Hello,
I receive my vim3l so i create this topic to share my experience.
So first i have to ask this to you khadas : Are you taking your clients for turkey ?
Honestly… I don’t think you tried half the systems img files in your repo before release them. I understand they are auto generate by some tools, but you can at least try to boot them to see if they are not broken, it’s not like you have many hardware to try them and it’s 5 min per img…
Anyway, first i start krescue and try debian (both server and minimal) and ubuntu 20.4 img (server), with 5.9 kernel. These img are booting, but no keyboard (usb not working), no internet whatsoever from cable or wifi, and the image from hdmi is strange, instead of black it’s blue saturated, so text is nearly impossible to read. Hell !
There is a few ubuntu img with 5.5 kernel to find. Well… they just don’t boot. The only thing that boot is the ubuntu 18.04 img and the very first 20.04 img with 4.9 kernel. I install the last one, and then i tried to compile mpd, because i want a minimal server setup to run mpd, so i’d prefer to have the last mpd version. Impossible to compile mpd because ffmpeg libraries are broken somehow :
I tried again to find a working debian img, i don’t know maybe ffmpeg version in debian’s repo is not broken, but there is only this 5.9 version that doesn’t at all, i just try it…
The only other img i tried is volumio. It is working fine but i don’t want it.
I would prefer running arch or manjaro, but i couldn’t find any img with minimal / server option. Honestly you need to put more care in your systems, because it’s really boring to have such issues, there is not only corelec and kodi in life !
