If the Pine team is not in control of the images, who is? Is someone from Allwinner doing the images? As I thought these builds were specific to the Pine, I thought it would be easy to request this change.
hi montero65, Allwinner has NDA(s) with ARM and Syllology<sp> as far as I know. I actually do not know who builds the images specifically; I can tell you that making suggestions and providing bug reports is (at this time) an internal affair that even tllim has mentioned should not be brought forward yet for public access. Like I said before, and I'm just trying to be honest and forthright, in good faith, the images are not being built by the gnu+linux team, and they are not being built by the Pine team (and we are just as frustrated about that as you are).
I have a stack of notes on my desk for bug reports... and another stack for suggestions for improvement... and I myself am struggling a bit to get them to the right people in a sensitive way. This is nothing unlike other things that any other startup has had to deal with... NDA(s) are a PITA, but a fact of life. Also, proprietary codes are also a PITA, but when that stuff is out of ones hands, one deals with what one CAN control--- its just abetter use of time and resources.
