Hi all,
I got myself the latest Raspberry Pi 4 for Christmas. It's a pretty powerful machine advertised as a fully-fledged desktop PC and with 4 1.5GHz cores in the CPU and 4GB of RAM it delivers on that promise. The primary operating system on the Pi is Raspbian, a distribution directly based on Debian, running an LXDE desktop environment. I was wondering how much effort would it take to bring TDE to the Pi? I'm guessing that architecture would be the primary obstacle (Pi is based on ARM), but would it pose much of a challenge? Raspberry Pi certainly seems like a potent market for TDE. Maybe it is worth the effort of having an ARM release for Raspbian? Maybe this is a good opportunity to bring in new users? I wonder what is the devs' take on this?

Ha! Thanks! I wasn't aware there are ARM builds already - I specifically checked the TDE web page before posting and didn't notice anything on the topic. I'll try it out tomorrow, see whether things Just Work in the latest Debian.

It works perfectly well.
Not really TDE related but, when you install, can you tell me if you can watch youtube video on it. I tried but it has an awful lag and at some point stops. I tried not only yourube stream ... but any video over HTML5 :(
Thanks
