Ubuntu do not support mipi-csi temporary.

How soon will it be supported?

I understand you have it running under the Android side.

Please provide a timeline. or any sort of estimate. Are we looking at days, weeks, or months?

Any ideas when we can see support for MIPI cameras for debian based system? The ecosystem for firefly isn't great. I would expect when selling cameras with the firefly SBC, you would expect it to work on debian based system similar to rapsberry PI. Most people use debian based OSes or similar on a SBC than android. From reading the forum post, firefly usually pass the buck to Rockchip to resolve this issue than supporting their own boards. I will be weary to buy my next lot of SBC from them.
