Looks like Ubuntu are aiming at the vm hosting platform as well http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition/jeos

Yes, I may have mentioned JeOS here. It's been out for about a year

Is it possible to install Syllable on bootable SD card?

Depends

If it is connected through an IDE interface, it should work just 
like a hard disk

If it is connected through a USB interface, like on the Asus EeePC 
for example, you may hit bugs in our USB support

Assuming that interface is bootable on the computer in question, 
or course.

Yes, that, too

In any case, if you want to try you need our development build

But that currently has a nasty binary incompatibility, so if you 
get it installed, you may not be able to run some other software

The Dutch website of Software Freedom Day is now running on Syllable 
Server and Cheyenne:

http://softwarefreedom.nl/

It was already made with my REBOL CMS

Page loads nice and quick.

Thanks. We made sure it would by having static pages, but on the 
other hand, the connection is not overly powerful at 10 Mb/s

The server is just a P3 650 MHz with 128 MB memory and an old 8 GB 
disk

It's running Cheyenne, possibly with QuarterMaster, FTP and an SSH 
server

If anyone here wants a test account on it, let me know

Very cool Kaj.

Thanks

It's taken a long time this time, but we released Syllable Desktop 
0.6.6

Many bugs were fixed, including several regressions from earlier 
releases. The window decorators don't destabilise the system anymore. 
The installation procedure is greatly enhanced with options to fix 
hardware support problems. The native web browser is replaced with 
Webster, based on a newer version of the WebKit engine. Many enhancements 
were made to standards support, leading, among others, to the ability 
to run QEmu - so now you can run virtual machines. The documentation 
was improved and several translations were added. Read more in the 
full release notes: http://downloads.syllable.org/Syllable/i586/systems/Desktop/0.6.6/README-SyllableDesktop-0.6.6.txt
ISO CD images, (VMware) emulator images, an upgrade pack and documentation 
are available from the download page: http://web.syllable.org/pages/get-Syllable.html
Extra software is available here: http://web.syllable.org/Syllable/downloads.html

Here's the announcement on OSNews:

Is running in VirtualBox tested?

Yes. We have some conflicting reports about it, but it should work, 
using the boot entry we supply for it

On the other hand, VirtualBox is weird. VMware and QEmu often give 
better results

Maxim, the OpenGL situation in DirectFB is still quite unclear

DirectFB 2, with OpenGL support, still seems to be just a plan

There's an old OpenGL extension that was revived a year ago and then 
again not updated. If it works, it probably only supports hardware 
acceleration on one old video chip

So it looks like for some time to come, you will still need X11 for 
hardware accelerated OpenGL

ok

Software OpenGL should be possible on SDL, though, for testing or 
low speed requirements

I am connected running AltME on Syllable Server now

eh???  syllable server has a gui?

It has now :-)

I ported Nix as extra package manager and used that to install X11

Can it run Hylafax ?

Sure, if you compile it

I don' t think it' s in Nix

And rebol 2?

Been included with Syllable Server since the beginning, a few years 
now

cheyenne I guess is okay?

With X11 you could also run View now, but the X11 installation process 
is currently a lot of work

Using Cheyenne to run tens of websites here, including Try REBOL

Excellent news Kaj!

I really wish, I had more time, so I could also try this out. Well, 
hopefully some day, I'll see this in action.

Thanks!

Got R3 running through the host build on both Syllable Desktop and 
Syllable Server

Desktop is the wiley one, because it isn't supposed to work at all 
:-)
