    I've successfully built an LXDE image for the Udoo QUAD using instructions found elsewhere in these forums, but using Trusty 14.04 alpha 2. So far, the things that don't work are: wireless, video playback (using VLC), and analog audio. It's a start. Overall, it's got the same snapiness as the Debian Jessie image that's available. I haven't run any speed tests yet, but it works as a reasonable desktop. The piece that worked straightaway is networking - network shares just worked.

    How best to share this image? The file system is about 1.5 GB (LXDE and Libreoffice take a fair bit of that space), compressed to a tgz file of 560 MB. I built it on a 4 GB microSD card, so I could create an image easily enough.

    where should I post either an image or tgz file?

    cheers

    Did you put NTFS and other FS mounting with FUSE? I can't seem to use any USB Flash (even FAT doesn't work) or USB HDD for that matter with the current Ubuntu 12.04 Kernel. If your image includes a Kernel with this support I'd like to use it.

    Hi,

    You have to recompile kernel with fuse support for NTFS an then install with apt-get ntfs-3g.

    It's not difficult recompile kernel, try it!
