*faint*......

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

Is it the video or is there really so much lag? I know this is a pre-alpha... just asking.

Thanks

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

can't we just use the rootfs image provided at meego-codedrop?

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

There are already images. One for qemu and one for the N900. No need to create your own image.

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

and how do i flash the 'meego-codedrop-arm-n900-closed-201003311635.ubiimg'-image? just by using the flasher3.5 as i would flash a PR1.2 maemo image? or is that wrong?

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

Ah damn, those are still the old images without UX.... Sorry....

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

nevermind :)

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

can tell us how to flash these? because their not in a format flasher recognises...

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

The ubiimg is an -old image- from May that includes none of what was just released. You will need to follow the instructions linked to by Tiboric to build an image yourself.

DO NOT TRY TO PUT THE AAVA MOBILE IMAGE ON YOUR PHONE, IT ABSOLUTELY WILL NOT WORK.

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

For Developers who wish to build an N900 image Download the N900 kickstart file.

Do you read?

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

Can anyone share their image?
I would build it myself but I'm on vacation and got no fedora at hand....

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

almost second guessed myself then... thanks for the backup.

once some ones built this image. can they upload as Im still at work at the min...

but I have flasher installed on this computer.

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

It's laggy. They said it would be buggy so i'm not surprised by this. It should be fixed by 1.1

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

Building using the kickstart file downloaded from the Nokia code drop site creates an image that uses Nokia non-free bits. Redistributing those without permission can get you into hot water.

If you want an image without building it yourself, waiting for an image to be uploaded is your best bet.

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

on the video is not a n900 ;) i guess a n900 is more powerful than the aava moorestown

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

I was thinking this too.. but I believe that image would include the Nokia Proprietary stuff so probably not...

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

well that's a bummer, specially if the image is men't to be distributed anyway...

Thanks anyway..

arghh maybe should just get a Fedora VM..

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June

looks like its out now?

why isnt there a N900 Image?

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

Past four pages or so man :p

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

From meego-dev mailing list, in reply to my question:

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

guess I'll have to wait a few hours till I get home. didn't think about proprietary.

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

do i need linux to build an image????
i still have windows xp so...

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

yes you need linux to built it

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

These instructions are well suited for my Fedora 12

Hah for the first time instructions other than Debian/Ubuntu :D

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

If it runs it anything like my macbook runs it, then "plays" means "barely, and at low FPS even with all the options turned down."

Still an impressive feat for a handset, but I wouldn't be shocked at the total lack of battery life ;)

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

u can use vm to install linux

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

Building image for n900 requers fedora...such a crap...

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

Has pointed out by ryanl33x1511 you could run a VM such as VirtualBox...

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

It looks way more polished and finished in the video than what I was expecting.

I bought an N900 last week. It should be here this week. If I see comments that Meego is half way stable/usable, I am going to skip the whole Maemo experience and jump right to Meego.

I'm itching to develop some apps that use Bluetooth and the GPS. Can I start doing this now ?

Thanks !

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

i really wonder about this:

Supported Hardware
Aava Mobile Intel Moorestown platform EV2
Aava Mobile Intel Moorestown platform DV1

Anybody said Meego Development is useing the N900 as Development Device. So is the Supported Hardware not the N900 anymore this would be really bad for us i guess..

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

OK hit some errors on the first build attempt:


Run mode: legacy
Geting repomd.xml from repo meego-trunk...

Error: failed to create image : URLGrabber error: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404 : http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/devel/tr...ata/repomd.xml : http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/devel/tr...ata/repomd.xml

looks like an unlocked iOS with a taste of Android & webOS .. which is a good thing right ?

no it's not good , it's AWESOME !

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

kernel 2.6.35(-rc3) has huge performance regressions. As the weeks go on meego will update the kernel and performance should improve a lot.

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

It was said in earlier announcements that the N900 is no longer being support while devs are using it for testing MeeGo, so while the bits are there i guess its up to us to make it work fully..

Kinda a suck, that nokia is just ditching the N900...

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

nokia could be in the backseat. Intel infront and driving. Not good for n900 if that's is the case. :(

See earlier post by w00t. Btw how does good news generate so much FUD? This a pre-alpha release. I am actually shocked that it looks so functional.

Re: Looks like the MeeGo Handset UX is almost out - Due 30 June
 

Im guessing they are putting a lot of overdrive into this....

which is fine and all, i just hate their ditching the N900.. specially if most of what's needed is there to fully support it...
