The only way till now was to install the Meego based image, but this solution is not appropriate for development since the repositories are scarce in packages. I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for, but I have PA running on the EXOPC under Kubuntu and it's working just fine as far as I can tell. I downloaded the Kubuntu Active image here http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu-active/releases/12.04/release/ My EXOPC is actually booting five operating systems off the 64Gb SSD right now, so it's a pretty good development environment (smile): MeeGo/Wetab, Ubuntu (Unity and Gnome), Kubuntu (PA), Windows 8 Release Preview (Metro UI), and Android x-86. I wrote this article outlining the general guidelines on how to get the EXOPC to multi-boot http://appdeveloper.intel.com/en-us/blog/2011/07/07/creating-multi-boot-exopc-tablet HTH, -Peter___ Active mailing list Active@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/active
Installing plasma active (PA) on Balsam Professional fails
Hi I am trying to setup a development environent for PA using an ExoPC tablet. The only way till now was to install the Meego based image, but this solution is not appropriate for development since the repositories are scarce in packages. I have followed the instructions for installing PA on Balsam Professional with Balsam-Professional-12.1-USB-Install-i586.img and http://community.kde.org/Plasma/Active/Installation#Installation_on_Balsam_Professional, but after installing PA from repository the KDE desktop becomes unusable. Trying to install PA from source seems to be difficult, because one needs to compile first KDE. I have tried several times, but with no luck and there are no clear instructions on PA site. So, I think that we need a development environment for PA based on some well known Linux distribution (personally I prefer openSUSE) if we want to have more applications developed for this platform. Please share your thoughts and experiences. regards -- Bogdan ___ Active mailing list Active@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/active

Our prefered way is to install the PA2 Image, and then updating via the Repositories like described there: http://community.open- slx.com/articles.php?article_id=398 But thank you very much, we have to update the Link.

I don't think that can be. openSUSE don't support PA anymore. If you need more information don't hesitate to ask :-) -- Sincerly yours Sascha Manns Community Agent open-slx GmbH Web (business): http://www.open-slx.com Web (private): http://saigkill.homelinux.net ___ Active mailing list Active@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/active

This is exactly what I need, I would put this option (install PA2 with balsam, then update) as an option for developpers. regards -- Bogdan ___ Active mailing list Active@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/active
