Looking for a linux version for an ARM CPU

[Greenwizard88]

I'm thinking about getting a few of these laptops (http://cgi.ebay.com/New-7-mini-Netbook-Notebook-WIFI-Windows-2GB-HD_W0QQitemZ180434595215QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_Netb ooks?hash=item2a02bd6d8f)off of ebay and turning them into digital photo frames for christmas gifts.

The thing is, they use an ARM processor, and I don't know of any light-weight linux distributions that I could quickly and easily use to turn into a picture frame OS.

Ubuntu comes with an ARM version. You can find Linux images for ARM architectures here (http://www.arm.com/products/os/linux_download.html).

I don't think Ubuntu would run on that computer.
Put ChromeOS on it, ese! That computer is exactly what Chrome was made for.

Debian.

Debian.

Thank you, this was exactly what I was looking for!

If it will run Debian, it will run Ubuntu. They're not that different.

I would avoid them.
Look at the hardware, Arm 266, 128mb RAM...?
Capable of running a file server, but that's about it.

I would demand a refund for not using WinCE.

Give maemo.org a try. It might run well on that hardware.
