Someone gave me a Hisense C11 Chromebook and I’m wondering if there’s absolutely anything I can do with it. It seems like a piece of junk and the Linux stuff I’ve seen for Chromebooks specify that they don’t work with the ARM processor. Is there any distro that would work on it? Any other ideas about how to repurpose it?
Note: I don’t have direct access to an Ethernet cable/router for setup. Also don’t have the most technical knowhow.
It’s ‘just enough OS to run Kodi.’
I’ve done away with all rokus and apple TVs.
I use an emby server addon to play my local media. It has addons for streaming services, visualizers for music, RSS feeds on the Ui, screensavers that use my local pictures, integrates with home assistant, and libreelec has docker addons for more cool stuff!
No tracking, one easy to use UI for everything I’m trying to enjoy, and less attack platform for ads.
It’s cool!
