persia | StevenK: Apropos to the discussion in -devel, there was some talk last night (involving Whoopie and slytherin) about advantages of updating to the 4.x stack for BlueZ. Do you have an opinion on that? | 08:30 |
---|---|---|
StevenK | persia: Yes. 4.x is not stable, and FF is very close. :-) | 08:32 |
persia | StevenK: That was my feeling. I'm glad to hear it confirmed. | 08:32 |

futhar | this question may sound stipid :) but is it posible to install the ubuntu mobile on a smart phone? | 15:06 |
persia | futhar: Only if the smart phone is implemented wth Ubuntu Mobile compatible hardware. As far as I know, only the Sharp D4 meets that criteria now, and I suspect that significant post-installation customisation is required for an ideal arrangement. | 15:09 |
persia | That said, I wouldn't install Ubuntu Mobile on something I intended to use as a phone, as I don't believe the applications to handle telephony are currently mature enough (most apps seem to concentrate on VoIP, rather than on VoGSM or the like) | 15:10 |
futhar | the phone i want to install ubuntu mobile is lilbit old so it looks like the phone is un ubuntu compatible :) but i can always try :D | 15:12 |
futhar | is there a list of the compatible smart phones | 15:14 |
persia | There isn't. I keep meaning to add a testing section to the wiki, but have so far failed to do so. | 15:15 |
persia | Basically, you need one with an lpia processor (Intel A100, A110, or Atom). | 15:15 |
persia | Beyond that the requirements are usually met (or at least I've not yet seen such a device with reported specs that couldn't run Ubuntu Moblie, albeit perhaps with some post-install tweaking) | 15:16 |
futhar | hmmmmmm | 15:16 |
futhar | my phone uses Symbian OS v7.0, UIQ v2.0 UI but i dont know what kind of processor it has | 15:17 |
persia | futhar: Which phone? | 15:17 |
* persia suspects ARM, but may be mistaken | 15:18 | |
futhar | p900 | 15:19 |
futhar | but i have a nokia 9300 too | 15:19 |
suihkulokki | first you need to get linux kernel booted on it, then you can start thinking about distributions such ubuntu.. | 15:20 |
futhar | you are right | 15:21 |
persia | futhar: P900 is ARM9@156MHz (not sure which flavour), and 9300 is OMAP 1510 @ 150 MHZ. Even if you got a kernel booting, I'd recommend something more lightweight for those devices. | 15:23 |
futhar | such as? | 15:40 |
persia | futhar: I ran a QTopia environment on a 200MHz XScale for a while, but that was years ago, so I'm not sure that there isn't something better for smaller/older devices now (and no, I don't have any good suggestions). | 15:49 |
futhar | persia: sorry just this last stupid question: the max memory storage of the phone is software or hardware limit? | 15:55 |
persia | futhar: Both. For most phones currently available, it's more likely to be HW, as most of the software stacks will allow 4G, but hardware rarely allows more than 1 or 2. | 16:00 |
