Hello, I'm not too up to date on the mainlining efforts. However I had success with the a31 running Linux. The GPU worked under mer and I managed to get Ubuntu touch booting. It did have problems but it ran. I posted some of this on my github but I haven't looked at it in almost a year.
I think the A31 will work well for you but you probably won't find much help in the community. Thanks. --Neal Peacock On Jul 4, 2014 2:10 AM, <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > Since quite some time I have been giving courses on embedded system and > lately using a10 tablets for this purpose.
