Re: [ANN] Gentoo chroot on N8x0
As a short-term measure, I plan to merge my patches into openwrt patchset (which I use as a base). What'll happen after that - don't know yet, time will show.

Re: [ANN] Gentoo chroot on N8x0
So, https://github.com/slonopotamus/n8x0-overlay/wiki/modern-kernel contains current HW status. Most important missing bit is TSC2301 that provides sound/touchscreen/keypad for N800. Also, I talked...

Re: [ANN] Gentoo chroot on N8x0
Time flies and current Gentoo userspace is no longer compatible with ancient diablo kernel. So, I'm in the process of switching to modern kernel...

Re: [ANN] Gentoo chroot on N8x0
Those stages are OABI and won't work correctly because of bug in diablo kernel: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=462677
And they don't use VFP (float-point unit) so will be very...

Wow. Didn't know about that. Looks interesting, even though they target pci/usb devices.

Re: Maemo Rewritten
Don't see any benefits from doing so.
It's all userspace.
I doubt we'll ever see open wifi/bt firmware. audio dsp stuff is problematic. Except for that, things are surely doable.

Re: Maemo Rewritten
These two are very unlikely, they require deep understanding of hw internals.
What's this and why we need it?
No way, unless someone gives me N810 (N800 here).
Well, if we have, this...

Actually I don't have any benchmarks on Maemo. Kernel build with stock maemo configg takes ~100 minutes in Gentoo chroot.
