It's certainly fine for development in the sense that you can run compilers, package builders, etc. The problem is as the interface has become rather 3D-intensive there is not currently a good "emulator" that you can run such apps in, so for runtime testing you pretty much need the target device. Earlier in the life of Moblin, the default "desktop", if you want to use that term for it, was not this way, and it was much less problematic that kvm, vmware, etc. aren't able to do accelerated 3d graphics on behalf of the moblin guest (and perhaps the website notes were not appropriately updated). _______________________________________________ Moblin dev Mailing List [email protected] To manage or unsubscribe from this mailing list visit: http://lists.moblin.org/listinfo/dev or your user account on http://moblin.org once logged in.
