Hello. I'm just waiting for my Pinebook. But I have some disappointment after I have read about hardware support. One linux distro doesn't support one of component, another distribution doesn't support another one.

As I see in this table, the most usable distro is KDE neon. But HDMI is not supported and GPU acceleration is marked with "?". Is there any solution to fix HDMI output on KDE Neon? Does GPU work? If yes what driver does it use: from ARM or reverse-engineered?
