Is there a decent low-cost RISC-V machine available yet, for testing stuff out on #Ubuntu desktop?

Testing applications on RISC-V hardware

Hullo! I have a bunch of snaps that I publish in the store. While everything should work the same on all architectures, that’s not always the case. GPU & driver differences, and other library quirks, mean that testing on amd64 doesn’t automatically assume the same snap works on arm64, for example. I can test the apps on amd64 (ThinkPad running Ubuntu) and arm64 (MacBook Air running Ubuntu Asahi), and, at a push (if I dig out a Raspberry Pi), on armhf. Some of which are built for “interesting”...

@popey Mebbe the DeepComputing Framework board in a cheapo 3d printed case?

@jnsgruk @popey No self-3D-printing required. There is a case from CoolerMaster which fits a @frameworkcomputer 13 motherboard so that you can use it like a PC.

I got a (now older) RISC-V motherboard from @deepcomputingio 's CEO Yuning Liang on FOSDEM 2025 for testing printing on RISC-V and I got it in such a case.

The case has Wi-Fi antennas (with adapter to connect to the board), VESA (100 mm) mount, stand.

No RISC(V), no fun!
