Hi, Actually, we are using FreeRDP under ARM devices (Marvell CPU) with Ubuntu 10.04 / Kernel 2.6.32 (Many thousands devices deployed)
No pb regarding 2.8… I think it's included in most distribution since at least 2 years…So, no issue on our side :-) By the way, if you need more feedback regarding ARM installations on FreeRDP, my company is specialized in such architecture (MIPS / ARM Thinclients) Thanks Romain DUCHENE Le 22 sept. 2012 à 19:29, Marc-André Moreau <marcandre.mor...@gmail.com> a écrit : > Hi, > > I would like to consult community members, especially those who need to > deal with old versions of Linux distributions, about the possibility of > requiring CMake 2.8 instead of 2.6. > > Simply put, it is possible to support CMake 2.6, but it requires some time > and effort to actually ensure backwards compatibility.
