Hi everyone. I heard Armbian was the to-go distribution for the Nanopi NEO Air. I've got a bunch of these boards where I'd like to use the built-in Bluetooth and Wi-Fi capability in a small form factor for a project. I don't need video or audio or other functionality.
I see a legacy kernel "stable build" and a mainline kernel "experimental" build. For the experimental build it lists the following known problems:
No Mali drivers
No hardware accelerated video decoding
schedutil CPU governor may cause clicks and pops on audio output – change(d) to ondemand to work around this issue
This sounds fine with me. I need no video, and no audio.
I also see from the documentation:
Is this still currently the case? Would using mainline kernel potentially overheat the board if there is a processing load on it?
Lastly, what else about this experimental mainline kernel board for the Nanopi NEO Air should I be keeping in mind in case it's not well-documented but known to people using this board that might be relevant to me?
