Welcome to the Minimo Forum.
The Minimo Project is focused on code-size and runtime footprint reduction, and porting to small consumer devices. There are two public releases of Minimo, one for Windows CE and there is for the GPE Linux environment. Others may follow. This forum has been set up to support users running the Minimo CE and Minimo Linux builds.

Please when posting please indicate which you are using.
Regards,
Doug Turner

Re: Welcome to the Minimo Forum.
Doug, if you would be so kind, edit your post; the link has a period on the end that is giving a 404 at mozilla.org.
Thanks!

I'm thrilled to see the promise of a decent browser for the Pocket PC, finally... after all these years. I've been missing one for a long time.
The CE version needs a few things to make it a viable solution for me, though (although I'm sure that suggesting bells and whistles is premature), namely full VGA awareness and portrait/landscape awareness to mention just a few things. I can see it now... surfing merrily along in portrait VGA on my Fujitsu Siemens. Darn near brings a tear to the eye.
I'm none too crazy about having the menubar slide to the bottom of the screen either, but maybe that's just me... keeping the controls on top where they usually are means you can find them instinctively. Still, minor quibble.

Hmm. Will the effords of this project (at least partly) flow back into Firefox development itself? A general reduction of old code fragments and optimization would be nice there, too.

I take it this doesn't work with proxies, yet.
When I bring it up, I get 'can't connect to network'. Clicking ok on that brings me to a blank screen. Double tapping does nothing.
Is this normal behavior?
Thanks,

[edit]
After returning to the frontpage without closing minimo I found several 'can't connect errors'. After clicking each of them in succession I was able to click on the minimo icon (I use Wisbar Advance 2) and see the front page. Still can't connect via proxy, but at least I was able to look at the interface and ensure the double tap worked.

where can i download minimo
Hi all,
Where can I download minimo? Do I need to download the firefox source code and extract the minimo part or is there a package for minimo seperately? I am planning on cross compiling minimo for linux based devices such as the Motorola a780. I cannot use OpenEmbedded and bitbake due to some reason. I want to download minimo package, configure it and compile it using a specific tool chain. Any suggestions?
thanks
Rohit

I love that you guys are working on a ppc solution, I´m in need of a good ppc browser! I just wish I could help in some way!
Firefox and thunderbird are great, now only waiting for minimo and lightning (or rather TB syncronization for ppc)

Motorola Q
Minimo will not load on a Motorola Q phone. Perhaps this is because Minimo requires a touch screen and the Q uses a thumbwheel to navigate. It would be very useful to be able to run Minimo on this device.

This post maybe a little OT, but I don't like forum explosions of redundant threads and - as a bonus - this is a place of high visibility - I think...
The point is that I don't understand the way the progress of Minimo development. I know Doug is the lead developer, I know Marcio is a major contributor with some other guys - sorry if I don't mention you - but what the big picture? Is there a mailing list for coordination purpose?
I subscribed dev.apps.minimo but the traffic rate is low.
I am a bit confuse.
I have to sorry another time, for my *newbie-ty*
