How do you modify tiny core linux into a digital photo frame os?
« on: June 11, 2010, 02:00:54 AM »
I hope the experts in here can be kind enough to tell me if it is possible to modify tiny core into a digital photo frame os?

The one with the slide show?

More than likely not possible. The photoframe would be needing an x86 compatible CPU, whereas it's probably got an ARM based CPU.

Curious though. Why?

If you build one from a laptop, or it is x86 already, sure. All it needs is an image viewer with a slideshow function, and a set of pics ;)
