I probably commented on this somewhere else on the forum, but this is an appropriate place to repeat it. I received my pine64 around a month ago, and hadn't gotten around to seriously playing with it till last weekend. I tried the debian image based on the work by longsleep, and also the latest ubuntu image by longsleep. After some minor hurdles easily fixed by searching the forum here (i.e. wifi setup) I got be basics running just fine. Some more tinkering and asking of stupid questions (thanks longsleep!) got the audio working. So I have a happy 'lil pine that connects to my wifi, runs headless, is connected to via SSH and plays internet radio, and will shortly be re-introduced to apache/mysql/php... and it all runs great! I cannot fault the hardware for the price, and the software side is shaping up quite nicely! Stories like these are needed to offset all the negatives that keep getting posted because people are impatient and keep jumping on their soapbox before checking who else is in line!
