I just changed all my com.nokia to something different, use the full osso service name for X-Osso-Service and osso_initialize() and it works, too. It's so easy if you know how, just specify the full osso service name everywhere and it works from the stretch.
So in total I find the current situation very bad: - The Maemo 4.0 Tutorial is wrong, it must be "osso_context = osso_initialize( "org.maemo.example_libosso", "0.0.1", TRUE, NULL);" instead of "osso_context = osso_initialize( "example_libosso", "0.0.1", TRUE, NULL);", otherwise this example will simply not work. - The documentation of osso_initialize() is wrong/misleading. - The maemopad example is misleading: It works, but only as long as you don't change the "com.nokia" to something different, otherwise it stopps working and you simply don't know why. This issue has cost me days and I was only one inch away from giving up completely.
