You will need to build this library, make a ext3 partition, put 1.4.5 on it, put a copy of libx11fb.so in / inside that partition; outside the chroot, run x11fbd -w 320 -h 480, inside the chroot, run the following script:

Code:

export LD_PRELOAD=/libx11fb.so



rm -f /var/run/dbus/pid

dbus-daemon --system --fork

dbus-daemon --session --fork



sleep 1



hidd &

java-serviceboot start &

luna-prefs-service &

BrowserServer &

PmNetConfigManager &

nappmgr &

fileindexer &

extractfs -f /var/luna/data/extractfs &



sleep 3



LunaSysService &

LunaSysMgr &

Boot takes around 80 seconds.

Note that I did this in virtually four days and nearly a year ago. I did it because after that webos on HTC fake news story from XDADevs I wanted to have something to be able to laugh in their faces, but after demoing it on Dublin Meego summit and running it for a while I mostly forgot about the entire thing (and actually never did the laugh in their faces part :P ;) ).

Maybe on the N950 with MT and faster graphics it has more sense.

Hi javispedro,
can you make a more detail description on how to do the
chroot.
I get many errors on starting the webos processes
(like "can not bind to socket")
And are all files within the webos doctor file?
The /var/luna/data/extractfs for example does not exists
in my webos.tar

Re: Palm WebOS on N900

Glad to see someone more trying to get it up and running.

Re: Palm WebOS on N900

Maybe now with webOS going open source, we will have interesting staff for porting webOS to n900 ?

Re: Palm WebOS on N900

Maybe source staff will help preenv to get improve!!! (MAYBE)

Re: Palm WebOS on N900

I too am very interested to see what useful goodies can be picked out of WebOS.

Re: Palm WebOS on N900

I successfully built the library and I am trying to make a chroot similar to the easy debian one

I have no clue regarding compilation.... :o

Re: Palm WebOS on N900

i copied x11fbd to /home and chmod 755 it. But when I try to execute it it gives syntax error at line 1 - "(" unexpected. The same executable runs fine in ubuntu.

EDIT: Maybe it's not compiled for Arm but for x86 ...
