Sorry to dig this up, but i'm trying to compile litecoind in my Raspberrypi but with no success. Can anyone give me some pointers? I have debian, but i can't get the damn thing to install.
Thanks.

It's "-O3", not "-03".
oh my thanks!

how did you manage to compile cpuminer on raspberry pi. i am stuck with these errors:

Well that is a bit depressing, but then again, what did we really expect? :-)
I just got a raspberrypi. I ran cpuminer on it and got:
0.2 khash/s... yay!!! lol

I really want one but the reseller here in the US is out already , it just got released today god
Everywhere was out of them for ages
but I have finally got to order one

Is that a rhetorical question? 
If it is not, the answer is yes, cpuminer should work on pretty much all Linux distros.
It even works on Solaris/SPARC, I think that's enough said.
I've got a couple of UltraSparc 5 boxes. Might be worth a giggle if I can get them running.If it is not, the answer is yes, cpuminer should work on pretty much all Linux distros.

Do any of the current LTC miners work with Fedora, Debian and ArchLinux?

On RPi's website FAQ...
What Linux distros will be supported at launch?
Fedora, Debian and ArchLinux will be supported from the start. We hope to see support from other distros later. (Because of issues with newer releases of Ubuntu and the ARM processor we are using, Ubuntu can’t commit to support Raspberry Pi at the moment.) You will be able to download distro images from us as soon as the Raspberry Pi is released, and we will also be selling pre-loaded SD cards shortly after release.

I bet nothing that it'll be less than 1khash/secs.
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison
Model Mhash/s Mhash/J Mhash/s/$ ACP [W] Clock Version Comment
ARM 0.187 ? ? ? 1200 MHz cpuminer Seagate Dockstar ArchLinux
And that's on BTC I think which would have a lot lower mining efficiency compared to LTC.
I bet nothing that it'll be less than 1khash/secs.
I have a PI coming as well but mines going to be used more as a media receiver.
Just ordered a Raspberry Pi to goof off with!
I'm guessing it does around 15-25Mhash/s. =3
For litecoin mining? uh no 
I'm guessing it does around 15-25Mhash/s. =3 (Bitcoin mining)
Interested in seeing the hash rate of this thing, thinking of buying one eventually may as well put it to good use.
The announcement for Raspberry Pi's has been made, and the waiting lists for orders are open.
Kool can't wait for the hash-rate to be announced if it's worth it I'll get a 'farm' of them to go with my ASIC/FPGA farm I'm building
At the least I could use one of these low power RaspberryPi to run the boards
