This board is problematic.... still. From the FSF site:
"The AllWinner A1x platforms come in many boards such as the A13-OLinuXino, Cubieboard, Gooseberry and Hackberry.
The free startup software does not handle the internal memory; therefore these machines have to be booted from an SD card every time.
In addition, the GPU and the video decoding hardware are unusable in the free world, so these jobs must be done on the CPU.
The Cubieboard, Gooseberry and some versions of the A13-OLinuXino contain a WiFi chip that doesn't work without nonfree software. See the documentation of your board for information about using these USB devices with it.
People are working on free software support for the internal memory and the Mali GPU. Please contribute to these projects! The free software for Mali is Lima."
