new arm computer
This computer looks like a ripoff of an
idea from the raspberry pi people

Barry is working towards ARM with woof2 . . .
. . . had a go with woof2 myself . . .
http://puppylinux.info/topic.php?id=94
Next year Puppy will be 64 bit, ARM power will be available
and Saluki is solikely
It must be Christmas

I recently compiled qemu 1.0 and have the ARM version stashed away. If somebody wants to send me a reminder next week, I can post a pet when I return home.
Check out my [url=https://github.com/technosaurus]github repositories[/url]. I may eventually get around to updating my [url=http://bashismal.blogspot.com]blogspot[/url].
Guys, be patient with the old fool Nooby now.
You know I am almost a Dummie when it comes
to getting code or set ups or how things work.
But the following seems totally wrong to me.
Maybe that user understand teh words differently
than what I do.

Debian do have code for ARM.
Puppy would need to be absolutely ARM-ified and that is not as easy
as it may sound to some of us.
Okay the Russian Puppy folks has come a long way but they still have
no working Windows Manager like JWM or any like that working?
What one would need is a Puppy that works like Debian do?
Debian are Multi User while Puppy are Single user and Puppy have
Aufs or what the name is. Layers that Debian don't have.
Knoppix also have AUfs or what term there is so puppy and knoppix
are unusual in that way?
Is it something that I miss? One OS can not start another
unless you have virtual boot for the second one but with so
little RAM that is not possible.
could someone explain what is going on. I doubt these two get
what is needed?
I know nothing about what the Russian team has accomplished
so I may totally have misunderstood. Maybe they have worked out
something very useful? That would be a good thing.
But that is not what the text here refers to. Another question.
Does the Russian Puppy then only have russian keyboard and display?
Or is it bilingual?

JamesHSo can you put Puppy (or similar) on the SD and direct boot from it?
How are Debian supposed to help Puppy to boot?I believe that should be possible – this just a replacement of the debian (or whatever) compressed file with the puppy one on the root of the SD card.

I use Google Search on Puppy Forum
not an ideal solution though

JamesH is just saying that to get puppy to work you simply delete the debian OS on the SD card and then copy to the SD card the Puppy OS.
ofcause we will need to have a working Puppy compiled for the ARM setup to get it to work.
A great read. However, I also clicked the link near the bottom about the "$35 Tablet in India" and discovered this little gem in the middle:
---While originally presented as a Linux device, the prototype on the show runs on Android (and handles the operating system "fairly smoothly," the surprised Gurus say).==
I don't think people will ever learn that Android IS Linux!

arcanis, you haven't read enough. android uses a *forked* version of the linux kernel, so it is not linux any more. At first, they co-operated with the kernel devs and tried to have their code included in the main-line kernel. At that time, you could check out the official kernel sources and produce an android kernel.
But, they could/would not meet the requirements of the kernel devs, so they simply forked the kernel and now make changes without any regard to the main kernel developments. You cannot take the android sources and create a linux kernel.

this is what annoys me, no OpenGL for Rasp...
also the cost of the hdmi screen etc, you can get opengl capable android tablets for $80 now from ebay and ofc the screen is already there.
im not trying to be a wise guy here, the Rasp will bring alot of awareness from alot of people to the ARM platform, small computers and linux, thus encouraging efficient smart software that relies on good code, not hardware specs.... this is a very good thing.
its a dream of mine to like have a mini server farm, but i dont know really what way ill go, tablet or rasp. Android tablets have ethernet already there, this is important, as a server farm with only wifi would suck. Once setup im looking to learn how to run a cluster.
No OpenGL is a pain, but i never really expected the Rasp to be replacing home systems very much, but..... the way i see it is:
SERVER FTW!!!
cheapish quiet power efficient servers and you can fit 10 of them on top of your bookshelf, its freaking awesome. I already have setup cheapo tablets with debian and run game servers and fileservers etc and stream the webcam over the network, with wifi these things are portable security cameras aswell.
i havent used a Rasp yet, maybe it will impress me, maybe it wont. Whatever the case i think we will have a sweet year ahead of us messing with these things

Haha we will end up with one puppy for old computers.
One for RaspberryPi and one that is a forked Android that
can make use of Android apps. Would google allow that?
Most likely not?
What about that WebOS that they told us they would allow to be
open for devs to use? Would that one work on same hardware
as Android do? That would be something interesting then maybe
