Hello together,
I just want to know if it is TECHNICALLY possible to port Sailfish OS to Geeksphone Revolution.
This article says that it is possible to port it to devices with an ARMv7 heart and that are supported to run CyanogenMod 10.1.x
My Geeksphone Revolution has an intel heart (Z2560, Atom 1,6 Ghz dualcore) and supports Cyanogen Mod 11: So, is it possible to port Sailfish OS (v1.1.2.16, Update 11, 25th February) to a device with an intel cpu?
Thank you for your answer(s) :-)
I second this. I would love to have sailfish on my Revolution. Only issue is there isn't a lot of support for the device

Bada3.0 ( 2015-03-16 23:37:13 +0200 )editGenerally speaking, question about porting SailfishOS to other devices, doesn't belong here on TJC. There are a few other forums where there is plenty of discussion about porting SFOS to different devices.
I would suggest either starting a thread on talk.maemo.org or better still, contacting the developer/s of Geeksphone (which I've never heard of), put simply your question doesn't belong here on TJC. Please consider closing your question and help keep TJC, tidy. Just my opinion.
Regards,

But OK, maybe I also should contact the developers at geeksphone about my plans.
I thought that I could find here more people who can help me with that question.
Nevertheless just gimme some more time - If I don't get an answer until tomorrow I will surely close that thread :-(
