My bitter disappointment at yesterday's statement from JackOfAll, who is capable of giving us so much, has not diminshed overnight. I've given up all hope and plans of buying into an ARM based player. I probably know enough Linux to get something running on one of these devices, but what's the point, as I know only too well it would be a poor second best. Where else will I find software that has been highly optimised to the target hardware? ( Patched kernels, optimsed software compiles and much more ) Work I've not seen the like of elsewhere. No wonder JackOfAll has been made lucrative offers.
My own meagre talents don't stretch much beyond user testing, so would be of little help to this project. I've learnt a little about Fedora to do that, grappled with QEMU with some success and I was also forced to develop at least a basic understanding of what made the CSOS image tick, so I'm grateful for that opportunity. It's a tragedy and a terrible waste and loss to the community, if this has all come to an end. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Krisbee's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=59080 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=99395 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
