Canonical and SpacemiT team up for Ubuntu on SpacemiT K1 and K3 RISC-V chips

Chinese RISC-V chip maker SpacemiT is partnering with Canonical to bring Ubuntu to computers powered by two of the company’s processors.

The Spacemit K1 is an 8-core RISC-V processor that’s been around for a little while, but the SpacemiT K3 is a newer, higher-performance chip that’s one of the first to comply with the new RVA23 standard.

That’s important because starting with Ubuntu 25.10, […]

Bit-Brick Cluster K1 lets you build a 32-core RISC-V computer (by clustering 4 SpacemiT K1 boards)

The SpacemiT K1 is an 8-core RISC-V processor that has been tapped for several single-board computers, laptops, and tablets in the past two years. It’s not exactly the fastest processor available, with performance about on par with what you’d expect from an Arm Cortex-A55 chip. But you know what’s faster than an 8-core RISC-V processor? A cluster board that lets you leverage four of them at […]

Update: The BPI-CM6 compute module with a SpacemiT K1 RISC-V processor is now available for $67 + shipping (or $84 for a bundle that includes a carrier board). https://liliputing.com/banana-pi-bpi-cm6-is-a-compute-module-with-a-spacemit-k1-risc-v-processor/ #RISCV #SpaceMiTK1 #BananaPi #ComputeModule #BananaPiBPI-CM6

Banana Pi BPI-CM6 is a compute module with a SpacemiT K1 RISC-V processor

The Banana Pi BPI-CM6 is a computer-on-a-module that’s the same size and shape as a Raspberry Pi CM4 and even uses the same board-to-board connectors. But while Raspberry Pi’s compute module has an ARM-based processor, the BPI-CM6 is powered by a SpacemiT K1 octa-core RISC-V chip.

Basically it has the same capabilities as the Banana Pi BPI-F3 single-board computer that launched a year ago but […]

At last I got that final but important piece for my RISC-V SBC ( @bananapi BPI-F3): the cooler. Now I can finally start compiling some big chunks of code like Qt and KDE software. I do have distributed cross-compiling set up using Icecream, but apparently you can't prevent it scheduling compile jobs locally on SBC and only send them to more powerful computers. Let the fun begin…
