how do you start GUI? when loaded from SD card it never loads on GUI, already tried the following:

sudo systemctl enable lightdm

and reboot;

echo “/usr/sbin/lightdm” | sudo tee /etc/X11/default-display-manager > /dev/null

and reboot;

sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm

and reboot

I tried the image, The CPU frequency is locked between 648Mhz to 720Mhz. no matter which CPU governor is chosen.

I tested with “userspace”, “performance”, “interact” , all the same, CPU has 720Mhz as maximum frequency.

hi everyone i downloaded this image. the size of “.img” file is 7.28 but my sd card is 7.21 what should i do to boot this image on my sd i use win 10 in my laptop and i have a bpi m2+ thanku

Received a little Banana Pi Zero UMPC with this image installed on a 32GB microSD card.

Works well overall, but no ethernet LAN support.

Would be great to have ethernet support so I can connect to network that way with my USB ethernet adapter. It uses ASIX AX88179.

Is there a way to add it to this image or do we need an updated image?

Thanks.
