Hi all,

i want to make an application running on a normal desktop computer to
communicate with maemo. Has anyone done something similar, are there
any sources, tutorial available that could help me?

Can i do this using D-BUS or i have to do it through normal unix
sockets? I ve read about D-BUS and everywhere says that it is created
for applications placed in the same computer. All the sample code i
can find is about communication on a single computer, but in the site
of d-bus it says that it can also be used for application that are not
in the same machine.

You can do D-Bus over TCP, but it's not advised.  You'd be better
creating your own protocol, or re-using an existing one.
