    Rockchip tough as a rock when it comes to getting its graphics working. Any suggestions?

    I've asked about this thing on a range of forums now, often with little luck in getting responses, so I've had to slog and fiddle my way through it mostly by trial and error, but this last problem really has me stumped - it's been really hard going because while I've used Linux a lot, virtually...

    Hey, I'm having an issue identical the one described here (or here), but I can't find a working solution anywhere. To sum up, I can't install Kali as the screen becomes unreadable both in graphical and text installation mode, but I can run it live and it works perfectly okay. Any ideas on...
