In the site, community-x86 mention Android, just a few months after creating a patch that lets Android running on the x86 platform, they are aware of these findings can be developed further. This group then decided to further develop the basic code that they find in order to support other x86 platforms and to hosting on their servers.

These findings could also work on the Lenovo ThinkPad x61 tablet. All of the above devices is known to run in native resolution (800x480 or 1024x600) through the i915 driver, which all run on Linux Kernel 2.6.29 with kernel mode-setting (KMS) enabled.
