If it was one of the newer clam shells it was 640x480 with no scaling. Enlightenment works okay on them, but it can be a real resource hog.

Yes we can have it, in fact, you can download the ready to install package from angstrom website.

Only problem now is, there is no proper documentation or instructions on how to install.

sorry for my question . . . but we would still use the same software that we do now . . . for the N800 and the same ripo's ?? right ??

or that it would give the n800 an extra boost ?? more software and more stuff to do with it ??

thanks

No, once you flash to Angstrom, it no longer supports the hilden apps. It will only support the Angstrom repo for apps. It would give you more apps to play with, but a lot of them are in the same not quite done, needs a bit more polish as most of the third party maemo apps.

I'm working on getting Angstrom running on my N770. I have ~lekernel~'s bootloader from his website http://lekernel.lya.eu/fbbmenu770.html so I can boot from the MMC slot and have managed to compile the minimal and console images with success. Currently compiling the X11 image, but that takes time so I'll have to provide an update on how that goes. This method is nice because I don't have to wear out my internal flash and dual booting prevents me from making any major screw-ups.

Interesting, another bootmenu solution :-) This one uses text console and has hardcoded options. You may check also http://fanoush.wz.cz/maemo/#initfs it should work too and provide more options.

And if it doesn't work, we could fix it, simple replacement for nokia text2screen command that uses console directly (instead of drawing fonts) should be enough for it to work in console mode too.

Looks nice, thanks for the link. After I get a good xorg session up I might be brave enough to try a different boot menu, especially if it gives me the ability to boot from multiple partitions on one MMC. So far my image is coming along well and has gotten past the packages that weren't compiling in the past. Only 1,503 tasks left to go... I remain cautiously optimistic.

ca0abinary: I am trying to compile a vanilla angstrom x11 image for 770, too. I got an error about the x-server not being available for nokia770-arch. How did you manage to step that hurdle ?
