@ozzelot Hmm. No, that should not be needed. I tried Chromium under Gnome, got "not responding, force quit?". Chromium under MATE is not great, but usable. So far it looks like problem is Gnome (on Wayland?).

@zak Yes, please, phones in 100gram range would be nice. And I guess esp32 + display + modem is not exactly rocket science, so it will happen one day...

@guardeddon @danct12 Look for Motorola Droid 4 or Nokia N900. Both should be cheap and easily available. Leste project was/is even giving some away...

@ljs This is Thinkpad Tablet 10. RAM is not expandable. I'm still using Thinkpad X60 with 3GB RAM, and is usable for basic browsing...

2GB RAM should be enough for everybody

Is it expected that x86-64 machine with 2GB RAM is not usable even for very basic browsing? I expected to be able to have two tabs with idnes.cz open. Currently it is running Debian 12, 64-bit, Gnome, Firefox, swap on MMC. What should I try first? Ad blocker? 32-bit distro? Mate? Chromium? Swap to zram? Something else I forgot?

@guardeddon @danct12 I believe N800 resurrection will be significant work. N900 should be easier and more widely available...

@monsieuricon I have updated tablet to Fedora-41, too (uneventfull, good), but then I decided I really like debian more, so I'm moving to Debian 12. So far I have text-nly system working :-).

If you want driver for 0x5f3, 0x00d2 "PI Engineering RailDriver Modern Desktop", it is in my "tui" repository. (USB Train controller) Now I just need to figure out how to stop system from detecting it as a mouse, and therefore breaking my desktop in subtle way.

Playing with Thinkpad Tab 10. It has 10", 1920x1080 screen. Wow! Grub and Debian text mode use VGA font on that. Not so wow...

@dos @Rhababerbarbar @danct12 Well, Maemo was Debian-based, but it was not quite usual. It contained lot of non-free stuff, for example. Still... more usual than Android, agreed.

@fell Still not open source, right? Check out mig-15 in flightgear when you get a chance.

@danct12 ...and thanks to Maemo Leste project, you can still get updated software for it. And unlike original Maemo, this is actually opensource ;-).

@w8l You may want to take a look at Bangle.js2 . Esp32 is not really a good base for smartwatch due to the power consumption. (And yes, I'd like to see good/open smartwatch software, and so far Espruino is best I found. It should be possible to get it to run on Esp, too :-) ).
