mgolisch | are there any efforts to port that mobile stuff to non x86 archs? | 20:20 |
---|---|---|
mgolisch | i mean there are a lot more mobile/embeded devices which dont have x86 cpus | 20:21 |
persia | mgolisch: Most of it is based on packages in the archives, and most of those are compiled for every architecture Ubuntu supports. | 20:25 |
persia | There are some special package changes for lpia for some packages, but those are considered bugs, and probably ought be fixed. | 20:25 |
persia | For actual devices, I suspect the only other architecture in Ubuntu for which you might find a suitable device is powerpc, but most of the powerpc handhelds are fairly low-spec, and may not meet the base requirements. | 20:26 |
mgolisch | i see, i thought more about nokias tablets or something, but ubuntu doesnt support arm if iam not wrong | 20:27 |
mgolisch | and i guess their processor might actualy be too slow | 20:28 |
persia | No. Ubuntu doesn't currently build for ARM. There was talk about it at the past UDS, and a couple community efforts to recompile everything for ARM, but nothing official as of yet. | 20:28 |
mgolisch | ok | 20:32 |
ogra | .oO(you could try to find a sparc handheld) | 21:03 |
suihkulokki | ogra: handheld might be tricky, but netgear sells a NAS with sparc | 21:05 |
ogra | handheld might be a bit hot i bet :) | 21:06 |
persia | There was also the Tadpole series of sparc notebooks. | 21:26 |
