But afaik no efforts have been put into making a Fedora ARM Tablet edition if that is what you wonder. But Fedora in general do contain all the stuff you need for a nice tablet experience. The hardest part in getting a new device running is getting a working kernel + bootloader access. After that getting the graphics drivers running proper (kernel + xorg, but I suppose most if not all drives the graphics as a framebuffer device which should enable the Xorg fbdev driver to be used. Many of the Android based tablets available on the market have been pretty closed down, with no hardware documentation or published kernel sources. Some even using digital signatures making the bootloader reject "unauthorized" code. I do not think any of them are supported by the standard kernel.org kernel source, all requiring extra kernel patches. Via have however started to publish their reference Android kernel sources which should work on most of the Via based tablets, and some of the locked down bootloaders mentioned above have been cracked open.. hopefully that kernel is good enough for running Fedora. Have not tried. Regards Henrik _______________________________________________ arm mailing list arm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/arm
