Hello All,

 

I was toying with building a custom portable player.

I have a hardware setup that is based on an Intel Atom processor, a LCD
screen with a usb touchscreen overlay...

 

Initially i installed windows XP, creating my application using windows
media playe + .NET Winforms (i had tried windows presentation, but the
vectors were killing the processor)... It looked okay, but it was laggy., i
have decided to go the Linux route....

 

a few important details.

I have never played with linux :)

i have had a lot of experience with flash (back in 98-03)

 

What i want to do......

I want to use MONO to create a cross platform "Engine".. The idea is that i
will have this engine., and my flash interface will be able to call specific
functions in the engine and display data., the reason why i want to seperate
the engine and the UI is so that i can deploy this on wither a linux player,
or a winxp player., and design different UI's ., and possibly allowing users
to create their own ui's based on the engine sdk...

 

I am currently downloading ubuntu... full desktop release... while the 600mb
has been downloading i started reading about ubuntu MID... and eventually
landed up here....

 

I noticed that in moblin you can either have a flash based ui., or a clutter
ui?

 

Can someone please give me some pointer and push me in the right direction?

 

also... instead of deploying my stuff directly on the device... can i use
microsoft virtual machine to create a virtual environment and install
moblin?

 

any pointers on how i should use the mobile image creator to create the
platform for flash? + mono?

 

**

I had posted the above on the website/blog. it was suggested that I post
this here..  So the above is my original post. since then, I have installed
ubuntu. and then found out that moblin will/has moved to fedora? So now im
trying to get fedora up and running.. 

I was having an issue running sudo image-creator yesterday. I will try again
today (new virtualbox) and will see what happens..
