HW Acceleration Working
(08-25-2016, 07:06 PM)nagmier Wrote: Which as I've pointed out before in other threads is not what I purchased this for! I was under the impression the LCD would work with ANY OS.... That was NEVER explained... I'm happy to leave the thing in the drawer until/if it gets proper support... notice weeks later we still aren't getting info in a remotely timely manner... What ever happened to the EULA etc.... its just being forgotten... much like the Pine64 will be... Hell this is worse than when the Beaglebone Black was first released

Unfortunately, this was something that was just not clearly explained at the time. There was no claim that the LCD work with any OS... in fact, the only real mention of it was in relation to Android, so whilst it *could* be inferred that it (the LCD) was marketed as being for Android primarily, its hard to draw that conclusion from the kickstarter page, and the backer messages sent during and even after the campaign was funded. Whilst Android was marketed as being ready to roll, with access to all the great apps on the app store, in the same breath, there was also a prominent focus on on the Ubuntu support, and not many people would envisage ubuntu as being a headless linux environment (and certainly isn't in line with Canonical's vision of it being a 'human friendly' linux!) :-O

With respect to the EULA, until progress is made (more a legal issue than a technical one, as Lenny already has working builds as you can see from screenshots he's been putting up) it can't be legally distributed, so things are at an impasse there until the legal issues are resolved. That does not prevent using the board for things like a headless server, a lightweight desktop GUI, media server. But it does mean if you want things like the 7" touch screen to work right now... your best option is to use Android. And since there are rooted images available, you should be able to do just about anything you want to that build. As the guys at pine64 wind up the shipping process... (they're near the end... since they've processed over 38,000 shipments, and had some 11,000ish to go in late July).... they'll be able to focus attention on getting other aspects of the pine64 software/hardware support up to speed. So I would expect to see good things on the graphics front, etc in the coming months... 

So try the Android image, and see if you can wrangle that into a usable state for your current purposes, or shelve the board for a couple of months and check back in... it certainly isn't a lost cause... just an over-funded, hence behind-schedule project Wink
