Good to know, but in my case I was restricted to jessie because at the

And they are a problem child, randomly throwing away both keyboard AND
mouse events FROM ITS OWN CONSOLE. Remote logins don't seem to suffer
near as much. Strangely, that behavior seems to be related to the
reboot, when its bad, sometimes a reboot fixes it, but more often will
get worse, so you just keep rebooting it till its mostly gone away.
Then it will work fine for 3 or 4 months.
Makes it hard to stay the hell outta the bars though. Intermittents with
no explanation bug me... 3 different kernel builds do it, the newer, the
worse it is.
Not this lists problem, just a comment about the sucky arm support in
general. No more main memory than the pi 3b has, xfce is the fawnciest x
install I've tried. Runs an 11 by 54 inch Sheldon Lathe, now about 70yo,
just fine after putting motors and ball screws on it I could control
from software.

The pi installer cannot be defeated. I installed
5 times trying to
get the first user to be named me. I gave up, so on my pi, I am pi.
The only arm install I've found that lets you name the first user is
armbian stretch on an arm64. Its a genuine PITA on a 6 machine home
network.
Hi Gene,
Seems I did defeat it. I installed the latest Raspbian (based on
Stretch) and it did install the Pi user. I then renamed the user and
the home directory, changed the primary group to users.
Everything worked except this recuring kpersonalizer thing. I checked
the kpersonalizerrc file, but it was correct.
In the end I removed the execution permission to kpersonalizer
un /opt/trinity/bin and it seems to do the trick: I can log normaly
into my user.
