Unrelated; scdataviz is the SemiConductor Data Visualization program. (It can be used for more than that, but that's what I wrote it for).

Probably not generally useful, but I find it nice. :)

Are you using software or hardware rendering?

In general, the machine you run sbox on will be faster than the N900. Usually, much faster.

If you have proper graphics acceleration it should work OK with most graphics cards. Even Intel.

According to this page the Debian port runs on ARMEL. The biggest problem I foresee is making use of hardware OpenGL ES instead of OpenGL.

You can consider me officially working on a wallpaper management application as of this evening, for whatever it's worth...

Re: Who is working on Apps for the N900
 

@qgil, I think there should be a section on downloads of a coming soon area, instead of having noobs search around extras-testing etc to see what is on the way. Everyone is app-sh*t (Get it like ape-sh*t) right now for apps, and an easy to access list of apps on the way would do a lot of people (bloggers etc) who say the n900 doesn't have any apps.

I'm working on virtual keyboards and portrait mode desktop

Sweet, need any design done? I really want those two features, so if there is anyway I can help let me know.

Re: Who is working on Apps for the N900
 

I have designs/layouts in mind for both. I just got my environment set up this week so hopefully I can at least get something running this weekend.

Keyboard layout is something like this. Ignore the color since this is something quick I laid out in Visual Studio.

Interesting idea. Two thoughts: how to avoid confusion, how to avoid the user installing beta-quality stuff and how to deal with stuff which may never leave -testing.
