Novell is going to support MeeGo, the Moblin-derived Intel-Nokia Linux operating system for netbooks. It says it expects SUSE MeeGo to be pre-installed on a variety of devices from OEMs in the next 12 months. Whether Novell remains alive long enough to see the stuff delivered remains to be seen. ODMs, including Samsung and MSI, have shipped netbook and mobile devices powered by SUSE Moblin. A contributor to the Moblin project, Novell is now also a key participant in the development of MeeGo and has set up a Novell OpenLabs in Taiwan, in conjunction with the local government.
