minus-squareundrwater@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·5 hours agoI just followed the handbook honestly. There’s one for ARM devices, but it’s not really necessary. It took a LONG time to compile everything, so I don’t recommend it to those wanting a simple solution. As for gaming? Who knows. We use the device for quick looking up of info, recipes (it stays in the kitchen), email, maybe a document or two. Not sure how much power the Mali GPU has.
