Minimo 0.2 on OLPC

Today Francisco Keppler and I took a free time off to check the feasibility of running Minimo on OLPC and these what we got:

minimo on OLPC


hack hack hack ...

Nice, isn't it ? Results are really promissing: minimo fits to the environment, scrolls fast and it is now very user friendly. Well, it is basically a raw version on minimo 0.2 (pulled down from MOZILLA_1_8_BRANCH on Mozilla CVS) running on a debian running a OLPC hardware (by francisco keppler).

ps: a HOWTO is coming ...
ps2: minimo maemo port 0.2 is coming soon as well ;)

Does this mean we 'll be able to use minimo on desktop linux too? It's very desirable for old hardware.
