| - | == Roadmap ==
| + | |
| - | See the [[modRana_Roadmap| roadmap]] wiki page for the current modRana roadmap. In short, the main item on the current roadmap is a new Qt based GUI, in addition to the current GTK based one.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | == Supported devices ==
| + | |
| - | === Maemo 5 @ N900 ===
| + | |
| - | ModRana is conveniently available directly from the location&navigation category in Extras-Devel.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | === MeeGo 1.2 @ N9,N950 ===
| + | |
| - | Porting to Harmattan is a work in progress - see the [[modRana_Roadmap| roadmap]] for more info. It is already possible to run modRana with the currently available GTK GUI but it should be much more usable once the Qt based GUI is in a usable state.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | === SHR @ OpenMoko Neo FreeRunner ===
| + | |
| - | ModRana also runs on this good-old open hardware smartphone, get packages from the [http://modrana.org/trac/wiki/SystemDownloadEN#shr| Neo download section].
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | === Manual installation ===
| + | |
| - | First make sure you have the core dependencies:
| + | |
| - | * Python 2.5+
| + | |
| - | * GTK
| + | |
| - | * CAIRO
| + | |
| - | * PyGTK
| + | |
| - | There are also some optional dependencies that modRana will use if available:
| + | |
| - | * espeak - for voice output
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Then download the [http://modrana.org/trac/wiki/SystemDownloadEN#tarball| tarball], unpack it somewhere and run the '''modrana.py''' file.
| + | |
| - | You can make modRana use a specific device module by suppliing a command line argument:
| + | |
| - | * neo - modRana will use the Neo FreeRunner device module
| + | |
| - | * n900 - modRana will use the N900 device module
| + | |
| - | * android_chroot - modRana will use the device module for Android chroot
| + | |
