It’s working great with SqueezePlay and MythTV-frontend!

If you want to use MythTV, I can recommend EasyStroke to control it by gestures.

As said in http://www.flattermann.net/2010/04/android-on-o2-joggler/ I’ve tried to install Android on the Joggler/OpenPeak.

In the last post, I said that Sound and Wifi did not work yet.

Well, that’s solved by now.
You can use Sound and Wifi on the Joggler now!

BTW: The sound quality is pretty good!

The Prebuilt Image will be updated soon:

What’s your first thought?

Right: Why didn’t they install Android on it?

I was able to get one of these gadgets from O2/UK for a discount price of 49GBP, so couldn’t resist.

In the meantime, I was able to install Android on the Joggler!

See the JogglerWiki for instructions:

(BTW: It also contains info about Ubuntu and Meego on the Joggler!)

Not everything works yet, but it is a start.

• It boots (albeit GUI is still slow)
• Ethernet works
• Touchscreen works
• /sdcard & /data works
• And the most important thing: SqueezeCommander works!

Wifi & Sound are still missing, though.

[Update 2010-04-24: Wifi & Sound are now working!]

Have fun!

There’s a great project to port Android to x86!

They offer a LiveCD that you can try without changing anything on your PC.

Furthermore, you can even install it on your PC/Netbook!
It should already run on e.g. many Netbooks like the Asus EeePC.

I’ve installed it in a VirtualBox under Linux and it runs pretty well.

Some hints:

• The Windows key acts as HOME key
• The Context key (on the right of the right Windows key) acts as MENU key
• ESC acts as BACK key

To keep the settings in a VirtualBox permanently, you need to create two partitions:

• A data partition (500MB should be sufficient)
• A SD card partition (as large as you need)

You need to add the partition identifiers to the boot kernel line, see also:

Have fun!

It’s in beta stage at the moment and I’m searching for some testers.

Have a lot of fun,

In this case, you should take a look at the SheevaPlug embedded PC.

It’s not exactly very pretty, but it’s cheap (~100$) and it serves it purpose. It uses a 1.2GHz ARM CPU, 512MB RAM and uses as little as 2.3W (idle) to 7W (100% CPU usage).

You can attach an external USB drive to store your music on and install the SqueezeBoxServer to serve the music to your SqueezeBoxes.

Thomas Rühl created some images for the SheevaPlug that include the SqueezeBoxServer. His project is called SqueezePlug. It makes it very easy to get the SBS on SheevaPlug running.

Of course, it’s perfectly controllable with your Android mobile using SqueezeCommander.
