Considering that FreeBS positions itself 'primrily' as a _server_ OS, I would suggest that it is 'unlikely'. *I*, for one, would hope that porting to the 'Rasberry Pi' has higher priority. Now, if "somebody" in the 'Vivaldi' community wants to gather up _all_ the relevant 'technical data' for configuring/accessing/programming *ALL* the included hardware, and -publish- it in one EASILY ACCESSIBLE place, that would be a good start. If such a "somebody" were to _also_ provide 'funding' for a porting project, that would undoubtedly move such a project to a high position on the 'to do' list'. Otherwise, "Skippy", you, -YOURSELF-. will need to find a 'guru' with the appropriate knowledge/skills *and* "enough interest' in the project to tackle it. Good Luck.
