We probably support the PinePhone as well es the Librem5.  Which
means that we'll run on them, but we'll probably have no output on
the display, unless PinePhone's bootloader provides a framebuffer
for us.  And definitely no sound or touchscreen or so, all those
drivers still need to be written.

FWIW I have bought one with the intention of running OpenBSD.

I'm on the fence and may get one too, as t'would be great to have OpenBSD
running on your phone. Just remember that the road there is paved with
projects (e.g. MeeGo, OpenMoko) that died out against one brutal fact: making a
working, useful smartphone environment is bloody hard. You'd probably
want oFono for the telephony stack (it's what UBTouch uses), as well as
various kernel drivers that Patrick mentioned.


Yeah 100%, I am not delusional, I expect it to be painful but at the same time hopefully fun and educational. probably a little masochistic

It would definitely be good to have OpenBSD on the phone.

I'll post back one I receive it.
