You can start testing Armbian on the Orange Pi RV2 RISC-V SBC. They are still working on the GPU driver.

The Felix86 team gave me some GOG games. Thanks a lot! Now I have to figure out if I can run Crysis on RISC-V with only the integrated PowerVR GPU.

Testing Armbian 26.2 on the Radxa Rock 5B Rockchip RK3588 SBC. Now that it ships with kernel 6.18, you can run it with the open-source Vulkan driver.
I had some issues running Steam with Fex-Emu. Looking forward to Armbian based on Ubuntu 26.04.

Armbian now has Platinum support for the Muse Pi Pro, SpacemiT K1 RISC-V SBC.
I have HDMI audio working with the rolling release image. You can install gcc-14 for better support for vectors. Support for the integrated GPU still needs work.

Disclosure: SpacemiT has reviewed the video and promised me a free SpacemiT K3 board.

I had remote access to a SpacemiT K3 board. I tested Stable-Diffusion.cpp and OnnxStream (run Stable Diffusion with less than 512MB!).

Performance has improved a lot compared to the SpacemiT K1.

The Alldocube iPlay 70 mini Pro Android tablet has received some software updates. Now it is possible to play 4K YouTube. Some things have better performance, like WebGL and LLMs. And it is possible to play some GOG and Steam games with GameNative.

Recently someone gifted me some games on GOG, and GOG gave away Alone in the Dark Trilogy for a short period of time.
This gives me the opportunity to test some GOG games on Android with GameNative. I was able to play Doom II.
