[ekianjo]

Give him a day at least for the compilation

 

[Loonie]

Is it done yet? Is it done yet? Is it done yet? Is it done yet? Is it done yet? etc

 

[mcobit]

The funny thing is, that I think that only Zero3K is seriuos about his claim, that it should be finished already

 

[Zero3K]

I'm not in a hurry to have it.

Have fun with the DSP first .

Too late. Have kicked a build... With gstreamer integration 8)

This build, is it based on the cpu friendly Android version or on the common Desktop version.

don't know if android version is cut down and not nice too use any more (flash).

 

[hdonk]

It's the full 19 desktop version.

And the build has failed - toolchain issue.

 

[Askarus]

Will you also try out the Android version.

If it is also fully usable and makes browsing faster, it's maybe a nice solution as well.

A second PND called "FireFox light", so we can use both PNDs.

With 2 PNDs you won't ahve to medd arround to improve the light version (plugins, addons).

I think it's worth to try it (except it's tile consuming if the Android version is vompletely different to the desktop version to build).

The Android version will be totally different - Android uses different interfaces all over the place. Maybe you mean Fennec?

 

[urjaman]

tile consuming

Yeah, takes propably lots of tiles...
But, in the real world, android userspace != linux userspace, thus you propably cant build "Android Firefox" for linux that easily.

-- oh, part ninja'd --

But yeah if you can build "Fennec" or whatever is the Firefox Mobile on linux version nowadays it could be nice?

EDIT: Testing edits...

How could it be similar?? It's for Android by definition, do you expect it to run in Linux without modification ?

RIght. Time, not tile.

I'd better read what I write after typing.

Such stuff slips through spell checking .

That's the one I mean: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox&hl=en

No Fennec.

No Fennec.

Not. Going. To. Happen.

Android userspace is a completely different beast to Linux userspace. I don't fancy writing an Android emulator for Pandora. Do you?

 

[mcobit]

There actually is one...

Ok.

Clear answer is all I wanted to hear.

Right.

Let's start the request.

 

[Zero3K]

It's the full 19 desktop version.

And the build has failed - toolchain issue.

Any luck in getting it to build yet?

Is it done yet? Is it done yet? Is it done yet? Is it done yet? Is it done yet? etc

 

[hdonk]

The build failed again, with the same toolchain that build FF18 ok. I'm going to have to do some digging, I'm guessing the Mozilla Mob have tried to do something clever!

Or you could try compiling with code-blocks if you have 3 days in front of you

 

[hdonk]

That's with two different versions of codeblocks. The 'native' opkg version is too old to build FF.
