@ gibberoids:

Listen, the problem isn't that I personally am offended. Or very many people are being offended.

But what if one person is offended, and they choose not to support Dingoo Linux. Why would you want that to happen?

When you are designing a product name, or logo, or anything, and you are putting it into an open community, you want to be as positive as possible.

Perhaps we can call it Pingoo (like Pingu) , after that adorable penguin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pingu)

if you're not intelligent enough to realise there is obviously no racial slur insinuated with the name of dingoos new OS then i suggest you stick with the stock OS and stfu.

2009-06-24T21:26:06.407+02:00

First of all i can only say THANKS. Thanks for all your work than means much for all Dingoo users. About the name i´d like "DIX!" or "LINGOO". You´re great man!

I like how "Booboo Linux" sounds.

2009-06-24T20:39:23.540+02:00

BooBoo, shoot me an email (consequence9@gmail.com) & we'll (Dingoo-Scene) setup a poll for the community to vote on a name. Just include what options you'd find acceptable & we'll get on it. I can also work with you to design a logo/splash/bootscreen once a name is chosen. It's the least I can do, and if you ever need anything else don't hesitate to let me know! =D

2009-06-24T18:07:41.699+02:00

And what about the Gemei?
Would we call it "GemOS"
or would we call it "GemLin" :P
or "Gemei Linux" or "OpenGemei" or "Dingei" combining Linux for DINGOO and for GEMEI.

Personnally i Like GemOS very much. Does not sound too much Gemei an is it bit like a Gem Stone :P
Already thinking of an logo :P

2009-06-24T16:45:24.980+02:00

Just ran to the next electro shop and got a SD-Card.
Ready! ;)

Considering the name, my faves so far are "DingOS" or "LingOS".

Can you tell me if dual-boot will be possible between Linux and the modified firmware from Team Dingoo as well? (sorry if that sounds stupid, but i my knowledge in hardware issues is near zero)

I am sorry that I said it offended me. I just thi...

2009-06-24T15:57:47.387+02:00

I am sorry that I said it offended me.

I just think that an asian import being called Lin-"Gooks" is pretty offensive, and why would you want to offend would be contributers?

I personally like DinGNU and Lingoo the best. Anything related to ubuntu sounds silly to me.

Just my 2 cents, sorry I caused a controversy.

2009-06-24T14:05:18.570+02:00

DingOS sounds suspiciously close to "Dingus" - google it:)

I still say Booboo Linux, but if Booboo would rather not, what about Yogi Linux? This is on the basis that: 1. Yogi Bear is Booboo's closest pal (and so, we can all laugh at the in joke in years to come) and 2. Booboo is our Guru en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yogi !

LingooX seems fine, just think off gp32X ^^

2009-06-24T10:17:28.259+02:00

If we want to target a larger audience than only the computer freaks, we should not refer to Linux in the name at all... And if we want to avoid being pinned to the Dingoo device (its name is copyrighted), we should not refer to Dingoo neither. So maybe we should just choose a good sounding name that can stand next to DS, PSP, Wii, XBox, iPOD....

Well, if you insist on using Linux or Dingoo in the name, I would suggest Dix (Dingoo Linux) or Fux (Fun Linux). Nothing offensive about those names, I guess.

2009-06-24T04:18:34.729+02:00

I personally think that Lingoo has a nice ring to it.

Also, Thanks so much for all the work and hours you've put into this, I'm sure everyone here finds your work amazingly helpful.

Oh and someone asked for a better music player, someone is working on a port of Gmu to Dingoo Linux, so that should have you covered(more info on the forums, look in the intro section).

I would't be bothered, it's like said not mean to be offensive in anyway.
Lingoo-X sounds very fine to me...

Great update. I cant wait for X760+ Linux.

About the name: Valinux (Valencia/Spain, Booboo's place), jZinux, DingTux, Ignux (Ignacio+Linux), oh, I going beyond now, eh? :)

2009-06-23T23:35:49.647+02:00

I'm italian, so I can't understand the issue with asian, anyway I think "Lingoo" wouldn't be bad. But I have my own suggestion that would probabilly please Stallman: "DinGNU"... in the end even if we will use the linux kernel most of the work will be done using GNU tools (see gcc).

2009-06-23T22:59:50.189+02:00

Great work. I am not a linux guy myself so I don't fully know all that this will bring, but I assume it will open the Dingoo up a whole bunch. As well, if it brings about a better music player...fantastic!

Regarding the name, how about simply "Lingoo"??

I like Simply Lingoo

2009-06-23T22:38:06.167+02:00

i think you should leave the name as is. You never meant it to offend anyone, and if they find it offensive, they have a back button on their browsers.
