Smeegol

Published by Andrew Wafaa
Based on openSUSE 11.3 32-bit x86

Smeegol is based on the netbook user interface that came from the MeeGo™* project. Smeegol offers the latest Banshee’s powerful music player, a newer Evolution Express as mail and agenda client and several additional social networks.

Whatever desktop environment he used, you need to click and hold the mouse button down then select whatever you want to do.

I don’t like it.

David VantieghemDavid Vantieghem,

Smeegol is very good on an acer aspire One.

Maybe a 1.2 compil?

Ihave so trouble, when i clone your appliance. so some obscure thing some thing is wrong with the
“package banshee-1-client-meego”
How can i do to remove the fault?
I need to clone to add the GMA500 aka Poulsbo driver in.

Thanck you.

JeToJednoJeToJedno,

Just loaded Smeegol on a new Samsung NC110, and, after adding ndiswrapper from the wireless repository and updating all the software to latest versions, it’s working very well for me.

It’s a pity Meego seems to have been diverted onto different tracks. This is just what I need and want. Simple & fast. Long running life.

SyvolcSyvolc,

Very good job this first version.

When a new version with MeeGo 1.2 ?

leonardoleonardo,

I know that Meego needs 3D acceleration enabled. Does this requirement exist for Smeegol?

SamisSamis,

I might add the Meego/Moblin to my appliance (Xinux) thinks about it……..

kjhankkjhank,

So, is there any chance of seeing a 11.4-based smeegol?

ryan27968ryan27968,

how much hard disk space does it take?

mbiggersmbiggers,

is there a Blog / wiki / news-page, describing ongoing work on Smeegol? Great work Andrew!

How to convert raw to iso image

zarlabszarlabs,

To my knowledge you should just change file extension from .raw to .iso

John BJohn B,

I found Tomaz’s tip necessary in order to have Smeegol automatically boot into the Meego UX. However, the wifi doesn’t work at all with an Intel 5100 card. Additionally, the power manager claims that I don’t have a battery installed. This is all while being run from a live USB on a netbook. The positives: I like how the dockbar hides, Meego should implement this feature by default.

Magnus BergdahlMagnus Bergdahl,

Can you make a new clone of it so all can enjoy it please?

John BJohn B,

Hi, I made a clone of Smeegol, which can be found here. If you have issues logging in/getting to the desktop this should hopefully fix it. But do note, no other changes were made. To be honest I’d wait to see if Fedora will release a Meego spin in a couple weeks, because this seems more like an alpha, alteast when tested from a Mini 9 w/ Intel 5100 wifi. http://susegallery.com/a/yHh8HE/unofficial-smeegol-login-fixed

WizePC (Orb)WizePC (Orb),

Don’t bother making suggestions here. The developer won’t answer, or read it. Smeegol is just a piece of s***

Mellon FosterMellon Foster,

@Orb Yes, I tried the clone it and edit it BUT I COULD NOT UNDERSTAND HOW HE MADE THIS!

kabelkabel,

A dumb question: I came to this page by searching in Google for Smeegol Screen-shots, so why this page is named blah-blah-galery, when there are not any screen-shots? What is Suse Gallery?

WizePC (Orb)WizePC (Orb),

1. Don’t bother asking that question. It won’t be answered. (By the creator anyway)

2. Suse Gallery. Well you know what it is. You posted this comment right?

Lenz GrimmerLenz Grimmer,

Did not work for me either, I get a blank screen as well (using the online test drive)

WizePC (Orb)WizePC (Orb),

Actually that is the desktop! Whatever desktop environment he used, you need to click and hold the mouse button down then select whatever you want to do.

I don’t like it.

Ruch GRuch G,

That desktop seems to be Minimal X!

Magnus BergdahlMagnus Bergdahl,

This build doesn’t work at all. After login the screen just turns purple blank.

WizePC (Orb)WizePC (Orb),

I don’t like it.

Magnus BergdahlMagnus Bergdahl,

I don’t get it….why make it so only tvm shows and not Meego??

WizePC (Orb)WizePC (Orb),

I don’t know. This whole thing seems stupid to me already.

WizePC (Orb)WizePC (Orb),

What is the point of this?

WizePC (Orb)WizePC (Orb),

Will you answer me? and all these other people who ask questions?

champ yenchamp yen,

Yes, I have same problem as Omro said. Is there any trick here?

OmroOmro,

i tried in VirtualBox and got a blank screen.
I then tried here in testdrive and get only twn, am i missing something? Is there a way to launch the right interface?

Tomasz SkrętTomasz Skręt,

Just edit /etc/syconfig/windowmanager and change meego to startmoblin
Should work.

OmroOmro,

Yes, kind of, the fonts are corrupted, the screen is empty but for the panel and then i’m back at xdm when i click on something.
A word of caution about the current state of the appliance might have been helpfull. :)

Tomasz SkrętTomasz Skręt,

Work. if you download and start on Your computer. On ‘test drive’ there are issuess as you write.

OmroOmro,

“Yes, kind of, the fonts are corrupted, the screen is empty but for the panel and then i’m back at xdm when i click on something.”
That was on my personal computer.
