=MeeGo on nonSSSE3 x86 Hardware=

Update (vljn): Meego and its netbook ux actually works on non SSE/SSSE3 supporting Pentium 4. The issue is that most non ssse3 chipset comes either with a too old intel gfx, or with an intel/amd graphic chipset. Both are not supported out of the box.

This page was inspired by a discussion on #meego ([http://mg.pov.lt/meego-irclog/%23meego.2010-08-11.log.html#t2010-08-11T21:17:58 log@21:17]) regarding MeeGo support of nonSSSE3 based hardware.

lbt added to the discussions with a timely blog post he had been working on http://mer-l-in.blogspot.com/2010/08/are-intel-subverting-meegocom.html.

MeeGo Conference 2010/Unconference/ARM

2010-11-13T13:20:51Z

Vjaquez: add myself

== When ==

This will happen as a BoF at http://conference2010.meego.com/session/bof-meego-arm

== Intents & Purposes ==

I plan to get together with like minded individuals at the unconference part of the MeeGo conference 2010 and talk about [[ARM|MeeGo on ARM]]. The idea is to sit down and discuss current state of the port of the MeeGo platform to the ARM architecture, problems, lessons learnt and future directions of MeeGo ARM and everything surrounding it (tool support, ecosystem, quality, documentation, etc.)

Chipset and SoC vendors, hobbyists, end-user product developers, OEM, ODMs, ISVs, porting engineers, toolchain engineers - everyone with an interest is more than welcome. - indicate your interest below!
