Nokia Tablet / Run Opie Or Gpe On The Nokia 770

« on: May 13, 2006, 03:16:00 pm »

Opie is not yet ready for the 770, but there is a gpe image somewhere...

Do you mean the Ångström based GPE-image?

Or the regular OpenEmbedded based GPE-image?

I have not found any experiences or images of both, so I don't know if (and how well) they work.


Just to understand things right:
Opie or GPE are something like GNOME or KDE right?
Ie consisting of a separate window manager, theme engine and a set of applications?

How does the (x-)window-server fit in?

And the stock Nokia 770 runs:
- Which window-server
- Matchbox window-manager (http://projects.o-hand.com/matchbox/)
- Sapwood: GTK+ theme engine (how does this relate to the window-manager?

Nokia Tablet / Run Opie Or Gpe On The Nokia 770

First of all I have to say that I am quiet new to all this, so I could be asking stupid questions.
Hope you all are willing to forgive me

My main question is quiet simple actually:
Would it be possible (or is it already possible) to run a full OPIE or GPE "install" on the Nokia 770?
If it isn't (yet) possible, what is the reason for it and will it ever be possible?
