Hi there.. So you want to install MeeGo 1.1 for netbooks inside your VirtualBox VM but you cant get it running?
Hm.. me neither but i find a solution.. so..
Follow the guide for MeeGo 1.0 for Netbooks but do the following that i did:
1) DO NOT rename the meego-netbook-ia32-1.1.img file to .iso as the previous guide told to you.
VirtualBox can use .img files.
2) If you are unnable to do scp part (scp user@host:~/Downloads/libglx.so /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions), just do inside meego VM:
# zypper install wget
# wget http://wiki.meego.com/images/Libglx.so.gz
# gunzip Libglx.so.gz
# mv Libglx.so libglx.so
# mv libglx.so /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions
So.. you can boot your vm but you are unable to see any GUI?
DO NOT try startx. it is not supported by Meego.
instead, type
# uxlaunch
and you will see the perfect meego GUI environment 🙂
