I should have CentOS and Ubuntu available. One motivation for this is that I can't get the Neo qemu to build on either of my (mostly) stable Gentoo boxes, one x86 and one amd64. I suppose making a qemu-neo ebuild is an alternative. The build of the neo binaries seems to work fine, but without the qemu I can't test it. > In previous discussion with some members of the OpenMoko core team about > this issue, there was a clear direction from them that OpenMoko would > not be officially releasing or supporting a VMware image because you > needed proprietary software to run it.

Especially as I have both Xen and qemu, but not VMware :-) > -- Rod (who run's VMware, but also agrees with the core team :-)) _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
