Problems with Firefly support

I also second that.

This board crushes Raspberry Pi 3 in terms of raw performance but I still had to go ahead and buy several Raspberry Pi 3s for media center, retro gaming and hobby electronics purposes. My firefly on the other hand collects dust in the corner, because I can't use it.

Raspberry Pi has better software support, drivers and up to date Linux images. If only Firefly had up to date Linux images and better software support then I'd ditch my Intel x86 laptop and switch to Firefly for general purpose computing. Web browsing, Chromium, YouTube, VLC, Kdenlive etc... All I ask is working GPU, VPU and 1920x1200 resolution support under Ubuntu 16.04.

Hello Again,

Well, after 17 days, I think it's time to ask if we (users) have some official pronunciation of the firefly team

Thanks !

Just hope that a full featured Ubuntu 16.04 firmware can be released for my board working as a cool fanless mini desktop.
I'm such a noob so that I cannot build a firmware with support of GPU and other hardware components.
Though it's a Android oriented device,it have already replaced my desktop with Intel i3-4160 for several months.
