[20:20] <mgolisch> are there any efforts to port that mobile stuff to non x86 archs?
[20:21] <mgolisch> i mean there are a lot more mobile/embeded devices which dont have x86 cpus
[20:25] <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.
[20:26] <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.
[20:27] <mgolisch> i see, i thought more about nokias tablets or something, but ubuntu doesnt support arm if iam not wrong
[20:28] <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.
[20:32] <mgolisch> ok
[21:03] <ogra> .oO(you could try to find a sparc handheld)
[21:05] <suihkulokki> ogra: handheld might be tricky, but netgear sells a NAS with sparc
[21:06] <ogra> handheld might be a bit hot i bet :)
[21:26] <persia> There was also the Tadpole series of sparc notebooks.
