Which OS works as of December 2022

[johns]

Hello,

got my hands on a Pinetab lately. Since UT is hardly usable I want to flash another OS.

I read through the threads here and since most of the relvant posts are quite old I like to ask what OS works as of the end of 2022?

Any news about tow boot?

Thanks in advance!

I'm using Mobian on my PineTab. It works.

What about tow boot? Did you install it without issues?

Does the touchpad work properly?

Did you try other distros, too? In a Youtube video a guy said that Arch with Phosh would perform better than Mobian.

I rather rely on info given here, so I'll go with Mobian first and try it these days.

Thank you

AFAIK, there is no Tow Boot for PineTab yet (https://tow-boot.org/devices/index.html).

I have not used the touchpad for a long time, but it did work last I tried in Mobian. I have not tried any other distros, so can't say if Arch would perform better. I do have some performance issues with Mobian which have recently appeared -- trouble running Firefox and Evolution at the same time after a while. This wasn't a problem in the past, so I'm hoping it's a temporary regression. On the other hand, the device does only have 2GB of RAM...
