So far we have not yet decided on a policy about wiki edits or bug filing. However, if you find something is wrong file a bug on gentoo.mindzoo.de (even if you think it's trivial). If you want to create new pages on the wiki you should join the #gentoo-openmoko IRC channel on Freenode and ask there! Is there a mailing-list for gentoo on freerunner discussions too? the one on lists.projects.openmoko.org seems to be died.

Freerunner freely runs Gentoo
Hello everybody, We the gen...@openmoko team are pleased to announce that we reached our first milestone for running Gentoo on the Freerunner. This mean you can cross- and natively compile a basic system including X, enlightenment, the FSO framework, WLAN tools and many more packages. Also some phone GUIs went already into the overlay located at http://overlays.gentoo.org/embedded To get started, please take a look at http://gentoo.mindzoo.de or visit us on the Freenode IRC channel #gentoo-openmoko. The goal of our project is to provide a way to cross- and natively compile all packages of the protage tree and feed back our fixes to the official tree. Furthermore, we are going to provide Freerunner specific ebuilds like for the FSO framework and different phone GUIs. What you can expect: - the Gentoo feeling ;-) - forget about version conflicts - frequent enlightenment updates - easy integration of new packages (start writing ebuilds yourself, it's trivial!) - multiple phone stacks - CHOICE So to all Gentoo lovers: Stop-by and get the experience the Gentoo feeling on your phone! Disclaimer: Even though we did a great step in the right direction, there are still enough pitfalls, packages that don't compile and difficulties in setting up the cross-compile environement. So at this point in time Gentoo is _NOT_ ready for the average user. If you try nevertheless, be prepared for a bumpy journey! You have been warned! Best regards and happy compiling! ;-) Sven, in the name of the gen...@openmoko team ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Re: Freerunner freely runs Gentoo
I have started to mess with GNU/Linux with Gentoo, then I acomodate myself to Debian and Ubuntu but Gentoo always had place in my heart... I will give it a try as soon as I can. Really awesome and brave work guys. 2009/3/3 Michael Shiloh mich...@openmoko.org: Sven Rebhan wrote: Hello everybody, We the gen...@openmoko team are pleased to announce that we reached our first milestone for running Gentoo on the Freerunner.
