I got the moblin/hildon desktop running in a Xephyr window on a Gutsy Tribe 3 desktop. It has promise, but in this Tribe 3 phase, it’s not ready for prime time.
I downloaded Tribe 4 this morning and will play with it over the next few days. We’ll see how it goes.
Well, I am fascinated by the stuff that’s coming down the pipeline. I have been playing with the moblin stuff ( www.moblin.org ). I really think that this is the direction mobile devices should be going.
Now, the extent of my knowledge in the Unix/Linux world is mostly command line based and server knowledge. I am fairly new to display managers and how they work. I downloaded a base gutsy distribution to play with the Ubuntu Mobile stuff and am anxious to play with this interface.
I have gotten the image creator to work and have seen the mobile-ubuntu stuff working in gutsy but in a window. I would really like to put it as the native or default desktop on my UX280P. From what I have read through my google’s, this is a possibility.
I will continue my search and once I learn how it is done, I will post a ‘How I did it’ here.
The search begins!
PS If any of you know if there is a Howto out there already, let me know.
