I’m messing around with my OrangePi5 again, gonna experiment with Armbian and DietPi again. As both offer a minimal installer, I’ll want to add a DE, or at least a graphical interface that can run at boot and let me control it with a bluetooth controller.

If not a full DE, just what packages should I experiment with?

    Do you have an existing controller you’re planning to use, or will you be buying one? There are many small, inexpensive combination keyboards and track pads which work via Bluetooth or come with a 2.4 Ghz dongle. I picked one up for about $20 a couple of years back and it works great.
