Myself and a couple others are thinking of trying to port Gentoo Linux to phone hardware. The Nexus 5 seems to be a decent candidate because its hardware is relatively recent with nice specifications, it is on sale for $199.99 and it appears to have open source drivers available for most of its components (although not all are mainline currently). I need to know the answer to the subject question before I pull the trigger on this (as the money for this would be coming out of my pocket). If the answer is no, then I will need to find another phone. --RRHJrhVqa6GCgjPjMG72PrD5325sOroiK Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJWURL0AAoJECDuEZm+6ExkaToQAIEgNXkHkdB1A+uRdt0ciD0+ E1Qg1MjhDoov4qpozOQ8U7jqAHsjbmQwdmtMuslwpdYCPtREbZFtPXUwMrjgMkHy 814l8shputYqdqal15w0sCBo55rdYEXSyNXO3lbeUfsk3YgTglnexTL6FOwUxtD7 ecP2NXvtTOKnB7fEHjvmMav7VO4q+142F0KBaQ5L+wHYA76Qc3wGGOklPYvR/U23 Sjx+DDEix0I5fUjzYhvQ6kwwb3bNPDEnv++SpHUY4bP7OS+10xxUq5jhlWvzmbP6 B8VUoytEql7yLcRAOMkNRxXA7eeF/vObqaKmyapjCbohLxAfJa3sy8gzCFnZ3S+n 0SQihm5UOq6fhzbvDlhncupzdQIwdlh89197UP8djVCcnV4ASIt8PMflXyS6MK9X oGaqdrKvBsqeHQRFYcPMigI6Q1n/xxzjNs0zXIwjCTYkL5Hivk4cb6UzniLMJdCx y3N8CPPKs2FE9OJPs6PVImHUFGRQiMC5QZvIVrCcGtxqh6ENIdpByzSuQvnzYAbV jboYm7kj43rpugJ7JKs1Y/o/MrjoOyGkt13zH6gMJ/i7tBFSxyUnkK+7Fb5WtUpj zzbgA6XiZxZCCMz2ILK9ZuOYXtgw1U1fFSqjZY3W04XWOYjRaEO1+1Jieu/Nnmo+ J0N9dVlPPqzj3hmOBtUn =lVx5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --RRHJrhVqa6GCgjPjMG72PrD5325sOroiK--
