Re: [Trisquel-users] Prospects of a GNU/Linux Tablet

[matt . ivie]

I'm currently running Replicant on my Nexus S. There are a lot of things  
about it I don't like. For one, there are no real good hardware candidates to  
use that have good privacy. The other is that getting everything to work on  
the phone using only free software is not currently possible. Also, I  
personally don't think Android is that amazing. Maybe it's okay for a smaller  
device like a phone(tracking device) but for a tablet I'd prefer GNU/Linux  
running some type of touch-friendly interface.

There is a project out there called PengPod (  
http://pengpod.com/products/pengpod1000 ). It looks like it's using the  
Allwinner A10 SoC. Like I said before, I'm curious as to whether GNU/Linux  
will run that with all free drivers and firmware.
