i was not talking about any version #, but rather "branch" (if i understand the term correctly). aubuti;508368 Wrote: > Second, as you yourself have read, andyg says that people running beta > should be testing 7.5-embedded, not the un-embedded version. u mean what he said today? this is all part of the problem. when i go here: http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/Nightly_Builds i don't see anything about embedded anything, branches, etc... or any info or definitions or explanations EXCEPT about what is listed there. that stuff on that page is what i am comfortable using. i do not understand the ramifications of embedded vs "normal" or fat or whatever one wants to call it, and so i stick with what i know. i'm not going to just start using embedded without context. aubuti;508368 Wrote: > Based on andyg's statement I don't see the point of running un-embedded > 7.5 unless you're one of the people for whom 7.5-embedded isn't working. perhaps, but i need context. i have it for what i know, as well as exp with what i know. aubuti;508368 Wrote: > Also, in other posts you equate the embedded branch with TinySC and SB > Touch. no, i asked IF that was true, it was a question, i was looking for that context. aubuti;508368 Wrote: > This association is false. embedded not a codeword for TinySC, and it is > equally mistaken to call the un-embedded "full". The distinction is > mostly an issue of the backend database, not the device that runs SBS. ergo my questions and search, or rather, NEED for context. so perhaps you can lay it out for me fully? what should we call the link above? the mysql branch? does that mean that "embedded" is only different, as a branch, in being sqlite and having fixes applied first? why don't they make the embedded branch available via the wiki link above? aubuti;508368 Wrote: > I'm curious which examples you've seen of "embedded is getting all the > fixes first".
