I've been daily-driving mine as a = desktop for a few months, although I still can't get drm-kmod's amdgpu = to load properly - perhaps you can? The PCIe slot has an Optane, not video. Very few of the machines I use have video engaged even rarely. One FreeBSD machine has a lower end (and low power) video card --but I do not use X11 or the like on it generally. Similarly for built-in HDMI (when it is used at all). The same Optane can be used to boot the MACCHIATObin Double Shot, where it was previously in use. I do not have access to other aarch64 machines with a PCIe slot. These two machines only have one such slot. =3D=3D=3D Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com ( dsl-only.net went away in early 2018-Mar)
