Yes, I am aware of those projects, however, they seem to be more focused on just the YeeLoong than the other Loongson products (Lemote FuLoong and LynLoong in particular, but also the Gdium). I would like to have a "universal" Loongson-port. > >>At Debian.org I can't see Loongson listed on the mips(el)-pages as a >>supported platform. >> >>I know that Lemote have their own hacked version of Debian Lenny >>available on dev.lemote.com, but it is not really a "thorough" process >>(manually copying libs, outdated kernel without APM) >> >>I would like to offer to help out in any way I can if anyone is >>interested in having a Loongson-port. > > I have a Notebook Lemote Yeeloong 8101_B and /proc/cpuinfo has (among > other things): I have the exact same netbook, but I also have the Lemote FuLoong mini-PC in which I currently are running Debian - but not from a installer. I had to download and extract a complete system to a partition and boot a custom kernel. The system was using an older kernel and were configured in chinese so it took some time to get "everything right". > I plan to use it to build/test Debian packages.

I would also like to help with whatever I can help with, however, I haven't done any development-related stuff with Debian before (only i18n/l10n) so I don't really know how and where to start. Would love some guidance here. -- Cato Auestad bleakgadfly www.fsf.org / www.fsfe.org / www.gnu.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
