Description

Welcome to the Maemo Leste wiki; Maemo Leste continues the legacy of Maemo (Fremantle). We aim to provide a free Maemo experience on mobile phones and tablets like the Nokia N900, Motorola Droid 4, Allwinner Tablets and more.

You can find us on freenode, channel #maemo-leste.

Maemo Leste is based on Devuan Ascii (Debian Stretch) and all the "supported" devices ship with recent Linux (mainline-based) kernels.

The project is currently not usable as a daily driver for your device. Maemo Leste is currently in development phase and we are actively searching for developers. For some devices, we have development images available, such as the N900.

So far we have set up Devuan/Debian repositories for our packages, with builds for armel, armhf and amd64. We have FOSS replacements for some closed Maemo packages, further building on the Maemo community efforts to replace all closed bits by open software.
