Star64: GPU firmware loading on Armbian
#12
It's not that bad, with the right setup, even the soft mode works well enough and can use Star64 as a mini PC with DE without HW GPU. For example, can even watch videos in windowed mode. In any case, there are no strong brakes when using DE XFCE\Icewm normally. can try these images and make sure that DE works.

p.s. Even on the first variant of VF1 (jh7100) without GPU at all, I can work with DE acceptably. Smile
