Hello,
yesterday I tried the Trusty Distro in order to find out, if armbian could be an alternative. It seemed not to be so. Installing the distro, updating und upgrading the system, left me with "no soundcard" messages.
lsusb found vid and pid of the attached usb-soundcard but, in difference to raspbian aplay -l and cat /proc/asound/cards didn't show it at all.
Also the lcd display I attached was not recognized by the system as far as I can see.
Desperate greetings
Andre
