Guest Blueangel180 Posted December 12, 2011 Report Posted December 12, 2011 With WebOS now open source,and developers trying to get it on their android devices.Is it possible for the blade/arm6 devices to get it? Webos IS quite a fluid OS.even though it may be lacking in the apps department
Guest Picazsoo Posted December 12, 2011 Report Posted December 12, 2011 It's not open-source yet. The older Pres were armv6 so there might be a way to port it.
Guest Lister Of Smeg Posted December 12, 2011 Report Posted December 12, 2011 Hi BlueAngel180 + Devs, Yeah I too would welcome this OS to the Blade if at all its possible?? I am no programmer, and so I have no idea how easy / hard it will be?? Seeing as how WebOS (like Android and iOS) are based on the Linux OS / Kernel it should at least be more likely that trying to emulate Windows. Really hope there could be a WebOS port ROM... would be sweet. :) Lister With WebOS now open source,and developers trying to get it on their android devices.Is it possible for the blade/arm6 devices to get it?

Guest iKrautDroid Posted December 12, 2011 Report Posted December 12, 2011 [joking] Can we port Windows Mobile?
Guest dirlan2001 Posted December 12, 2011 Report Posted December 12, 2011 [joking] Can we port Windows Mobile? [serious] As the Blade has exact the same hardware inside as the old HP 614c, guess it's just finding the keyboard/synaptics/etc... drivers for WM6 to run on the Blade LOL :D
Guest Blueangel180 Posted December 12, 2011 Report Posted December 12, 2011 I just wanted to know if it was possible,the webOS is linux based hopefully the source code will be released soon PS, can anyone please tell me what THIS is?
Guest davidnintendo Posted December 12, 2011 Report Posted December 12, 2011 I just wanted to know if it was possible,the webOS is linux based hopefully the source code will be released soon PS, can anyone please tell me what THIS is? The webpage says it quite clear. It's the source code for several open-source projects used on WebOS, not the OS source itself. Most closed OS use some opensource packages. For instante, Windows includes OpenGL and OS X uses webkit on Safari, OpenGL, OpenAL... And, since that packages are originally open-source, they have to release the source for that packages including what they have modified because it's illegal not to do so.
