do you think aircrack-ng is gonna run on this version of linux?

[stevechippy]

It's going to work if someone ports it, yes. As for speed, it's maybe 1/10th the speed of a normal laptop.

[stevechippy]

please bear in mind that its not possible to install and run anything on this. There is limited ram, limited storage and not everything is available in the distribution. its not ubuntu.

hi man , can install firefox?

[stevechippy]

There's not a lot of memory so this might be a problem but in theory, it's installable.

Great video! I was looking at this for my younger siblings, as a basic little school computer. Unfortunately, the OS looks subpar for school use. Would you recommend maybe a Dell Mini instead for school?

[stevechippy]

Definately look at a netbook for school use. This isn't really in the classic 'computer' category. More web-book.

@stevechippy how about fennec?

battery life?

R7 seems working but in fact many PDFs can not be opened and no button to turn page-by-page (but only scroll).

ImageViewer is very slow unless your files are very small in size. Only use buttons for next image.

No Flash support in browser. Can't install Firefox or Chrome or Opera browser.

Mount and unmount of SD card often corrupt files or mount as read only.

It seems like a good product, but in fact it only works well with certain files in certain ways. Don't expect any smooth experience.

Impressive but I can see the processor straining under to the weight of the bloatware. On my old 166 MHz laptop it was the same. Native X apps like xterm, xman and xv ran quite quickly but anything using GTK+ and its entourage of associated libraries was slow as molasses.

Flash does not work with any ARM device at the moment any that claim to are converting them to H264 on the go , apparently Adobe are working on an arm flash version but the chances are the Smartq wont have the power to support it

[greenmile441]

does anybody have issues getting on Facebook with this device? Can you download adobe flash player on this?

[chrisXBOX360]

not bad need work but not bad

[wreybies]

Is this device compatible with Internet Explorer or Netscape as web browsers? I have to replace my aging, doddering PC because there is a website I use for work which stubbornly refuses to allow me to enter via anything other than IE or Netscape. I have a Mac, that should explain my problem with IE or Netscape.

There's no way you can get Mac OS to run on this device. EeePC OS - well, if you mean the modified Ubuntu, that's just a different UI, so yes, this should be possible.
