maemo.org - Talk - MeeGo hardware adaptation for N900

Maybe if you buy a device. I suspect that, like the other non-Open parts of Android, it'll be missing when Cyanogen releases his versions of Android 2.2. I expect the same will be true for community releases of MeeGo for the N900, unless Adobe decides to be benevolent.

Thus the problem with Flash. Perhaps we should look into making Gnash not suck?

Please don't bug his team with questions about Ovi, Skype, Flash etc. The good thread for this is N900 community support for the future MeeGo based release from Nokia.

Thank you!

Are we able to use a desktop environment with the first release, like the recent MeeGo release for vehicles? It contained Xfce IIRC. And are you in position to explain what "due time" means, is it like weeks or months :) .

Re: MeeGo hardware adaptation for N900

I'm probably talking crap, but,
Meego will run in some way as it is being developed on the N900, yes?
The main problem is the resistive screen?
If, say, a third party company were to make a drop in replacement capacitive screen, I'm assuming that the hardware could take it as it's the same as the iCrap.
I know nothing about development, but how hard would it be to modify the screen driver? What about the milestone driver?

Capacitive screens require a special controller chip, not just a driver. You'd have to either redesign the board or go blue-wire crazy to rewire things as they are.

Re: MeeGo hardware adaptation for N900

Damn there goes that plan lol, but I thought the n900 used the exact same chipset..?

That release is CLI/Terminal only.

You can install it, highly unrecommended!

Try dual boot.
