Has anyone ever attempted to install Slitaz on a tablet? If so, how successful was it?

Aren't most tablets ARM based? We'd need an ARM version of SliTaz before it will work on most tablets.

Ah; ok

Nice, didn't even know about that. With touchscreen support and the python driven html desktop, it could be pretty awesome

It has been discussed here http://forum.slitaz.org/topic/slitaz-arm#post-7985 about 1 year ago.

Have no idea if it has moved since then....

Well, I have SliTaz up and running on my tablet, BUT: ... it's a WeTab, which is x386 (atom) based.
Touch support works well (though multitouch doesn't), sound, WiFi, 3G, even the CrystalHD support for youtube or other supported videos using MPlayer.
I didn't find a perfect solution yet, though. Only Midori and Opera Mobile deliver a good touch-scrolling feeling, firefox is quite unhandy. The use of xvkbd as onboard keyboard works well (with an icon and a small script to turn it on/off, no auto), but firefox starts suggesting URLs all the time resulting in having to tap the key twice, which is annoying.
Opera mobile feels very well but doesn't support flash; Midori is best but crashes sometimes (esp. when I try to answer mails in my webmailer).
If those could be solved... perfect!
