HDMI issues

Well if thats the case, that the Pine is not communicating with the monitors to give them a feed they accept, then perhaps someone can tell us exactly what it is the pine is outputting so that we can get a screen that properly supports it. 

Damn shame that its not more compatible tho like other SBC.

Pine64 is at a very early stage at this point.  Most other SBC's have been on the market for awhile.  I recall Raspberry Pi was somewhat dicey in the early days also.

I would expect a lot of things to be broken, and right now the developers are probably having to triage things.

It will likely be fixed as things get into wider distribution and more people can look at the problem with different eyes. If you want it fixed sooner, you need to jump in and debug what is going on. This is how Free Software improves -- people jump in and roll up their sleeves to fix issues.

Oh trust me, not new to OSS however this is basic low level operation that will likley be tied to firmware that I wont be able to touch at this point. 

That said my pine is sitting here next to me booted into debian and I am ssh into it at the moment. 

I have a feeling a lot of folks expected something a bit more finished based on the KS campaign, not something that was still very much an alpha product. But hey I could be wrong.
