[DotGNU] RE: pnet on mobiles (arm processor, symbian os)

[Kirill Kononenko]

Hello

 

You can use pnet on any mobile/handheld that is linux based. I was working during my Summer of Code project to provide a delivery of a .NET environment for the handhelds.org community.

 

For now the most known Linux mobile phone/handheld is the Nokia 770.  I think pnet should work with it. I have seen building parameters in Open Embedded (the stuff I use to compile pnet for handhelds.org) for it.

You can read about my work I did here: http://handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/SummerOfCode2005

 

So to sum up, I can compile GPE DotNET (which is pnet based) for most linux based handhelds/mobile phones ( think that even for all that exists now).

 

To build GPE DotNET with Open Embedded stuff is very easy: use ‘bitbake gpe-dotnet’. For source code and binaries look at http://handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/SummerOfCode2005 too.

 

 

And saying that I read somewhere about 30% for mobile phones/handhelds based on linux in the next year…

 

Cheers,

 

Kirill
