Another fail from VIA after their earlier Android PC, which was derided on their forums for being too slow. There are tons of mini pcs now available with double the specs of the VIA pc and up to 2x lower price. Some even have 2GB RAM and can run Ubuntu with hardware acceleration.


Can you provide some links to these vendors please? Genuinely curious


Most of vendors are on aliexpress.

For hardware acceleration only GK802 has it currently. You can purchase it from this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044045

If you don't need hardware acceleration there is an Ubuntu version for UG802 and MK808 - code.google.com/p/rk3066-linux/wiki/PicUntu.


Is there an Ubuntu stick that will support 2560x1440 resolution?

Interesting. With or without blobs?
