so it seems likely that sometime in the next month the planet computers gemini will ship, dual booting android and debian stretch and, apparently, allowing linux apps to run under android (though we do not yet know whether the inverse is true, which would be useful for, say, telephone stuff). and amid my excitement i realize that there's a huge amount i don't know re. running linux applications on ARM machines. i've been spoiled by the ability on x86 machines to be able to add a repository to sources.lst and everything just works. my guess is that i'll not be able simply to add the trinity debian repository on this gadget and simply do an apt-get to make it all work. so, then, for those experienced in different architectures: is it likely i could simply recompile TDE on the machine itself and therefore get working binaries (presuming the availability of a compiler for the gadget), or is there more -- much, much more, probably -- that i'll need to do? the whole purpose of the exercise is to have TDE running usefully on a pocket-sized device, and i realize now that i don't even know if binaries would have to be specific to a particular device or just what. -- dep The shortest distance between you and playing great acoustic guitar: the great new instructional DVDs from Marjorie Thompson, available at www.MarjorieThompson.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: trinity-users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: trinity-users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Read list messages on the web archive: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to top-post: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting
