Linux runs too slowly on Allwinner A10 or A13 chip

so we'll have to wait until Allwinner new generation of dual-core
chips flood the market.

Here's a tablet using an Allwinner dual core
(confusing since dual core is cortex A10)

beg ya pardon but linux can run happy on the a13. i am posting this from the olinuxino a13 board running debian wheezy, xfce, iceweasel.

its actually rather snappy, about the same speed to use as eeepc701 to the user.
webtv is watchable, browsing is fast.

BUT I MISS MY PUPPY!

i wish i knew how to get pup arm running on it.

Does Barry already know that his Mele's are upgraded with dual and quad cores etc ?

As he was succesful on Mele before but SPEED was the only problem I guess he would very quickly "on board".

Here's an interesting video on how to make
an OTG cable with a female end rather than
the normal male plug.

This is useful with Android tablets.

To buy a new cable is not expensive but few stores have this special
cable in stock.

It's possible to attach keyboards and USB sticks to nexus7
and probably other tablets.
