A MeeGo PC, specifically designed to be integrated into automobiles, was recently released by GENIVI Alliance. The demo in the video shows an early release of the IVI UX likely, running on an Atom-based platform. The IVI UX faces similar challenges to providing a good "kitchen" machine experience, for example on the O2 Joggler; but without the mobility features.
alan bruce continues his series of blog posts on getting MeeGo running on the N900 in a chroot environment with part 3, which covers Alan's new, streamlined MeeGo image and improved scripts. In my first post in this series, I walked you through making a Meego chroot image from the raw images provided by Meego. In the second post, I gave you some rough scripts for starting the Meego UI in a Maemo chroot with the assistance of Easy Debian. In this post I'll present my new MeeGo image with the newest Meego UI and all the pieces installed to run without Easy Debian. I also present new scripts that streamline and improve the process. The chroot approach offers a lower-impact way to test and program on MeeGo, as it doesn't require rebooting out of your primary environment.
