donate it for developers, will add to growing the community. these boards are made by enthusiastic people, I guess, they hardly do a lot of money of this business. it's development boards. software support is hard and it comes up only eventually, with work of many people. Pine cannot afford hiring dozens of software engineers that would polish that linux mess, thrown at them by rockchip/alwinner and (god forbid amlogic ). and also, a lot of people have found use of these boards and enjoy them, end users, not those who compile endlessly that linux. making all that stuff, which could be made with an ARM SBC. your fail isn't representative. maybe you made some mistakes, it's linux - a very rough and unfriendly environment, you need to do a lot of research by yourself to get it working (well, just working) even on a PC, on ARM boards the situation is way worse.
