developing software on it.

I'm cleaning up, and I am about to throw these kits in the trashbin.

But, what's the undelying problem? Is there a solution to keep de kits running stable and at full speed anyway?

Hi @Jack3 

I will give a try on my side with latest ecosystem on latest board STM32MP157F-DK2.

Which version of SW ecosystem or Linux kernel version you have on the board ?

• e.g. looking at board console log during boot or typing "uname -r" on the board console prompt

Did you try to put the latest ecosystem SW on the board ?

I assume the one delivered on SD-Card with this board is very old and largely updated meanwhile.

Regards.
