Im hoping that people here are able to help me since this question is a real noob question. Im a big fan of Linux with most of my experience to date on Ubuntu and Suse systems. Im looking to purchase the openmoko and would really love to have Debian on it, due to being able to access a large number of Debian apps. From the table on (http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Distributions#Debian) it indicates that Debian has been able to successfully integrate the important features of a smart phone. However on the table it indicates ((1) works, but need additional software to be installed) for the vast majority of features. I have fairly good computer knowledge and am relatively comfortable with the command line interface but im not a computer science major and cannot program to save my life. So I thought I would ask the question number to make it easier for reply.
1.) Is the Debian release able to provide a phone that has the basic functions (SMS, telephony, email) without needing to spend a week getting it to work. 2.) Will there be a Debian release for the Openmoko that includes all the basic functions. If so what sort of time frame is anticipated for this. Thankyou for any advice you can give Peter
