It does not affect us, we are not tied to kubuntu.

That is exactly what the orbiter lets you do, and if you search Qorbiter on youtube you can cool new ways to browse media in some of the videos.

yep they are finally in production, and yes it looks like the only thing that they could run it Qorbiter, if it were build for ARM. I hope to look into building an ARM MD, but we will see.

which rules out using it as a core, but not as an MD correct?

did you see that a new version of remastersys is in the works.

i know you are making a custom script but just thought it might be helpful to look at the new code.

thats correct because they don't support the older version of ARM, but if a full MD cant be built i know orbiter can be compiled for arm

this popped up on their home page, i dont know if golgoj4 would be interested

ATI and Intel graphics are a gray area for us, i will point you to this thread as someone is trying to remedy this.

i have had kubuntu CD's go bad on me before, after several installations so its worth a shot burning a new one on the slowest speed

if i acquire one of the first batch, im going to use it for my local ubuntu mirror, but i would be happy to open it up via ssh for people to poke around it.

I have been following the raspberry pi project lately (link below), and i will be buying a couple of them for other projects but i wondered how difficult would it be to use it as an MD. The problem with using it as an MD is the fact that its ARM based, and at that its ARMv6 based so no Ubuntu But, how difficult would it be getting a MeeGo or Debian MD dunning? A $35 MD is quite intriguing.

this is  the plan, as far as i know, as the SVN says so

i run my laptop in clam shell mode sometime and the only thing i would warn you about is heat because some computers pull in air from the keyboard and in clam shell mode it cant do this.

you should not have to setup shared folders, if the Guest Extensions are installed you should have USB 2.0 support so you can mount the drives in VirtualBox but then they cannot be mounted in the host OS also.

you might want to talk to hari, if you buy 2 door locks and send him 1 he might be able to add support for it
