Since the CuBox i* series of devices use Vivante GPUs and there are
reverse engineered libre drivers called etnaviv for these GPUs, you
should be able to get graphics using solely Debian main and no
proprietary extensions. I note the etnaviv support for libdrm is in
Debian buster and later and the etnaviv support for mesa is in Debian
sid and later. If you would like this on Debian stretch or earlier you
would have to backport Linux, mesa, libdrm and possibly some other
things.
