www.armbian.com<\/a> page, and after fiddling a bit with it then all the issues I had with the Banana PI M2 have vanished. This is far better than what the Banana PI team is supplying.<\/p>\nNetwork works decently both WIFI and Wired. USB sticks work. And I get display for first time at full resolution.<\/p>\n
To get things up the way I wanted I had to:<\/strong><\/p>\nFirst get up user interface:<\/strong><\/p>\napt-get -y install xorg lightdm xfce4 tango-icon-theme gnome-icon-theme<\/p>\n
reboot<\/p>\n
Add GUI to the network setup:<\/strong><\/p>\nsudo apt-get install wicd<\/p>\n
Make USB sticks mount and fix the trash can not showing on desktop:<\/strong><\/p>\nsudo apt-get install thunar-volman
\nsudo apt-get install gvfs
\nsudo apt-get install policykit-1<\/p>\n
Add a web browser:<\/strong><\/p>\nsudo apt-get install epiphany-browser<\/p>\n
M3: \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\nI waited on this one for months with great hopes as if I was waiting for the holy grail. There are only two normal USB ports, so if you have keyboard and a mouse then there is no place for USB stick. SATA port is more or less fake since it uses way slow USB bridge. It will only scan for Wifi if I have wired net connected also.<\/p>\n
I have not given up on this one, I still hope they will post better system image where some things are fixed. But my hopes are low given their ability and track record to support their devices.<\/p>\n
Why on earth they make loads of system Images with Various of Linux types is beyond me when they all are bad instead of focusing making one good at least.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
