dderby | Oksana: The A780 is actually one of the few mobile phones with support in mainline Linux. It might not be too difficult to get a recent kernel running on it. Try building Linux 5.1 and see what happens | 01:56 |

dderby | Here's the board file (no DT available): https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/arch/arm/mach-pxa/ezx.c | 01:56 |
dderby | Running Leste wouldn't be so straightforward due memory limitations and ARMv5 | 01:57 |
dderby | There's no ARMv5 support in Debian or Devuan | 01:58 |
dderby | You could try Raspbian | 01:58 |
brolin_empey | dderby: Does Raspbian support ARMv5? I thought that Raspbian was originally created for the original Raspberry Pi, which is ARMv6, not ARMv5. | 04:11 |
Oksana | dderby: I am too lazy to try building Linux kernel without GUI. I would wish to go slowly, since I have never compiled a whole OS before (I usually would ask auto-builder to compile a .deb app for me?), and read http://web.archive.org/web/20180826132044/http://people.openezx.org/laforge/ as well | 07:23 |
brolin_empey | Is A780 one of the Motorola “phones” with which the OpenMoko developers were involved before creating the OpenMoko GTA01 AKA Neo 1973 and GTA02 AKA Neo FreeRunner? | 07:44 |
brolin_empey | Apparently yes: https://www.vanille.de/blog/openmoko-10-years-after-mickeys-story/ | 08:00 |
brolin_empey | A ThinkPad X40 is in at least one of the photographs in this article. | 12:09 |
