Questions about building plasma active

[Maurice de la Ferte]

Jonathan Hi,
 
first I like to point out that the our basyskom tegra2 images are part
of a early hardware evaluation for Plasma Active development purpose.
Those images are outdated and unsupported.

The images and helper script are working on a Point of View tablet
(TAB-TEG-10-1-4GB-3G) with pre installed Android 2.3. In case they
fail, the reason could be a different partition layout on "Motorola Xoom"
(you should get a hint on std error output by usind the helper scripts),
a invalid Android boot image (in case of pre installed Android > 2.3).
Also please keep in mind the published image (2011-12-09) needs a kernel
with enabled swap support, you will find it inside following rpm (you have
to unpack the rpm by hand to get the new boot image):
 
http://repo.pub.meego.com//Project:/KDE:/Mer_Extras:/Adaptation:/Tegra2/Mer_Extras_armv7hl/armv7hl/boot-image-tegra-0.1-3.5.Project.KDE.Mer_Extras.Adaptation.Tegra2.armv7hl.rpm
 
In case you like to adapt the kernel for your own needs,
the following url could be a good starting point:
 
https://build.pub.meego.com/package/files?package=kernel-adaptation-tegra&project=Project%3AKDE%3AMer_Extras%3AAdaptation%3ATegra2
 
Thats all we have.
 
Cheers
