Hi Ryan, I understand where you're coming from. Right now the process
of getting up and running developing for the Neo1973 isn't
straight-forward - especially for a new coder.
This is for a bunch of reasons, one of which is that the actual
software isn't released yet, but will be in the near
For programming, you'll need to start to get up and running with C++.
That's a fairly daunting task, but if you want to do real programming
for the Neo, you'll need to know how to program in C++, or possibly
Python.
With regards to themes - not sure how they'll be configured, though
probably
Ryan - Someone suggested getting VMWare setting up a Ubuntu VM ...
this is a -great- suggestion since you're running OSX, -if- you have
an Intel-Mac. If you have a PPC-Mac, then this is not an option
(AFAIK), and you'll need to either (1) install Linux on another hard
drive / partition
VMWare does not support OS X.
Can you be more specific about Ubuntu, what I am supposed to get
exactly.
I've heard of C++, what is the best way to get started?
What is Python?
For my mockups, should I just use the example pics from the press
release?
Thanks,
ryan

VMWare does not support OS X.
They have a beta for Intel-Mac OSX. Nothing for PPC Mac though.
Expect a full release this summer, with all the great features of
their other VM players.

Ubuntu is a Linux
Woah! That's a lot of information. Let me try to peice it together:
I have both a PPC and an Intel-Mac, Do I just download the Linux
VMWare? It doesn't seem to have support for Os X.
What is OE/BB?
Are you saying i need to program in a Linux environment?
Thanks,

You download a VMWare beta fusion for Intel-Mac:

Then you download an Ubuntu ISO or a VMWare Ubuntu application:
You didn't have to call me a noobjk (im not a fan of nerd speak).
Get used to it ;)
Thanks so much, that is really what I was looking for. By running
Linux, I will be prepared when someone releases an OpenMoko
programming suite, right?
In theory, yes, by running Linux you'll be
What is Python?
A scripting language. Much like perl, or bash/sh/csh/tcsh scripts -
or AppleScipt if you've done that. Or MATLAB.
That's great ! I didn't know there was python involved in openmoko... What
parts? The networking one? (twisted?)
You can also use Parallels Desktop for OS X at www.parallels.com.
Works like a charm for me.

Parallels isn't free, yes? The VMware fusion beta currently is ...
of course, it's beta so its utility might not be that great; should
be $99 once it's released (maybe beta testers can get a discount? I
don't know). I actually use Parallels right now, though I need to
try out the VMware
Parallels is $79, sometimes they run offers at $49. Money well spent
IMO. It runs very well and increases my productivity greatly because
I can run multiple OSes quickly and reliably.
I believe they will shortly release a tool to convert with VMware images.
I assume VMware will be a good option

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I'd like to check it out,

possibly write a recipe for setting up in this.
Simplest: Setup the VM with Ubuntu 6.10; follow instructions on
OpenMoko wiki. I don't think a special script will be very useful
here since there isn't much (if
Parallels is a virtualization environment. Once installed it gives
you an black DOS screen in a OS X window, saying Please insert boot disk.
From there on it behaves like any PC so you can install any x86 OS

I have not yet tried to set up OE, but since you'll probably install

Absolutely. There have been several discussions on this, and there
are efforts underway to create appropriate projects. I believe there
will be Java ME as well as Java SE ports. I personally will be
involved in seeing the Java ME port along. Stay tuned.
