Hi,

in my Hackweek project[1] I tested Orange Pi PC board[2] with openSUSE. 
This is what I found:

There is Tumbleweed image with downstream kernel 3.4.39 [3]
- it works with problems, I hit some incompatible IOCTL in V4L2 driver
  and kernel firmware loading does not work
- the kernel can be recompiled from these sources [4]


Adding support to mainline is in progress:
- U-boot 2016.01-rc2 can boot
- I recompiled Tumbleweed kernel with patches from lkml[5]. It boots 
  with gpio and mmc card working. There seems to be also some patches 
  for usb support, but I was not able to identify, what patch exactly
  is needed.
- I think I will try it again in 3 months or so


I also tried to package OpenCV 3.0 library with NEON support [6]
- the package is here [7], it needs more work on qt5 spec file
- in my python code[8] I got about 25% higher fps compared to OpenCV 2
