jambel Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Hello Igor and congrats for your contribution and regards to community! As the title points, is there any chance to create a Lubuntu image that will out of the box support all Pis (Banana Pi, Banana Pro, BPi-R1) with SATA, audio, networking and video acceleration? If it's too much, does anyone knows what OS is close to that requirements at least for BPi-R1? Or can we build something like this from scratch with your resources?I tried to create a new image based on LeMakers Lubuntu for Banana Pi (http://jubitoblog.blogspot.gr/2015/06/jubitos-z-operating-system-for-internet.html - http://jubitoblog.blogspot.gr/2015/02/jubitos-for-banana-pi.html) without much luck, on combine all in one. Any proposals are very welcome! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 It's possible to build such image with my script, also with HW acceleration. I made one (private) test build with Wheezy about month ago. Since this part is experimental it might need further fixing. I can't say for other images - which is cool, working, supported, HW acc. enabled. Don't use them.

Igor Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 You mean this one I suppose https://github.com/igorpecovnik/lib Where BUILD_DESKTOP="no" can I use "yes" and how to aim lxde with a full graphical env, include network managers, audio, etc that is provided almost in a desktop distro. This builds only basic desktop environment and it's not fine tuned. It's a good start but far from plug and play. Can it run on a desktop distro of ubuntu or only the server image you point? On both. Server is minimum requirements. When it's over the output file is ready to dd to an SD card? Yes One option is also to get an prebuild image an build a desktop of your wish on it. For hw acceleration you have to use kernel 3.4.x, Wheezy is recommended.
