This is (like the t3-port of linux)
still very much work in progress.
-no wifi
-no sound
-no battery-status
-no suspend/resume
-problem+workarounds with sd-cards (no mmc)
It’s just the _first_ we-can-get-it-going
technical preview.
Performance is promising, but not as
“snappy” as palmos. But it will get better
(as it will on the T3), because nothing is optimized for speed yet.
I hope wifi will be posible, but thats not too soon, months away maybe.

But I always get this:
… attempting to mount /dev/mmcblk0p1: mounted on /media /mmc1. sourcing linux.boot.cfg: not found. post_module script: not found. no swap specified. mounting rootfs: not a file or a block device. /media/hdd/palmtc_gpe_familiar-v0.8.4_rootfs.ext2 ls: /media/mmc1/gpe*:No such file or direcotry failed! could not mount root fs: init failed! please, reset, check your configuration and retry.
Well? How is it? I mean performance wise and driver wise? and any clue when the wifi function will be implemented?
=D
I haven’t tested it. The pictures are from the HacknDev wiki.
Oh sorry, couldnt contain the excitement
and Shouldnt ALP come out some time very soon? Anyhoo, these portable linux news are very interesting to me
