So I have second of this type of baytrail battery powered mini PC. This 
one from ainol which has a much bigger battery, but crappier wifi.

Anyways, I went digging for ubuntu on baytail, and came across some 
builds from a third party that intergrating all the various bits and 
pieces, along with patching in progress kernel support.

I remember hearing about this guys work years ago, and it seems the dev 
community is getting closer to sorting out almost all the kinks.

Gave the alpha of lubuntu 17.10 a try, and wifi and battery info work 
out of box. These were my biggest wants.
