so it seems likely that sometime in the next month the planet computers
gemini will ship, dual booting android and debian stretch and, apparently,
allowing linux apps to run under android (though we do not yet know
whether the inverse is true, which would be useful for, say, telephone
stuff).
and amid my excitement i realize that there's a huge amount i don't know
re. running linux applications on ARM machines. i've been spoiled by the
ability on x86 machines to be able to add a repository to sources.lst and
everything just works. my guess is that i'll not be able simply to add the
trinity debian repository on this gadget and simply do an apt-get to make
it all work.
so, then, for those experienced in different architectures: is it likely i
could simply recompile TDE on the machine itself and therefore get working
binaries (presuming the availability of a compiler for the gadget), or is
there more -- much, much more, probably -- that i'll need to do? the whole
purpose of the exercise is to have TDE running usefully on a pocket-sized
device, and i realize now that i don't even know if binaries would have to
be specific to a particular device or just what.
