So, here we are February 2014 and still only the ECS Kabini boards are available. No ASUS XS-A, no MSI or Sapphire or ASRock.

Have you update the latest AMD driver from here- AMD Driver Autodetect?

It is usually related to DirectX/driver when you got this "unable to create gui" message....

ya i agree. i tried other linux distros and got the "kabini not supported" message. guess it's too new. although the laptop cpu versions have been out longer haven't they. i should've waited longer but i needed to replace my old, broken htpc and thought this platform would be a great replacement for my amd e350.
