identify my T-R42/K-R42 / Stock Firmware? ("R-box boot logo")

[kokospalme]

Hi folks,

Some time ago I wanted to flash my R42 with Picuntu (or any other Linux version) to get more performance because I just need xbmc and a few other programs...
sadly it didnt work with any FW, including ALMOST ALL of the firmwares posted in this forum.
I bought it on **** as a "K-R42", but with bluetooth it must be an T-R42, right?

this is what it looks like from the inside:






there is some kind of "code" on the board: "ZXSD-Z X0 05 " " V02" and "2013.08.25"



This is the information of the firmware and kernel (STOCK):
- Kernel-Version: 3.0.36+
- Build-Number: rk31sdk-eng 4.2.2 JDQ39 eng.ty.20131010.103451 test-keys
- Vendor Software: RK3188_R-BOX_ANDROID4.2.2-SDkV1.0.0_130514

Could you please help me by identifying my anrdoid-box?
Maybe some of you have an idea why NO other firmware works...
I would love to run Picuntu/ubuntu on my R42!

thanks a lot to everyone who can help me

BTW:
No HW acceleration for video at Linux at the moment (and maybe never)...

Does anyone have a copy of a 4.4 Kitkat version firmware that will work with this R-BOX 2G 8G, with ZXSD-Z X005 V02 board, using RTL8723AS wireless ?

Thanks for any feedback...
