While I am currently unable to locate the post asserting the Udoo team successfully installed Jessie, this post from a Udoo user alludes to a successful Jessie install: http://www.udoo.org/forum/threads/no-audio-output-on-linux-over-hdmi.6803/ On the other hands, there is a user also encountering the blank-screen syndrome with Jessie on the Udoo X86 platform: http://www.udoo.org/forum/threads/linux-xfce-debian-jessie-blank-screen.6854/ And another who found stretch more stable than Jessie: http://www.udoo.org/forum/threads/debian-jessie-linux-os-installation.6819/#post-26261 I believe this may have been where I saw the mention of Debian on the Udoo X86 platform: http://www.udoo.org/docs-x86/Software_&_OS_Distro/Linux.html When/if I receive a response to my inquiry from the Udoo support team regarding which Jessie distribution they installed, I'll post it here. Larry PS: It is the integrated Arduino hardware and very low power requirement that make this new platform interesting to me for portable/battery-power use.
