I'm proud to present Cubieez, a Debian 7.3 with kernel 3.4.75, adapted from de original Cubieez A10 version for Cubieboard 2 (A20) and Cubietruck.



Whats new on Cubieez 1.0 (CT):
  • Kernel 3.4.75 with perfomance governor and NOOP I/O Scheduler (patwood's kernel branch)
  • Integrated WiFi supported
  • 2 GB RAM support
  • Optical out (SPDIF) driver
  • Updated iceweasel
  • Moved to Debian 7.3 ARMHF

Some features of Cubieez for CT A20:
  • CPU governor set to performance
  • I/O Scheduler to NOOP increases perfomance on flash devices
  • Kernel 3.4.75 with ARMHF from patwood's branch
  • Based on Debian 7.3 Wheezy, creating the rootfs from zero for Cubie
  • Kernel support to major USB Wi-Fi adapters
  • Clock & date synchro with fake-hwclock (via ntp)
  • Debian 7.3 ARMHF repository (better than Ubuntu one)
  • LXDE base desktop with low mem consumption
  • audio CODEC (jack audio), sunhdmi (HDMI audio) and SPDIF
  • microSD activity to green led (you can change it to blue into rc.local)
  • X11VNC, SSH (SFTP too) and other basic utils installed
  • iceweasel browser
  • Gnome Mplayer (less CPU consumption than lxmusic)
  • Benchmark tools (@ /root)
  • Lightweight, only 2GB microSD required. Can be expanded to bigger ones.
