From myself I will add, MeeGo is characterized by low resource consumption and power consumption, thereby increasing the speed and autonomy of the netbook from the battery.

Notes

Owners of laptops Lenovo S10-3c:

since this system is based on the Linux kernel, there are problems with keyboard support (the internal keyboard does not work, only the external one), it is solved with the boot parameter "noapic acpi = off", by cutting off ACPI you lose the battery charge indication, Power management. If someone finds a solution, without disabling ACPI I will be grateful.

Owners of other laptops:

You should have no problems with the work of MeeGo! If something does not work write.

Guys, if you have a device on Maemo or MeeGo, create a topic on it in discussions!

Judging by the fact that it is written in the script itself, it is just necessary to start it, but I would recommend to save all the information from the flash drive to a safe place.

[softwider]

Hello, dear forum users! ;)
It does not go to run the installation of MeeGo on Dell mini 10 ...
When you switch to a graphical installation - just a black screen.
So it "weighs" endlessly.

Please help me figure it out! : sveta:

[kostyani4]

I tried today to put the STE ... ... I did not like it very much, very raw. Ntfs even after installation does not see. I'm not talking about the modem at all, well, and so on. I have an Asus eee pc 1001px. Everything worked start in the region of 1 minute.

[DeuS2]

I think you can forget about installing migo on a netbook. Firstly, it is not necessary at all, that is, there are a bunch of more mature distributions and DE, and secondly, its netbook interface was abandoned (and correctly, they do not fit into any time frame). The subject is of interest only on the phones.

[Kolyman]

Acer Aspier One D 260 - normal flight.
The only thing that the wired Internet is not from Domolink does not want to work. only wi-fi

[Mistake85]

Tell me please, will it go on a touch tablet?

[Dimsml]

Mistake85

Go then it can go, but not the fact that your touch panel will work in it.

[Mistake85]

Dimsml,
thanks) we will try

[Mistake85]

Damn, everything works super, I will put it as an additional axis, the current Wi-Fi does not work (
And there is no virtual keyboard, how to put it?

[mgeee]

On the pack did not go. Apparently due to the fact that there the mother is not from Intel, but from Nvidia ...
But on the Toshiba m700 started up, only without the support of the touchscreen.

[SEASTAR]

There is a tablet winpad p100. I tried to install MeeGo tablet version. During the installation, the touchscreen worked, and when the axis was loaded, the screen stopped responding. Can anyone come across? What do you advise?

Lenovo netbook s3-10. Put Meego with the second system after the seven (call grub - system selection list - Ctrl + s, if someone did not know). Weifai screwed, switch layouts screwed, ntfs screwed, put codecs. Open office is worth ... And the thought came to me, but what for? I did not notice any increase in battery life, nor any increase in productivity. As braked on heavy mkv, and brakes. And if you like linux, then why install Megoo if you can install Ubuntu?

And he (the processor) cannot reproduce them physically. OS has nothing to do with it. Find out if percent can accelerates video decoding in some formats. You can try the player / codec with optimization

Why install Megoo if you can install Ubuntu?

I came to this conclusion and not putting a migo. On my side, it is generally useless (although it is weak because CULV)

[Older_Rick]

I thought, weighed, decided to leave the second system. There is a network, there is a bluetooth, movies and music are spinning, a full-fledged office ... For anyone, this horror is better than Quikstart.

Older_Rick @ 07/03/2011, 14:41

And if you like linux, then why install Megoo if you can install Ubuntu?

Super! Actual question. "because _ what a scream!"
I will say from experience that although I have both win7 and meego and ubuntu at the same time, I use the least ubuntu (the same as wines, side view + the cooler does not turn off), but I like the interface, integration with social networks ...

More interesting ubunt ??? Maybe try to deliver?

[mikomdante]

Can you please tell me if I can buy a Samsung N100 (MA01) netbook with meego on board, then, if you wish, put a seven there. I want to try migo, but you never know, you will need a seven.
And the second question - how to migrate with wi-fi?

[mikomdante]

another question - nowhere can I find how to change the keyboard layout in the world?

[DeuS2]

Mikomdante @ 08/08/2011, 10:54

can i

You can. But do not be fooled. These "ultra light" and "ultra cheap" netbooks for migo actually just have a small (and light) battery and the cheapest iron. For 9-10 thousand rubles, you can already buy a netbook with a dual-core atom, a large disk, a larger battery, two gigs of RAM, and a Windows. Subject in theory costs 200 bucks, but in practice it costs 7999 rubles.

Mikomdante @ 08/08/2011, 19:39

change keyboard layout

Well setxkbman should be there.

What is heard about version 1.3? Saw only plans for embedded systems. the netbook direction had stalled before the release of 1.2. Version for mobiles suffered the same fate?
