My KDE Plasma Image for the #PineTabV is now available for testing. Still lots to fix up but this has full GPU desktop acceleration, and feels responsive, even running from a SD card. Check https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PineTab-v for details. #pine64 #riscv @PINE64 @pine64eu

@Fishwaldo @PINE64 @pine64eu this is very cool, I love that we will finally have fully open platforms. I’m sure there’ll be some odd blobs here and there in some chips, but it’s getting whittled down so much quicker than I thought possible. I still can’t bring myself to buy anything from pine64 yet, I appreciate what they’re doing, I just don’t have the patience to be a part time quality assurance engineer.

@PINE64 @pine64eu @AlexanderMars it’s as “open” as it can be. Still plenty of proprietary IP in a RiscV SOC, and we still have wifi and GPU that would probably never be blob free, but it is fun to work on something “new”.
