Hi I successfully managed to get maemo-mapper run on scratch box. I'd like to share this experience so that it is useful to others. Any suggestion and comment are welcomed, too. First, install Maemo SDK VMWare Appliance, 0.8 (http://maemovmware.garage.maemo.org/). start the virtual machine. add to /scratchbox/users/maemo/targets/DIABLO_X86/etc/apt/sources.list deb http://repository.maemo.org/extras/ chinook free deb-src http://repository.maemo.org/extras/ chinook free click the maemo scratchbox Environment icon on desktop. sbox-DIABLO_x86>apt-get update sbox-DIABLO_x86>af-sb-init.sh start (Opening a new window seems very slow but it will show up correctly if given enough time) sbox-DIABLO_x86>apt-get install maemo-mapper (this is the trick to install an application hosted in repository. Using maemo-mapper as an example, there are many releases, I do not know which one to use. I let the apt-get to select the correct one and resolve the dependency) sbox-DIABLO_x86>run-standalone.sh /usr/bin/maemo-mapper (remember opening new window is slow. When maemo-mapper is used first time, it will open several dialogs for configuration. The start process will be slow.
I am trying to use the maemo-mapper in scratchbox to download map and transfer them to tablet. I tried my own SDK installation instead of VMWare appliance with the above procedure. The maemo-mapper started properly. But it can not download map. -jason jason zhang wrote: > Hi, all > I installed maemo mapper to my tablet. It is too difficult to > pre-fetch big map.
