Ubuntu (dapper) is great for home using, but there is nothing better then our good and old friend Debian for devel :). While using Ubuntu as development platform, I was able to build minimo for i386 and arm, but always when I tried run it on n770/maemo2.0 it failed. Since then, I've been spending part of my rare free time producing debug builds, strace'ing it, blablabla and nothing 'till today.
So unintentionally I did it all again using a fresh debian sarge machine (set up with same toolchain, rootstraps, compilers). Follows the results:

I am cleaning patches up just now and .deb is about to upload.

Great! So it's now like waiting for Christmas to wait for you .deb ... :-)
That is GREAT.
Waiting for your .deb release.
Wish it support displaying Chinese.
Man, and I just sold my 770 this week to help pay for my new MacBook. I will miss it, and especially your constant tweaking of Minimo to run on the device. I'll be watching, but without the ability to try it on a device anymore.
Still waiting for your release. I wish you all the best that you'll have it out soon :-)
what a shame , jay. You had been one of my best testers :) Many Thanks
anyway, I think you will buy another one soon. Trust to me ;)
anonymous, (maybe ah.sima)
do you have any chinese test case ?
Antonio,
Please test the yahoo chinese website:
http://tw.yahoo.com/
and
US sina website
http://home.sina.com/
they are traditional chinese
and
http://www.sina.com.cn/
for simplified chinese website
The chinese font is simhei.ttf
Many thanks for doing this.
when will your .deb finally be there?
I haven't released it yet because maemo image release misses some libraries at run-time. Anyway, I solved it copying them from armel-sdk rootstrap to minimo's lib directory on the device, and it worked fine. Now I have just to repack minimo with these libraries within .deb
on monday, for sure ...
thanks for your waiting :)
monday will be a great day :-)
thank you
Very pretty site! Keep working. thnx!
