Best OS...

[Luke]

In anarsoul's arch you need to select xfce from de drop-down menu. Then it will enter the session.
Armbian doesn't have an image for the 1080p Pinebook... yet.
Don't know about NetBSD - heard a similar report. Perhaps it got fixed yesterday...

I'll give Arch another try then.
I tried NetBSD again yesterday. Still black screen. That said, it's not dead. It does a flash of the caps and numlock lights. It also does something which the previous build did which can be infuriating if you don't know. It changes the system clock to a seemingly random date decades in the future when going back to Linux. This means SSL certificates fail until the date and time is reset. Just something to keep in mind.

As for Armbian, it's unfortunate. I misunderstood a post I saw. I quite like Armbian.

So two things.
1) Mainline Armbian is coming - I've been testing a WIP build today:



2) And NetBSD must work, someone posted a video of them playing doom on it. Perhaps you'd ask in their IRC for pointers how to get it going.
