Nokia N800 · OMAP2420
ARMv6 target support with the original display, touchscreen and peripheral hardware brought forward onto a modern Linux base.
Nokia N800 revival project
N8x0sModern Linux for classic hardware
A clean, reproducible Linux platform for the Nokia N800 Internet Tablet — built with current open-source components, Yocto/OpenEmbedded and a QEMU-based development environment.

A modern stack for a 2007 tablet.
The goal is not to reproduce the historical Maemo environment. N8x0s treats the N800 as a small ARM/Linux computer and gives it a current, understandable software stack.
Yocto / OpenEmbedded
Reproducible system images, package feeds and project-owned recipes keep the software environment explicit and rebuildable.
QEMU-first workflow
The N800 machine model is extended where necessary so display, input, audio and networking can be developed without constant access to the physical tablet.
Optional software, kept outside the base system.
Diagnostics, development tools, applications and games are distributed as IPK packages.
