They both share same MeeGo handsets core and touch framework IIRC, so the same drivers should work for both Harmattan and MeeGo(.com) right?
If so, will be able to run Harmattan's UI (that got leaked a few days ago) on N900?

Are you saying I can solve this inside something like an xorg.conf file?

I'm trying to push the envelope, so I thought if I do things like disable double-buffering in GTK widgets, for example, I can avoid a performance hit. See what I mean? I'm a little lost. Please help this ignorant fool.

But, by nature of being compatible, most things written for one should work on the other either way... it will just need to be re-packaged.

Now it seems nothing will come out of Nokia on the future of the N900 for either Maemo or Meego so now it really is looking like it is down to this community to upgrade it's os, and without the full drivers from Nokia! what a daunting task.
Oh well that says it all really and as for this community...... it will most probably move on to the next device and forget this one simply because that is what Nokia want to happen it seems.

isnt meego multitouch enabled? won't the n900 fail this requirement?
the market is the best judge of a company's performance and right now, nokia seems to be bearing the fruit of its own destruction.

Meego incidently is capable of driving any device but it does require personalisation for this device as it will do as mobile technology progresses for all future meego devices.
The problem is Nokia dont seem to want to give the N900 Meego and that IS a big problem for us considering some of the drivers are not open source.
