Preferred distro in Feb 2020?
#20
The original Ayufan Ubuntu 16.04 image was the absolute best distro available for the OG Pinebook. Everything except for the webcam worked on it. Even suspend! It was damn solid. It just old now.

I've been running Armbian for a week now. It's sorta ok. Still not to the level of the Ayufan Ubuntu. Suspend doesn't work. Volume keys don't work out of the box (had to hunt down, and install a package for that), power management seems wacky (it has a hard time telling when I have the Pinebook plugged in. Says discharging when its plugged in). I have weird graphical artifacts on the right side of the display (looks like pixel distortion or screen stretching honestly), and now wireless is flaky. If I run a continuous ping to my router, it'll drop 50% of the packets even being 6 feet away from the wireless access point. So I'm not convinced of Armbian yet... at least not on the original Pinebook.
