So, I wanted to know if there is a port of MeeGo for the Touchpad, and if not maybe we can get some people to port it over that way we can triple boot MeeGo, WebOS, and Android. Thanks yall.
After reading your other thread I thought it was a bit of a fail, but this is a more interesting idea Can't see why it wouldn't work

I dunno why?
Meego is open source

meego is made for the intel moorestown..... I don't think snapdragon is supported... The UI is great and would be wonderful on the hp touchpad
they ported meego on HD2 and HD2 is a snapdragon .. so it must be possible
but i fear that storage limitation might become a problem at some point specially for 16gb touchpads
MeeGo begin to port it to all arm processesors. I'm tracking for tegra but I saw that there are snapdragon too.

From what I read Acer has plans for an Iconia M500 tablet, which afaik it looks similar to the rest of the 500 range. However, not sure it's Atom based like the W500(Windows), or Tegra 2 like the A500(Android). I guess maybe the advantage would be running a slew of Arm based RPM packaged software(for ex. Chrome, and Banshee), while having a nice tablet friendly interface? Would be neat to have MeeGo, Android and WebOS triple booting on the Touchpad.

i think LG Meego handset will come first before this Nokia N9.
But seriously i m amazed by this Design, first time By Nokia.
As we all know How much hype created during N8 this seems far more better than N8

I completely agree. That was my first thought when watching this video. If it doesn't have an ample amount of apps available to users, it'll go no where even if it is a fantastic phone.
MeeGo doesn't really matter. When the phone comes out, the main question will be "When will somebody put CyanogenMod 7 on it?" Notice I didn't use "how" or even "why". It's a when. And WHEN that floodgate opens... we just might have a bonafide camera phone.

I had a Nokia N900 for a while. Good phone, really good developer community. It's just a shame that they've stuck so firmly to their own OSs for so long. If they're going to go WP7 that's a step in the right direction but android would win them a lot of good favour.

IMO it's much easier to write apps for MeeGo than Android. MeeGo uses the cross-platform (read: porting of desktop KDE apps to the mobile has already started) Qt Framework, which has a really nice API (Qt Mobility espacially for smartphones). It's really a joy to use this toolkit. All your developed applications can run on your desktop OS (Linux, Windows, Mac OS) and on your phones and tablets (Android, MeeGo, iOS port is currently developed..).
I'd love to see a port of this OS to some (more) Android phones. I tried to run it under my Desire HD, but I can't get the software rendering to work.
now i think i got the reason to purchase this phone

So with the (likely) availability of this at 0600 GMT tomorrow, what are you going to do with it when yours arrives?
Interesting, but the poor quality of the datasheet greatly limits its uselessness. Also the main CPU is pretty weak.
A BeagleBone ($90) can do far more, and a PandaBoard ($180) is as powerful as a GNex. Both have far better documentation for the hardware on the board.

Need to dl moar ram for that
I've been following the Raspberry Pi for a while now, thinking of getting one and using it for a media sever or seedbox. Cheap, affordable, made for something simple, yep looks like it'll be fun
The only problem is the demand brought down both web sites that are selling the thing, and the available stock sold out in in a matter of hours. The sites are now back to normal but lead time is out to the end of April!
At least as they are being distributed through RS and Farnell, so they can now source a manufacturer capable of bashing together the required number of units fast enough. When they do turn up, they have got the infrastructure to get them out there, to those eager to gets their hands on one.
Anybody remember the delays trying to get your hands on the original Sinclair ZX80? Showing my age here, I'm afraid.
It looks like a very interesting piece of work, more a solution looking for a problem. I will try to get my hands on one when the all the hoo hah dies down a bit.
Time to roll your sleeves up and brush up your Linux skills. Get a GNU ARM C compiler running on it and let the fun begin.
How will you eat yours?

From the FAQ:
Will it run Android?
If someone in the community can port a version of Android to work with 256MB of RAM, then it’ll run on the Raspberry Pi.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So there's your answer: limited by 256 MB of ram. You would probably see similar performance to that of the samsung intercept . It has only 256 MB RAM on it. it even runs android 2.2!! http://www.virginmobileusa.com/cell-phones/samsung-intercept-phone.jsp
So, if anyone is willing to port android 2.2 yes, it can run android. Not very fast, but possible. Also, it will be able to run a chinese hacked version of flash that is made to run on armv6
my Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 has an ARMv6 too with 600mhz and only 168 MB RAM and i runs Gingerbread good so this little thing should do this to but i am not very familiar with this hardware so forgive mistakes ;-)
The R.Pi has same amount of ram as a Motorola backflip and its CPU is 200mhz faster then a moto backflip. I gave my lil sister my old moto backflip running cm7 2.3, so its possible to get gingerbread on the R.Pi Get that on it and I'm sold

Ahh, Amiga...good old days indeed! True preemptive multitasking OS, intuitive GUI in Workbench, and the graphics and sound fidelity... mmm... in 1987! Microsoft could not boast of that complete set of features in a consumer OS until Win 95. After my C64 I briefly had an Amiga. Then I moved to the States and got an Intel 386 box running MS-DOS and Win 3.1. Faster chip, more memory, and more hardware flexibility, to be sure...but the OS was a giant step back.

I've seen gingerbread run on lower spec'd armv6 phones, even cm9, though it's a stretch. I don't see why it wouldn't run on an rpi.
I just got mine a couple days ago and I fully intend to port android to it. If there are a few interested people, which there seem to be, we should get a forum specifically for rpi/android development (Though I have no idea how I'd go about that).
The Raspi is very tight on ram and processor power. So I'm not so sure if Android is a good choice for it, especially if you want some media center kind of application.
I think compiling the code natively is the better choice. There seems to be some development with XBMC going on - I think that will work out better.
Well - I'll see it tomorrow, because then I'll get mine
I would think at the very least 2.1 should be doable, but I would only install it to play around to be honest. I will probably run raspbmc on mine when I get it (also tomorrow ); I would however, really like to have android on it just so I can have access to hulu plus/netflix content easily.

Doubtful was the wrong word, sorry. Pointless would have been more appropriate. Yes it can but with the limits of the Pi why would you. Wait for the native XBMC port to happen if you want any sort of fun with it.

Well, i own a X10 Mini Pro that has an ARM v6 CPU and 256MB of RAM. Guess what: it's running CM9 fluently...
Just got my Raspberry Pi.
I too don't why why it wouldn't run android well, my ZTE Blade with 600mhz armv6 processor runs ICS faster than gingerbread ran on it... at the moment of writing it's even more fluid in the menus/notification drop down than my HTC Sensation...
I lack the skills to do anything about it myself but I'd be happy to test/ report bugs if someone starts a port!
Was wondering if somebody fluent in the Linux OS could help me choose a good Linux distro. Currently running LMDE, but it seems as if my laptops battery pluments. I have a high capacity 6-cell battery which usually lasts me 6-7 hours on windows. But only lasts 4 hours or less in LMDE. Anyways I'm looking for something that has just about everything working out of the box. LMDE had my WiFi drivers... my graphics drivers... which Linux is picky with my radeon GPU. My laptop is
HP Pavilion Dv6z quad edition
AMD A8 3550-MX (APU)
Radeon HD Discrete Class Graphics (I believe its a 6220g)
6GB RAM
Etc.

Moved to Off-Topic.
Try Ubuntu, I have it set as a dual boot OS on my desktop and it had most of the drivers I needed.
Ubuntu tends to run "out of the box" without any additional installs or tweaks, so you could try it. Make a live CD and check that everything is working before you install it.
Oops. I should have mentioned I tried Ubuntu 11.10 and it wouldn't display my screen turns out it doesn't like my GPU. Tried 10.04 and it worked... but hardly. Haven't tried 12 yet... might try it and see if it still does the black screen deal.
