All the SoCs available from https://www.96boards.org/ https://www.96boards.org/ should have good mainline Linux support.
"Good manufacturers" today contribute directly to the upstream kernel, and frequently through Linaro kernel trees first.
- GhettoComputers 5y agoWould you recommend any of these boards over a Jetson? I’m glad these exist but most of the specs look awful, and I’ve tried rockchip in pine hardware and it sucks.
- necovek 5y agoI don't have much experience with the latest and greatest, and it surely depends on the types of workloads you plan to put on them. Rockchip has a number of differently performing chips (RK3399Pro seems to perform well in comparison with Jetson: https://www.cnx-software.com/2019/05/15/toybrick-rk3399pro-board-shown-to-outperform-jetson-nano-sbc/ https://www.cnx-software.com/2019/05/15/toybrick-rk3399pro-b..., https://www.seeedstudio.com/blog/2019/12/05/rk3399pro-vs-raspberry-pi-4-vs-jetson-nano-ai-and-deep-learning-capabilities/ https://www.seeedstudio.com/blog/2019/12/05/rk3399pro-vs-ras...). Pine only recently introduced a RK3399-based board (non-Pro, basically lacking an NPU) version, so you might want to go with them for availability reasons.
