Do you plan on supporting this little guy: in AppGameKit? I know MeeGo is basically Linux, but it is ARM one so probably meego executables wouldn't run on x86 without tricks like qemu. So, will you support in future desktop versions of Linux (Ubuntu, OpenSuse, Fedora, etc.)?

I know it is a priority in the agk google code. Since linux does use c++ and java I see why not just porting it over?

hello there!

I think we have discussed this before and iam all for it.

we talked about raspberry pi support that uses linux.

But first let them get the other formats stable

Android 2.3 , ZTE Skate , 480x800 , 800 mhz , Samsung Galaxy Y , 240x320 , 832 mhz , Sony ericson arc 480x854 , 1 ghz
Android 4.0 , Dmtech 3g 9738B , 1024x768 , 9.7 inches , 1.2 ghz

Yeah, stability is top priority. Linux support can wait, I hope it won't be long though.

Also why aren't my posts in DBPro discussion & DB newcomers still accepted?

Thing is TGC never said they will do a Linux version, so right now it's just wishful thinking

As I said, Meego is essentially Linux (even more than Android, since it's full GNU/Linux), so similar compilation process may be applied, it just need to be compiled for x86 instead of ARM.
