    2020 got a reaction from manuti in How to create a modern desktop with the lowest RAM consumption and test the GPU performance with Panfrost.   
    Lubuntu Focal / Panfrost
    Download the latest current version of Focal (Panfrost drivers included) for your device and follow the instructions https://www.armbian.com/download/
    After the first login type ... exit (exit from root, login with the new user id entered in step 1)
    Download the Panfrost Tester script
    git clone https://gist.github.com/8f8b0cd40e95ac18c539cd29ecd4c3d2.git install-panfrost-tester cd install-panfrost-tester Version 21.0.0-rc5 will be installed. If you wish, you can modify the mesa branch using:
    nano installPanfrostTester.sh (ex: go to install mesa line and change from 21.0 to master) Install Lubuntu Focal / Panfrost *** It will take at least 30 minutes to compile mesa ***
    sudo sh ./installPanfrostTester.sh sudo reboot Login graphically with your user id ...
    Open Firefox browser, go to Armbian forum to retrieve the link from this topic and follow the instructions.
    Verify Memory being used
    Open Htop, in my case with Tinkerboard/S the memory was 260M, with the Odroid-C4 it is 400M
    Get information from Mesa (Panfrost driver)
    To find out the GPU chip that your computer uses, open QTerminal
    glxinfo | grep OpenGL Testing performance and 3D acceleration in the real world
    Open VLC and change the default settings - Tools -> Preferences -> Interface
    Check: Allow only one instance and Enqueue item into...
    Uncheck: Show systray icon and Save
    Then, from VLC change video output - Tools -> Preferences -> Video
    Output: change from Automatic to OpenGL for Embedded Systems 2 video output and Save
    Quit VLC
    Download HD/4k/8k/10k Videos playlist from vimeo
    git clone https://gist.github.com/682ced111c6b3adc74e70dcedf370852.git Videos In VLC, open video-examples.m3u under Videos folder, and observe the results!
    For the desktop GPU performance, you can open screensaver and preview the 3D screensaver demo
    Cheers, enjoy ... VinVIn

    2020 got a reaction from Igor in First Panfrost enabled desktop builds   
    The GPU accelerated trend with the SBC community will depend on the Panfrost driver development. After some testing on current version of Mesa (20.2.6) on Armbian, only the Midgard series (Mali-T###) will work. Mali-G30, Mali-G50 and Mali-G70 series (Bifrost) is not included in Mesa (20.2.6) without tweeking. At the current time the Mesa project version 21.1, the Panfrost driver is unstable/broken and several commits behind the target branch (master).
     
    Might be worth waiting until the official release is available!

    Hello all, 
    This Linux OS is based on Armbian_20.11_Tinkerboard_bullseye_current_5.8.18 image. I have created this OS to be able to watch Netflix via a browser. This OS is compatible with TB & TB/s.
    Key features:
        • OS: Debian 11 bullseye
        • Kernel: armv7l Linux 5.8.18-rockchip
        • CPU: ARMv7 rev 1 (v7l) @ 4x 1.8GHz
        • GPU: Mali T760 (Panfrost driver, OpenGL 2.1)
        • Browser: vivaldi-stable_3.4.2066.106-1_armhf (widevine-flash)
    This Linux OS image is provided AS IS with NO WARRANTY and NO END USER SUPPORT.
    You can now download the VinVin-OS version 20201130, here ...
    Share code: ASUSMYFKLUXMY
    VinVin-OS default username is “vinvin”, password is “vin=20”
    Tips:
    Use a fast Micro SD card,  minimum 3 amps power supply and a case which includes a cooling fan to avoid system crashing due to overheating. 
    Getting Started:
    Write the zip compressed image with Etcher and (TB) insert SD card into a slot or (TB/s) use a USB cable to connect to your computer.
    Power the board: 
        • TB
          (First) boot takes up to two to minutes.
          (Second) boot takes up to one minute.
          Login with the user id: vinvin
        • TB/s
          Remove the USB cable connected to your computer.
          (First) boot takes up to one to minute.
          Login with the user id: vinvin.
          Also important: resize your file system with, for example, GParted to the full capacity.
    Enjoy :-)
