I sucessfully installed on the T428 using - It is amazing !!
Here are a few of my findings:
1. Internal WIFI and Bluetooth not recognised. External Bluetooth device also doesn't seem to be recognised ( I installed bluetooth manager, no adapters found)
2. External USB Wifi recognised (DLINK DWA 140 ) but still working on trying to get it to work.
3. Sound worked out of the box via HDMI.
4. External USB Sound card is recognised , but it is not producing any sound (I selected playback of the recognised device in the pulse audio mixer, unmuted, mixer volume max - still no sound) : update - uninstalled pulseaudio, then reinstalled it and also included all recommended and suggested packages, then used pulse audio volume control and voila ! USB sound :-)
5. Cannot install Skype (architecture problems). I had hoped to at least get audio with skype but no success.
6. Of course MALI accelerated graphics not supported.
7. Firefox and chromium worked fine, most flash video sites don't work. Limited success with youtube in firefox using gnash. Very choppy.
8. Playing Videos (even low res) with Parole is very choppy full screen, have to have a very small window to play sort of smoothly.
9. Playing videos with gnome mplayer - will only play in a small window.
10. Libre Office works great.
11. Overall a very 'snappy' peformance, amazing , eventually this will become a full blown replacement desktop, well done to all !!
Now I have had a good play with it I want to go back to Android, at least for now as there is still work to be done with teh linux system. However my stick is now not recognised at all by my Windows PC. I had no problems before flashing to picuntu. The stick is just not recognised at all i.e. no usb sound, no new drive letter, just no reaction at all from the PC or Rockchip Tools software (even with the flash/reset button pressed). I have flashed and reflashed this stick hundreds of times before, this is the first time I faced this problem.
Any advice anyone?
Many thanks
