You are not the only person in the thread, the process explained at the beggining doesnt work anymore and its more complicated. The explanation was to help people that cant run the application.

Think twice before posting duhs

Because porting something from a VM language like Java to native code is simply not an easy task.

Yes, there's A LOT more devs for Android nowadays than for N900.

Porting a java application for Google's java-like language is really simple, there exists even applications that do the work for you. So yes, in this case it's easier to port the app to Android than to N900.

I got FrostWire to work as well but instead of Sun's Java I used Icedtea6 (based on OpenJDK) from the repos.

1. Install icedtea6 from repos via App Manager.

Then the rest is the same as lq_sunshine's steps.

2. Download the frostwire tarball
from http://www.frostwire.com/?id=downloads and extract it to a folder like /home/user/Mydocs/

Code:
tar -xvzf /YOUR_DOWNLOAD_FOLDER_PATH/frostwire-X.XX.X.noarch.tar.gz -C /home/user/Mydocs/

3. Launch it with

Code:
java -jar /home/user/Mydocs/frostwire-X.XX.X.noarch/FrostWire.jar

(note thate your Frostwire folder or archive name may be a different one, replace X.XX.X with current frostwire version number)

Dont know which is faster as I havent tried Sun Java, but I think the Sun version has to be licensed otherwise it expires in 90 days.
I could be wrong but read it in another thread.
