Hi
This is still based on the Early Access release and is all being sorted out for the first “production” release.
The recent snapshot builds from 118 (which I’ve been using) work with the on-board WiFi with one proviso. At present you have to manually start up the network as the auto-start in Debian seems to expose a timing problem (the China team are looking at this).
[Also beware that Snapshot 125 (and later?) appears to have an HDMI regression so I wouldn’t recommend using that.]
Going forward, as the number of boards increase, it would be nice to have a page pointing to the "recommended" build for each of these boards to help users who don't track kernels/builds on a daily basis. Cyanogenmod, for example, does this[1] and default to the nightly builds.
Another page could have a itemised list of features (for example, usb, hdmi, wifi, cpufreq, thermal) and their status (working, WIP, planned) on the vendor and mainline kernels. This could help in involving the community in feature enablement.
If this is seen as useful, it would be easier to get the pages started now when we have only one board to worry about.
