Mobian works ok. You can just skip past the broken onboarding proces (click on the bottom bar and then close the process, then just setup things like wifi using the settings app). Some issues:
- The keyboard is phone sized and I couldn't press the C key in portrait mode.
- The display is upside down when the keyboard is connected, there are some clipping issues (firefox url bar not visible in landscape, I think its hidden under the system bar)
- Sound doesn't seem to work, and neither does bluetooth.
It's not exactly speedy either, but overall it already works quite well. GPS and the camera work, although the latter freezes if you try to record video.
Yesterday when I tried a manjaro build it never booted from the sd card so will need to retry.
I also managed to turn up the volume a little via alsa mixer btw which helped.
Also I resized the Userdata partition using gparted (on an Ubuntu pc) to use the whole spare space but this seems to slow things down a little.
Day two impressions - little slower than hoped but buggy as it should be. Failing to get access to online accounts, Dekko crashy. Font looks really stretched and tried a bigger font which is helpful but the icons (notifications are still blocky and distant)
