Newbee need direction
Hello Im a newbee. And would love some help to get in the right direction. I have looked in to pascal(not very useful but good fun) and java(really basic) when I was in school but that was a few years ago. Im most intrested in developing small useful application for the freerunner and as a sideproject will look in to making apps for the Iphone but that is a side project since I dont have a Iphone yet and its a diffrent story. Should I start with the developers guide on the openmoko.org or go and buy a book? Any learn to sites on the web? What lanugare should I start with? Does it matter what OS im using on my computer? Im using Ubuntu 8.10. Im so close to give it up now :-(. I have read http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Openmoko_developer_guide but its many roads and I seem to get lost or stuck every where I go. /Robin Häggqvist Robin recommends: http://openoffice.org * http://gimp.org * http://avast.com * http://gmail.com * http://cdburnerxp.se * http://7-zip.org * http://realvnc.com/ or http://www.ubuntu-se.org/ ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Im most intrested in developing small useful application for the freerunner I suggest starting by describing your proposed application here. I'm sure people will make comments and suggestions that will allow you to develop the specification and design. What lanugare should I start with? Probably C or Python - but you don't necessarily need to worry about that yet anyway.

Re: Newbee need direction
Hello Robin and Openmoko community: My name is Juan Aranda, and I'm a OM newbie too. There shouldn't be any problems with your Ubuntu 8.10 distribution. I'm using the Toolchain (http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Toolchain). It tells you what packages you need to install, how to set it up, etc. Then you should look back into the link from your previous e-mail (by the way, thanks for that link it helped a lot ;) ): http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Development_with_Eclipse. If you need more help feel free to contact me. Juan Aranda On Wed, 2009-01-07 at 11:55 +0100, Robin Häggqvist wrote: Hello Im a newbee. And would love some help to get in the right direction.
