Would Lakka work on this http://en.chuwi.com/product/items/Chuwi-Hi12.html Does anyone have any experience running lakka on a tablet, would be cool to get more information on this.
If you can boot on usb you can try this nightly build (32bit or 64bit).
You will need to check which UEFI mode 32bit or 64bit (it should be 64bit) and disable secure boot.
I don’t have it, so I can’t try sadly. I would like to know before I buy, not much information about tablet support from lakka.
The only issue I can see is it being a cherry trail Atom. As I don’t have any experience with those other than the Atoms being a bit of a pain… If they are anything like the Bay trail atoms, you will find that Linux will have all sorts of fun issues like sound not working, the rotation of the screen will be wrong (and not being easy to rotate it differently), or networking won’t work (not really expected to work on a Lakka build) so games would have to be loaded using an external means. Then there is also the potential for it to be running with a video driver that isn’t useful, then you end up with piss poor performance in 3d games and some 2d games.
Lakka works on Lattepanda and Intel Compute Stick.
The main thing is to get the device to boot on usb.
This is what I was afraid of, guess building a mini itx is the way to go, would have been cool to have a portable lakka though. 
Just because Lakka works on the base hardware in the forms of stick computers and Dev boards, doesn’t mean that the sound hardware of the tablet (which may run on a very different hardware set than the Compute stick or the Lattepanda) is going to work without some heavy compiling and configuration, and the screen rotation thing is something I have experienced with attempting Linux on similar hardware Now Graphics may work, but it is still an Atom.
There are easier ways to get a mobile/portable setup., for example if you hit up microcenter (or similar stores that have hobby electronics sections, you can pick up a 7 inch touch screen (from raspberrypi creators) a case to stick it in, and a pi 2/3 From there you have a basic and easy to set up mobile set up. Just get a large cell phone backup battery or something if you intend to do it without access to a power plug.

Thats awesome, I already have a Raspberry pi 3, but if you use a battery with that case and screen, how do you turn it on and off (the raspberry pi 3 doesn’t have a power-switch build in after all.
That is where the inline switch is for the power that was mentioned in the shopping list comes into play. This can be a modified USB cord, or an entire breakout board that the USB is passed through. I have seen a few on various sites that take the micro in and have a small patch cable (about 2-3 inches long) that goes from the little switch board to the pi. Or you know, you could get a battery that has an on off switch already built in (some do exist, just not easy to find.) There are even Solar options available if you feel like being green about your gaming.
Just make sure that when you turn the system off to run shutdown first. otherwise you will corrupt your SD card.
Are there any known issues with sound drivers on the Computer Sticks? I installed on mine and everything works except no sound to TV through HDMI. SSH aplay -l shows no soundcards found.
