Hello,

I hqve install Ubuntu on SDCard. When I start the device, the computer goes on terminal login page. No graphic display is available.

I use the Ubuntu image on Rock 5 b.

Best regards.

Hi @Xavier_Buhot,

The Radxa Ubuntu image doesn’t include a GUI, however you can easily install gnome or xfce as discussed here:
Xubuntu 22.04.2 Setup and Experience

I’ve been running mine for nearly a month. It’s been a HTPC, HomeAsssistant, and jellyfin the past couple weeks without issue.

Hope this helps!
