well that's a starting point. if we were able to collect enought fund, we likely would have faster improvements. a dev free to code what he like without dealing with to-survive works, would be much more involved, focused,stimulated both to doing more just to earn money and being appreciated. just like artist in the past: he had to make great things, being supported economically by lords of courts,without thinking to mantein themselves...its not a surprise that period gave us some of awesome art's pieces

Hey all,

The adaptation work done in Sailfish is applicable to Nemo Mobile as well. For example, the Fairphone 2 and Puzzlephone will have _community_ adaptation coming forth. So its basically independed of Jolla as a company. Same goes with Raspberry Pi 2, heck, you can build your own phone, but with free software, on top of non-free hardware at this case.

See above for example.

Thanks locusf!
So, as i understood, it is 100% sure, that the Sailfish community port will run on the fairphone 2 / puzzlephone.
Thinking about to buy a fairphone, but without sailfish, it just one good, but expensive android phone....

Re: NEMO MOBILE, why such a little interest from sailors?
 

I just wanted to say that I would be interested in joining the effort. I've been trying to figure out whether the nemo project was still alive at all for a while now but without much success.

Finally having a proper, free OS for my N9 would be brilliant and certainly a cause worth contributing to.

Re: NEMO MOBILE, why such a little interest from sailors?
 

thank you cockroach..arr you a developer??

Re: NEMO MOBILE, why such a little interest from sailors?
 

I do develop software in real life, yes. Unfortunately I just read in another thread that the N9 is no longer supported.

Re: NEMO MOBILE, why such a little interest from sailors?
 

no, i read in that thread but they was referring to n900

Re: NEMO MOBILE, why such a little interest from sailors?
 

True, but the issue seems to be the graphics driver and AFAIK the N9 and the N900 use the same graphics chip.

Anyway, I'll check whether I can get this to run at all on my N9 before I sign up :)

Re: NEMO MOBILE, why such a little interest from sailors?
 

Sure, but you can hold on n9 forever..why dont switch to a more recent device? you would have an open source os, but with better hardware.

Re: NEMO MOBILE, why such a little interest from sailors?
 

Is there a particular phone that you would recommend for Nemo? I quite like the N9, it's nice and small and has a great screen. Most other phones are way too large for my tast.

Plus there's the thing where I prefer using devices that I own to just throwing them away. Good, well-documented and open hardware on the other hand might make me reconsider. :)
