Thats some good news. Im currently checking debian on orange pi plus. If you like you can look what it is tweeting at https://twitter.com/orangepiforum
Downloaded Raspian from Baidu about 45min, flashed to sdcard, booted Orange Pi Plus but HDMI signal to TV not proper. Access Orange. Pi by SSH and loaded Tightvnc server and connected OK from tightvnc client to desktop. Any solution for HDMI connection work proper.
I have briefly booted the raspbian and the lubuntu both seems to work except that I am unable to shutdown the lubuntu correctly (I have to remove power plug), I haven't time to check it deeper! For both I have used my TV connected to HDMI! @fpgomes check if your HDMI plug is correctly seated in HDMI socket of your OPI some time (especially when board is new) you have to push a little bit harder!
