From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Mine is still working. Armbian is great on it, though I still wish I could get hardware video decoding working in-browser. Best I can do right now is GPU OpenGL acceleration, but any site with video maxes out the CPU and kills battery life.
That all said, I love the keyboard on it.
Armbian was the most promising when I had mine, but still wasn't ready. I just couldn't get into manjaro, but every time I loaded a new OS the screen would die, come back, flciker and a "shadow" around the perimeter of the screen.
Hm, sounds like you got unlucky and the display cable died on you
Yeah it was unfortunate because of their (basically) no returns policy I didn't want to roll the dice on a second one.
