Re: Maemo-Leste pre-alpha announcement
 

Github page for the Droid 4 repo seems to be down?

https://github.com/maemo-leste/droid4-linux

Would be glad to mirror it somewhere if it can be recovered.

Works for me... maybe there was a temporary outage?

Re: Maemo-Leste pre-alpha announcement
 

It is broken for me as well, but well, I guess it was a just matter of time things to start breaking up since M$ bought github.

Re: Maemo-Leste pre-alpha announcement
 

FYI, related to droid4, I just posted some more droid4-kexecboot instructions to github. It might be of interest to folks who no longer need the old stock install on droid 4 and want just basic LineageOS images.

The instructions also contain some more info on how to use mmcblk1p25 emstorage 8GB partition for Linux distros. See files PARTITIONS and INSTALL at:

https://github.com/tmlind/droid4-kexecboot

Probably best to stick to the micro-SD for Maemo Leste install images for now though.. But there should not be anything stopping people installing Maemo Leste to the mmcblk1p25 partition :)

Thanks - this is great!

On a related note, Parazyd gave a talk at the Devuan conference yesterday - using a Droid 4. Presentation and demo in one:

Freemangordon has been doing a lot of work on connui-cellular, the modem framework and UI that we need in place to integrate ofono, the work has now been packaged. It lacks any ofono integration (I'm supposed to write that soon), but here are two screenshots showing it in action:

Woohoo - we really are getting there.

Next for this will be ofono support for connui-cellular and writing the ofono icd plugin for gprs data.

Re: Maemo-Leste pre-alpha announcement
 

Stupid question: can we port things like osso-notes to Leste even though it's closed source?

Re: Maemo-Leste pre-alpha announcement
 

The biggest issue would be that it is armel binary, but we decided to drop armel support recently. The reasoning being that there is no working armel SGX driver.

Re: Maemo-Leste pre-alpha announcement
 

Which device has currently the best support, droid 4 or n900? In other words, should I buy a droid4?

Re: Maemo-Leste pre-alpha announcement
 

Good question.

Personally I am waiting for more stable audio in Leste...
out of either the n900 or the nexus 5
I have a keen desire to utilize rakarrack and other real time effects processors...
Until then ...it is Fremantle on my n900 running Gnome Tool Kit Guitar Effects Processor (GTKgep is less a mouthful to say)
And messing with attempted containerization of effects processors on a nexus 5 with buntu touch
