@sinovoip @BPI_Justin @bpisupport As I received no help from your shitty support I decided to go ahead and create my own base image that is clean and doesn't contain all of the extra stuff that you provide with your images.
When I say clean images I mean that no pre-defined user accounts are setup–this is as clean as it gets.
As of now I have a working version of Ubuntu Xenial 16.04 running xfce, and am trying a few other images with Ubuntu-MATE as well. I'll provide these images back to the community once I confirm it to be working well.
This is the current status and remaining work:
✓ BPI-M3 3.4 Kernel
✓ USB
✓ Wifi
✓ Ethernet
✓ Resolution up to 720p (HDMI)
✘ Resolution 1080p (HDMI)
✘ GPU
✘ Audio
? SATA
? Bluetooth
