This is PURE OWNAGE! Cold Blooded ownage.
And no, its not slow. Its very fast. Applications don't feel like they have been ported. They run like they were meant to run natively.
Which makes me think, why did nokia ever come up with maemo. And if they did, why didn't they try to port the entire linux to maemo instead of having community develop applications from ground up. Its like re-inventing the wheel.
I am still surprised how easy it is to install new applications. Very cool.
The shift key doesn't work right now but this is way way cool to complain about any thing. I do wish that you upload the deb to garage.maemo so its easy to find as times goes.
THis is very cool. And the best thing is nothing has changed on the original maemo. Nothing breaks there. That entire piece is untouched and suddenly we have the entire power of linux at our hands.
Now I only need to figure how to run matlab on this
(That would be slow!)
Thanks for this pioneering work (every one who has been involved in this ladder, and biggest thanks to Qole for the final HUGE HUGE leap!)
I hope and wish that maemo goes in this direction. There is no need of developing new applications. All they need to do is some how port the entire linux.
