Re: Adobe Flash for XO-4 and XO-1.75
It's command line, any work for any x86 apps to run through it would need to be done.

Do you know if there has been any work on this? In the past OLPC has worked with deployments to get their custom activities updated to be more platform independent. In general most applications available in Fedora are now compiled for ARM automatically as well. Adobe Flash support is available for 11.3.1 and 12.1.0 for XO-1.75 (along with accelerated video playback in the latter) but I would not be the person to know their licensing. Contact whomever you are working with at OLPC (for sales/deployment/etc.) for details. So there has already been some deployment with XO-1.75? I'll try to talk about this with responsible person. I hope they won't charge for the license though.

Adobe Flash for XO-4 and XO-1.75

Re: Adobe Flash for XO-4 and XO-1.75
To the best of my knowledge, the XO-1.75 and XO-4 have no hardware-level x86 compatibility. They use processors that use the ARM architecture. If you absolutely need x86 support on these platforms and cannot recompile/rebuild code, the qemu platform might be able to help.
