Spring on eee PC?
Hi all,
Just wondering if the ultra portable eeePC by Asus would run spring... do you think it's possible?
there are already many games supported, look here:

Re: Spring on eee PC?
Don't see why not ... a friend of mine runs the EEE with Ubuntu (custom Kernel) and Springs does OK on it ... not too well though, but he got it playable. I don't see any reason why it shouldn't compile & run on the Xandros distro. Just try it and tell us.

A special GUI configuration for 800*480 would have to be made I think.

Ok, so my house was broken into last week, and they took 3 of my laptops, including one EEE, but one EEE survived.
One secondhand 50 pound monitor later, and I have access to internet and stuff again
Next question: does anyone happen to have Spring binaries for eeepc? I had a vague go at checking out the svn but ran out of disk space

there is no official binary packages for xandros, although, you could use the "universal" statically linked binaryhughperkins wrote:Ok, so my house was broken into last week, and they took 3 of my laptops, including one EEE, but one EEE survived.

it might need a bit hacking with symlinks in the case your lib versions are different, but should be less burden than building from the sauce
EDIT: i skimmed over quicky on the wiki and i found this entry
so I guess that you'd need to change distro in it to get HW acceleration supportGlest Only about 2fps on Xandros with software rendering but works OK on eeeXubuntu with DRI (The DRI driver on Xandros does not have the GL_ARB extension so will not work)

Yeah I was thinking that. Unfortunately, "horse" and "bolted" spring to mind.AF wrote:me hopes you booby trapped your laptops to phone home ;D
Do you have any thing to do this?
