Hi Mike, looks real nice, I'll have to try it when I find my brain!

I have an old ver of Manjaro and Bridge which has a ton of junk in it.
Seems like fun...

Hi folks,

I'm sending this to let you know that I'm working on the virtual machines.

The latest Maui development snapshot works on both VirtualBox and qemu-kvm using the framebuffer. Of course the compositor doesn't have very good performance ontop of the framebuffer but it's decent.

Latest build of the mesa-full-wayland patch also has fixes for llvmpipe which is now working with Wayland compositors.
This might be useful for VMware which has the vmwgfx driver although I havent tested it yet.

Stay tuned!

I had Hawaii working on Archbang few months ago, there wasn't much to see back then. but I messed up that installation, so I don't know what Hawaii is like recently. The last pre-alpha image of Maui gave me a segfault at line 10 when trying to run, but I think they will release a new alpha build soon as Phoronix had an article that Hawaii has been successfully ported to Weston compositor. They have some pics and a couple videos (though they are a bit dated) at the Maui G+ community.

The eventual desktop will be something like the mockups shown here, I think.

Seems Gnome 2 ish in its double panel design.

Any news on Maui-project ? I have it working good in Bridge64 linux, still waiting for the installable iso !

Looks Ugly like Gnome 2 and no suport for Ubuntu. I will have to pass on this.
