    @lukaszDid you try running glxinfo?  I was just trying to indicate that there seems to be a difference in gnome settings in terms of what is reported for X rather than Wayland,  but in both cases glxinfo shows panfrost as the extended renderer.   

     

    Yep, I did. And sure enough, it reports Panfrost. And KODI as well as other programs also report Panfrost. So at this point the only thing I'm unsure about is whether the desktop itself is accelerated or not.

    @lukasz  are you running on X11

    For me ,  using self built hirsute/gnome (as opposed to just downloading)  ,  using gnome on Wayland shows proper " mali T860 (Panfrost)"  where gnome on Xorg shows " unknown,  but in in either case glxinfo  extended renderer section shows panfrost is used.  Perhaps there is a bug in the settings program?  

    Desktop sort of works for me on my 4k monitor (usbc dock-hdmi connection--same as on other distributions--the  geometry is wrong and that also effects the display on the pinebook itself,  but it has worked that way on any distribution I have tried)  Natural scrolling setting seems to work on Wayland...

     

    Strange, I fetched the GNOME OS image, figured they all come with GPU accelerated desktops now? Stable branch, daily build with GNOME desktop from yesterday.

  3. A few other issues I encountered when testing on the Pinebook Pro:

    1) Natural scrolling setting doesn't work

    2) WiFi doesn't come back up after suspend. Restarting network-manager brings it back up.

    3) Video out via USB-C doesn't appear to work on any of my docks

     

    One other thing I noticed: in settings 'About' panel, under graphics, it doesn't list Mali T-860 (Panfrost) but rather Unknown

  4. I am posting the following in the capacity of an errand boy ;)

    Anarsoul has done a lot of work on the A64 and has custom patches for the Pine A64, SOPine and the Pinebook that have not found their way into mainline yet (his git: https://github.com/anarsoul/). He only does Arch and has no knowledge of Debian/ Ubuntu. I recently asked on Twitter and PINE64 forum which OS users would like to see the Pinebook ship and many users reported Armbian.

    If anyone would be willing to help incorporate Anarsoul's work into Armbian so that we could have more features working on the aforementioned devices on mainline, then please have a chat with him in the linux-sunxi or pine64 IRC.
